Before landing Dillon, he tried out for several small parts on B&B, and in 2013, he auditioned for the GH role of Morgan.

He has a small-world connection to former on-screen father Richard Burgi (ex-Paul): “My mom’s [husband] grew up down the street from him in New Jersey and they were on the swim team together!”

Watkins held myriad jobs before landing on GH. “Man I worked everywhere! I was a valet, a waiter at a downtown supper club, a greeter at Abercrombie, a bellman, I did random bartending and catering jobs, I worked at Pinkberry, I worked at iPic movie theaters.”

When he was younger Watkins enjoyed, “art and drawing were a huge part of my life, every day, just hours spent drawing in a sketchbook."

Watkins's mom was a fan of GH before Watkins joined. “She was the one who explained to me what a big deal Luke and Laura are, how people used to skip class to watch them."
