Holly left for Australia first, but shortly after her departure Robert found a young girl hiding in his home and we soon learned her name was Robin Scorpio, Robert’s secret daughter with Anna. After spending time getting to know his daughter, Robert followed Holly to Australia.

Shortly after setting up their life down under, Robert found himself mourning Holly’s untimely death due to an accident. He would later remarry his first wife Anna.

Holly returned to Port Charles several years later, revealing she was in a coma after her accident and her family decided not to tell Robert.

She decided to allow Robert his chance at happiness with Anna, and became close to their daughter Robin, who leaned on her when her parents were presumed dead. Holly and Mac Scorpio (John J. York), Robert’s brother, became surrogate parents to Robin.

Years later, Robert turned up very much alive. Holly was so angry at this turn of events and the grief he caused her that she demanded money for the only antidote available to cure a strain of encephalitis that had infected several residents of Port Charles, including Robin.

Holly was taken to prison for her misdeeds but escaped and went on the run from bounty hunters with both Robert and Luke, reuniting with both her lovers before she skipped town for good.

Holly returned years later to determine who fathered her son, Ethan–Robert or Luke. A DNA test later confirmed that Luke was indeed Ethan’s father.

Holly last returned to Port Charles after Ethan and Lucky were abducted. She worked alongside Laura (Genie Francis) to help rescue their sons. The character was last seen taking Ethan to the hospital after being shot by madman Frank Smith.
