We recently witnessed the backlash Carly faced after the secret she had been keeping came out, the one of Nina being Willow’s birth mom. However, there is another paternity secret that is begging to burst out now.
The possibility of Curtis being Trina’s biological father! Portia had been avoiding facing the massive shakeup. But the cat is out of the bag; Trina knows the truth, and it’s only a matter of time till the cat meows in Curtis’ ear! What will happen then? Will this put a dent in the newlyweds’ relationship? Could Curtis demand an annulment?
Portia’s Secret Alienates Trina, Is Curtis Next?
Back in the day, Curtis broke up with Portia on the grounds that she was already married on General Hospital. This left Portia no choice but to try and rekindle her relationship with her husband, Taggert. Soon after, she realized that she was pregnant. The timing was such that the baby could’ve been fathered by either of the men, Curtis or Taggert.
However, since Curtis had already left the picture and Taggert was ecstatic with the news of becoming a father, she decided to let things flow that way. Lucky for her, their relationship drastically improved after the pregnancy, but it did eventually fall apart. Nevertheless, Taggert was a good father to Trina, so Portia never considered spilling the tea.
However, there is only so long that one can hold a secret on General Hospital. There were many people who were in the know of the possibility of Curtis being Trina’s bio dad. They constantly kept pushing Portia to tell the truth to Curtis and Trina, but she chose to go ahead with her wedding with Curtis without coming clean.
However, Trina found out the truth and confronted her mother. Portia’s admission shattered Trina. She now feels betrayed by her mother and feels as if her whole life is a lie. Will Curtis be next in line to learn the truth? And if his reaction is anywhere close to Trina’s, then Portia’s better be prepared for her wedding to go up in smokes!
Can Curtis’ Anger Over Portia’s Betrayal End Their Marriage On General Hospital?
Portia had been turning a deaf ear to Jordan’s advice on General Hospital. But the newest bride in town might soon regret not taking it. Mostly because now her marriage might be at risk of suffering the same fate as Jordan’s did with Curtis. Interestingly, for the same reason too! Secret-keeping! Jordan kept pushing Portia to tell Curtis the truth before the marriage so both of them could start the new relationship with a clear mind and heart and zero deception. But Portia chose to do the opposite. Now, Trina knows the truth, and it’s only a matter of time before word reaches Curtis.
He is going to be furious when he learns that Portia had been lying to him all these years on General Hospital. When she had first returned to Port Charles, he had asked her about Trina’s paternity, and she had told him that Taggert was the father. Even after the two rekindled their old romance, got engaged, and are now married, she did not tell him the truth. While she had many opportunities to come clean. Curtis may feel like Portia cheated him out of the chance of raising Trina if she really is his bio child. This may shake his faith in Portia and make him wonder if he made the right decision by marrying her.
It takes years to build trust, but it takes only one lie to destroy it all. And Trina’s paternity secret might end up destroying Curtis and Portia’s marriage on General Hospital. Do you think Portia will be able to do some damage control to this situation, or will Curtis fly off the handle and leave his wife? Please share with us in the comments.
