The Famous Clink, Boom Moment
Veteran GH fans recall Melgar’s exit from the show as Lily, Sonny’s then-pregnant wife, as the ‘clink, boom!’ moment. While Brenda Barrett (Vanessa Marcil) and Jax (Ingo Rademacher) were celebrating their marriage with a champagne toast (that was the ‘clink’), Lily got into Sonny’s car unaware that it was booby-trapped with a bomb (that was the boom!).
After exiting GH, Melgar had a run as Claudia Cortéz on The Bold and the Beautiful. Claudia was paired with Thorne during her time on B&B. Melgar’s also known for her role as Janice on the Amazon Prime series The Bay. Melgar has won two Daytime Emmys for her role as a producer on The Bay. Recently, the actress made her sitcom debut on the peacock’s Kenan, starring Kenan Thompson (Saturday Night Live). Soap Hub sends sincere condolences to Lilly Melgar at this difficult time.
