Charlotte Cassadine^[5] is the daughter of Valentin Cassadine and Lulu Spencer, carried by Claudette Beaulieu. She was born from an embryo that Helena Cassadine created and tried to pass off as Stavros' child with Lulu. Claudette realized that Valentin was dangerous after Charlotte was born, and ran away with her. She later asked her ex-husband, Nathan West, to protect them. Claudette tells Nathan that Charlotte is his daughter, but when a DNA test disproves it, Claudette claims her ex-lover, Griffin Munro, is Charlotte's father. When Claudette realizes Valentin has found her, she skips town and leaves Charlotte behind with Griffin. Valentin tells Griffin that he is Charlotte's father, and Nathan receives a note from Claudette affirming the claim. Griffin petitions to have custody of Charlotte, but the judge grants full custody to Valentin. After Charlotte meets Lulu, she finds out the truth about Charlotte. Lulu petitions Valentin for custody, but he is granted sole custody while she is granted supervised weekly visits. Although Charlotte was distant from Lulu at first, the two grow closer. Months later, Valentin and Lulu share joint custody. Charlotte remains close to Nina Reeves. After her mother Lulu collapsed and put into a coma due to a traumatic brain injury and cerebral edema she sustained from the explosion at The Floating Rib (along with her boyfriend Dustin Phillips who died from his injuries), she lives with her father and sometimes with her grandmother Laura.

Spencer Cassadine^[6] is the son of Nikolas Cassadine and Courtney Matthews, introduced in February 2006. He was originally believed to be the son of Jasper Jacks, and Jax decides to keep the secret after Courtney dies. He names the baby John Michael Jacks in honor of Jax and Courtney's fathers. Robin Scorpio learns the truth and announces it at the baby's christening. Nikolas renames the baby Spencer Cassadine in honor of his siblings Lucky and Lulu Spencer. Spencer is kidnapped soon after by his nanny, Colleen McHenry. Before Nikolas can rescue Spencer, he is taken by Helena from Colleen. Nikolas and Emily Quartermaine eventually rescue him. Spencer leaves town with his father and returns with his great-grandmother Lesley Webber.

At his tenth birthday party, Spencer suffers burns and smoke inhalation when a fire breaks out. After Nikolas is presumed dead, Spencer is put under the care of his grandmother Laura Spencer. Spencer asks Laura to let him go to boarding school in France, as Nikolas had planned to enroll Spencer there. She agrees and Spencer leaves. He returns the following summer, intent on getting revenge on Valentin, who is believed to have murdered Nikolas. He is kidnapped by Garvey to draw out Sonny Corinthos, Spencer's uncle. Spencer escapes and Laura sends him back to boarding school for his safety.

When Nikolas returns, he visits Spencer in France with Ava Jerome, his new wife. Spencer is initially happy to see his father but becomes angry when he finds out Nikolas intentionally stayed away to reclaim the Cassadine inheritance from Valentin. Spencer tells Nikolas to stay away and leave him alone. He returns as a young man to Port Charles over a year later, and stalks and harasses Nikolas and Ava by impersonating Ryan Chamberlain to get them to separate.

In 2023, Charlie Mason from Soaps She Knows placed Spencer and his love interest Trina Robinson as a shared entry (at #39 and #38) on his ranked list of General Hospital’s 40+ Greatest Characters of All Time, commenting "Yes, these two lovebirds have to share an entry.
