Ava Jerome (Maura West) has gone from a ruthless mobster to a loving mother and a dear friend. While there’s no doubt that she is a loving mother to her daughter Avery, her status as a “dear friend” is what’s in question.
Most definitely, Ava is a good friend to Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali). What’s between them is more than a friendship because Ava sees Trina as another daughter. Avery Corinthos is the light of Ava’s life, but losing Kiki (Hayley Erin) left a hole in her heart. Thankfully, Trina and Ava clicked. By no means does Trina take Kiki’s place, but she helps fill that void for Ava.
Port Charles is a small town, but Trina isn’t Ava’s only friend. Ava is a socialite. So she flutters around town making acquaintances, but has few deep connections. Seemingly, her strongest adult friendship is with Nina Reeves. Ava and Nina‘s friendship is quite strange given their history. According to GH, recaps, Nina kidnapped Sonny and Ava’s daughter Avery at birth. She went on to become Nina’s bestie and married Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Go figure.
As it turns out, GH spoilers and rumors tease that Nina and Ava aren’t really friends at all. Could it be that Ava’s playing Nina and has been this entire time? I mean, what mother can forgive her child’s kidnapper and then become the best of friends? Maybe only if that mother was psycho too!
