Actor Roundup: Which Former Co-Stars Have You Been In Touch With Recently?

“I'm always in touch with Tamara [Clatterbuck, ex-Alice], Lauren [Woodland, ex-Brittany] and Jennifer [Gareis, ex-Grace; Donna, B&B]. The four of us became great friends after meeting each other on the show and have carried on as friends outside of the show for decades.”

“I’ve been in touch with Bradley Cole, my co-star from GUIDING LIGHT [ex-Richard/Jeffrey]. And, of course, Wes Ramsey [ex-Peter, GH, ex-Sam, GL, her boyfriend]!”

“Well, of course, I've checked in with Christian [J. LeBlanc, Michael, Y&R], considering what he's dealing with [a cancer diagnosis]. I saw Peter Bergman [Jack, Y&R] at the Emmys; we hadn’t connected in a bit so it was really fun to see Peter and catch up with him. I also saw [Michael] Damian [Danny, Y&R]! Michael and I, we were just a couple of clowns back in the day on the show and I was really happy to see that he was back on Y&R, but I hadn’t seen him at work, hadn’t bumped into him in the halls or anything. So I got to see him at the Emmys and snuck up behind him and grabbed him and pulled him into a bear hug and lifted him up and he had no idea who it was [laughs]. It was so great to see him. He’s a lovely guy. And also, Eric [Braeden, Victor, Y&R] sneaked onto the [B&B] set and surprised me there, which was great! It was great to see him.”

“Lindsay Arnold [ex-Allie]. She is one of my best friends. We’re in book club together. We’re in another artistic community together. We’re always doing things and hanging out. I celebrated Victoria Konefal’s [ex-Ciara] birthday with her a couple of months ago. I talked to Aketra Sevillian [ex-Talia] as well. She’s also a good friend.”

“Jordi Vilasuso [ex-Rey]. I reached out to congratulate him on the recent birth of his third daughter. I’m so happy for him.”

“I just spoke to Tom Degnan [ex-Joey, ONE LIFE TO LIVE; Kelly played Cutter] and his wife. We’re planning a get-together ASAP.”

“Kate Mansi [ex-Abigail, DAYS; Kristina, GH]. Kate and I are always sort of sharing intel. We both went back to daytime within weeks of each other; she started on GENERAL HOSPITAL right around the same time I started on DAYS. It's been really fun to compare notes and keep track of each other. We look out for each other.”
