GENERAL HOSPITAL: Willow is Revealed to Be Gaslighting Sasha with Daisy’s Disappearances
As many had predicted, Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) has gone off the deep end, after it was revealed at the end of the Tuesday, July 8th episode of General Hospital, that she is behind baby Daisy’s disappearances. Willow is now ramping up her plan to make it appear Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) is a bad mother, and to get revenge on both her and Michael (Rory Gibson) for the fact that she lost custody of her children, Wiley and Amelia, to Michael.
At the Quartermaine’s, Sasha panics when Daisy is missing from her bassinet and alerts Michael. Chase (Josh Swickard) shows up as she thinks her baby has been kidnapped and explains how several times, Daisy has been removed from her nursery. Suddenly, while everyone is in the foyer, Olivia (Lisa LoCicero) hears a baby cry and goes back into the living room and sees that Daisy is actually in the bassinet.
Olivia then suggests to Sasha that maybe she is having postpartum depression or not getting enough sleep, Sasha tells her that is not what’s happening she would never be too tired to take care of her newborn baby. Later, Chase tells Michael, Sasha says may be imagining things, and the danger to Daisy may be coming from her own mother.

At the end of the episode, Willow is late to see her mother, Nina (Cynthia Watros) at the Metro Court pool. When she shows up, Nina questions her on what to her so long. Willow says she was in discussion on the phone with Drew and lost track of time. However, Willow flashes back to a moment when she enters Daisy’s nursery.
Next, Willow tells Daisy, they are going to go on a little walk. Then, she shockingly says to the little bundle of joy, “Your mommy betrayed me, and your daddy won’t let me see my children, so I’ll show them how it feels to have your child taken from you.”
In an interview with Soap Opera Digest, Katelyn MacMullen said of Willow’s shocking machinations, that this is only beginning of Willow’s mental flip, especially given her past where she has lost a child, plus let’s not forget, she was sold to the ‘Dawn of Day” cult to Harmony Miller, and Shiloh was the father of her child.

