EXCLUSIVE! WHY GH’S LUCY DIDN’T SAY GOOD-BYE TO RAFE

Comments

Some GH fans were in an uproar when Lynn Herring's Lucy was conspicuously absent from Rafe's deathbed. But on the July 21 episode, the show addressed Lucy's deep grief over the death of the teen, who she considered to be her cousin. Head Writer Ron Carlivati explains that the decision not to have Lucy present for Rafe's last moments was the result of how crowded those episodes were. "There was so much story going on at the hospital with Molly and Rafe, with Alice," he says. "It was one more character to add into that mix and the days just became too big and too complicated. So, we decided to give Lucy her own separate moment after the fact [to mourn Rafe]."
