Robert was clueless that there was even a chance he had a child he didn’t know about, since Holly Sutton (Emma Samms) never revealed she had a daughter.
Now that she’s coming out of the closet on that front, we have to question whether Robert is her safe cover story — and a means to securing a bond with him that she has itched for for so long.
But could her coming clean to Felicia Scorpio (Kristina Wagner) and Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) just be a way of her setting up this narrative to work in her favor so that Sasha’s real father — Mac Scoprio (John J. York) — doesn’t suspect Sasha is his child?
General Hospital Spoilers — The Affair That Started It All
While some fans may get their panties in a twist over this theory, it tracks well with Holly’s personal record of scheming, lying, and cons.
When Holly suddenly declared she had a son named Ethan Lovett (James Ryan), many fans were disappointed that he turned out to be Luke Spencer’s (Anthony Geary) son. Why?
Because Luke and Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) were the power couple to end all power couples. They were the biggest love story to ever come out of GH and suddenly we were forced to accept that Luke randomly cheated on Laura with Holly years prior.
So, is it out of sorts for Holly to stick her nose into someone else’s marriage — or for her to suddenly have a child with a happily married man? Nope. So don’t be surprised if it turns out Sasha is actually Mac’s daughter, not Robert’s.
GH Spoilers – Claim The Results Are In
Holly told Robert that when the DNA test comes back confirming Sasha is a match with him, that their daughter will hate her more than ever for taking Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) away from her.
What if sending the message that she’s a Scorpio was the best she could do without blowing up everyone’s lives?
What if letting her know she was kissing her cousin was easier than saying she was jumping into bed with her brother? We know, we know. No one wants to hear this.
Still, it’s possible that Mac’s recent distaste for Holly is also because he doesn’t want her coming around and hanging out with his wife — who would have no idea they ever hooked up behind her back.
ay it ain’t so! Can Holly pull off fudging a DNA test to make Sasha’s uncle look like her dad? You betcha!

Still, as Robert mulls over the details of his past interactions with Holly, he may come to question how this happened and how he could be Sasha’s father. Sharing those questions with Mac could stir the pot and lead him to believe Sasha might be his daughter instead.
Was this the only way Holly could warn Sasha of her relation to Cody without shattering Mac and Felicia’s marriage? Keep checking back for more GH news and spoilers just ahead.
