General Hospital fans can’t stop speculating about actress Kelly Monaco’s upcoming departure. However, there’s another storyline that just took a juicy turn. Holly (Emma Samms) was revealed to the audience as Sasha’s (Sofia Mattsson) mother. She returned to Port Charles with a dire warning for her daughter to break up with Cody (Josh Kelly) immediately. The reason why shocked both Sasha and the audience: Holly claimed that Cody and Sasha are related and therefore, cannot date. What’s next for the former couple after the shocking paternity secret?
Who Is Sasha’s Father?
If Holly is Sasha’s mother, who is her father? The answer came when Holly revealed the blood ties between her daughter and Cody. She claimed that the two were actually cousins. It was revealed in 2022 that Mac Scorpio (John J. York) was Cody’s biological father. That means Sasha’s bio dad is Mac’s brother, Robert Scorpio (Tristan Rogers.)
Holly and Robert have a long and storied history together. Fans might recall that Holly previously claimed that Robert was her son Ethan’s father, but later admitted Luke was the dad.

Viewers of the soap were thrown for a loop by Holly’s revelation. In fact, many of them don’t believe it at all. Sasha previously had a DNA test done in connection with Cody’s paternity, so fans wonder why the familial match didn’t show up on that DNA test.
Why would Holly make up such a tale? Robert is the love of her life and has always been the one who got away. Fans speculate that Robert is the con woman’s latest mark with the bombshell paternity secret.
What’s Next For Sasha & Cody After Shocking Secret?
If Sasha takes her mother’s word for it, where does that leave her growing romance with Cody? One viewer took to Reddit to spark a discussion on whether the (alleged) cousins will stay together. They asked, “Will they continue their relationship yet vow to not have biological children? And adopt needy children ?”
GH fans were divided on how the storyline should play out. Check out some of the responses:
- “Don’t you all think it’s different if they didn’t know each other growing up, and just found out they were cousins?”
- “I don’t have a problem with it”
- “So many of you are just cool with INCEST! This explains so much.”
- “is there really an ick factor if they had no idea and didn’t grow up together? neither knew their fraternal lineage and so just don’t have kids, right”
- “I can’t imagine the show taking the path to keep them together.”
- “Well, it’s a little ick, but it’s not technically incest, though it is bad for any children because the bloodlines could cause a lot of problems with their health.”
- “I don’t think they’re going to stay together, but yeah, they could. I just see this as leading to some drama, finally.”
- “It will end up Robert isn’t Sasha’s father. This is such a pulled out of their a** storyline.”
Do you think Sasha and Cody should stay together despite the paternity shocker?
