Earlier this week, Rena Sofer announced that she and her husband, Sanford Bookstaver, left Los Angeles and moved back to New York.
So, if the actress is living on the other coast, does that mean she is also leaving General Hospital? Nope, she will fly back to Port Charles whenever they call for Lois Cerullo to appear on the Daytime Drama.
According to Soap Opera Digest, she is not the only actor on the Soap Opera who does not live in LA. Kirsten Storms just moved to Nashville, and Rick Hearst lives in New Jersey.
If I were GH, I would have Lois and Ric start dating. This way, they can film their scenes in NYC, and they won’t have to fly them out here.
Rena Sofer left General Hospital almost 26 years ago, but her character Lois Cerullo was never forgotten. Therefore, she is returning to Port Charles next month, according to People.
And it couldn’t come at a better time. Her ex, Ned Quartermaine (Wally Kurth), has amnesia, and he thinks he is his musical alter-ego, Eddie Maine. Lois fell in love with the musician. So much so that they have a daughter, Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton), from their invalid marriage because he was married to someone else.
Oh, and did I mention that Ned is married again to someone else? But that might change as soon as he sees Lois.
Hopefully, it will, so that Lois can stay in town for a long time because I don’t want her going anywhere.
Rena Sofer has made a big change in her life by opting to leave The Bold and the Beautiful. She decided to make another change, and that was to cut off her beautiful long hair for a bold hairstyle.
What did she do with the 12 inches she cut off? She donated them to Locks of Love, and someone is going to thank her for her donation.
Rena Sofer has been playing Quinn Fuller on The Bold & the Beautiful for 9 years, but her time on the Daytime Drama has come to an end.
“I know it’s heartbreaking for some and it is for me as well, but it’s time for me to move on with both my acting career and my pottery career,” the actress wrote. “Thank you all for your support over the last 9 years and in the future! And check out Renasoferceramics.com for the other side of my life!!”
The actress told Soap Opera Digest that this was her choice, and she knew for a while that she was not going to sign a new contract. So when they wrapped up Quinn and Carter’s storyline, she decided that it was the perfect time to say goodbye.
She filmed her final episode on August 5th, and it will air on August 29th.
I can’t wait to see what is next for my high school alum because I know it will be really interesting. As interesting as her pottery. You should check it out because it is not the usual stuff you see.
Back in March, all of the scripted television production was forced to stop shooting because of the coronavirus pandemic. Last month, the Governor of California said that filming could resume, and The Bold and the Beautiful was the first show to get back to work.
After a slight testing hiccup, they were back at full time. The Daytime Drama has done such a good job that CBS says that they will start airing new episodes starting on Monday, July 20th. Here is a little spoiler about what we can expect from their first show back. On Monday, July 20, catch up on the latest drama surrounding the Forrester family. Katie (Heather Tom) fills in Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) on how Quinn (Rena Sofer) sabotaged Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge’s (Thorsten Kaye) reunion party. Then, Zoe (Kiara Barnes) and Carter discuss her whirlwind romance with Thomas (Matthew Atkinson), how he was exposed for his manipulations and lies at their wedding, and how Hope (Annika Noelle) and Liam (Scott Clifton) were able to overcome everything and reunite. Finally, Zoe and Carter learn about Sally’s (Courtney Hope) illness and what Wyatt (Darin Brooks) and Flo (Katrina Bowden) did when they found out.
My hat is off to them. The Soap Opera is getting new shows on the air before any of the other scripted soaps get back into the production. Both The Young and the Restless and General Hospital have had their start dates pushed back, while Days of Our Lives is taking the summer off.
I have never watched B&B, even though an HS alum is on it, but I am going to check it out to see how they handle working during the COVID-19 era. Will you be tuning in?
