As Jason shifted his attention to Anna’s latest crisis on General Hospital, Steve Burton prepared to take a short break from the show. The overlap felt fitting. On-screen, Jason moved into fixer mode, all loyalty and controlled intensity. Off-screen, Burton stepped back just enough for his wife, Michelle Lundstrom, to pull focus in a different way. On social media, she shared a glimpse of the man between takes rather than the legend in black. And fans picked up on that immediately.
Lundstrom wrote on Instagram, “Just over here admiring my incredibly talented husband @1steveburton. Watching you shine on set and in life makes my heart so happy. I’m so proud of you and so grateful I get to be by your side through every season of this beautiful life.❤️✨” Alongside the caption, she posted a behind-the-scenes video of Burton on the GH set, soundtracked to Starship’s “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now.”
The footage showed him walking through the studio corridors, studying his scripts, sharing a hug, and moving easily through the world of Port Charles with the crew around him. It felt real, not polished for publicity. Just Burton moving through the set, easy and at home with familiar Port Charles backdrops behind him.
It hit exactly as intended. Fans weren’t seeing Jason mid-plot twist. They were seeing Burton between beats, settled into the rhythm of a set he has walked for decades.
Fans Felt the Love
The comment section quickly filled with warmth. A fan wrote, “Such a cute hug ❤️.” One follower added, “He is the best.” Another viewer simply posted, “The G.O.A.T on GH ❤️.”
Some leaned into the romance. “Love you two together. ♥️,” one person shared, while another wrote, “You and Steve have the best love♥️♥️♥️.” A different follower chimed in, “We love him! We can see how happy he is with you, so we love you too! ❤️❤️.”
