General Hospital Spoilers: Kate Mansi Joins GH as Kristina Recast – Days of Our Lives Alum Replaces Lexi Ainsworth

General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that the role of Kristina Corinthos-Davis has been recast, so Lexi Ainsworth aired for the final time on April 27. SOD reports that Kate Mansi (ex-Abigail Deveraux DiMera, Days of Our Lives) is already filming and will replace Ainsworth as Kristina sometime during the week of May 22.

This news comes as a shock to GH fans, who have been watching Lexi Ainsworth in the part since 2009.

Kristina hasn’t been given much airtime in recent years, but plenty of viewers have always liked Ainsworth’s version of her – especially in heartfelt family scenes.

However, Kate Mansi, who also proved popular in her previous role as Abigail Deveraux DiMera on Days of Our Lives, has taken over as Kristina and is set to make her first appearance in Port Charles soon.

Of course, this means the show is gearing up for a story where Kristina’s important or else they would’ve just written her out.

Kristina may end up front and center in the near future due to her sister’s fertility struggles.

There’s a good chance Kristina will become Molly Lansing-Davis’ (Haley Pullos) surrogate based on the hints that’ve been offered, so it makes sense that they brought on a recast if things didn’t work out for whatever reason with Ainsworth.

Kristina’s role in all the baby drama should be crucial as this storyline moves along, so we should give Mansi a warm welcome and give her a chance to put her own spin on the character.

That said, it’s always tough to say goodbye to familiar faces, so many fans will miss Ainsworth now that she’s being replaced.

Recasts can be difficult to get used to, but Mansi is a talented actress who will hopefully deliver the Kristina vibe we’ve come to expect.

How do you feel about Kate Mansi replacing Lexi Ainsworth as Kristina Corinthos-Davis? Are you looking forward to seeing what’s next for Kristina?

General Hospital spoilers say Kristina has some great material in the works, so stay tuned for updates on the challenges she’ll tackle in the coming months.
