General Hospital’s Cynthia Watros Shares a Series of Photos of Her Daughter That Will Make You Do an About-Face
Saturday, August 6th, 2022
Talent clearly runs in the family.
Lots of actors share with their Instagram followers photos of their children. But few and far between are the ones that share — or even could share — photos like the ones that Cynthia Watros did earlier this week.
In picture after picture, Emma Gilliland, one of the actress’ twins with her former husband, is seen embodying a rainbow… looking like the ghoul next door… putting her spin on Tim Burton’s The Corpse Bride. To put it mildly, the shots are eye-popping!
“My beautiful daughter loves being a make-up artist,” says the General Hospital leading lady, “and she is amazing. This is just a few of her creations.”
“Amazing” may even be an understatement. The 21-year-old has the kinda skills that the kids would call “mad.” But even Emma might have a tough time painting a happy face on Mom’s on-screen romance.

A Bumpy Road Ahead
Nina got the guy. Sonny and Carly are over. Done. Finito. Yet the path ahead is anything but clear for the lovers who fell for one another while he was chilling in Nixon Falls as an amnesiac named Mike. “Carly’s long shadow will always hang over us,” Nina recently noted. The question is, can she handle that?
Sonny is keenly aware that his ex will be a part of his life for the rest of his life. That’s a given, considering that they have children together. Nina, on the other hand, is just starting to realize what it will be like to be with a guy who can never completely sever his ties to his old flame. It’s difficult… complicated… frustrating… anxiety-inducing. So much so that she could decide that she can’t hack it. While we wait to see what happens…
Review the relationship status of all the couples on General Hospital in the below gallery.

1/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> He’s served her with divorce papers rather than breakfast in bed. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Nina’s decision to rat out Sonny’s ex Carly to the SEC has put their relationship to the test — one that it just might not pass!</p>
Image: ABC
2/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> In the end zone. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Learning that Dex was willing to kill Cyrus on Sonny’s orders prompted Josslyn to take out a hit on their relationship.</p>

3/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> TBD. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Jason’s in a mess of trouble. But if his former wife has anything to say about it, he won’t be in it alone.</p>
Image: Disney
4/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Cue The Carpenters’ “We’ve Only Just Begun.” <strong>Their biggest obstacle: </strong>Take your pick — Blaze’s super-religious and disapproving family or Kristina’s decision to act as sis Molly’s surrogate.</p>
Image: Disney
5/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> See photo above. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> They’ve rebounded from the misstep that nearly did in their romance. But is the attraction of these opposites strong enough to make them lifers?</p>
Image: ABC
6/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Happily married. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> None. Their relationship is healing as quickly as Curtis is nowadays.</p>
Image: ABC screenshot
7/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Splitsville. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> The minute Drew heard that his “late” brother Jason was back among the living, he knew that his relationship with Carly had one foot in the grave. He just gave it a shove over the edge.</p>
Image: ABC (2)
8/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Made for each other. <strong>Their biggest obstacle: </strong>It’s only a matter of (very little) time before Brando’s widow and her hero leave the friend zone for good.</p>
Image: ABC
9/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Married… with problems. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> His keeping her mother’s S-E-C-ret from her has left her as ticked at him as she is Nina. And she’s <em>hella</em> ticked at Nina!</p>
Image: ABC
10/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Frenemies. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Though Avery’s parents would probably make a killer power couple, she’s just happy that she still has a pulse after murdering his old flame, Connie.</p>
Image: Disney
11/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Oh my. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> She’s committed to Martin. Yet plotting anew with Scotty left Lucy making hay with her ex too quickly for either of them to bail.</p>
Image: Howard Wise/JPI
12/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Long done. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Like Sam after her, Elizabeth refused to risk her children’s lives to be with Sonny’s enforcer. But, should she get another chance with Jake’s dad, would she throw caution to the wind and — sorry, Finn — take it?</p>
Image: The Walt Disney Company
13/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Amicable exes.<strong> Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Ned’s happily hitched to Lois’ pal, Olivia. On top of that, Rena Sofer thinks that it would be cruel to her and former husband Wally Kurth’s spouses to re-pair them on screen. (<a href="https://soaps.sheknows.com/general-hospital/news/696903/spoiler-will-ned-lois-get-back-together/" target="_blank">Read her comments here.</a>)</p>
Image: ABC
14/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Together. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> The shadow of his comatose wife, Lulu, looms large over their future. Which is odd, because Lulu is not very tall. There’s also the fact that her favorite ex, Jason, just rose from the grave. Yes, again.</p>
Image: ABC
15/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Happily hitched. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> It’s hard to keep a relationship stable in a town as quake-prone as Port Charles. Plus, are they really ready to step in as baby Ace’s parents?</p>
Image: ABC
16/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Finished. Done. Forever. Er, for now. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Now that Sonny has left Nina, there might have been a chance that Carly would forgive and forget — if Jason hadn’t come back, that is.</p>
Image: ABC
17/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Married. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> It’s resolved now that the amnesiac has remembered who he is and, just as important, who his family is.</p>
Image: ABC
18/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Together at last. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> First, she recalled killing his wife. Then, she lied that she was having Nikolas’ baby. And still, they couldn’t just say, “Enough already.”</p>
Image: ABC
19/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> The picture of a perfect couple. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> The marrieds’ family tree is sure to be uprooted when they find out that a branch needs to be hung for Cody.</p>
Image: ABC screenshot
20/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Life partners. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> With Kristina acting as surrogate, the couple’s efforts to start a family just might be the end of ’em.</p>
Image: ABC (2)
21/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Consider their interest piqued. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Diane is understandably reluctant to hold out her heart to a guy whose own still belongs to his exes, Anna and Holly. Robert, in turn, has reservations about dating the local crimelord’s biggest defender.</p>
Image: ABC
22/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Old flames with warm feelings. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Is there one, really? Now that Anna’s dumped Valentin and Sonny’s on the outs with Nina, the scheme team could discover that they’d also make a dream team.</p>
Image: Howard Wise/JPI
23/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Past tense. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Even before his latest demise, she’d stuck a fork in their dangerous relationship. Now that he’s back, she thinks he shot her new love, Dante.</p>
Image: ABC
24/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> A non-starter. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> As hot as they were and as warm as the pairing’s reception was, <em>General Hospital</em> seems to have decided to instead pair her with Brick.</p>
Image: Howard Wise/JPI (2)
25/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Let’s say… strained. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Deception isn’t just the name of Lucy’s embattled company, it’s also one of her and Marty’s favorite pastimes.</p>
Image: ABC
26/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Fun while it lasted. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> The coconspirators had scarcely left the starting gate when the doctor was sent to the permanent finish line.</p>
Image: ABC
27/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> “Exed” out. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> It’d be pretty hard for them to come back from Ava “killing” Nikolas (here Marcus Coloma) to keep him from kidnapping daughter Avery. Then again, before he left Port Charles, we <em>did</em> see some of those old, less homicidal feelings beneath the surface…</p>
Image: ABC
28/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> RIP. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> First, their baby died, then so did Brando. Yeah, 2022 was <em>not</em> a good year for Sasha.</p>
Image: ABC (2)
29/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Divorced. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Again, divorced. But besides that, he’s now married to Portia.</p>
Image: ABC
30/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Kaput — we hope. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Her abduction of her ex and girlfriend Trina made the kind of splash from which neither Spencer nor Esme seemed likely to return anytime soon.</p>
Image: ABC (2)
31/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> A non-starter. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> They were just beginning to really connect when The Hook hastened the terminally ill doctor’s demise.</p>
Image: ABC
32/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Broken up.<strong> Their biggest obstacle:</strong> The sex-tape debacle threw such a cold bucket of water on them that it was easy for Dex to reheat her.</p>
Image: ABC (2)
33/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Alas, only a memory. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> A combo platter of Valentin’s lies and Anna’s shooting his daughter added up to a soul-stomping split.</p>
Image: ABC screenshot (2)
34/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Divorced. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Brad’s lie about Wiley’s parentage was the kinda deal-breaker that his husband didn’t want to renegotiate.</p>
Image: ABC screenshot
35/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> A thing of the past.<strong> Their biggest obstacle:</strong> His hookup with his son’s scheming girlfriend will go down in history as one of his biggest regrets.</p>
Image: ABC screenshot (2)
36/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Longtime pals. <strong>Their biggest obstacle: </strong>Their shared grief over Spencer’s “death” could lead to the duo reevaluating their residence in the friend zone… just in time for Trina’s “late” boyfriend to return.</p>
Image: ABC (2)
37/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Sparring partners. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Having been diagnosed with ALS, Gregory is more concerned with his life than his love life.</p>
Image: ABC (2)

