People still have a chuckle about the cough medicine part! [Dru was zonked out on cough medicine and, thinking Malcolm, played by Shemar Moore, was Neil, made love to him.]
You’re starring in Lifetime’s Pride & Prejudice on Saturday, June 1. And the series you created, The Rich & The Ruthless returns for season 3 on Tuesday, May 23 on UMC, AMC Networks streaming service. What else is next?
I’ll be at the American Black Film festival from June 12 onto June 16 in Miami. And we just won Best Ensemble (Comedy) for The Rich & The Ruthless at the Independent Series Awards. I had talked to Kristoff about him coming onto The Rich and the Ruthless.
I have had Brenda Epperson (ex-Ashley) come on and Kimberlin Brown (ex-Sheila), too. I have been in a position to offer diversity on the other side of the camera for people.
We’ve employed African-American and minority actors. We did many storylines on YR – adoption and the cochlear hearing device, both with Devon (Bryton James).
You and Kristoff were on-screen partners and off-screen friends. How are you doing?
I continue to process his loss. It is tremendous not only for me but the family of fans, his own family, which goes without saying.
What do you think? Post a comment!
I remain in touch with his dad, Christopher. [Losing Kristoff is] not one-dimensional. Many people are still processing this loss.
You can’t expect for people to just get over the loss of someone who’s been in their living room for 26 years. It’s going to take time for people, including myself, and I’m allowing myself time to process this loss.
Individuals, whether in entertainment or not, should be allowed the help they need. I believe that Kristoff did not believe that was possible for him.
The Young and the Restless airs weekdays on CBS. Check local listings for air times.
