Key Takeaways
- Hope’s soap career began on B&B in 2017.
- In 2020, she brought her B&B character Sally to Y&R.
- Hope took a recent stroll down memory lane while reflecting on her soap journey.
Best Gift Ever
Recently, the 2016 trend has taken over social media. People have been posting photos from 2016 and reflecting on everything monumental that happened that year. Hope is one of the many soap stars who’s hopped on the trend.
On her Instagram story, the actress posted a series of photos reflecting on her 2016, which was a big year for the actress. In one photo dated from December 2016, Hope is enjoying a night out when she receives a phone call that would change her life.
“The night I found out I booked Sally Spectra on The Bold and the Beautiful. Little did I know, it would be one of the greatest gifts of my life. It was much needed win for the end of a whirlwind year,” the actress captioned the photo.
A few weeks later in January 2017, Hope made her B&B debut as Sally. Hope continued playing Sally on B&B until August 2020, then three months later took her character to Y&R, and the rest as they say is history.
Daytime Darling
Hope has become one of daytime’s most popular and talented actresses. For nine years, she’s been wowing fans with her performances as Sally.
Whether Sally’s scheming to get ahead in her career or dealing with a relationship heartbreak, Hope knocks it out of the park. Her outstanding work has earned her three Daytime Emmy nominations for Supporting Actress, and in 2024 she took home the award.
Sally remains an integral part of Y&R and is usually front and center in many storylines. Currently, her relationship with Billy (Jason Thompson) is facing a huge challenge due to his reckless behavior. Billy’s quest for revenge against those who’ve wronged him could cost him the best thing in his life, Sally.
Sally has been Billy’s rock, sticking by him through thick and thin. But his latest stunt could have her reaching her breaking point, meaning the end of Silly’s relationship. Although, it’ll mean more heartache for Sally, there’s no doubt that Hope will put on an amazing, gripping performance.
