Brandon Barash Gets Restraining Order Against Ex-Wife Kirsten Storms
A judge granted Brandon Barash a restraining order against his ex-wife, General Hospital actress Kirsten Storms. The court agreed Storms is experiencing a mental health crisis that raises concerns about their son's safety.
Brandon Barash, who used to act on General Hospital alongside his ex-wife Kirsten Storms, won a court order to stay away from him. The judge sided with Barash's claim that Storms is showing troubling behavior that could put their young son at risk.
Barash filed court papers describing what he calls concerning actions by Storms. The court documents led a judge to officially declare that the soap opera star is going through a mental health crisis.
Storms plays Maxie Jones on the long-running ABC soap opera General Hospital. She recently returned to the show in February after taking a six-month break from filming. The 41-year-old actress and Barash were married and worked together on the same show before their divorce.
The restraining order means Storms must keep a legal distance from Barash. The court's decision puts their co-parenting arrangement under new rules designed to protect their child's wellbeing during this difficult time.
This case shows how family courts handle child safety when a parent faces mental health struggles. It affects the popular soap opera star's career and highlights the serious nature of custody disputes involving mental health concerns.
Court hearings will determine how long the restraining order stays in place and what custody arrangements will protect the child.
