On a recent episode of ABC’s 911, Bold and the Beautiful alum Jennifer Finnigan guest starred with a familiar face—her real-life husband, Jonathan Silverman. They have been together for 20 years and married for roughly 17 years. So, it was a lot of fun to see them play a contentious couple on the hit Ryan Murphy series that moved from FOX to ABC this season.
What was fun about this particular guest star appearance was knowing that Finnigan and Silverman were married in real life. In the episode of 911 titled “Confessions,” they were a husband and wife negotiating a tricky divorce. And, of course, it was messy, toxic, and chaotic.
Silverman’s character had hooked up with his attorney. On top of that, every time he sneezed, Finnigan’s character knew he was lying. That was his big tell. Unfortunately, for the husband, that would be his undoing. Ultimately, his secrets and lies blew up figuratively and literally.
Yes, this is a rescue first responder show, so expect blood and guts should you choose to watch Finnigan and Silverman play an antagonistic couple where there’s a thin line between love and hate. Check out the photos below.
Finnigan played Brooke’s (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Eric’s (John McCook) daughter, Bridget Forrester, from 2000 to 2004. During her B&B reign, she married Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) and became interested in Ridge (then-Ronn Moss) after it was discovered he was biologically a Marone and not a Forrester. From 2002 – 2004, Finnigan won back-to-back-to-back Emmys for Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series.

After leaving the soap, she has worked steadily on TV shows in the U.S. and Canada. Most recently, she starred in a Canadian series called Moonshine, which is a dramedy about a dysfunctional family battling to take control of the family business. Her other credits include Tyrant, Salvation, Close to Home, and Crossing Jordan.
Her husband, Jonathan Silverman, is best known for movies like Weekend at Bernies and TV shows like The Single Guy. Silverman and Finnigan often collaborate on the same projects.
