General Hospital News – Maurice Benard Has Gotten Very Emotional About Daughter’s Marriage Proposal

Maurice recently revealed to his fans that he is headed to his daughter Cailey’s wedding ceremony this weekend. Even though Cailey and her husband Carlos first got married last summer, they couldn’t have the big wedding that they wanted because of the Covid-19 pandemic. That’s why they’ve decided to celebrate once more with all of their friends and family present, especially now that many of them have gotten their Covid-19 vaccines.

The actor recently recalled the moment when Carlos first proposed to Cailey at Disney World. Maurice said that the moment felt so special that he “fell to his knees” and was “crying like a baby.”

If that weren’t enough, Maurice says that his wife Paula “walked off for whatever reason” and that their son Joshua ran, yelling, “Dad’s having a nervous breakdown.” Maurice also got choked up while telling the story on Instagram.
