‘General Hospital’ (GH) spoilers disclose that though Gladys Corbin (Bonnie Burroughs) sang her swan song to Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard), she was allowed to live. However, Sonny sent her back to Bridgeport without so much as a suitcase to bring with her.
Many fans thought (and rightfully so) that the character Gladys didn’t get the punishment she deserved. She put Sasha Corbin (Sofia Mattsson) in danger by setting her up with Dr. Montague (Darin Toonder) and his evil scheme.
‘General Hospital’ Spoilers: No Turning Back
Gladys seemed like she might be feeling bad about what she did when Sasha confronted her, but when Gladys lied to Sasha’s face and agreed to go to the police and confess, she walked right out of the room and called the cops to take Sasha right back to Ferncliff.
Gladys was also aware that Dr. Montague wanted to kill her. At that point, there was no turning back for Gladys. There is no shot at redemption whatsoever.
Why would Sonny, who is known to “take care” of those who are disloyal to him, allow Gladys to go off to live her life in Bridgeport and let her get away with what she did to Sasha?
Fans are left feeling robbed of seeing Sasha get her justice. That being said, Bonnie Burroughs is a fantastic talent, and she perfectly played the character you love to hate.
Fans would certainly welcome her back. It looks like executive producer Frank Valentini left it open-ended for a reason. Maybe he will bring her back for some time in the future.
Burroughs conversed with Soap Opera Digest and reflected on her time at General Hospital. Bonnie said, “I’m attracted to characters who are messy. Gladys is a liar and has never been a fully mature, well-functioning adult. She couldn’t get her act together when it was terrible, and it was all about self-preservation at the expense of Sasha’s well-being.”
‘General Hospital’ Spoilers: Burroughs Made Us Hate Gladys
The character of Gladys came to Port Charles in July 2019. She appeared on the show sporadically, making a few appearances here and there. She came back briefly in January 2020 and then again in March 2021.
Then, in 2022, she procured the storyline leading to the character’s exit. She started stealing Sasha’s money to gamble and pay off her gambling debts.
She also conspired with Dr. Montague to get Sasha back on drugs. All this so she could continue the guardianship that allowed her access and control over Sasha’s money.
The storyline continued until October 5, 2023, when Gladys was finally run out of town by Sonny, who called her bluff.
Before Burroughs entered General Hospital, she played Stacey Giordano on One Life to Live for a few months in 1987.
Interestingly, Burroughs was only supposed to be on GH for a few days but remained a fixture on the GH canvas for four years.
As far as Gladys’s comeuppance, Burroughs said, “She had something coming. When I got the script, where she was coming clean with Sasha and genuinely apologizing and then turning her into the cops, I thought, oh, no, that’s terrible.”
Burroughs did great with the story and made us despise Gladys Corbin.
