Soap Opera News: Happy Days Are Here Again

After announcing some mass exits, over the past few weeks, Days of Our Lives is celebrating some major comebacks. Soap Hub has the details on Alison Sweeney’s (Sami) big return, as well as Lucas Adams’ as Tripp.

Golden Locks

What’s the story behind Nikki’s new hair on The Young and the Restless? Actress Melody Thomas Scott addressed “WigGate” head one and you’ll want to read all about it.

Troublemaker Back to GH

Her last visit to Port Charles stirred up all kinds of trouble. Now comes the news that Kelly Thiebaud is heading back to General Hospital for another run as Dr. Britt Westbourne. And her co-star Finola Hughes (Anna) is absolutely thrilled about it.

Being away from the GH studio, when the soap closed down production due to the coronavirus, made Maurice Benard (Sonny) “eat humble pie.” Check out the actor explaining his feelings here.

Staying On the Job

After years of playing Brooke on The Bold and the Beautiful, Katherine Kelly Lang knows a thing or ten about keeping a job. The actress shared her thoughts on how not to get fired during the AEG Live Soiree Film & TV Festival.

A Sad Loss

Veteran soap star Marcus Smythe, best known for his role as Peter Love on Another World, passed away at the age of 70. The actor had been battling brain cancer.

Vincent Irizarry (ex-Deimos, DAYS) mourned the loss of his beautiful cousin, Lauren Irizarry, who passed away weeks ago. Adding to his pain has been being unable to attend the memorial celebrating her life and being there to support his uncle, Johnny.