<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Sadly ended. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> The <a href="https://soaps.sheknows.com/general-hospital/news/709626/sonya-eddy-tribute-anniversary-death/" target="_blank">real-life loss of Sonya Eddy</a> cut short her character’s <span style="text-decoration: line-through">latest</span> last love story.</p>
Image: ABC (2)
39/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Over… board. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> <a href="https://soaps.sheknows.com/general-hospital/news/716184/what-happened-to-spencer-when-will-he-return/" target="_blank">Nicholas Alexander Chavez’s temporary exit</a> as Spencer left Trina’s honey, however unintentionally, telling her, “<em>Sea</em> ya.”</p>
Image: ABC
40/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Dead and buried. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> It’s pretty hard to get a relationship going when <span style="text-decoration: line-through">both characters are</span> one of the characters is pushing up daisies.</p>
Image: ABC screenshot (2)
41/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Apart… for now. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> In the end, we’re pretty sure they’re going to realize that they’re meant for one another. But in the middle, oof. She’s letting for grief over daughter Britt’s death bury her relationship, too.</p>
Image: Howard Wise/JPI
42/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Separated… though not by choice. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Just as the Falconeris appeared to be on the verge of reuniting, she slipped into a coma and he, into Sam’s arms.</p>
Image: ABC screenshot
43/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Classmates… and crushes. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Elizabeth is a blessedly accepting and supportive mom. But homophobia and intolerance threaten to make Aiden’s first love as scary as joyful.</p>

Image: ABC
45/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Over before they began. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> His sister Amy’s conniving moved him right out of town — and her boss’ life.</p>
Image: ABC
46/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> They are, as k.d. lang would sing, one another’s constant craving. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> Circumstances keep conspiring to keep them from being together long enough to do more than steal the occasional kiss.</p>
Image: ABC
47/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Done. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> There was more to the doctor than met the eye — and Maxie didn’t like what she saw.</p>
Image: ABC (2)
48/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Playing detective.<strong> Their biggest obstacle:</strong> The police commissioner is all business, the investigator, all funny business.</p>
Image: The Walt Disney Company
49/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Dating. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> This is one case of puppy love that just might bite, owing to the fact that Charlotte creepily takes after her malevolent late grandmother, Helena.</p>
Image: ABC
50/55
<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Former General Hospital colleagues. <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> First she stuck him in the friend zone. Then she herself got stuck in the morgue!</p>
Image: ABC screenshot
51/55

<p><strong>Current status:</strong> Matching wits… and more? <strong>Their biggest obstacle:</strong> ALS may shorten Gregory’s life to the point that Tracy doesn’t get to play a very big role in it.</p>
