Will Laura Wright's COVID Diagnosis Result In A Carly Recast On General Hospital?

Posted by Tandra Barner on Wednesday, May 29, 2024

After Laura Wright announced her COVID-19 diagnosis, fans flocked to social media to wish her well. Many also wondered if she would need to be recast for upcoming episodes of "General Hospital." Thankfully she was able to put their minds at ease. The actress tweeted, "[GH is] on a break right now so I'll be good when we start shooting again." Whew. That means Wright can continue to enjoy her down time while viewers enjoy the daily ramp-up of Carly–centered storylines on the soap.

In recent weeks, the character suffered a major financial loss after Ned Quartermaine (Wally Kurth) sabotaged the merger between ELQ and Aurora Media. As a result, Carly lost her half of the Metro Court Hotel that she has co-owned with friend Olivia Falconeri (Lisa LoCicero) for many years (via Soaps). What's worse? Her arch-nemesis Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) quickly snatched it up. Though Olivia, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard), and Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) offered to help Carly out of the jam, her pride kept her from accepting. 

Also, the criminal trial regarding her daughter Josslyn Jacks' (Eden McCoy) leaked sex tape has begun (via SoapDirt). Most of the residents of Port Charles, along with fans of the show, are panicked for Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali), who might end up in prison for a crime she didn't commit! Luckily, our beloved Laura Wright will be there to show us how exactly Carly is going to navigate her latest troubles.
