General Hospital fans wonder where Kirsten Storms’ Maxie Jones is

Kirsten Storms’ character Maxie Jones didn’t appear at the 2025 Nurses Ball in General Hospital, prompting fans to question her absence. On-screen, the show explained that Maxie stayed home to care for her sick daughter, Bailey Lou. Recent episodes confirmed this in the dialogue.

Fans on Facebook echoed this explanation. One viewer noted that Maxie is “at home with Bailey Lumi, who is sick,” while another added, “They said yesterday the kids are sick so Maxie is home with them!” Others commented, “She’s home with sick kiddos otherwise she would’ve been there,” and “Kids are sick and she’s taking care of them. They mentioned it.”

However, some fans speculated about reasons beyond the script. One asked, “In real life, I wonder why Kirsten Storms isn’t on canvas for the Nurses Ball?” Another responded that “Kirsten is fine, just part of the script.” A separate user commented, “Kirsten is like sick for real,” though no official source has confirmed this.

In a recent TV Insider interview celebrating her 20th anniversary on the show, Storms reflected on her time as Maxie, describing it as a “crazy ride.” She shared that her favorite storyline involved Maxie and Spinelli, saying she loved “the idea of this fashionista and this extremely intelligent, kind of nerdy young guy falling in love.”

Storms also thanked the fans, saying, “I thank them for still enjoying me all this time later… Their support and kindness truly make a difference.” She named executive producer Frank Valentini as a key reason she has stayed on the show for the past 13 years.

No official source has confirmed that Kirsten Storms plans to leave General Hospital. No one has reported that she’s facing any real-life health issues beyond the current storyline.
