Obviously, your character Darla is a favorite. So there's something very moment to moment about her.Īnd you spoke about her vulnerability and that's one of the reasons why I love the show so much. And just kind of trying to figure it out and get through another day. I think as much as people say, 'Oh, I'm so angry at her,' this or that. And she feels everything deeply and she's not afraid to be vulnerable. And I think that people can relate to her. And so I think there's something, I don't know, very real about her. It's like, we all go through ups and downs and peaks and valleys. It's not like, OK, she's this perfect person and she's suddenly fixed now and things are suddenly perfect. And I think that she taps into something. But why do you feel like the audience continues to root for Darla? What is it about her that makes people say, 'OK, we want to give her a second, third, fourth, sometimes fifth chance?'

And a lot of the stuff that just she and Ralph Angel have gone through. Even after the whole paternity mishap and her relapse at one point throughout the show. There's obviously been conflict within the family and Darla, but we still continue to root for her. Just all, the whole range of colors.Īnd you mentioned that Darla has tripped and stumbled and obviously viewers have been on this journey with her and there have been times where the audience has been upset or non-forgiving at points. Almost like I've experienced a whole other life with her and everything. And I just feel so blessed because a lot of times, you'll do a character, a job, and it doesn't really go anywhere. And you just try to do the best you can in the moment that you're in. There's always the next morning, another day. Life is going to happen, but you can always.

And I think that's all you can really do. And she's so strong, and she has such a good heart, and she just never let anything. And it's like a new beginning and she's just really blossomed. You'll make your way.Īnd so I just think it's so beautiful what's happening with her little family and the new life. And I think as long as you keep getting back up, you keep moving forward, keep trying again and trying again. So there's never anything to feel shame about or feel like you missed out on opportunities. You can still have your happily ever after and maybe even be even greater than before. I love her story where she is and sort of that idea that no matter how bad things are or how dark they are, it's not the end of the road for you. When you start the thing you can't even imagine the evolution. BL: I mean, my goodness it's been so incredibly rewarding.
