A shocking real-life development is unfolding involving General Hospital star Kirsten Storms—and it’s far more serious than typical celebrity headlines.
According to a new report from TMZ, Storms’ ex-husband Brandon Barash has been granted an emergency restraining order after raising alarming concerns about her mental health and their child’s safety.

Emergency Restraining Order Granted After Urgent Filing
Court documents obtained by TMZ reveal that Barash went to court seeking immediate protection—and the judge approved the request.
The filing wasn’t routine. It was presented as an urgent situation, with Barash claiming Storms is currently experiencing a mental health crisis severe enough to impact her ability to care for their 12-year-old daughter.
As of now, the restraining order includes supervised visitation, with a follow-up court review scheduled this week.
Claims of Delusions, Instability, and Escalating Concerns
Barash outlined a pattern of troubling behavior that has reportedly been building over time.
He claimed that Storms has struggled with housing instability since their divorce, at one point allegedly moving between hotels and friends’ homes for months. He also alleged that she frequently changed locations because she believed people were following her and their child.
One of the most concerning claims detailed in the report is that Storms allegedly told Barash she was “experiencing delusions and hallucinations” and didn’t feel capable of having their daughter during her parenting time.
Barash says that following that admission, his current wife helped Storms get into a hospital, where she was placed on a psychiatric hold.
Ongoing Issues Raise Questions About Stability
The concerns didn’t stop there.
Barash also referenced financial struggles and ongoing instability, including an alleged unpaid loan and the risk of her car being repossessed. He also claimed that a friend of Storms expressed concern about possible substance misuse and described repeated episodes involving paranoia and hearing voices.
In another incident cited in the filing, Storms allegedly contacted Barash claiming people were breaking into her home and tampering with her belongings.
More recently, she reportedly posted a video online stating she had been hacked—adding to the growing list of behaviors raising concern.
Mental Health Evaluation Requested
Barash has asked the court to require Storms to undergo a formal mental health evaluation, though it’s unclear at this time whether that request has been granted.
For now, the situation remains fluid, with legal proceedings ongoing and more details expected to emerge as the case develops.
A Difficult Situation Playing Out Publicly
At this stage, it’s important to note that the claims outlined in the restraining order come from Barash’s court filing, as reported by TMZ. Storms has not publicly responded, and no additional statements have been released on her behalf.
Still, the seriousness of the allegations—and the court’s decision to grant an emergency order—has placed this situation firmly in the spotlight.
