General Hospital Spoilers – The Character Robin Scorpio Was Introduced On General Hospital In 1985 And Was A Shock To Robert Scorpio

Robin Scorpio was introduced on General Hospital in 1985 and shocked Robert Scorpio as she walked in and said, “Hi, my name is Robin” and wore a fluffy bouffant dress and in short order, Robert found out he and Anna had a daughter that Anna had never told him about until they met when Robin was seven.

Robin would go on to live with her uncle Mac Scorpio (John J. York) and his wife Felicia Jones Scorpio (Kristina Wagner) and step cousins Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) and Georgie Jones (Lindze Letherman) as a teenager when Anna and Robert were presumed dead in an explosion, and was a central figure in a storyline about the then emerging disease of AIDS, where her first boyfriend Stone Cates (Michael Sutton) died in her arms and she herself contracted HIV.

As a result of that experience, Robin determined to fight the disease and became a doctor, and a brilliant one at that, developing many life-saving protocols for seriously ill patients over the years and even seemingly resurrecting one or two who were frozen and kept in stasis, including the rescue of who she thought was her presumed dead best friend Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) but it turned out to be his previously unknown twin Drew Cain (Billy Miller).

General Hospital fans will miss seeing Robin on General Hospital, but General Hospital spoilers wish her the best in her directing career! Stay tuned to GH and keep checking General Hospital spoilers for all the latest news, updates and developments!
