I don’t care what she won, what has she done since? Ashley is much more attractive, which Bridget needed to be with the S/L’s they were writing for her, different relationships. She did an amazing job evolving Bridget from an insecure, unstable girl into a confident, strong, independent woman! Ashley has also been in numerous movies, and appearances on several prime time shows, and on another soap.

What has Finnigan done since? Starred in her own primetime tv series and performed in numerous others—up to and including the present—-not to mention married a Hollywood actor and became a mother….her plate is full! And as beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I happen to find her more attractive than Ms. Jones…just saying! I’ve never taken to that particular actress, nor the one currently playing Kristina. for the record!…I strongly preferred the lovely Lindsay Morgan who portrayed the sexy, tempestuous Krissie…despite her character’s occasional immaturity, she infused the role with a more grown-up vibe that would have provided a greater-balanced relationship with Parker…at least for me, this storyline has been fraught with problems not because of its subject matter, but the actors and the way their characters have come across…Krissie as a spoiled, petulant teenager and Parker as the seemingly much older woman whose power position in a professor/student dynamic crossed the line…which would be no different were she of the male persuasion. (Which many of us initially thought was indeed the case, and we weren’t liking the idea even then….) Lastly, I don’t know how long you have watched GH, but Sonny’s brief May-December romance with the far younger Emily raised just as many eyebrows….it was not a popular pairing by any stretch of the imagination, and fans were quite pleased when it was finished.

Umm..Ashley has been in numerous movies and numerous prime time shows,including the successful True Blood series, while she was playing Bridget. She’s talented enough to do both as she did again in 2016 on GH & B&B.
She didn’t need to make a splash marrying an actor… who cares. She’s married & has 2 kids and has been doing movies & primetime while being a hands-on-mom! She’s getting ready to go film another movie! VERY BUSY ACTRESS.
She’s amazingly beautiful, talented & is phenomenal with her fans.
Ashley is the one & only Bridget Forrester! That’s why she was asked back several times & currently.
On GH, Lexi & Ashley have phenomenal chemistry & a beautiful groundbreaking story. Better brush up on the story b/c nothing ever happened while she was Kristina’s Prof. So take your power trip & &@$&! Last year after reuniting, nothing ever happened UNTIL Kristina withdrew from PCU, again NO problem!
They have the best chemistry of any couple on GH.
I’m sick & tired of hearing the same idiotic statement about age. It doesn’t matter if the couple is happy, not you, the couple themselves…AGE is for wine.
BTW, Ellen & Portia have 15 years age difference, exactly the same as Ashley & Lexi.
Beyonce & J-Z have 12 years age difference.
There are many more too…that’s the stupidest remark ever!

Sent before adding this, not only Sonny & Emily,
but Luke & Laura (she was a teenager) & raped but went on to have a relationship!! At least Kristina is a consenting adult, Laura was not!
Morgan & Ava
Griffin & Ava
Both accepted as was huge age difference with Luke & Laura & he’s a rapist!!!

Preach, Shay, preach!

Thank you, MJ100…I actually expounded upon a number of the previously mentioned points, but as is so often the case, I was not allowed the courtesy of a posted response. However, all you have said comports with my views, as well. Spot on!

Wait…you actually said, “Ashley is much more attractive (than Jennifer) and you’re calling others judgmental?? Pot, meet Kettle.
