So many fans worldwide have missed seeing the talents of Ashley Jones on the CBS Daytime drama series, The Bold and the Beautiful and in the role of Bridget Forrester.  Jones played the role from 2004- 2010 on contract and has returned several times including in 2012 and 2013 off-contract while concentrating on her Primetime television and movie career, in which she is always working!

Now in an intriguing exchange on Twitter, it looks like Jones may be reprising the role of Bridget in upcoming episodes of B&B!  In a communication with her on-screen father John McCook (Eric) that began with McCook tweeting: @AshleyAJones Bridget visiting her Family on B&B? Been a long time…Let’s wear name tags..”   Jones sent out to tweets one stating:  “I cannot wait.” and the other stating, “See you soon, doll!”

If Bridget is on her way back to Los Angeles to some Forrester family drama, what could it be?  A wedding? Corporate intrigue?  A problem with her father? None of the above? 

Let us know if you would like to see Ashley make a return visit to B&B and if so, what would you like to see her come back for?  Comment below!

I hope this means that we may see Beemer back soon.

Shes a good actress but never thot her character made any kind of impact on the the story.

Bridget is a legacy character on B&B and should be brought back permanently, not just for sporadic visits every now and then. Ashley Jones is a true talent, and is sorely missed on the show. I wish they would bring her, Jack Wagner and Lesley-Anne Down back.

Damn it when will someone in the writers room figure out Felicia Forrester SHOULD be in this damn mix carrying on Stephanie’s legacy. I miss that character so much.

I hope this means jack wagner and nick marone and the marone family are on there way back minus stupid owen, long live bridget and her true love nick marone. It would also be good to get jack and ashley agian since they have a real romance

Bridget Forrester went through such character assassination (and some really stupid story lines) during the Ashley Jones era. I am not sure the character really serves purpose anymore.

I did love Bridget during the years of Jennifer Finnegan’s portrayal. The Bridget character then seemed more vital and genuine.

I want Jennifer Finnigan!!

I agree 100%

You can see Jennifer on the nighttime show Tryant beginning second season tomorrow nite on I think FX! Yes she was wonderful three years in a row daytime Emmy for younger actress.

I’ve looked online and can’t find an explanation of who Bridget is. Can anyone tell me whose daughter she is? Maybe a little history? Thanks.

Bridget is Eric and Brooke’s daughter, she is also Deacon’s ex wife, and mother to Logan, her son with Owen!! Also was thrice married to Nick Marone!!!

She is Eric and Brooke’s daughter for a long time they thought Bridget was Ridge’s but it turned out she was Eric’s after all. She was a very important character until Brad decided to age Hope and put us in the endless four years of that character. Now we are in the endless saga of Maya Myron Brad Bell has a short attention span.

I also see where he has brought Steffy back for round 600 of the Liam/Steffy mess.

She is an orphan who was raised by Dingos.

Bridget Forrester is long overdue to be heading back to LA!!!! And she better have Logan in tow with her!!! Hard to believe sexpot Brooke as a grandmother!! Haha….she should comeback and get with Carter, or fight Quinn for Deacon!!!

I have always liked this woman : Ashley Jones

she has a lot of presence… a natural in front of the camera

that’s not to say I know her work… saw bits and pieces of her work on GH… which is where I noticed her

it crossed my mind…. hum? “could” she be the new Sami ? (LOL) on DAYS

lo and behold… they are the same age… in real time… 38

just saying… a fresh new character

I’m a ditz : I noticed her work… on Y&R

Ugh!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why Jones?!? Why not Finigan??

Would love to see her back. Felicia too. And Thorne is supposedly coming back.

Hoping this is short term, which it sounds like it is, so I’m ok with it.

The only bridget I really liked was Jennifer Finnigan. I’m ok if Bridget makes a visit. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen her.

Yes, I would like to see Ashley return as Bridget. I hope you make it interesting for her.

We absolutely need her back. She is an integral part of the family… a Logan and a Forrester.
I want to see her break Katie and Bill up. Katie screwed Bridget over years ago. It’s time.

Absolutely bring her back along with her tv husband (Deacon Sharp) who had a baby with her mother and is now married to Quinn. Talking about DRAMA!!!!

I would love to see Ashley come back

Nancy Lee Grahn’s Star-Studded ALS Fundraiser Reveals “I’ll Be There” Video Featuring Soap Opera Notables

Talk about your impressive line-up! It’s a soap fans dream and for a great cause. General Hospital’s Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis) is prepping her one-night only ALS fundraiser which will feature many of her friends and co-stars.

