SOAP OPERA DIGEST
What is it like for Hayden to be
around Finn (Michael Easton)
again? Rebecca Budig muses:
“From my understand-
ing, Hayden is still in
love with Finn, but
he didn’t show up in
Italy when she had
asked him to meet
her there, so on
some level, I
think she feels
slightly jilted.
It’s painful for
her to see him.”
