The missing son of two General Hospital former cast members, Jack Wagner and his ex-wife Kristina Wagner, has been heard from. These were two very worried parents when their 21-year-old son, Harrison, went missing for five days last week. Today the Wagners report that their son has been in touch, so he is no longer deemed as a missing person.
Jack Wagner took to Twitter to write a word of thanks to all of those who sent their love and prayers when Harrison was first reported missing.
Jack Wagner shared his concerns
According to Fox News, there is no word if their son will be returning home or where he is at this time. Just to know he is alive has to be a relief to the former General Hospital stars. Wagner and his ex-wife were both on General Hospital when they dated back in the 80s and the couple married in 1993. They were divorced in 2006 after two kids and 13 years of marriage. Kristina played the role of Frisco and Felicia on the soap.
The couple had two children together, both boys. Harrison is the youngest at 21 and their oldest son Peter is 25-years-old. Jack Wagner also has a daughter from a previous relationship. It seemed to be quite the scare for Jack Wagner who took to Twitter last week to write about his son not being seen or heard from in five days.
Alcohol and drug relapse feared
Jack shared on Twitter that his son had a previous history of drugs and alcohol, tweeting, "I fear for my youngest sons safety. Harrison has struggled w drugs & alcohol just as I did when I was younger. He’s relapsed & is MIA 5 days.”
At the same time Jack announced that his son had contacted the family, he did tweet, "Harrison's been in touch, he's 21 and in charge of his life." Then he finished up with his heartfelt thanks for everyone's support around his missing son.
When he wrote "he's 21 and in charge of his life," it sounded as if there still may be some unresolved issues between father and son. The main thing is that they heard from him instead of spending every waking hour wondering where he is.
Earth shattering even in real-life
These veteran soap opera stars, who seemingly could survive just about anything on screen, had to handle their son's disappearance in real life, which is nothing at all like playing out a crisis as an actor in earth shattering events. Despite being divorced, the couple has remained the closest of friends. Last year the duo co-starred in When the Heart Calls, a movie made for the Hallmark Channel.
