GH Spoilers Speculation: The Obstacle Maxie and Austin Never Saw Coming

GH spoilers are pointing to Maxie Jones embarking on a relationship with Dr. Austin Gatlin-Holt. After the killer psycho that was Peter August, Austin definitely feels like a step up.

But the look little Georgie Spinelli (Lily Fisher) was shooting her mommy and the good doctor recently suggested she was not down with this development. And we don’t blame her.

General Hospital: Recent History

The last guy Maxie (Kirsten Storms) was all set to marry led to Maxie claiming that their baby, Louise, was kidnapped. The deception prompted Maxie to act even more unhinged than usual, and the relationship with Peter (Wes Ramsey) was what caused Damian Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) to limit how much time Georgie spent with her mother.

Then, Maxie was kidnapped, rescued, and, at the end, she came home with a brand new sister for Georgie — what kid is going to enjoy any of that? Now, Bailey’s adjustment is the most important thing in Maxie’s life. Leaving Georgie the short end of the parental stick.

The father of Georgie’s little brother, James, was a saint. Not just compared to Peter, but compared to Maxie, too. Unfortunately, Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) was killed, sending Maxie into paroxysms of grief, and causing her to fixate on her sweet baby James. Leaving Georgie the short end of the parental stick.

Now, instead of making up for lost time with not just Bailey, but Georgie and James, too, Maxie seemed primed to obsess over Austin (Roger Howarth). Not only does this (say it with us now) leave Georgie with the short end of the parental stick, but it likely won’t sit too well with Spinelli, either.

He cares about Maxie and her other two kids, but Georgie is his first priority. If Spinnelli senses Georgie is unhappy with Maxie’s new boyfriend, he’ll limit mother/daughter visitation again. Leaving…well, you know… And it will be all Austin’s fault!
