Happy Birthday Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos) who is 65 today

“True love in Port Charles is never easy—but when it’s right, it’s unforgettable.”

That might as well be the golden rule for General Hospital, ABC’s longest-running daytime soap, which has spent over six decades spinning tales of explosive love, tragic separations, and destined reunions. At the heart of it all? The supercouples—those rare, electrifying duos whose chemistry sets screens ablaze and whose fans follow their every twist and turn like devoted apostles.

From the unforgettable ’80s spectacles to modern-day romances weathering lies and bullets, these ten pairings have defined what it means to fall in love on General Hospital. They’ve survived comas, mob hits, memory loss, affairs, and more resurrections than any mortal heart should withstand. Yet, through it all, their bond stayed strong—or at least memorable enough to earn a spot in daytime legend.

So, grab your tissues (and maybe a shot of Sonny’s finest bourbon), because we’re counting down the 10 greatest supercouples in GH history—ranked not just by romance, but by the battles they fought and the hearts they won.

10. Curtis Ashford & Portia Robinson: Healing Amid the Fallout
Curtis and Portia’s romance didn’t begin—it reignited. Years after a steamy affair during Portia’s marriage to Marcus, fate brought them back together.
Just as they prepared for happily ever after, Portia’s secret exploded: Curtis might be the biological father of her daughter, Trina.

The fallout was brutal. Yet, love tried to mend the cracks. Their wedding day, meant to mark a new beginning, was stained by tragedy when Curtis was shot and paralyzed. Still, Portia stayed by his side, helping him heal emotionally and physically. Their love is quiet but resilient—a modern GH romance that proves commitment isn’t just about passion, but perseverance.General Hospital's Maurice Benard Pays Tribute On Wedding Anniversary

9. Nikolas Cassadine & Emily Quartermaine: The Prince and the Phoenix
On paper, they were from two completely different worlds—Emily, the golden-hearted Quartermaine, and Nikolas, the brooding Cassadine prince. But love has no pedigree. When Emily was diagnosed with cancer, Nikolas became her rock, and their friendship blossomed into romance.

Tragedy struck when Emily was murdered, leaving Nikolas emotionally shattered. But she never really left—her ghost haunted his mind, symbolizing a love so deep it transcended death. Nikolas could never truly move on, and fans never truly let go. Their bittersweet legacy remains one of GH’s most hauntingly beautiful love stories.
