In January, actress Katelyn MacMullen was on the Soap Opera Digest podcast, Dishing with Digest, discussing her career and her "General Hospital" character, Willow Tait. MacMullen explained that the mother/daughter reveal scenes were shot back to back, "which was helpful in a sense because we really got to just stay in that world." She added that everyone involved understood the importance of the story and worked hard to make it the best.
When asked if she was surprised that Willow forgave Carly so quickly after telling Nina how awful she was, MacMullen stated, "I was and I wasn't," citing some of the secrets that Willow has kept from Carly. MacMullen stated, "Had Carly known, I know for a fact she would have told me (Willow)," adding that she remembered Willow telling Carly that if it ever turned out Nina was her mother, she wouldn't want to know. She speculated that Carly was thinking, "This girl is pregnant ... and having a really hard time. (Carly) didn't know it was leukemia, so she didn't want to give this information and cause an upset or a faint, or whatever might happen with Willow." She again stated that Carly's actions made sense to Willow, especially since the two had grown close.
Regarding Willow's future, MacMullen skillfully teased, "You're not going to know what's going to happen and there's going to be some surprises."
