“She recently announced that she’s expecting her 4th child. The child is not mine. We are still co-parenting our three beautiful kids. We would appreciate privacy at this time. Much luv, Steve.”


Ouch, huh?


Burton is clearly saying here that Sheree cheated on him and got pregnant in the process.

“Life sure is full of surprises!” she captioned the reveal.


Burton, meanwhile, announced in November that he was let go from General Hospital due to the show’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate, and his decision not to take this vaccine.


“I know there’s been a lot of rumors and speculation about me and General Hospital, and I wanted you to hear it from me personally,” Burton said in a video at the time.

He continued:


“Unfortunately, General Hospital has let me go because of the vaccine mandate. I did apply for my medical and religious exemptions, and both of those were denied, which, you know, hurts.


“But this is also about personal freedom to me.


“I don’t think anyone should lose their livelihood over this. But with that being said, you know me, I’ll always be grateful for my time at General Hospital, I love it there.”
