General Hospital spoilers tease that Michael Corinthos will face a new problem. Both Willow Corinthos and Sasha Gilmore are pregnant with Michael’s child, and he won’t know which woman to leave behind. Recently, Michael discovered that Willow kissed Drew Cain, and the revelation ignited a fury in him. Feeling betrayed, Michael stormed into a bar to vent his frustration. There, he ran into Sasha, a friend who was going through her own struggles.
As the evening progressed, one drink led to another, and the two found solace in each other. Emotions ran high, and in a moment of impulsive release, Michael and Sasha spent the night together. At the time, neither of them knew that this night would set off a chain of consequences from which they would have no escape.
It wasn’t long before Sasha discovered she was pregnant, and while it was shocking, there was no doubt that Michael was the father. As Michael struggled with the aftermath of his night with Sasha, he discovered another bombshell — this time involving Willow and Drew. Through a hidden camera, Michael witnessed a scene that left him reeling; he saw Willow and Drew undressing together in what seemed like a very intimate moment. Betrayal washed over him once again, but Michael decided to keep quiet and chose to keep the secret to himself rather than confront Willow right away.
Complicating things further, Willow soon approached Michael and tried to mend their relationship. They spent a night together, a night that Willow believed could bring them closer. Ironically, that night led to another life-changing event when Willow discovered she was also pregnant.
Michael is now caught in a dilemma more complicated than he ever expected. With Willow pregnant, Michael’s thoughts are filled with doubt and confusion. Who is the father of Willow’s child — Michael or Drew? Uncertainty gnaws at him, a shadow hanging over his every thought. His situation is further complicated by the fact that Sasha, who is also expecting his child, has now become more deeply entwined in Michael’s chaotic world.
Despite his hesitation, Michael finally decides that a paternity test is necessary to determine the father of Willow’s child. After a series of tense days filled with anxiety and disbelief, the results come back, confirming that Michael is indeed the father of Willow’s unborn child. However, this revelation, instead of bringing peace, only deepens his turmoil. Although the confirmation allays his fears that Drew is involved with Willow’s child, it also means he is now responsible for two unborn children — one with his wife Willow, and the other with Sasha.
Now faced with two lives he helped create, Michael is at a crossroads. He knows he will have to make some incredibly difficult choices, choices that will affect not only his life but the lives of those closest to him. He can try to save his marriage to Willow despite their rocky foundation and past betrayals. Staying with Willow could provide their child with a stable family structure, a home built on the hope that they can move past their mistakes and rebuild trust.
But doing so would mean letting down Sasha, a woman who has been drawn into Michael’s world at a difficult time of her own. Michael may also consider a future with Sasha; this choice would mean a radical life change, one that would require him to leave Willow and try to build something new with Sasha, co-parenting the child they conceived on that vulnerable night. Sasha would also be affected by this decision, needing to decide whether she could forgive Michael for his lingering attachment to Willow and accept that her relationship with him might always carry the burden of his past.
