Drew and Willow had another public flirtation on General Hospital. Despite fan outcry, it seems the GH writers are going full steam ahead with the romance, despite viewers calling it ‘disgusting.’ Keep reading for more.
Katelyn MacMullen Opens Up About Unexpected Kiss
GH viewers were shocked earlier this summer when Willow and Drew shared a kiss. But their portrayers – Katelyn MacMullen and Cameron Mathison – knew it was coming.
Soap Opera Digest chatted with the actress after the shocking kiss aired. She revealed that the actors were told ahead of time about the interaction.
“We did get a little heads-up. I think it was that Frank [Valentini, executive producer] came up to me and was like, “Just so you know, this is happening.” And I was like, “Okay! Let’s do it!’”
The actress reasons that Willow and Drew shared a bond. “I think the feelings they’ve been feeling towards each other and maybe have been denying just sort of caught up with them. But at the same time, she loves Michael very much,” she said of the kiss.
What Willow doesn’t know is that Drew had a secret affair with her mother, Nina (Cynthia Watros.) Willow eventually confessed to her mom about the smooch, though Nina didn’t reveal her own connection to Drew. Messy!
GH Fans Slam ‘Disgusting’ Willow & Drew Storyline
Drew and Willow vowed to keep their distance. But that didn’t last long. The official General Hospital Instagram shared a clip of Drew on the campaign trail, giving Willow a shoutout during his speech.
GH fans flooded the comment section with disdain for the storyline involving a huge age difference between Willow and Drew.
- No…just no…it’s so cringe…please don’t do this GH
- Stop with the creepiness of Willow and Drew
- Why is GH pushing a man in his mid 50s on a woman who not even in her 30s on viewers? Not to mention Drew is sleeping with her mother and slept with her mother in law.
- Worst / Gross storyline willow and Drew!!!
- Please stop with Drew and Willow. Ugh
- Absolutely terrible storyline!! Very uncomfortable to watch.
- Eww just eww with willow and drew yuck i fast forward it
- I’m not a fan of those two hooking up or making Michael look clueless
- So gross. I can’t believe they even entertained such a story.
As you can see, fans begged the show to drop the storyline. However, one GH fan speculated that Willow and Drew would sleep together, resulting in a pregnancy.
