No more wondering! The mystery has finally been solved. Nelle Benson (Chloe Lanier) is indeed the daughter of Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros), but it doesn’t stop there.
The saga of Nina’s long lost daughter began years ago. Back in September of 2020, General Hospital Blog reported General Hospital spoilers which were derived straight from Executive Producer, Frank Valentini.
General Hospital news reports revealed Valentini disclosed that the plan had always been for Nelle Benson to turn out to be Nina’s long lost child, but held in the major twist which we witnessed in today’s episode of General Hospital.
GH spoilers reveal Nina’s bad news also comes with some good news even though the revelation will most likely stretch over a lengthy period of time.
General Hospital Recap: On Wednesday, the May 4th emotional episode, a dying Harmony Miller (Inga Cadranel) made a confession to Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) and pleaded with her to keep her last dying wish. That request was that Carly always protect Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen). In Harmony’s eyes, protecting Willow means to never tell her that Nina Reeves is her biological mother and that she had a twin, Nelle.
For a while, fans were convinced that it would turn out Nelle wasn’t Nina’s daughter at all, but Harmony confirmed there were two babies- another half. The two halves explain the heart shaped pendant that Nelle had in her possession. Back when Willow came to visit Nina at her office, she mentioned that her mom, Harmony, packed lightly- insinuating that she had left things behind, which would explain how Nelle got the other half of the necklace.
Now Carly has been put in a position to honor Harmony’s final request to protect her daughter from Nina. What we thought would be a vengeful decision on Carly’s part, is actually turning out to be half selfless as she tries to keep her promise to Harmony.
General Hospital rumors claim the truth will come out sooner or later, in a possible storyline about a medical emergency. Willow’s fainting spells weee never explain. This could have been the writer’s way of setting up an illness for Willow in which she would need to turn to a biological relative to save her life. If Carly promised to always protect Willow, will she be forced to tell her Nina is her mom in order to save her life?
