General Hospital and Days of Our Lives Alum Brandon Barash Expecting Third Child
Former General Hospital and Days of Our Lives star Brandon Barash shared exciting news with fans on March 5: He and his wife, Isabella, are expecting another baby! The pair already has one son, Joaquin Lee Barash, who was born in September 2023, and Barash is also a doting dad to Harper Rose Barash, 11, who he shares with ex-wife Kirsten Storms (Maxie, GH).
Party of Five
The actor revealed that he is expanding his family on Instagram, where he shared a photo carousel documenting Isabella’s pregnancy, as well as sweet shots of his kids. One image depicted the clan celebrating the baby’s gender reveal — it’s a boy! “I heard the news today, OH BOY!!! Well — we heard the news months ago, you heard it today,” he wrote. “Family pictures are about to look a lil different…and A LOT more love to go around. Baby Barash #3(!?) coming in June!”
Barash and Storms met on the set of GH — he played Johnny Zacchara from 2007-13 — and married in 2013. They split in 2016, and the actor tied the knot with Isabella on December 17, 2022, with Harper serving as flower girl and junior bridesmaid.

On DAYS, the actor played two roles, Stefan O. DiMera and Stefano’s twin, Jake DiMera. His time on the show kicked off in 2019 and concluded in 2024, and the actor relocated to Nashville in 2025. At the end of his Instagram message, he beamed, “Tennessee, keep bringin’ the blessings 🙏❤️”
Barash’s post quickly racked up “likes” from his friends in the daytime community such as Eileen Davidson (Ashley, Y&R; ex-Kristen, DAYS), Jason Thompson (Billy, Y&R; ex-Patrick, GH), Kimberly McCullough (ex-Robin, GH), Galen Gering (Rafe, DAYS), Bradford Anderson (Spinelli, GH), Carson Boatman (Johnny, DAYS), Lucas Adams (Noah, Y&R; ex-Tripp, DAYS) and Brandon Beemer (Shawn, DAYS). “Congrats to the fam!!!🙌🙌” wrote Eric Martsolf (Brady, DAYS).
