New Update ! CBS Legend Passes Away! General Hospital Jason and Carly died, Very Heartbreaking News!
💔 CBS Star’s Shocking Health Setback! “General Hospital” Favorite Battles Pain Behind the Scenes
Heartbreaking developments are unfolding behind the scenes at “General Hospital,” as longtime fan favorites Jason and Carly face emotional turbulence — not just on-screen, but in real life.
In a week already filled with dramatic twists on-screen, fans were stunned to learn of an unexpected real-life injury affecting beloved actress Laura Wright, who portrays the iconic Carly Corinthos.
Though Jason and Sonny recently joked that Carly can’t cook, Wright’s character is known for baking — but even that has been on pause. The reason? A sudden and painful knee injury that’s impacted both Wright’s personal life and her performance on set.
Wright revealed the incident happened during a friendly game of pickleball. “I felt my knee pop out — and then back in,” she explained to Soap Opera Digest. At first, she thought it was nothing serious, but upon returning to work, the pain returned with a vengeance.
“I could walk fine in a straight line,” Wright shared, “but any sideways motion — just like in pickleball — would trigger that pain again.” The injury grew worse, just as she was scheduled to film pivotal kitchen scenes opposite Maurice Benard (Sonny). During filming, her knee gave out again, leaving her in agony.
“It hurt so badly,” Wright recalled. “I just went down. I couldn’t even get up properly.” The production crew quickly adjusted the camera blocking, placing Carly on a stool for several episodes — a move that caught fans’ attention and now makes perfect sense.
While her on-screen character remained seated in her kitchen, off-screen, Wright was fighting through real pain.
Thankfully, Wright says she’s recovering and plans to modify her athletic routine to avoid future injuries. Meanwhile, Carly is back on her feet and ready for a major plot twist: This week, she’s set to uncover a shocking secret through Lulu (Alexa Havins) — a secret that her closest ally, Jason (Steve Burton), will absolutely need to hear.
As soap opera life blends with real-life challenges, fans continue to rally around Wright and her resilience. Stay tuned — both on-screen and behind the curtain — because the drama is far from over.