MacMullen responded, “I think everything she’s been through and everything that she experienced growing up and also when she moved to Port Charles absolutely plays a role in why she’s doing what she’s doing, and why she feels she has to do what she’s doing in order to get what she needs, essentially. I do think that her trauma is absolutely going to influence the way that she goes about doing things. It’ll be interesting to see how they may or may not even address that because I think that’s just a really interesting human thing to explore. But I definitely see her trauma coming to the surface because I think, like anybody, your trauma kind of influences the way that you handle extreme stress and stressful situations and grief and all of that.”
So, what did you think of the reveal? Did you suspect it was Willow all along taking Daisy and then putting her back in place in her efforts to seek revenge on Michael and Sasha? What do you think Willow might do next? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section below.
I read all the theories regarding Willow being the baby napper, but I constantly told myself that the Q mansion would have better security. Plus, with all those people living there, I couldn’t imagine how Willow could have gotten in without being seen; let alone still had a key to the place. A lot of holes and suspended belief to make this storyline work. However, Willow’s unraveling is one heck of a story. I just hope Sasha doesn’t get pegged as “nuts” and that this doesn’t go on too long.
Agree.. it is ridiculous for them to think that we would think the mansion doesn’t have security cameras. Nowadays everyone has security cameras so this is a stupid plot line and to make the character of Sasha go through this is nuts. I just hope it doesn’t go on too long. Stupid storyline.
The show plays so loose with the security on the Q property that it’s beyond laughable. With Jason back, you’d expect it would’ve got better. I did like Michael’s comment about getting rid of the Nanny Cam after the Drew-Willow nasty.
Metro Court, which also has questionable security, surprisingly caught Sonny’s guards on their cameras outside Natalia’s room last week.
Side note: we haven’t seen Leo in over a year. If they’re gonna show the new exhibit at The Jerome Gallery (side-side note: Ava’s too smart to fall for Cody) it would be awkward to not have Leo there, as he is the photographer’s biggest fan.
Ironic that the mansion with two police detectives and a “coffee importer” living on the premises is the LEAST secure building in town, isn’t it?
I can’t believe Jason hasn’t paid Spinelli to install a state of the art security system on the entire estate by now. And they should probably get some dogs too.
I miss Leo—what a great kid. Now, more than ever we need the brilliant Dr Kevin Collins to come back from the Gates and psycho analyze Willow.
Yes! And considering Sasha has been the queen of misery porn for the last five years is it too much to ask to let her have 5 minutes of uninterrupted bliss? And is it also too much to ask for the Q’s to install a Nanny-cam which has become a household item for families with infants?
I knew it had to be that unhinged wacko. I certainly hope Sasha isn’t blamed and punished for Willow’s insanity.
I like this recent development simply because it is character driven writing. Willow has been through hell in a hand basket due to her then mother sex trafficking her to a cult leader when she was a minor, the death of her baby Jonah and, recently, losing custody of her children. Considering who her biological mother is, who also had a mental breakdown due to a traumatic past that was based on maternal loss, it makes perfect sense for her to follow in her mother’s footsteps. And Kate has the acting prowess to pull this off. I only wish her recent actions didn’t involve tormenting the ever suffering Sasha. Finally, while I predicted that it was Willow gaslighting Sasha, I was wrong when I predicted she would have developed DID and had morphed into Nelle. I do think that would have been a more interesting psychological development with Willow losing time and her darker twin sister fighting the mommy fight her.
It seemed like they might have tried that blackout strategy at first but then changed their minds. Remember a few weeks ago when they segued to Willow at Drew’s house all groggy from a heavy sleep?
True. Or maybe, just maybe, the flashback which Willow experienced ( of her with Daisy) while lunching with Nina was really Nelle pretending to be Willow. One thing about DID is that when the person experiencing trauma feels helpless, the dominant personality ( Nelle) takes over. I don’t the writers would delve into something that intricate though- wish they would.
Sigh. The careless gaps these writers leave open. Sasha, Michael and the others at the boat house heard Daisy on the baby monitor. That is what alerted Sasha to go check on Daisy in the first place.
Oh wow! Great catch. You’re right!
I think it’s predictable but I’m here for it. The entire Willow/Nina mother/ daughter relationship, has been a fail from the time Willow turned completely against Nina, even after finding out she was her mother, even knowing from Sasha how desperately Nina searched for her child for ten years, even knowing Nina lost twenty years of her life to a coma…sge had no compassion even to this day. We never saw Willow and Nina bond. We never saw Willow have a realization of all Nina had been through, or how Carly had hurt her. We never got to experience or feel any bond between them. For Nina, in-story, and for us as viewers, their relationship is so fragile that we assume Willow, if she was or will again be in her right mind, could turn Nina away again and “forbid” her to see her grandkids, too. So I feel no compassion for Willow. She showed none for Nina. Even when she was confident she would win custody (because Drew told her so), did she ever look at her own mom and say, “I understand now. I understand what it must have felt like to learn I was taken from you at birth. Both your children were taken from you. And instead of understanding that when I found out you were my mom and I was that child, I hurt you. I rejected you. I chose Carly over you.” That never happened, so the person I truly feel for is Nina and her unconditional love for a daughter who doesn’t deserve it.
Excellent points and solid reminders of what Nina went through, and how her traumatic experiences were never acknowledged by Willow (or anyone else for that matter).
My guess is that Nina is going to have to put Willow under a conservatorship, much like Britney Spears was.
Oops, she did it again?
Psych Willow still playing the victim when she put this all into motion? Predictable. lol She deserved to lose custody of her kids. Her psychotic break is long overdue, but the storyline is just too little too late. It’s a stupid storyline only because it’s completely unoriginal to continue torturing Sasha. Give Willow a Shadybrook storyline.
I’m pleasantly surprised with the Michael recast, and I’m loving seeing Michael and Sasha parent Daisy together. Katelyn is pulling it off acting wise, but it’s not as compelling as it could be. It’s also really dumb to have Chase dismissing Sasha’s concerns as post partum depression when he knows her better than that and is better friends with her than he is with Willow.
His detective instincts should’ve kicked in to realize there’s only one person with the motive and means to be messing with Daisy like that. Why are they still writing him as believing the best in Willow? It’s ridiculous at this point, especially after what she did to him.
OH WOW/THIS IS A SOAP OPERA PEOPLE NOT A REALITY SHOW. SECURITY CAMERAS AND WHATEVER DOES NOT EXIST IN SOAP OPERA LAND. PLEASE VIEWER ENJOY WHATS LEFT OF THE 60’S AND THE 70’S SOAPS…THEY WERE NEVER MEANT TO THINK THINGS OVER AND MAKE COMMENTS ABOUT REAL PEOPLE…THEY WERE MEANT FOR WOMEN DAYTIMERS TO ENJOY AND IMAGINE……PLEASE ENJOY
Please refrain from using all caps as you admonish us for voicing frustrations that characters, whom we know to be intelligent, for not employing simple problem solving skills. We know it’s a soap that doesn’t adhere to the dictations of reality but we should get to vent our frustrations about redundant fictional stupidity without Captain Obvious coming in here to wag a finger at us while telling us,” It’s just a soap.” Using all caps sounds like screaming thereby piercing the core of my audio processing system. Thank you for your cooperation
I did and I can’t wait to see when she is found out. I want to see Sasha and Daisey stay.
I think Michael, Sasha & Jason were way too quick to have Sasha & Daisy leave town. They were all like who could have done this??? If they’d given it a moment’s thought . . . maybe they would think Willow. Nevertheless-they could have put a baby doll in Daisy’s bed & got some cameras & had Sasha & Daisy hide out at Uncle Mac’s (Port Charles Police Chief’s) house & ultimately would catch Willow.
I just want Willow to find out about Drew and Nina, maybe she’ll come to her senses
People in the ghetto have cameras, and the richest people in town the Q’s don’t? Not even to see whose coming on the premises?
Willow is very mixed up. A lot is Drew’s fault.

