What’s Emme Rylan Doing While Lulu’s in a Coma on ‘General Hospital’?

Emme Rylan keeps busy while her alter-ego Lulu Spencer is still in a coma on General Hospital. It might not be time for Lulu to wake up just yet on the ABC sudser. But Emme is living her best life in the meantime. Check out what the fan-fave is up to these days while Lulu remains off-screen.

Emme Rylan Was a Daytime Vet — Long Before Her GH Gig

Emme Rylan is famous for the role of fan-favorite Lulu Spencer on GH. However, she got her start in daytime TV as Lizzie Spaulding on the soap Guiding Light in 2006.

Later, she grew her fanbase when she took on the part of Abby Newman on the popular sudser The Young and the Restless in 2010. Emme played Abby on Y&R until 2013, when she joined General Hospital and made the character of Lulu Spencer her own.

Aside from soaps, she also has several films under her belt, such as Bring it on: All or Nothing.  Plus, the dark comedy, Shevenge that she also produced. But surely, fans miss her as the legendary Lulu and want her back on the GH canvas.

However, Emme recently clarified that Lulu is not ready to awaken anytime soon. Currently, she remains comatose in a long-term care facility.

Lulu Spencer Still Comatose on General Hospital

Many General Hospital viewers are still hopeful that Lulu Spencer will wake up one day and return to those who love her. Lulu Spencer is a legacy character who has been on the scene since 1994.

Fans will recall that she’s the daughter of Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) and the iconic Luke Spencer (Anthony Geary). Julie Berman most notably played the character until Emme stepped into the role.

General Hospital fans adore Emme as longtime character Lulu Spencer, especially “Lante” fans who want her back with ex-husband Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna). No doubt, she and Dante were a power couple.

Then, Dante left the country to go undercover, and “Lante” fell apart. However, when Dante returned, Lulu admitted she still loved him. But then, she collapsed and fell into a coma without Dante knowing her true feelings.

Slowly, Dante moved on and is now with Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco). So, the showrunners may want to wait to put Lulu back in the mix until Dante is more serious with Sam, which is already in motion. Recently, “Sante” took the next step and dropped the L-word.

Now that Dante is in love with Sam, getting Lulu back and shaking things up would be perfectly soapy. But, until General Hospital asks Emme Rylan to come back, she has a few projects in motion. And indeed, her family keeps her busy…

What is the General Hospital Star Doing Now?

These days, Emme Rylan has plenty going on. As fans may know, the actress loves to knit and crochet — and she’s amazingly talented. She shares a passion with real-life best friend Kirsten Storms, who plays Maxie Jones on GH.

Emme and her BFF Kirsten often go live on Instagram and invite others to crochet and knit with them. Plus, she has an Etsy shop, Handmade by Emme Rylan, where fans can purchase her beautiful creations.

She makes and sells scarves, sweaters, and so much more. And, of course, Emme loves spending time with her family. She has three adorable children with her longtime partner, Don Money.

They have two sons, Jackson and Levi, and a little girl Dakota. And she loves showing off her family — including fiance Don — on her Instagram.

Besides that, Emme is ecstatic to be working on-set again. However, it’s not the General Hospital set like fans hope. Instead, she is working on a fun project that appears to be a horror film. Recently, she shared a pic with a castmate who was covered in blood.

So, Emme might be in danger from a killer in her current film. Or, perhaps, she’s the culprit and not the victim. But, on the other hand, she may not be on-screen at all. Instead, she may be behind the scenes producing, which is something else she loves to do.

So, while Emme is off GH, she lives a full life. But, of course, she hopes to bring Lulu Spencer back someday. So, watch GH every day to see if Emme Rylan will return as Lulu Spencer soon on the ABC daytime drama. If so, her return will shake up lives all over Port Chuck.
