Kirsten Storms joined the cast of General Hospital in 2005 after taking over the role after Robyn Richards portrayed Maxie Jones for 11 years. Kirsten was temporarily recast in 2012, but has returned and remains a prominent leading lady on the 58 year old Daytime Drama.
Recently, General Hospital Blog confirmed reports that Storms had undergone brain surgery, and was accompanied by her on screen and real life bestie, Emme Rylan (Lulu Spencer Falconeri), at the time she announced the shocking news. Fans showed their love and support through social media comments, extending love, prayers, and good vibes to Kirsten.
General Hospital news and spoilers suggest Kirsten will soon exit the GH canvas as she needed time off for surgery and recovery. The scenes we see currently were filmed before Kirsten’s brain surgery.
General Hospital rumors suggest the role will not be temporarily recast, but will be written into the script. Kirsten’s character, Maxie Jones will most likely skip town while she is trying to deal with the mess left behind by Peter August (Wes Ramsey), and the struggle to keep baby Louise safe.
General Hospital news reports have not confirmed Kirsten’s exit or the duration of which she will be absent from the show. We will keep GH fans up to date on the latest news surrounding Kirsten’s future GH plans.