‘General Hospital’ Favorite Kirsten Storms Gives Update on Apartment Break-in That Caused “Unnecessary Custody Case”
Kirsten Storms (Maxie, GH) is sharing more details on the December 2025 apartment break-in and the difficulties she has had with the Tennessee police, plus how the original incident, according to the actress, played into her ex-husband, Brandon Barash (ex-Johnny, GH and ex-Stefan/Jake, Days) filing a restraining order against her and the custody case involving their daughter, Harper.
The popular actress had played GH’s Maxie Jones on and off since 2005, after coming to the ABC soap opera following her run as Belle Black on Days of our Lives. As GH fans know, Storms last appearance on General Hospital was back in March of this year. In recent episodes, the character of Maxie was written-out along with her entire family and Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) and relocated to Australia.
Now, Kirsten explained via Instagram and with shared photo of the December police report, which indicated Storms had placed a call to the Franklin Police Department to report a break-in at her Tennessee apartment. The report states that Storms was away from her apartment for about a week in August of 2025, and when she returned home, she found damage to the deadbolt on her door, as well as other missing items.

KIRSTEN STORMS SPEAKS OUT ABOUT CUSTODY CASE OVER HER DAUGHTER
Then, Storms fired back at naysayers in the ongoing comments on her break-in situation, stating: “Please do not tell me (or ask me) not to post these things. I’m hoping this is the last item I post (of the documents I have on the break-in at my old apartment in Tennessee). I’m only doing this because that lead to an **unnecessary custody case** being filed against me.”
It was back in April that TMZ learned, through obtaining of court documents, that Barash cited Storms for having mental health issues so he filed a restraining order against her. Kirsten expressed in her latest post, that she was asked to meet with a mediator in the custody case for her daughter, not a judge, and that her mental health issues were being used against her instead of people focusing on the break-in.
Storms added, “However, the break-in … followed by a ‘custody case/now mediation request’ where the break-in was the main reason for the initial custody filing, was unwarranted.”
PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH CHECK
Kirsten also shared on her health status,”I have always been proactive about my medical care (all aspects), as well as Harper’s (<—— the MOST important person to me). I’ve also been attempting to get checkups with a neurosurgeon/neurologist for my brain aneurysm and brain cysts. And tbh, I have a psychologist that I’ve seen for years, who I’m kinda attached too. She’s f’ing incredible and understands the kind of therapy sessions I need. Addressing what should NOT be the focus (mental illness), is frustrating for me”
You can check out Kirsten’s latest post on the custody matter, and her ongoing battle over the apartment break-in while in Tennessee below.
Now let us know, glad to hear from Kirsten and hear more of her side of the custody story and her ongoing issues with this apartment break-in? Let us know via the comment section below, and if you miss seeing her on-screen on General Hospital and hope one day she will come back.

