Eileen Davidson is a name that soap opera fans know well.
The actress has been a fan-favorite on daytime television for years.
Through the decades, the actress has appeared as Ashley off and on.
She was also a member of the popular reality TV series “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”
However, one of Davidson’s most memorable roles has been on “Days of Our Lives.”
In fact, the actress had her hands full with many different characters over the years.
Kristen’s life has been dramatic, to say the least.
In addition, Davidson has not only played Kristen but also her wacky doppelganger, Susan Banks.
She returned for another storyline in 2017 before leaving a final time and being replaced with actress Stacy Haiduk.
“I’m not leaving ‘Days’ to go to another show, nor am I retiring.
No, I’m not,” she toldTV Guide Magazine.
“I will definitely work again.
Maybe two weeks or a month from now I’ll be ready.
But there’s another big reason I feel it’s time to leave ‘Days.’
The characters I play there have a very short shelf life,” Davidson continued.
“How can you have Kristen keep doing her shenanigans year after year without it getting old?
How many times can she reunite with Brady before he starts to look like a complete dunce?
However, Davidson didn’t leave the soap on bad terms.
