Actress Kirsten Storms is currently known for her performance of Maxie Jones on General Hospital. The actress recently became the subject of a rumor claiming she had suffered from a drug overdose. As fans shared their concern on social media, there is some debate over the story.
Kirsten Storms First Joined General Hospital Back In 2005
Storms got her start as a child actress, notably appearing as the title character in the Disney Channel’s Zenon series. Around this time, however, she was already getting her start in soap operas.
From 1999 to 2004, Storms played Belle Black on Days of Our Lives. Starting in 2005, she would also make a name for herself as Maxie Jones on General Hospital. She also played the character on the spin-off, General Hospital: Night Shift.
Soap operas would also serve as a prominent part of her personal life. From 2013 to 2016, she was married to Brandon Barash, who also appeared on General Hospital and Days of Our Lives. Together, they had a daughter in 2024.
Recently, the actress became the subject of a rumor that appeared across various social media platforms, such as YouTube, that claimed she had suffered a drug overdose. It had been claimed that the story came out from sources close to her.
According to one report, the actress had cut off ties to those around her on the night of the incident. It was then claimed that a friend found her motionless on the floor near an empty medication bottle.
The Story Might Have Been Tied To The Actress’ Recent Weight Loss
Reports then claimed emergency services rushed Storms to a hospital where doctors tried to stablize her. It was then claimed that Storms had been kept under supervision at the hospital.
At this time, however, there is no confirmation that this story is true and it is unclear where it originated. Some fans speculate that the story was sparked by reports of the actress’ recent weight loss.
As previously reported, Storms’ character Maxie had been flaunting a new wardrobe to highlight her figure. Over the past few months, however, the actress had been sharing her exercise routine with fans, such as with videos on Instagram, showing how she got in shape.
When the story initially came out, fans had shown concern over the story. Taking to YouTube, many fans wrote that they hoped she was alright in the comments:
- “I pray that Kristin is ok and that she has a complete recovery and gets the help she needs. Also after whatever time she needs that she comes back to GH she is such an important part of the show.”
- “I hope this is not true, too, but in the meantime, I pray for her full recovery, mentally and physically. I’m so sorry she was hurting so bad.”
- “I’m praying for you kris, please don’t give up your daughter and family and friends love you so much. God bless you always.”
