General Hospital spoilers reveal that Ava Jerome (Maura West) is a fan-favorite character. While the character has gone through several transformations over the years, Ava has always been strong and independent. So, this has fans asking on social media, “What happened to the real Ava Jerome?” Well, it’s possible that Ava’s fire is coming back, so let’s discuss the storyline.

General Hospital spoilers – Ava Jerome’s Transformations

GH spoilers reveal that Ava has gone through several transformations over the years. Fans have watched as Ava has been both a good girl as well as a monstrous villain.

No matter which face she wears, Ava has always been really strong, capable, resourceful, and independent. Ava isn’t a ditzy character or one that is easily bamboozled.

GH Spoilers – Character Weakened

So, this storyline with Austin Gatlin-Holt (Roger Howarth) and Mason Gatlin (Nathanyael Grey) has Ava cowering in fear, which isn’t like her at all. Now, if it were a less formidable character such as Willow Tait Corinthos (Katelyn MacMullen), then cowering would more sense.

However, Ava’s history proves that she is more than capable of taking care of her enemies. There have been far worse villains that Ava has faced with no problem. So, what the heck is going on?

General Hospital spoilers – Sonny Corinthos’ Truth Bomb

General Hospital spoilers reveal that Ava has been going to Sonny lately for help. On Wednesday, November 8, 2023, Sonny dropped a reality check on Ava. Sonny implied that Ava must have feelings for Austin or she would have seen it coming a mile away.

Ava denied having feelings for Austin and covered by claiming they had gotten close but just as friends. Then, Sonny connected the dots for Ava.

GH Spoilers – Fiery Personality Returns?

As Ava realized the truth, her face darkened and her eyes narrowed into slits. It’s possible that Ava’s fiery personality will return with a vengeance. This is exactly what fans are hoping for, but what does it mean for Ava’s future?

Well, now that Mason and Austin are linked to Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober), Ava could align with other Port Charles residents to take action.

Sometimes people do fall for a while. When Ava gets back up and reclaims her true character, her justice scheme could be remembered for years to come.

What do you think is the reason for Ava’s transformation? Is it only a matter of time before Ava’s true character resurfaces? What does she plan to do about the Mason/Austin/Cyrus situation now that Sonny connected the dots?
