Susan Seaforth Hayes has been a staple on “Days of Our Lives” for decades.
Of course, Doug and Julie’s relationship is a reflection of Susan and Bill’s real-life romance.
For her part, Susan has gushed over her time on the sudser.
“‘DAYS’ has given me friends all over the world and a continued enthusiasm for life.
“Julie has inherited some of the mantel of Alice.
She is still a passionate character.
It’s fun to play,” she said.
“The difficult ones have come more recently,” she confessed.
“As our characters have matured a lot, our health is always in jeopardy.”
Susan went on to explain that there was a scene where Doug was thought to be dead.
“They had him laid out in the Horton living room in a coffin.
It was absolutely terrible for me.”
