[edit] Character storyline
Mike is the father of Sonny Corinthos, who was born Michael Corinthos Jr., and of the now deceased Courtney Matthews. Mike abandoned Sonny and his mother Adela Corinthos when Sonny was a small child. Sonny resents him for this and blames his father for Adela's later marriage to an abusive police officer, Deke Woods, who also abused Sonny. Mike didn't see Sonny again until he was an adult. Their relationship continues to be strained. It was further strained when Sonny learned that Mike had a daughter, Courtney Matthews, with his former live-in girlfriend Janine Matthews. Janine left Mike after he gambled away all of her money and told Courtney that Mike had died. Mike saw Courtney again when she was an adult. Courtney resented her mother for lying and reconnected with the father she had loved. Mike continues to have a gambling addiction and Sonny has often had to bail him out of trouble. Mike is the manager at Kelly's diner and is occasionally seen at family functions. Mike is the godfather of Michael Corinthos III. At the boy's baptism, it was established that Mike is a Roman Catholic and is of Irish and Greek descent.
