“I was like, ‘Oh, my gosh, this is so scandalous, I love it!'” MacMullen exclaimed, recalling her initial reaction to the script. The actress acknowledged the immense pressure Willow faced to maintain the facade of a happy marriage while harboring a deep-seated guilt. “She’s still feeling drawn to Drew on the one hand, and on the other, she has to pretend, she has to maintain this lie that nothing has happened between them, which is stressful and obviously leads to her feeling guilty and ashamed,” MacMullen explained.
The revelation has not only strained Willow’s marriage to Michael but has also significantly impacted her relationship with Carly Corinthos. MacMullen relished the opportunity to explore this dynamic, sharing, “I am having fun playing that tension with Laura Wright [who plays Carly]. We really get to hash it out and fight it out, and I remember leaving set on the days where we’ve had blow-out fights going, ‘That was freaking awesome!'”
However, the emotional turmoil extends beyond the interpersonal conflicts. When asked about Willow’s future and her feelings for both Michael and Drew, MacMullen offered a poignant observation: “I think that right now, she would literally say, ‘I don’t know what I want, and that’s what’s driving me crazy.'”
Willow is grappling with a complex web of emotions. She is consumed by guilt, fear of losing her family, and a lingering attraction to Drew. This internal conflict, coupled with the public humiliation she has endured, has left her deeply confused and uncertain about her future.
MacMullen’s insights provide a fascinating glimpse into the complexities of Willow’s character and the challenges she faces as she navigates this tumultuous period. As the story unfolds, viewers can expect to witness Willow’s journey of self-discovery as she attempts to reconcile her conflicting emotions and find a path forward.
