General Hospital Spoilers: Willow Stays With Michael After Custody Battle Is Over, Or Couple Splits?

By William Blesch

General Hospital: Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen)General Hospital (GH) spoilers suggest that even following the custody battle for Wiley Cooper-Jones (Erik and Theo Olson), Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) will not control her own destiny. GH fans know that for her entire life, someone else has always been pulling Willow’s strings, and she’s danced like the puppet she is.

General Hospital Spoilers – Willow Tait Has to Think

Ouch. That’s a painful thing to consider, “Willow thinking.” Some GH viewers might swear that Willow’s never had an original thought in her brain since the day she came screaming into this world. Certainly, Willow’s never exercised true free will. Willow has allowed others to manipulate her entire existence and every action from day one. What makes anyone believe that Willow will have the wherewithal to select her own life path once Wiley is safely in Michael Corinthos’s (Chad Duell) arms?

Everyone seems to want Michael and Willow to fall in love, make a family, and live happily ever after with Wiley as their connection and shared prize. For a zombie-like Willow who has the mental capacity of a sponge, maybe that’s the best option. Other GH fans, however, feel like throwing up at the mere idea of this forced “Michael and Willow must marry because … Wiley” plot. Moreover, the fact that these fans are outraged shouldn’t come as a surprise since the story has all the characteristics of bad writing, and literally zero attributes that capture the heart or mind.

GH Spoilers – If Willow Tait Thinks

If the powers that be allow Willow to have a thought of her own, some GH fans wonder what that might be. Following a victory in court, can Willow truly envision life as the wife of a stuffed shirt like Michael? Michael and Willow might seem to make a good pair considering the fact that both are brainless and easily manipulated (shows the benefits of being born into a wealthy family, eh?), but then who would decide what to make for breakfast?

Sure, Willow would never worry again about money, but it’s not likely that a loyal woman like her would find a passionate lover on the side. Is Willow to live forever with a passionless robot for a husband? Oops, that may not matter much since it’s already been established that Willow is pretty much a zombie all by herself.

Alright then, Robot and Zombie love aside, if Willow actually thinks for herself even one time she might consider choosing a life that’s beneficial to her own romantic future and overall independence.

General Hospital Spoilers – What Does Willow Tait’s Independence Look Like?

Some GH fans might well ask themselves why Willow needs a man at all. Sure, she’s probably never known what life is like without some kind of manly security blanket … and if that was Willow’s own choice, no problem. However, some believe that Willow ought to take a step back from the Corinthos family, from Michael … maybe even from Wiley in the near future.

Willow needs to discover who she is apart from everyone and everything else. Willow needs to develop inner strength, mental clarity, fortitude, and overall confidence in herself. It’s the whole cliché … Willow needs to be whole with herself before she can be the life-partner someone needs her to be.

Honestly, if Willow ever had a fresh thought in her brain she’d go running back to Chase. She’d divorce Michael post haste, have the marriage annulled, leave Port Charles entirely, strike out for a role in the Peace Corps, become an activist to save whales, anything but stay tied to the drudgery of existence with Michael Corinthos as her husband.
