Kirsten Storms sparks General Hospital return rumors

Actress Kirsten Storms has sparked speculation regarding a potential return to her role as Maxie Jones on 'General Hospital' following recent social media updates. Storms, who had previously taken a hiatus to relocate to Tennessee for personal and health reasons, shared that she is “Back in Cali. Back to blonde.”

Her character, Maxie, was recently written out of the series with a storyline involving a move to Australia. Storms' decision to return to Los Angeles and adopt her signature blonde hairstyle has led fans to suggest she may be preparing to reprise the role in Port Charles.

Storms previously noted that her move away from Los Angeles was motivated by her daughter and her physical and mental health, specifically following the discovery of a brain aneurysm earlier in 2025. While the hair and location change have fueled rumors, it remains unconfirmed if these changes are related to her professional commitments or personal preference.
