Everyone was furious when the truth about Nina withholding Sonny from his family came out. Carly, in particular, had the biggest grudge against her. Her dishonesty almost led to her marrying Sonny's best friend (and right-hand man), Jason Morgan (Steve Burton). Suppose Sonny hadn't walked in on Jason and Carly about to kiss in the bedroom (via Michael Fairman TV). In that case, it's a safe assumption that they were on their way to consummating their sham marriage.

Once Sonny came to terms with what happened to him and what Nina's lies cost him, he ripped into her. He gave her everything he had, but according to Maurice Benard, it's not good enough for some fans. During a recent episode of his "State of Mind" podcast, he commented on this. "I don't know what they want me to do," Benard said, "like what hit her, grab her and throw her down? I don't know."

Despite Sonny's reaction to Nina's secrets and lies, fans are conflicted on which woman holds the key to Sonny's heart. Should he patch things up with Carly, or does he have a new future with Nina? Bernard is dishing about that as well.
