‘General Hospital’ star Kirsten Storms hit with emergency restraining order filed by ex-husband Brandon Barash
“General Hospital” star Kirsten Storms’ ex, Brandon Barash, filed an emergency restraining order against the 42-year-old actress.
A judge has granted Barash’s request — which was initially filed in December 2025 — due to Storms’ “mental health crisis,” according to court documents obtained by People. Months prior to the filing, Barash claimed Storms told him she had been “experiencing delusions and hallucinations.”
Barash, who shares one 12-year-old daughter with Storms, claimed Storms once told him that she “didn’t think she should have the child for her parenting time.”
According to the documents, Barash’s current wife, Isabella, helped Storms get hospitalized and placed on a psychiatric hold. Storms allegedly never acknowledged the experience after being released.
Additionally, according to the documents, Barash claimed that one of Storms’ friends told him she had “repeated episodes of melting down, being triggered, hearing things/voices that weren’t there.” That same friend allegedly told him she believes the actress is abusing Adderall and other substances.
Storms had allegedly been couch-surfing between September 2024 and June 2025 because people were “following her and the child to her room,” Barash claimed.
After moving to an apartment in Tennessee, Storms allegedly claimed to Barash that people were breaking into her apartment and placing things in her car in an effort to “mess with her.”
Earlier this month, Storms shared security camera footage on social media, claiming that an individual had broken into her apartment.
“The video starts when my ring camera reconnected to the Wi-Fi. Still hoping the Legacy Cool Spring building is able to cooperate with the Franklin Police Department, so that I can have peace of mind about who was entering my apartment while I was out of town,” she captioned the post. “This situation has been not only concerning for me to deal with on a personal level, but I’m continuing to have to sort out ongoing problems with attempted access to my cell phone and iCloud accounts.”
On Friday, Storms claimed she had been evicted from her apartment building.
“After I reported the break-in to the police and continued to attempt to speak with someone from the leasing office, regarding said break-in, without a response….the building left an eviction notice on my apt door,” she wrote on Instagram.
Representatives for Storms and Barash did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
In October 2025, Storm revealed she would be undergoing surgery to treat a brain aneurysm.
Storms, who previously underwent brain surgery in 2021 to remove a noncancerous cyst that was causing symptoms, told her Instagram followers at the time that her neurosurgeon had been monitoring another cyst that wasn’t removed during the first operation and discovered an aneurysm on the right side of her brain during a follow-up scan earlier that year.

The actress admitted she was “majorly freaked out” when the aneurysm was discovered, sharing that she felt “my brain seems to be sorta lowkey rebelling against me.”
Earlier that same year, Storms — who has played Maxie in “General Hospital” since 2005 — announced that she was taking a hiatus from the long-running ABC soap opera to move from Los Angeles to Nashville, Tennessee, with her daughter.
Storms explained in her Instagram post that her health struggles contributed to her decision to leave L.A.

“Aneurysms (obviously) can be caused by stress,” she wrote. “Brain cysts? I believe that is possible too… and since the January scan showed a new, but very small, squatter (aka cyst) on my brain stem — it was clear I needed to change some things in my life asap.”
She continued, “For my own personal reasons, no longer living in Los Angeles was very important to me. The biggest reason for the move was Harper, but a lot of it was for my physical and mental health. And my overall happiness.”
In the caption of her post, Storms wrote that she also wanted to set the record straight after false online rumors circulated about why she had been hospitalized.
“A few days after I was discharged from the hospital, someone created a blog post that said I was in the hospital that weekend because I tried to ‘unalive’ myself,” she wrote.
“I couldn’t understand why a person would make up something that terrible, when they had no idea why I was really there,” Storms continued. “There are a few really bad apples out there. We all know that…but there are people in my life who I am truly thankful to know.”

Pistons fans chant ‘Angel Reese’ at Wendell Carter Jr. during Game 7 blowout win over Orlando Magic
There is home-court advantage, and then there is the Angel Reese treatment.
In a winner-take-all Game 7 that felt like a messy episode of “Love & Basketball”, Detroit Pistons fans turned Little Caesars Arena into a house of psychological warfare.
ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!
The target was Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr.
The weapon was his own girlfriend.
As the Magic big man stepped to the stripe during Detroit’s 116-94 blowout win, a deafening chant of “AN-GEL RE-ESE” rained from the rafters.
The backstory is all soap opera.
Before dating Carter Jr., Reese was linked to Pistons star Jalen Duren.
The blood boiled over during this series when Angel Reese posted Instagram highlights of Carter Jr. dunking on Duren, captioned: “PLAY THE SONGGGGG.”
PACERS’ GAME 1 HERO’S GIRLFRIEND TAKES SHOT AT KNICKS AFTER PLAYOFF COLLAPSE
Pistons fans did not forget. And the tactic worked.
While Duren played like a man possessed with a 15-point and 15-rebound double-double, Carter Jr. looked rattled.
The Motor City faithful reminded him at every dead ball exactly who was watching.
ANGEL REESE, CAITLIN CLARK HAVE HEATED EXCHANGE AFTER HARD FOUL DURING SKY-FEVER GAME
After weeks of Reese’s social media “shades,” Duren got the last laugh by sending Carter Jr. home for the summer.
Reese has yet to respond to the chants. In Detroit, the message was clear: In the playoffs, dating history is fair game.
Detroit moves on. And Carter Jr. has a long flight back to Orlando with plenty to explain.

Sheets was pronounced dead at the scene, and his death is still under active investigation.
“Storage Wars” star Laura Dotson said Sheets was “terrified for his life” in the years before his death due to alleged cyberbullying.
“His family told us that this has been happening for three years,” Dotson, who appears on the show with her husband, Dan Dotson, told Us Weekly. “[It happens to] even strong men that you think aren’t gonna get their feelings hurt. Cyberbullying is a real thing. This made him feel less than, and it really obviously bothered him.
“He was terrified for his life [and] for the people around him. He didn’t know why he was being targeted.”
Lake Havasu City Police Department public information officer Sergeant Kyle Ridgway confirmed that the accusations were being investigated.

“We are aware of these cyberbullying accusations, and that is a part of the active investigation,” Ridgway told Fox News Digital.
Shortly after Sheets’ death, “Storage Wars” co-star Rene Nezhoda uploaded a video to Instagram, claiming his friend was being cyberbullied online.
“Darrell has been posting a lot about the guy that’s been cyberbullying him and tormenting him, and I really hope [law enforcement] look into that guy, and it’s just not a pass,” Nezhoda said in the video.
Sheets became famous as a main buyer on “Storage Wars,” a reality show that follows bidders competing to buy abandoned storage units. He appeared in more than 160 episodes, starting in 2010.
He earned the nickname “The Gambler” during his time on the show due to his high-risk bids on storage units.