The benefit is set for May 4th in Glendale, California. Slated to participate are Genie Francis, Jane Elliot, Peter Bergman, Maurice Benard, Eileen Davidson, Thorsten Kaye, Michelle Stafford, Stephen Nichols, Rena Sofer, Jason Thompson, Kelly Monaco, Melissa Claire Egan, Maura West, Kristina Wagner, Gregory Harrison, Trevor St. John, Kate Mansi, Kirsten Storms, Cynthia Watros, and many others.

On Wednesday, Grahn took to her social media and released an “I’ll be there” video shout-out featuring, Monaco, Elliot, Bergman, Bernard, West, Harrison, St. John and more. In a touching and important moment in the new video, Michelle Strogny, who is battling ALS, is featured.

Previously, in speaking with Soap Opera Digest on the impetus of the event, Grahn recalled, “I was actually doing Zoom events during Covid and I met this woman that I just fell in love with, Michelle Strojny. At the time, Michelle had been living with ALS for four years. Now, it’s five years. She is a mom of a teenage son, she has the most wonderful husband, and she has been dealing with this [disease] for quite a while. And obviously, there isn’t a cure yet. It’s not survivable yet. But as she says, it’s not incurable. Nothing is; it’s underfunded. But anyway, I just really dug this woman. She is so grounded and filled with grace, and she spends all of her time working to raise money for the cause. We did a fundraiser for her last year and then I thought, ‘You know what? The soaps don’t ever get together to do something for charity.’ Collectively, we have this amazing community and we don’t collectively use it for a good cause, and I think it’s such an easy thing for us to do and we could potentially really make a difference.”

As GH viewers know, Gregory Harrison is playing the character of Gregory Chase, who is also battling ALS in a touching storyline that is currently playing out shedding a light on this disease.

‘General Hospital’ Writer Shannon Peace Let Go, and Shares on Sprina: “One of My Only Regrets is to Not Have the Opportunity to Develop That ‘Ship’ Further”

As General Hospital’s new head writing team of Elizabeth Korte and Patrick Mulcahy gets off the ground and running, there are still changes a foot on the writing team.

Now comes word via breakdown writer Shannon Peace that she is no longer on contract with the long-running ABC soap heading into its 61st season. Peace shared a heartfelt message on her Instagram, thanking the fans, and the show for the opportunity and the importance of diversity in the writers room.

Peace began, “After almost 3 years on staff and 106 episodes penned, I am no longer on contract with General Hospital. Writing for this country’s longest running television serial drama has been an education of epic proportions; I will forever be grateful that I earned my WGA card on a daytime fixture that holds memories for so many.” (Peace pictured below with GH EP Frank Valentini and script writer, Charlotte Gibson from about ten months ago).

Shannon added “Even more importantly, as the sole Black breakdown writer (and only POC in the writers room) during my tenure, I pushed for vital interactions and discussions that prioritized inclusion, visibility, and representation”

The writer pointed to the example of vital interaction when in story, “Stella and Portia’s frank July 2022 conversation about the role race played in Esme’s framing of Trina is just one example of the impact I’m gratified to have had.”

Acknowledging former GH co-head writers was also part of Peace’s farewell expressing, “Appreciation to my former bosses, Chris Van Etten and Dan O’Connor – not only taking a chance on me, but for valuing my opinion and championing my voice.”

Many GH fans know that Peace was key to the development of the love story between Trina Robinson and Spencer Cassadine as played by Tabyana Ali and Nicholas Chavez. Shannon gave a special shout-out to ‘Sprina’ fans, “I also want to thank fans who were supportive of my work, especially the recognition of my love for ‘Sprina’. One of my only regrets is not having to develop that ‘ship’ further.”

She concludes her statement with,”In the aftermath of a historic writer’s strike that shed new light on the troubling ways writers are regarded in daytime, my sincere hope is that General Hospital recommits to valuing staff writer efforts and input, with a more intentional focus on diverse viewpoints — and thrives for another 60 years.”

Accompanying her post, Shannon added, “Thank you all for the love and support these last few years. I hope GH fans get all they hope for and more!”

So, what do you think about GH not renewing Shannon’s contract? Will there be more continued changes afoot? What do you think is the future of ‘Sprina’ anyway at this point as viewers wait to see if Nicholas Chavez officially returns to the show?  Comment below.
