26 Nov
Summary
- Erika Slezak's husband never watched 'One Life to Live' to avoid seeing her kiss other actors.
- Slezak joined 'General Hospital' this fall, a show her husband actively watches.
- She played Ronnie Bard, surprising herself with scenes alongside Maurice Bernard's Sonny Corinthos.
Daytime television icon Erika Slezak, best known for her 40-year role as Victoria "Viki" Lord on 'One Life to Live,' shared a unique reason her husband, Brian Davies, never watched her iconic series: he didn't want to see her kiss her on-screen husbands. Davies, married to Slezak since 1978, would simply ask about her day upon her return from filming.
This past fall, Slezak made a return to daytime soaps with a guest role on 'General Hospital,' a program her husband consistently watches. He is particularly fond of the character Sonny Corinthos, played by Maurice Bernard. Slezak found herself unexpectedly filming scenes with Bernard as Ronnie Bard, the secret sister of Monica Quartermaine, and appreciated the opportunity to work with him.
Slezak expressed her delight in interacting with major 'General Hospital' characters and reconnecting with 'One Life to Live' co-stars. Both she and the 'General Hospital' producers are open to Ronnie Bard potentially returning to the show, leaving the door open for future storylines.
