Laura Wright Was Married to Architect John Wright – They Divorced in 2016

Actress Laura Wright is best known for her 17-year role in "General Hospital" as Carly Corinthos, a Mafia boss's wife. In real life, she was married to architect John Wright for 21 years.

Bubbly blond beauty Laura Wright has been a favorite of "General Hospital" fans as the scheming wife of mobster Sonny Corinthos. In real life, the actress was married for 21 years and had two children.

Laura Wright's husband was architect John Wright, and when their marriage started disintegrating in 2014, she was devastated. She never imagined that she had already met the man she'd fallen in love with three years later.

Laura Wright was born on September 11, 1970, in Washington, DC, and at the age of 25, she married her high school sweetheart, John Wright. The couple welcomed daughter Lauren on November 16, 1998, and son John on December 20, 2000.

Her break came in 1991 when she landed the role of Ally Rescott Bowman in ABC's daytime soap, "Loving." It was the beginning of Laura's burgeoning career, and she balanced her role as mother and wife with the increasing demands of her acting career.

Laura revealed that author Glennon Doyle's book "Love Warrior" empowered her to move past the pain, loss, and feelings of failure.

In 2005, she took on the role that would define her career, that of Carly Corinthos, opposite actor Maurice Bernard who played her mobster husband. While the fictional Carly and Sonny Corinthos' marriage was rock solid, in real life, Laura and John drifted apart.

They Were Married for 21 Years

In 2014, at 44, with her oldest daughter going off to college, Laura found herself separated from her husband. She admitted that her first reaction was fear and panic. She wanted to hold on to her family and marriage, whatever the cost. She confessed:

“I was ashamed that I was getting divorced, ashamed that my marriage didn’t work out, ashamed that I didn’t know if I’d ever be wanted again."

John and Laura divorced in 2016, but the actress still imagined a reconciliation three years after the separation. Then, during a family get-together in 2017, Laura realized she'd moved past wanting to return to the past.

Laura revealed that author Glennon Doyle's book "Love Warrior" empowered her to move past the pain, loss, and feelings of failure, embrace her anger -- and finally let go of it. It was then that her transformation began.

During a conversation with her ex-husband, Laura realized he was no longer "her person." She had outgrown him; they were moving in different directions, ad all they had in common was their love for their children.

Laura Is Dating Her Former Co-star

Three weeks after the revelation, Laura ran into an ex-co-star from "Guiding Light," Wes Ramsey, at a 2017 Emmys after-party. Ramsey had just joined the "General Hospital" cast as the villain Peter August​​​​.

Unbeknownst to Laura, Ramsey had a crush on her back in 2000, but she was married and expecting a child. Discovering that she was divorced, Ramsey immediately asked her out on a date. At first, Laura was hesitant since Ramsey was seven years her junior, but they proved to be a perfect match.

Wes Once Shared a Sweet Tribute to Laura

Ramsey and Laura have been inseparable since 2017, and the actress revealed that he is part of the family. She, Ramsey, her children, and her ex-husband get together and interact in perfect harmony. On her birthday, Ramsey posted a loving tribute on his Instagram:

"Another magical year around the sun my darling & you're still shining so bright! May the gift of life & love continue to bless you with the laughter & strength & drive that define you & inspire others! Thank you for sharing your warmth with the world... Happy birthday baby!❤🧡💛"

After her long and arduous journey, Laura Wright has finally arrived at her happily-ever-after.
