Perspective
On May 11, 2023, it was announced Pullos' role on General Hospital had been recast following a car accident. At press time, Pullos stated: "Unfortunately, I was involved in an automobile accident and I'm doing okay, but I am going to need a little time to recover. I will be back as soon as possible!"[22][23] Six days later, citing a police report, TMZ published physical evidence of Pullos' crash; she was arrested in Pasadena, California, for suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI), and was subsequently charged with felony DUI.[24][25][26] Later that day, she entered into a rehab facility in Malibu, California.[27]
In June 2023, Pullos was sued after hitting and seriously injuring another driver on a Pasadena freeway. According to police reports from the incident obtained by TMZ, firefighters rescued Pullos from her car and placed her in an ambulance, where she struck a firefighter who was assessing her injuries. The lawsuit alleged that Pullos was "simultaneously intoxicated with marijuana and drunk on alcohol" when she had collided with the other driver. Officers found edible cannabis products and mini-bottles of tequila in Pullos' vehicle.[28] She was later charged with two felony DUI counts by the Los Angeles County District Attorney.[29][30]
On April 29, 2024, Pullos was sentenced to 90 days in jail.[31][32] She was released from jail on July 29, and sentenced to five years of probation,[33][34] including 200 hours of community service, a nine-month alcohol program, a mental health treatment program, and to pay $8,260 in restitution to the victim and not to drive a motor vehicle for at least a year.[4] Her attorney Mark Daniel Melnick told People that "Haley is very grateful to the court for a minimum sentence and for recognizing her remorse and the strides she has made in her sobriety."[31] General Hospital actress Nancy Lee Grahn defended Pullos after her sentence, writing on social media: "As Haley's TV mom I can tell some truth about her as I've loved her since she was a little girl. She made a HUGE mistake, knows it, owns it & has spent the last yr doing EVERYTHING imaginable to take responsibility 4 it."[31] In October 2025, the lawsuit was settled to $1 million as part of an insurance payout by No Comment, a restaurant in Pasadena, California, where Pullos was working before the accident on April 29, with "no admission of liability".[35][36]
