Carly’s Here to Stay! General Hospital’s Laura Wright Dispels Exit Rumors

Laura Wright, known and loved for her portrayal of Carly on General Hospital, took to social media to set the record straight – she’s not going anywhere! Fans on X (formerly Twitter) speculated about her future on the show after a fan asked if she was leaving due to an impending marriage. Wright’s response was short, sweet, and straight to the point. 

Clearing Up the Rumors

The rumor mill started churning when a fan, @LindaJo51355230, tweeted Wright asking, “Is it true you’re getting married and leaving the show for a while? If so, you will come back, won’t you?” Wright quickly squashed the speculation. Wright shut it down with a clear and simple response: “Nope, not true at all.”

The timing of this speculation is intriguing, coming shortly after Chad Duell, who plays Carly’s on-screen son Michael, stepped away from the show. This departure may have fueled fans’ fears of a larger shake-up in the Corinthos family storyline. However, Wright’s clarification ensures her character’s place in Port Charles remains secure.

A Pillar of Port Charles

Wright has been a cornerstone of the daytime drama since stepping into Carly’s shoes. She’s flourished while navigating Carly through love, heartbreak, and countless dramatic twists. Her portrayal has made Carly an essential part of the show’s fabric. With her unmatched charisma and powerful performances, Wright is a fan favorite who keeps audiences invested in Carly’s often tumultuous life.
