Jason Morgan, formerly Jason Quartermaine is the biological son of Alan Quartermaine and his former mistress, Susan Moore. Here are five things to know about his character.
He has been portrayed by four different actors
The role of Jason Morgan has been portrayed by four actors. Quinn Carlson played the role from November 11, 1981, to June 3, 1982. Bryan Beck played the role from September 8, 1982, to December 26, 1988.

Billy Miller played the role from October 1, 2014, until 2017, when he was cast in the role of Jason’s identical twin brother, Andrew “Drew” Cain.
He lost his memory in 1995
On December 29, 1995, Jason was involved in a car accident with his half-brother, A.J. Quartermaine. A.J. was intoxicated when he got behind the wheel of a vehicle and crashed into a tree, not far from the Quartermaine property. Jason, who tried to prevent A.J. from driving, was ejected from the vehicle, smacked his head on a large boulder and fell unconscious.
A.J. and Jason’s cousin, Ned Ashton, found the crash site and took responsibility for the crash so that A.J. wouldn’t go to prison. When Jason awoke from his coma, he had suffered severe brain damage, with no memory of his past, drastic changes in his personality and no feelings for anyone in his family, except his grandmother, Lila and his sister, Emily. He changed his last name from Quartermaine to Morgan.
He has had 1,907 appearances
Jason Morgan has appeared on General Hospital a total of 1,907 episodes, from 1991 to 2019.
He has been married three times
He was married to Brenda Barrett (after Brenda blackmailed him into getting married) from 2002 until 2003 when they had their marriage annulled. Jason married Courtney Matthews in 2003 until 2004, when they divorced after their marriage was considered invalid. Courtney was still married to A.J. Quartermaine, whom she thought was dead. Later, Jason married Sam McCall in 2011. Their marriage was dissolved in 2012 when he was presumed dead and they later divorced in 2018.
Shiloh has eyes everywhere and even Jason has trouble avoiding them. How can he get himself out of this one?
