Where Is Trina? Tabyana Ali Speaks Out About General Hospital Status
In January of this year, Spencer Cassadine was presumed dead after falling off a Parisian riverboat along with Esme Prince. Since then, poor Trina Robinson has been on the back burner.
What Happened To Trina?
It’s been nine months since Spencer’s alleged death and Trina still does not have a storyline or a new man. While it’s normal for Trina to grieve, we haven’t really seen her going through the process. Instead, she talks about it maybe once a month and then goes back to being Josslyn’s trusty sidekick.
When Tabyana Ali appeared on State of Mind with Maurice Benard on October 6, the actor who plays Sonny Corinthos asked her why Trina hasn’t been around much.
“I’m just kind of in the gray zone at the moment which, that’s fine,” Ali answered. “I think I’m just kind of observing everybody else’s trials and tribulations. Trina is I guess in the process of coming out of grieving.”
Trina has recently decided to go back to college after taking last semester off but she is still lonely. There seemed to be a possibility of a friendship-turned-romance with Gio, but that appears to have fallen by the wayside.
Ali is pragmatic about it and understands her character is going through some things this year.
“It’s your soulmate who dies, you aren’t gonna get over that tomorrow. right? I think it’s just this whole time this has been a lot about Spencer and my (Trina) grieving and just figuring out what I’m going to do for the future, and what are my next steps and how am I going to be okay with that,” Ali said.
Of course, Spencer might not be dead after all as his body was never found. That’s a twist that would be sure to make Trina happy.
