Sally Spectra had one daughter, Macy, but throughout soap opera history it’s not uncommon for matriarchs to take on surrogate children. That’s just what happened on The Bold and the Beautiful when Sally acted as substitute mom to her scattered secretary, Darla Einstein (played by Schae Harrison).

Darla did ask Bill to help bail out ailing Spectra Fashions.

Always A Bridesmaid
Darla continued to date. She shared a few interludes with lawyer Connor Davis and designers Anthony Armando and Clarke Garrison. Alas, none of these relationships ever developed into something stronger. Darla proved she was a loyal pal to Macy when she took part in her alcoholic friend’s intervention.