The Stone Cold and the Jackal brand will now expand into movies, in news today on Monday, September 14. Fans of General Hospital’s Steve Burton (Jason Morgan) and Bradford Anderson (Spinelli) will be excited to learn that the two will be starring in and are co-writing and producing a holiday flick.
Working alongside producers, Zero Gravity Management, the production team behind the hit and critically-acclaimed Netflix series Ozark, though the title and details are bering kept under wraps, fans can look forward to an upcoming movie that is said to be a “quick-witted comedy, holiday romance, and a playful whodunit, that follows two unlikely partners as they stumble into a mystery in a charming small town at Christmas.”
Burton, Anderson, and their creative partner, Stacy Asencio-Sutphen are working on the script. According to the official Stone Cold and the Jackal Instagram account, “While financing and distribution continue to be ironed out, there’s a casting call out for the two female leads who’ll star opposite the dynamic duo.

STEVE BURTON AND BRADFORD ANDERSON’S JOURNEY TO THE SCREEN
In a statement, Bradford Anderson, expressed: “We have the best fans in the world, and the constant question we ask ourselves is, ‘What more can we do to entertain them?’ When we came up with this idea for a series of holiday films, we knew we had something special.”
Steve and Bradford initially developed their on-screen. and later on-stage chemistry on General Hospital when Spinelli, the computer nerd would help Jason solve crimes or infiltrate the bad guys software system on GH. From there, the two begun touring in comedy and music venues around the country and since 2018 have co-hosted That’s Awesome with Steve and Bradford on their You Tube Channel, and have continued to grow their brand.
While Steve Burton started on General Hospital as Jason Quartermaine in 1991, it wasn’t until 2006, when we first met Damian Spinelli, that the two eventually linked up as the most unlikely pairing of “crime” fighters, even though Jason worked for Sonny and the mob.
In story in 2026, Jason and Spinelli remain close friends, although recently Spinelli was written off the canvas when he received a job offer in Australia that he could not pass up. So far now, Spinelli is living down under with Maxie and the children, while Jason remains in Port Charles.

This week on all-new episode of General Hospital, WSB agent Baines (Alimi Ballard) is on the hunt for the person responsible for the disappearance of Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna). GH viewers know that a deceased Jack was buried six feet under by Ava (Maura West) and Drew (Cameron Mathison) after finding him dead and floating in the Metro Court pool.
Now, in the latest GH promo and video spoilers for the week of August 24-28, suspicion continues to fall on Ava, Drew, Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) and Nina (Cynthia Watros), who Drew set up to take the fall.

Ava is seen warning Drew, “A man like Brennan doesn’t just disappear.” Then we hear the voiceover of Nina pondering, “How exactly are we going to deal with that?” Will Drew also throw Ava under the bus to keep himself anywhere near being a major suspect in the crime?
SUSPECTS ARE MOUNTING
Then, Baines, who has stepped in as the acting WSB Port Charles bureau chief, is seen saying, “I have some questions for you.” Quick shots of Drew, Nina, Willow, Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Ava flash through the promo.
At the conclusion of the promo entitled “Not Good At All,” referencing Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) statement to her daughter Molly (Kristen Vaganos) earlier in the video, Baines is at the Metro Court Gardens where he clearly is at someone’s table and informs them, “You’re under arrest.”
