General Hospital star Kirsten Storms horrified her fans this week with a photo posted on special media. In the photo, she stood facing the camera in a black and white photo. She had what looked like a horrible black eye as she looked seriously at the camera. She said it happened when a coffee canister exploded in her face.

Here is what happened and why the photo is not as it seems.

Kirsten Storms Tells Story Of Coffee Canister Incident.

General Hospital’s Kirsten Storms (Maxie Jones) took to Instagram to show fans a horrific photo that she took following an accident with a coffee canister. She had what appeared to be a terrible black eye in the photo. However, she wrote it was a funny “but not funny” story, making it seem not as bad as it looked.

Kirsten said she has opened several canisters of coffee tins over her life. However, for the first time, one exploded out of the container into her face. “I can say with certainty that I prefer my coffee brewed in hot water (or over ice),” she wrote. “Straight from the container doesn’t taste that good.” She then finished by saying there was a warning label on the lid.

That is when it struck home that she didn’t have a black eye. The black marks around her eye were coffee grounds. It was a traumatic moment, surely, but it wasn’t as bad as the photo made it look.

Her fans chimed in as well in the comments:

  • “Been there with flour! You win for originality!”
  • “Damn, that coffee is strong. Maybe too strong.”
  • “I thought you were made up for a fight scene on GH! Naughty coffee!”
  • “Girl thought you got in a fight. didnt reliase you got in fight with a coffee can.”

She was speaking to Maurice Benard on his podcast State of Mind two years ago and admitted that she received the same diagnosis he did. Both suffered from bipolar disorder, and both needed to receive a diagnosis to understand what was happening and fix it.

“I experience anxiety frequently; I have bipolar 1,” Kirsten said at the time. “I easily get frantic about things; I felt flustered, fear and stressed.” However, after her diagnosis and medication, she said, “My life literally just changed. I felt like a normal person.”
