Chris McKenna may bring the drama to General Hospital as Jack Brennan, but off-screen, he recently shared a bit of joy with fans—and it has nothing to do with Port Charles. The actor took to social media with a sweet family moment that left followers smiling and swooning.
A New Generation
“PLEASE WELCOME the newest member of the McKenna clan! My nephew, Preston Jet McKenna. 
” he wrote in an X post on April 18, proudly showing off the sleeping newborn wrapped in a soft blanket. The name Preston Jet already sounds like a future heartthrob in the making
McKenna’s co-star, Laura Wright (Carly), replied, “Congratulations!!!!!”
Fans were quick to respond with love and congratulations, clearly thrilled to celebrate the new arrival alongside McKenna. Many commented on how peaceful and perfect little Preston looked, while others joked that the next generation of soap stars may have just been born.
McKenna, who also made his mark as Mark Harding on The Young and the Restless and Joey Buchanan on One Life to Live, has always been a fan favorite for his charm both on and off screen. This glimpse into his real life shows a softer, proud uncle side that viewers don’t always get to see.
While his character on GH tends to stir things up, this moment is all about love, life, and family—and it’s safe to say Preston’s arrival is already stealing hearts.
