How Patrika Darbo Kept Her B&B Role A Secret
It took Patrika Darbo (Shirley, B&B; ex-Nancy, DAYS) two decades to land a role on B&B, and she is so thankful to be a part of the cast. In the new issue, the actress reveals how the news of her joining a new soap nearly got out. “I remember walking into DAYS in January and someone said, ‘I hear you’re going over to another show.’ I was panic-stricken,” she recalls. “This was at 6:15 in the morning and I was like, ‘I don’t know how you found out but you can’t say anything to anyone!’ There I was, waking my agent up at 6:30 going, ‘I didn’t say anything but the cat is out of the bag.’ It just created chaos. Luckily, it didn’t get out but we were walking on eggshells. It was terrifying.” For more from Darbo, who talks about the long road to B&B and more, check out the new issue of Soap Opera Digest, on sale now.
