General Hospital recaps recall Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) headed off to Aruba for some professional development and personal insight.

Wright admits, “I think Carly realizes her world doesn’t revolve around Sonny,” Laura explained. “When I first started, Carly wanted Sonny back and her family together with him, no matter what, at all costs. It didn’t happen immediately — she fell in love with Jax for five or six years — and when she finally got back together with Sonny, it was like, ‘Right, this is what it should be.’
Laura goes on the describe Carly and Sonny’s connection as they went through life together. “There were family and life experiences that helped her evolve,” she stated. “They buried their son together and she was by Sonny’s side when his father took his last breath. I think life hands you situations and circumstances, especially once you have children, that force you to show up differently every day.”
Will Sonny and Carly Get Back Together?
Sonny and Carly were a team and neither could imagine life without the other. Until one day, Carly had no choice but to carry on alone in the life they built together. At that point Carly was grateful she had Jason to turn to. Then Sonny returned and for a moment the wrongs in her life were suddenly right.

Losing Sonny made her realize she’s capable of surviving and thriving without him. And if he wanted to choose his feelings for Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) over his wife and the life they had together then so be it.
“When Sonny fell off the bridge and Carly thought he was dead, that was a whole new world,” Wright confessed. “Sonny had amnesia, but they both had to figure out how to live without the other, and that really was the final shift, I think for Carly to realize, ‘I can do it on my own.’ And now she’s having to do it without Jason.”
“So I think the major change or evolution came in the last year and a half, when Sonny was presumed dead and he came back and didn’t choose her and their family, and Jason died,” Laura reminded. “The rug was truly pulled out from under her and she had to figure out how to rise again and stand on her own two feet. So I think you are really looking at a very different Carly.”
