Max Giambetti was the well-mannered and stoic son of a mobster, and thus understood the dangers that came with a career working for Sonny Corinthos. Max was more like family to the Corinthos than an employee. Over the years working for Sonny’s organization Max proved his loyalty time and time again — protecting the man from potential violence, helping Sonny deal with his bipolar disorder, taking bullets in the line of duty, and mourning the death of Morgan Corinthos (Bryan Craig) along with the family (via Soaps in Depth).
In 2008, Max and Sonny’s attorney Diane Miller grew close when she comforted him after Morgan’s death, according to Soap Central. The two hit it off and what started as a purely physical relationship developed into love, and the two committed to each other despite Sonny’s concerns that it could affect their work. Diane had a difficult time accepting the dangers of Max’s job, but the two managed to make things work for several years. In 2011, the couple broke things off when Diane left on a press tour for a book she had written with Damien Spinelli (Bradford Anderson). Max and Diane still felt connected to one another and ended up reconciling in 2015 and moving in together.
Though Max hasn’t been a regular on “General Hospital” since 2019, and a representative for the Cheetwood brothers confirmed that the two wouldn’t be returning to the show anytime soon, we can assume that Max is still working diligently for Sonny behind the scenes.
