‘General Hospital’ (GH) spoilers fans are still reeling from the shocking death of Dex Heller, played by Evan Hofer. Hofer’s departure after two years on the soap opera has left a void, but the actor himself seems to be taking it all in stride, with a touch of humor.
In a recent interview with Soaps.com, Hofer revealed one unexpected aspect of his time on the show that he won’t miss: the lackluster tea selection. “The tea selection was a little weak,” he admitted jokingly, “but I brought my own.”

Hofer’s dedication to his tea apparently transcended the set. He shared stories of comparing tea blends with co-stars Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) and Emma Samms (Holly Sutton). Samms, touched by the gesture, even gifted Hofer a special tea before her own exit from the show.
Despite the subpar tea situation, Hofer expressed his overall positive experience on “General Hospital.” “You know, I think if it’s the right story and the right character, I’m pretty happy with whatever medium…I’ve loved my time on the soaps,” he said. “I mean, how lucky am I to be doing something I love? What a privilege, and that’s not lost on me.”
Hofer’s departure isn’t the only news from “General Hospital.” Eden McCoy, who plays Josslyn Jacks, Dex’s on-screen love interest, is also addressing his exit publicly. Additionally, the show has undergone a recasting, though details remain under wraps.
While fans may miss seeing Dex on their screens, it seems Evan Hofer is ready for his next cup of tea, both literally and figuratively, with a positive outlook on his future acting endeavors.
