Lexi Ainsworth & Ashley Jones Leaving 'General Hospital'?

The pairing of Kristina and Parker on General Hospital has been consistently popular in our Soap of the Week poll, and across the internet. But according to ABC Soaps in Depth, the actresses playing the roles are leaving the iconic soap opera. Although a rep from the soap had no comment on their status, rumors are flying around that Lexi Ainsworth and Ashley Jones are out as Kristina and Parker.

The last General Hospital viewers saw of Parker and Kristina was on the Oct. 11 episode when Alexis’ daughter informed her mother that she was moving away to live with her former professor. That can't possibly be the end, right?

Stay tuned.

Meanwhile, look for Jones on the October 24th episode of CBS primetime drama NCIS in the role of Nancy Douglas.
