From ABC (except for last sentence) The original girl from the wrong side of the tracks, this hooker-turned-nurse has looked at life from both sides now. Bobbie's divorce from Stefan Cassadine, brother Luke Spencer's archenemy, has helped maintain her lingering feelings for her ex-husband, Dr. Tony Jones. In order to win away Scotty Baldwin from Laura Webber, Bobbie pretended to be pregnant with his child. Bobbie's engagement to mob goon Roy DiLucca ended when he was killed while trying to perform a hit for her brother, Luke. Even after Bobbie faked blindness to hold the attention of Dr. Noah Drake, the playboy left her. Bobbie's first husband, D.L. Brock, whom she married in 1983, became abusive and was murdered (but not by Bobbie). Bobbie's attorney, Jake Meyer, became her second husband in 1986. After Jake had a one-night stand with Lucy Coe, Bobbie married Lucy's ex-husband and her own dear friend, Dr. Tony Jones, in 1989. After Bobbie and Tony's daughter, B.J., was killed, their marriage began to disintegrate. After Bobbie walked in on Tony in bed with younger woman Carly Roberts, she got herself a divorce - and a new husband, Stefan Cassadine! Stefan divorced Bobbie after he caught her helping Luke. To look at Bobbie Spencer now, it's hard to believe that she ever was the girl that she, in fact, was - a street kid who ate out of garbage cans and turned tricks to put some money in her pocket. But Bobbie hasn't forgotten, not for a minute. That's why she refuses to let go of what she treasures most in her life: her relationship with her former husband, Dr. Tony Jones. When Bobbie landed in Port Charles, the plucky student nurse developed a serious crush on law student Scotty Baldwin. Unfortunately, though Scotty would occasionally sleep with Bobbie, his heart belonged to good girl Laura Webber. In an attempt to land him for herself, Bobbie pretended to be pregnant. Laura's mother, Dr. Lesley Webber, foiled her scheme only days before Bobbie was to have become Mrs. Scotty Baldwin. Bobbie next became engaged to mob flunky Roy DiLucca. He was able to get past her past as a hooker, but before they could marry, he was killed performing a suicide mission for her brother, Luke Spencer. Next, Bobbie got involved in a hospital romance with playboy Dr. Noah Drake. Unable to get a commitment out of him, Bobbie faked blindness. Again, her scheme backfired. Noah told her he didn't love her, with or without her sight. Financier D.L. Brock finally made an honest woman of Bobbie in 1983. But theirs was a rocky relationship. Brock became more and more abusive - even physically - toward Bobbie. When he was murdered, she was accused of pulling the trigger, but her attorney, Jake Meyer, got the charges dropped. (She was innocent, after all.) Bobbie would have gotten involved with Jake, but she had sworn off men. Still, they got along famously and spent all of their time together remodeling the brownstone. Finally, in 1986, they married. Divorce came only a few years later, after Scotty returned to Port Charles and made a play for Bobbie, and schemer Lucy Coe seduced Jake into a one-night stand. In 1989, when Bobbie adopted Cheryl Stansbury's son, Lucas, she became what she never thought she would: a mother. That same year, Bobbie's friendship with Dr. Tony Jones blossomed into something more - love. Together with his daughter, B.J. (with his late wife, Tania), and Lucas, the couple formed a tight-knit family unit. But tragedy was just around the bend. In 1994, B.J. was killed in a terrible bus accident that sent her parents reeling. Bobbie succumbed to the advances of mobster Damian Smith, and in 1996, Tony finally awoke emotionally with nursing student Carly Roberts, who, unbeknownst to either him or Bobbie, is the child that Bobbie gave up for adoption back when she was a prostitute. On the rebound, at the same time as Bobbie was obtaining a quickie divorce from Tony, she became involved with her brother's archenemy, Stefan Cassadine. He offered her a very lucrative, very practical marriage, and having tried it the other way, she accepted his proposal - a decision she may come to regret. The ink had barely dried on their marriage license before he accidentally shot Katherine Bell - and begun exchanging meaningful looks with her. Finally realizing the depths of her husband's deception, Bobbie teamed up with her brother Luke to destroy Stefan Cassidine. Stefan, however, discovered Bobbie's decepetion and she became one of his enemeies. They had a quick divorce and Bobbie became a "Spencer" again in both name and spirit. Bobbie lived with Luke temporarly, but has moved back into the Brownstone.
