General Hospital News And Spoilers: Cynthia Watros Defends Nina’s Decision To Keep Sonny A Secret

General Hospital fans are in an uproar over the current storyline involving GH’s leading man, Maurice Benard, as the legendary Mob Boss, Sonny Corinthos.

Many fans have expressed their dislike for the situation Nina Reeves is creating for Sonny and the rest of the Corinthos family.

General Hospital news reports confirm that Cynthia Watros has had a chance to defend her character’s actions, and explain why Nina would keep Sonny from his family.

General Hospital spoilers reveal Cynthia’s explanation in an interview with Soaps In Depth. As he explains that Nina was confused and basically couldn’t believe her eyes when she arrived in Nixon Falls and saw this man looking strikingly like the man Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright), along with many back in Port Charles, are mourning.

Watros explains, “She thought she was kind of losing her mind or something,” She continued by revealing, “She was thinking ‘Maybe he’s not sonny, he’s just a guy who completely looks like Sonny and talks like Sonny.’ That went away quickly, and then she was concerned for his mental health.” Cynthia went on to say, “Like, if I just blurt out to him, ‘You’re this guy, you’re the head of this mob and you have a wife and kids,’ is that too much information? Would that be a harm to him?” she continued. “So she was grappling with that and she did try to call Carly, and Carly was mean to her; rightfully so, because they’re in a bit of a rough patch right now. I think it kind of broke open Nina’s vulnerability and hurt.”

It’s safe to say that regardless of why Nina is doing the despicable thing she is doing, GH fans believe it’s high time Sonny gets home to PC and his family.
