One of soap opera’s favorite leading ladies, Julia Barr is back to Pine Valley and All My Children for the soaps 40th anniversary episodes on January 4th and 5th. In a new interview with TV Guide Magazine, the actress discusses her leaving the soap opera back in 2006 after ABC wanted her to go off-conteact and work as a recurring player. Barr chose not to stay with the show under those terms. What followed was a decision made by some powers-that-be at AMC to not give Barr a proper exit after decades with the series. Now, as we had into 2010 with that behind her, the actress opens up about her return to the little soap town that made her famous. Here are a few excerpts:
Barr on her being written off with no exit scene…”It was not an appropriate way to go. After being on the show for so long the character needed some kind of closure and so did the fans. For whatever reason that didn’t happen. Now, hopefully, it will. I would have liked to have kept working if there was story for Brooke but that’s something I had no control over. I know people miss the interaction [that might have been]. I’m saddened by the loss of historical characters on AMC. When they killed Dixie with the poisoned pancakes, it was like the death of romance. For me, that was worse than my own exit!”
On what she has been working on….”Jill Larson [AMC’s Opal] and I are developing a series that she’s been writing for the internet We’re editing the teaser trailer now. Linda Dano is in it with us. It’s called The Vindicated, about three women who are at a point in their lives where they are without their male counterparts for different reasons. Hopefully it’ll see the light of day. It’s been a steep learning curve for us on the internet. The show is a little out there. That’s the business side, the other part of my life finds me doing whatever I want to do because I no longer have a schedule that constricts me. For such a long time I was fully busy with AMC and raising a family and now it’s such a nice experience to just go off to the theatre or have lunch with friends whenever I want to.”

I’m glad Julia Barr’s Brooke English is making an appearance on AMC for the 40th anniversary. The fact that tptb could not create story for the lovely and talented Barr and the way they mis-handled the exit speaks volumns on why this show is on a decline. It wasn’t only her legacy character that got screwed over, besides Dixie, there’s Edmund and Maria and Julia Santos. We will see how they handle the 40th show and the returning characters. If it’s going to be a 5 min thing with 15 sec flashback then back to the Ryan story 90%. Very… Read more »

Chrishell Stause and Singer G Flip Confirm Relationship
During the premiere of Friday night’s Selling Sunset reunion show on Netflix, there were several major moments, but one of them surprised many.
Former All My Children, Days of our Lives, and ‘Young and the Restless’ star, Chrishell Stause confirmed that she is in a relationship with Australian singer, G Flip.
Stause revealed that she is seeing the non-binary singer after the moderator, Tan France asked Chrishell if she was seeing anyone. The former soap star expressed: “I recently have been spending a lot of time with someone that’s very important to me. Their name is G Flip. They’re non-binary, so they go by they/them,” adding, “They are an extremely talented musician.”
Leave it to her soap background to play a part in the ultimate connection between Chrishell and G Flip. Stause explained: “It started because I was just going to be in their video. And it’s about this chaotic love story. I come from soaps, I love acting. And with the job that we have, I don’t always get to do it. At first of course I was like yes, let’s do that.”
G Flip’s latest single GAY 4 Me is out now and her new single is dropping on May 13th, GET ME OUTTA HERE.

Previously, Chrishell was dating her ‘Selling Sunset’ boss, Jason Oppenheim, who opined about the break-up of their relationship on the special. In a scene shown on the Netflix special, Oppenheim shared, “This is not the time of my life where I want to have a family.” Months back, reports had surfaced that the couple had differences they could not overcome. However, now Jason expressed that Stause was “the love of my life” and said he may regret forever the fact that he let her go.
Now back to present time. According to PEOPLE.com, Stause is enjoying the company of G Flip, and the two were seen out and about at West Hollywood’s nightclub/bar, The Abbey, this past Thursday cozying up to one another.
In addition, it appears that Stause and G Flip are now living together in Chrishell’s Los Angeles home, which reportedly was purchased, in part, by her selling her wedding to her ex husband, This Is Us star, Justin Hartley.
Over the last 24 hours, Stause took to her Instagram story clad in a bikini, and showed us the renovation progress of a large closet at her home. She closed the IG story withm “I’m gonna come out of it now,” to which several of her former DAYS castmates had fun with the ‘play on words’ response and shared some comments back to her.
So, what do you think of Chrishell entering into a relationship with G Flip? We wish them the best. Share your thoughts below.
