[edit] Background
Robert, an Australian, has an heroic past. He was involved in many adventures with his good friend Luke Spencer and his wife Holly . He has been an international spy for the WSB spy agency, and was police commissioner of Port Charles from 1983 through 1985/then again from 1988 through 1992 when he supposedly perished in an explosion in South America. When he resigned as police commissioner in 1985 he moved to Australia with his wife Holly to start anew. He had a bad relationship with his brother Mac Scorpio when he first came to town because he blamed Mac for the death of their parents. Eventually the brothers patched up their relationship. Robert was presumed dead along with his wife, Anna Devane, in 1992. Their teenage daughter Robin Scorpio was left behind to be raised by Robert's brother Mac Scorpio. Anna Devane reappeared in 2001, but told her family that Robert was dead. However, Robert resurfaced in 2006, when Port Charles was stricken with a deadly strain of encephalitis. It came out that he was forced by the WSB to be incognito for 15 years as the only way to keep his families alive; he had no choice but to let them think he was dead. His daughter is having a difficult time forgiving him for his absence.
[edit] Robert and Holly
Robert Scorpio and Holly Sutton married under strange circumstances. Holly was pregnant with the presumed dead Luke Spencer's baby and was about to be deported so Robert stepped in and married her. She ended up miscarrying the baby but she and Robert eventually fell in love.
[edit] Robert and Anna
Anna Devane, his first wife, the two were married in Italy while on assignment. The two have one child together. They remarried in 1992, but that marriage was invalid since Robert's wife Holly was still alive.
