General Hospital character Maxie Jones is pretty resilient. Her portrayer, Kirsten Storms, is no different. Maxie has been put through the wringer on the soap.
When she was a young girl, she survived a heart transplant. She has an absent father, and her mother wasn’t around much as she grew up. Maxie’s sister and husband were both murdered. She delivered one baby on the side of the road, and another in the woods. Most recently, her fiancé and the father of her youngest daughter turned out to be a psychotic killer.
Storms has also been through some turmoil and is standing strong.

Storms knew she wanted to be an actor. More than that, she knew she wanted to be in soaps.

Divorce and co-parenting are never easy, even for celebrities, but some couples are able to make it work. Kirsten Storms, who plays Maxie Jones on General Hospital, was once married to her former co-star Brandon Barash.
Barash played Johnny Zacchara on the soap. His character was a brooding and volatile mobster with a heart of gold. Barash left Gh in 2016 when Zacchara was sentenced to prison.

Maxie is the daughter of super-couple Frisco Jones and Felicia Cummings. She has gotten into a lot of trouble through the years but has become a responsible mom and businesswoman with a problematic love life. Storms and Barash met on the set of Gh, and they tied the knot in 2013.

Kirsten Storms plays Maxie Jones on General Hospital. Maxie is the daughter of the legacy super couple Frisco and Felicia. Her character has been through it all.
Maxie grew up with an absent father and a sometimes-absent mother. But she was lucky to have her stepdad Mac Scorpio raise her and her sister Georgie. Speaking of her sis, she was murdered by the “Text Message Killer” as a teen.
Maxie had a heart transplant as a little girl, she was kidnapped, her husband was shot to death, and she was terrorized by a madman she almost married. A typical soap life.
Although not as bad as Maxie, Storms has had her fair share of drama as well. She shared details of her life with Maurice Benard on his State of Mind podcast.
Kirsten Storms always wanted to be on a soap opera
