General Hospital star Dom Zamprogna recently opened up about Dante and Sam’s relationship in his own words. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
General Hospital Spoilers: Dom Zamprogna In His Own Words About Dante And Sam
Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, Dom says that his character Dante is still trying to process the sudden death of Sam McCall, the woman that he was about to make his wife. The actor amits that Dante’s relationship with Sam certainly changed him in more ways than one.
He said, “I feel like he became more of a man with Sam, you know? And I think that happened partly because that’s life — when you’re getting older, and your kids are getting older, you’re thinking about things a little differently.”
“So there was a whole element of the Sam/Dante relationship that was very mature. They were different people together than they’d been with other people on the show. It’s like that arrested development thing, where if you’re with someone for a really long time, you can fall into the trap of not growing.”
The actor continued, “Dante’s journey with her was him getting to coexist with someone who wasn’t Lulu, and it was life-altering for that character. It didn’t feel conscious, but it felt like this unspoken kind of maturity came out of [Sam and Dante being together].”

Dom said that the Dante that everyone got to know is certainly not going to be the same Dante moving forward.
He said, “There’s so much that I put into Dante’s life with and love for Sam, and it can’t just go away and it can’t just disappear and it can’t be lessened.”
“It’s something I’m going to try to inject into the character and hold on to, because it’s important. When a person in real life falls in love with somebody, and if they lose that person, they don’t just move on.”
“[That loss] is devastating and real and I want to try my best to bring that to every scene that I’m in. You can’t gloss over a broken heart; you can’t just patch it up. So that is something I am going to have to remember going forward and incorporate it into everything Dante does at this point.”
