Supercouples: A Relic From the '80s or Still Alive and Kissing?Not A Patch On Them
While Steve and Kayla were one of many supercouples on DAYS during that time, Evans said there was never any competition between the actors. "Those people were all my friends, and I felt like that period when I was on DAYS was like family," she states. "The show was very Middle America and had real, heartfelt stories. We just tried to do our best work and that's what we focused on."
Supercouple magic doesn't always strike twice, as Evans and Nichols found out when they were later paired up as Katherine Bell and Stefan Cassadine on GENERAL HOSPITAL. "GH never really did anything with it," shrugs Evans. "They could have taken it and gone with it. They did briefly, but I don't think they ever invested in it."
Evans credits Steve and Kayla's on-screen chemistry to her close friendship with Nichols. "We are such good friends and that showed through," she smiles. "Stephen and I just did a photo shoot for Soap Opera Digest and I swear, we were like the old married couple (laughs). We were sitting on the couch, all cozied up, he was reading something, I was doing something. It's like we don't even have to talk to each other. It cracked me up! We've known each other for such a long time and we're so comfortable with each other. So I'm hoping that we work together again, because I always have such a great time!" -- Tonya Lench
