‘General Hospital’s’ Maurice Benard Teases Sonny and ADA Turner Romance, “It’s Starting to Get Kind of Interesting”

As pointed out by three-time Daytime Emmy winner, Maurice Benard, during his sit-down appearance on Richard Taite’s Were Out of Time podcast, General Hospital’s Sonny Corinthos hasn’t had a “chick in a longtime,” least of all in his bed.

However, during the conversation with the mental health and wellness advocate, that dropped this week on You Tube, Benard shares that he does have a love interest on the horizon. “Her name is Nazneen Contractor and she plays a ADA (Justine) Turner. She’s the DA and I’m the mobster. It’s starting to get kind of interesting.”

As viewers know in an ironic twist, Contractor is the real-life wife of Carlo Rota, who plays Sonny’s nemesis, Jenz Sidwell; the man who is trying to take everything from him, including the Port Charles territory and so much more. Sidwell has been revealed to now have ties to the notorious Cesar Faison (Anders Hove), who up to this point is believed to be dead.

Throughout his over 32-years as Sonny, Benard as the loveable mobster, has been part of some of soaps historic love stories. Chief among them Sonny and Brenda, (“He always leave me standing in the rain”) and the multiple faces of Carly.

Benard commented on some of the great loves of Sonny: “I’ve had Sonny and Brenda (Vanessa Marcil), They were a big couple, and then Sonny and Carly, a big couple. I did Sonny/Carly (relationship) with three different actresses (Sarah Brown, Tamara Braun and Laura Wright).”
