    Lindsey Morgan (IMDB)
    New girl in town.

    Updated on April 18:

    Lexi Ainsworth (ex-Kristina) took to Twitter in regards to the recast and stated, "Thank you guys for all your support but I won't be reprising the role of Kristina. I loved her but I've also loved being free to do film. I enjoyed meeting Frank & I know you will love the new Kristina that he has found. I learned so much from my 'GH' home & want to grow further."

    Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis) also sounded off and tweeted, "Lexi's already got offers for many Primetime projects. She didn't want to sign contract & Kristina contract role. IMO she made the right decision."

    Previously Reported on April 17:

    TVLine is reporting that "General Hospital" has recast the role of Kristina Adela Corinthos Davis, previously played by Lexi Ainsworth, who left in October.

    Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Alexis' (Nancy Lee Grahn) daughter will now be played by Lindsey Morgan, who has previously had roles on "Happy Endings" and "How I Met Your Mother." She will make her debut in Port Charles on May 22.

    Morgan confirmed the announcement on her Twitter page today. "I finally get to talk about it! Officially playing Kristina on General Hospital! Ahhhh!"

    Oh yay! She's so pretty! I hope she comes back with a boyfriend though, the Ethan mess is getting old.

    Let's hope this Kristina can act...and not just have a perpetual sneer on her face and pout on her lips ;-)

    KC11 the Kristina you are referring to is Alexis's sister played by Jaime Ray Newman. The character died in an explosion, later Alexis then named her daughter after her.

    She has only been on the show for a short time but I hate the storyline she has.

    Completely dislike the new Kristina. That scowl has got to go. i'm sure she's a decent actress, just not as Kristina
