General Hospital spoilers had recently reported that she credits ex-husband, Brandon Barash (ex-Johnny, GH) for pushing her to seek help and openly admit she is grateful for the “push” as she would never want their daughter, Harper Rose (ex-Georgie, GH) to ever see her weighing the 85 lbs that she was and think that was normal.
