Taylor Made: He was the lead in Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” music video.
He’s Taken: Married to Melissa Ordway (Abby, Y&R) since September 22, 2012.
Less Than Six Degrees: Escapee, the movie where Gaston first met his future bride, also starred MURPHY BROWN’s Faith Ford (exJulia, ANOTHER WORLD; ex-Muffy, ONE LIFE TO LIVE), who lived “across the road” from his parents in Louisiana.
The Little Dividends: The Gastons have two daughters, Olivia, 7, and Sophie, 5.
Standing On Ceremony: In 2020, when Y&R was still social-distancing on set due to Covid, Gaston stepped into the role of Chance when the character married Abby, played by Gaston’s real-life wife, so they were able to safely kiss for the cameras. “Now we have a second wedding video,” he chuckles.
Play Things: After they first met, Gaston says he found Ordway’s collection of American Girl dolls creepy. “She still buys them and says they’re for the girls, but I know they’re really for her.”
