General Hospital fans, buckle up — a new romance may finally be heating up in Port Charles. Actress Justine Turner recently opened up about the growing chemistry between her character, ADA Turner, and none other than Sonny Corinthos. With sparks already flying, she promises fans that this story is only just beginning.
A Role That Grew Beyond Expectations
When Justine Turner first stepped into the world of General Hospital, the role of ADA Turner was only supposed to last for a short courtroom stint. She first appeared while prosecuting Ava Jerome for allegedly pushing Kristina Corinthos out a window. But things quickly shifted. Turner has since become a steady force in Port Charles, climbing the ranks to acting district attorney and entangling herself in some of the soap’s most powerful storylines.
Looking back, Turner couldn’t be more thrilled. “Every month of 2025, I’ve been back on that show, prosecuting someone, investigating someone, and now I’ve become the acting district attorney, which is just amazing,” she said. What was once temporary has turned into a major chapter in the GH universe.
Chemistry in the Courtroom and Beyond
What’s surprising fans the most is ADA Turner’s complicated connection to Sonny Corinthos. Known for her relentless determination to bring down the mob boss, Turner’s resolve has softened as she learns more about the man behind the reputation. Their recent playful and intense exchanges have many viewers speculating that romance is on the horizon.
Turner herself acknowledged the electricity. “Working with Maurice [Benard] is great. He is very present, and I don’t really know what he’s going to do, so it really forces me to be extremely open and very in the moment. I love that,” she said.
She went on to add, “I like the cat-and-mouse aspect of it. Justine is determined to take him down, but obviously, in that process, she’s seeing a different side of him. It’s fun for Justine to discover he’s not entirely what he appears to be.”
General Hospital: A New Romance for Sonny?
For longtime fans protective of Sonny, the idea of him pairing with his prosecutor may feel like dangerous territory. But Turner urges viewers to trust the story. “There’s a lot more to Turner than meets the eye,” she teased. “Give her a chance.”
That chance might mean watching a once adversarial relationship turn into something deeper, something laced with both passion and risk. Could ADA Turner be the one to finally challenge Sonny in a way no one else has? Or will her loyalty to justice stop their chemistry before it ever truly begins
The possibility of a new romance between Sonny and ADA Turner is already shaking up General Hospital. Justine Turner’s teases make it clear — this cat-and-mouse chase is only getting started. Fans will have to stay patient, but all signs point to a sizzling storyline ahead. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more General Hospital updates, spoilers, and behind-the-scenes buzz.
