General Hospital’s Kirsten Storms: ‘I Was Shocked… They Found an Aneurysm’
On October 7, Kirsten Storms shared a worrisome health update but assured us that she was fine. “In January 2025, I had a new scan done of my brain,” began the General Hospital leading lady. “After my surgery in 2021, my amazing neurosurgeon (who humors the jokes I make during appointments — which is OK because he’s very smart) has been monitoring the cyst that he left on my brain when he removed one that was causing me some problems. The January scan happened because I had symptoms that the doctors thought could’ve been brain-related.
“OK, when I say that I was shocked when the doctors told me they found an aneurysm on the right side of my brain… welp, I basically launched into a standup comedy routine,” she continued. “I had a procedure done that weekend, where the doctor thread[ed] a camera from my leg up to my brain. (It’s a routine procedure, but the path inside your body that they lead the camera through is
The Rumor Is Absolute BS
Shortly after Storms was discharged, she read a disturbing blog post “that said I was in the hospital that weekend because I tried to ‘unalive’ myself. I couldn’t understand why a person would make up something that terrible when they had no idea why I was really there.”
Frankly, we can’t either. Suffice it to say, “There are a few really bad apples out there,” Storms noted, using language that’s admirably tamer than we’d have been able to muster up in her shoes. Anyway, back to the actual story of what happened…
‘I Needed to Change Some Things in My Life’
Storms said that there was a “slightly complex situation with the aneurysm — nothing bad, just not typical” — and that was why it wasn’t coiled that weekend. She went back to work playing Maxie, started her hiatus (at which point her character slipped into a coma) and left California. “Emotional support, when going through times in life that cause worry, is crucial,” she said. And luckily, she’s had BFF Emme Rylan (ex-Lulu) in her corner every step of the way. “Aneurysms can be caused by stress. Brain cysts? I believe that is possible, too… and since the January scan showed a new but
“For my own personal reasons, no longer living in Los Angeles was very important to me. The biggest reason for the move [to Tennessee] was Harper,” Storms’ daughter with former husband Brandon Barash (ex-Johnny,
Kim Zolciak Subpoenaed In $100 Million Divorce by Man’s Estranged Wife Demanding Answers Over Gifts (Exclusive)
Kim Zolciak was subpoenaed as part of a man’s ongoing divorce with his estranged wife, who demanded the former Real Housewives of Atlanta star answer questions about gifts he bought her,
On September 30, court documents were filed that showed Zolciak was served with a subpoena demanding she appear for a deposition as part of a man named
Mowitz filed for divorce from his wife, Jillian Green, in March. The paperwork said Zolciak was served at the parking lot of a high school in Georgia.
A lawyer for Zolciak, 47, responded to a request that she appear for a deposition on October 15 and bring certain documents and communications.
Zolciak opposed the request that she be forced to appear. She called the subpoena “unreasonable, oppressive and intended to annoy and embarrass her.”
The subpoena asked that Zolciak turn over all communications with Mowitz, any communications between Zolciak and another third party regarding “payment for services or communications concerning [Mowitz],” Green, their children or the divorce. She also asked for any documents regarding gifts from Mowitz, or any business he owns has given her.
Green also requested “any and all documents regarding or pertaining to your financial relationship with Kyle Mowitz, including but not limited to gifts given or received from Kyle, expenses paid on your behalf by Mr. Mowitz or any business in which he is connected, monies loaned to you and monies paid to you by Mr. Mowitz or any businesses with which he is connected.”
The subpoena also demanded Zolciak turn over documents regarding travel with Mowitz, including the travel arrangements, itinerary, where they stayed and the payment of all expenses associated with said travel.
Green also wanted Zolciak to turn over communications with third parties, and any and all documents relating to any and all contact between Zolciak’s estranged husband, Kroy Biermann, and Mowitz.
Mowitz’s lawyer, Marvin Solomiany, tells Us, “We are not going to litigate the facts surrounding our client’s divorce case outside of the applicable legal proceedings. We encourage you to review the pleadings we have filed on our client’s behalf, which accurately represent our client’s position relating to this matter. As to Ms. Kim Zolciak, Ms. Mowitz’s decision to involve her in the divorce case is highly unnecessary as any relationship our client may have with her only began after the parties’ separation.”
A judge has yet to rule.
In his initial petition, Mowitz listed the date of marriage as June 24, 2017, and said they were currently separated. Mowitz said he shares two minor children with his estranged wife.
The paperwork showed the exes lived in separate homes in Georgia. He asked the court to award him joint legal and physical custody of their kids.
Mowitz also claimed there was no hope for a reconciliation with his ex. He said his wife did not need support and argued she was an “able-bodied adult capable of gainful employment.”
A month later, Green responded to Mowitz’s petition. She asked the court to award her primary custody but was on board with joint legal custody. Her counterclaim requested Mowitz pay her child and spousal support.
In her filing, Green claimed she trusted her ex to handle their “substantial wealth.”
She claimed her estranged husband created a family trust in 2021. “[Mowitz] was engaged in an extra-marital affair and contemplating divorce at the time he created and funded the Trust” the counterclaim alleged.
She claimed Mowitz transferred the majority of their assets into the trust before the divorce. She claimed he had power over the trust and he left her in the dark.
In another document, Green claimed the trust had over $100 million invested in it. She claimed her ex’s income was a “mystery.”
In another filing, Mowitz accused his estranged wife of being the one who stepped out on the marriage. He alleged she had one extramarital affair.
Both denied all allegations of wrongdoing in the case.
As Us previously reported, Zolciak and Biermann, 40, split in 2023 and are still in the middle of finalizing their bitter divorce. They are both demanding sole custody of their minor children.
