ALL MY CHILDREN Alum Eva La Rue On Joining Y&R As The Rosales Matriarch
Best known to soap fans for her stints as ALL MY CHILDREN’s Maria Santos (1993-97, 2002-05, 2010, 2011), Eva La Rue will hit Genoa City later this month as Celeste Rosales, mom to Lola and Rey. After wrapping her first week at her new job, the actress called Digest with the inside scoop on her return to daytime.
Soap Opera Digest: Welcome back to daytime! How did this come about?
Eva La Rue: A lot of interesting things have happened in the last few weeks, actually. So, [Y&R] put the fishing line out and said that it was a seven-show arc and they were looking for someone to play the character of Lola’s mom, and I said, “Yeah, that could be really fun! Pop over there and do a story arc.” And then I woke up the next morning to my dad dying.
Digest: Oh, Eva, I’m so sorry.
