Kristina Corinthos recast! The Iconic Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) is known for his controversial lifestyle. From mobster to devoted father, his work life Sonny runs the type of business that makes it hard to keep a low profile. Despite the shady business, money, and power, Sonny’s also known for being a devoted family man. His children looked up to him for the love and protection he provides. However, recent choices lead to a strained relationship with his son Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell).
Moreover, although Michael sees Sonny in a different light, his sister Kristina Corinthos (Lexi Ainsworth) is still the big brown eyed daddy’s girl she’s always been. Kristina may be the same girl she always was, but GH spoilers reveal that someone new portray Sonny’s daughter. Inevitably, Lexi and Maurice’s onscreen dynamic is impeccable. It’s obvious to most that they have the most lovable and believable father-daughter bond. Sadly, General Hospital news announced a recent casting change.
Lexi Ainsworth Confirms GH Exit
According to recent General Hospital comings and goings, the role of Kristina Corinthos was recast. GH news reports confirm Lexi joined GH in 2009. Over the years the role was recast with Lindsey Morgan, but soon after Morgan exited the daytime drama. Ainsworth returned as the face of Kristina and has remained recurring since. Currently, her last air date was on April 27th.
General Hospital news and spoilers confirm Emmy winner Kate Mansi (ex-Abigail Days) was cast as the new Kristina Corinthos Davis. Sources reveal Mansi has begun filming her scenes as she takes over for Ainsworth. Expect to see her onscreen GH debut around May 22nd.
I must admit, Lexi Ainsworth is one of my favorites. Her talent is real and genuine. In my opinion, Lexi is an underutilized talent. With that, we are excited for Lexi as she expands her talents and develops new avenues in her career. Although we are sad to see her leave after 10 years, we wish Lexi the best of luck and blessings.
Please make sure to check out Lexi Ainsworth on NCIS, May 22nd!
