Character History

Holly was introduced when Luke met her during a camping trip. He saw her skinny dipping and was immediately smitten. They ended up having a one night stand. Little did Luke know, Holly set the whole thing up. Holly played a principle role in an oil scam designed to bilk the citizens of Port Charles out of millions. Luke refused to believe that Holly was a professional grifter and went to great lengths to prove she was innocent but eventually Holly was forced to admit the truth. When Holly helped Luke to bring down her family, Holly was kidnapped. Luke and Robert Scorpio traveled to Vancouver Columbia to rescue Holly and recover the money stolen by her ex-cohorts. Still hurt over Holly's deception and unable to fully trust her, Luke and Holly ended up having a terrible argument. In a fit of anger, Luke packed his things and headed to the mountains. Shortly afterwards, news arrived that there had been an avalanche. Luke was presumed dead. Actually, Luke had broken his back and was recuperating in a remote hospital. Then Holly discovered that she was pregnant with Luke's child and about to be deported. To honor Luke's memory, Robert offered to marry Holly and help raise Luke's child. Unfortunately, soon after the wedding Holly suffered a miscarriage.

Both Robert and Holly were shocked and dismayed when Luke returned alive and well. Luke was deeply hurt to find out his best friend and his ex-lover not only married but had fallen for each other. His disappointment was short-lived however; later that year Luke was elected mayor, Laura returned to Port Charles and to her true love Luke.

In 1985, Anna Devane came to town and struck up a friendship with Holly. Holly was shocked to learn that her friend shared a past with Robert. After discovering Robert and Anna were former WSB partners, Holly insisted on knowing the truth. Holly thought the only thing Robert was concealing was his guilt over Anna's scar. She was baffled when he revealed that Anna was his wife! Reeling from Robert's confession, she stormed out of their penthouse and headed for London, determined to stay away from Robert for good! Eventually they reconciled and decided to move to Australia. They were about to leave Robert found a young girl in his home. Much to his dismay Robert learned that the young girl was his daughter, Robin whom Anna kept hidden. When Robin overheard Anna and Robert talking, she realized that they were her parents. Hurt and confused, she ran away and ended up in General Hospital where she was later kidnapped after she found some precious black pearls. Robert and Anna eventually found her. Finally, Robert left for Australia to be with Holly.

He returned in 1987 with the sad news that Holly had been killed in a plane crash. In 1992 after Robert and Anna married, Holly returned to Port Charles. It turns out that she had been in a car accident and had been in a coma. Realizing that Robert was still carrying a torch for Anna, Holly yet again decided to keep her distance.

Before going in search after his kidnapped "wife" Anna, Robert had divorce papers drawn up to dissolve his marriage to Holly. However, after his and Anna's death, Holly tore up the divorce papers, helped Mac care for Robin for a while and dated Bill Eckert, Luke's look-alike cousin, before leaving Port Charles in 1993. She briefly returned in 2006 demanding a huge payout for the antidote for a mutant strain of encephalitis that infected several residents of Port Charles.
