Three months ago, GENERAL HOSPITAL star Chad Duell (Michael) welcomed his son, Dawson, into the world, and it looks like he’s fully embraced fatherhood. Partner Luana Lucci shared some photos — and an absolutely heart-meltingly adorable video — on Instagram as she praised Duell’s skills as a father.

“Gratitude floods my heart for this extraordinary man who’s not only embraced fatherhood with unparalleled love but has also maintained the magic of our relationship,” Lucci happily declared. “From being an incredibly hands-on dad to ensuring we continue to date and cherish moments of joy, he defines the essence of an amazing partner.”

Duell and Lucci enjoyed a date night on Dec. 15 when they attended the 2023 Daytime Emmy Awards (Duell was up for Outstanding Supporting Actor). The duo also recently launched a new business together.

“His sweetness, care, and unwavering support for my dreams make him the most incredible teammate,” Lucci praised. “Excited for a lifetime with this beautiful soul — I’m grateful for the love, laughter, and endless adventures ahead.” She also included the hashtags “#BestDad,” “AmazingPartner,” and “#gratefulheart” for good measure.

Check out some of Lucci’s photographic evidence of Duell’s wonderful parenting in the special photo gallery below!

    Did Lucci just capture an awkward moment between facial expressions or is this perhaps Duell's reaction to Dawson leaving daddy a little "present" in his diaper? 🤣

    Dawson seems like a very happy little baby — he's even relaxed in the bath!

    Duell was enjoying some quiet time on the couch cradling his son in his arms, but kitty Cash wanted some lap time, too!
