General Hospital’s Laura Wright and Wes Ramsey Partake of an Altogether Different Kind of ‘Courting’: ‘OMG, OMG, OMG!’
Thursday, September 8th, 2022

Things must be good if the Daytime Emmy Award-winning actress “can barely breathe.”
Those who follow General Hospital’s Laura Wright (Carly) on social media know that she is a big tennis fan and last week she posted a photo with longtime boyfriend and former castmate Wes Ramsey (ex-Peter) from the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Queens, New York City.
“We had the best day at the US Open,” Wright shared then thanked The United States Tennis Association (USTA), which helps to promote and develop the growth of tennis on every level in the country.

Before that, a fan spotted Wright and Ramsey as the camera panned into the crowd while watching a match from home and stated, “I see you Laura Wright,” to which the actress replied, “The best!”

And even posted a couple of photos of her and her “shaggy girl,” Kimba, enjoying a boat ride on the lake.
However, it was last night that had kept Wright on her toes because while watching the US Open she could “barely breathe!”

<p>When Laura Wright made her daytime debut as Ally Rescott on <em>Loving</em> in 1991, she was just a fresh-faced kid — with a blindingly bright future!</p>
<p>The former Laura Sisk couldn’t hide her elegant side any more than she could those enviable cheekbones. And why would she?</p>
<p><em>Loving</em> struck pay dirt with the pairing of Wright’s Ally and future <em>Guiding Light</em> co-star Paul Anthony Stewart’s Casey Bowman.</p>
<p>Casey being a hot commodity and all, Ally had to fend off any number of interlopers, among them Rebecca Gayheart’s Hannah Mayberry.</p>
<p>You can see how Wright had Ally react to Hannah’s interest in her other love interest, <em>Bull</em> leading man Michael Weatherly’s Coop Alden. It was a whole thing.</p>
<p>Obviously, Ally was the better choice for Coop. When you can generate this kind of chemistry in nothing more than still photos? C’mon. </p>
<p>When ABC remixed <em>Loving</em> as <em>The City </em>in 1995, MVP Wright was one of the few cast members that was invited to cross over.</p>
<p>Front and center on the “new” show were not only Wright but another future Emmy winner, Amelia Heinle (now <em>Young & Restless</em>’ Victoria).</p>
<p>Years before Wright became Carly Corinthos No. 4 on <em>General Hospital</em>, her <em>City</em> love interest was Ted King, who’d eventually play Port Charles’ Alcazar twins.</p>
<p>After <em>The City</em> was cancelled in 1997, Wright was scooped up by<em> Guiding Light</em> to play Reva Shayne’s surprise sister, stripper Cassie Layne.</p>
<p><em>Guiding Light</em> thrust Wright into a love triangle with Dinah Marler (<em>Yellowstone</em> star Wendy Moniz) and Hart Jessup (Frank Grillo of <em>Captain America</em> fame).</p>
<p>Against all odds, in 2000, Cassie became kinda-sorta the Princess Diana of San Cristobel. All she had to do was say…</p>
<p>There were no glass slippers involved, but <em>Guiding Light</em> did indeed give Cassie her own Prince Charming — Bradley Cole’s Richard Winslow.</p>
<p>… Cassie probably would have had a rap sheet a mile long.</p>
<p>Upon leaving behind the role of Cassie, Wright succeeded Sarah Joy Brown, Tamara Braun and Jennifer Bransford as Carly on <em>General Hospital.</em></p>
<p>Years after Wright joined the soap, she finally got to throw sparks with Maurice Benard, whose Sonny Corinthos had had heavy story with all the other Carlys.</p>
<p>Though Wright’s real-life boo — <em>Guiding Light</em> alum Wes Ramsey — played Peter August on <em>General Hospital</em> for years, their characters were never paired.</p>
<p>Nope. As in this 2010 photo, Wright elevates the little black dress into a very big deal. Style for miles.</p>
<p>“Duck” all you like, there’s no missing the sweetness of these shots of Wright with a couple of fine, feathered friends.</p>
<p>All that glittered on the fall day that Carly married bestie Jason Morgan with kids Josslyn and Michael by her side… was the bride herself.</p>
