"Formidable foes: Dr. David Hayward (Vincent Irizarry) and Dr. Alexandra Devane (Finola Hughes)
The battle lines were drawn... long before coming to Pine Valley, when David romanced Alex's pal, Siobahn. A pregnant Siobahn killed herself in the wake of David's rejection and Alex blamed him for the tragedy. David counters that the neurologist is angry because he wasn't interested in her, a claim she hotly denies.
Digest: What were your favorite battle scenes?
Irizarry: I enjoyed the scenes when they started talking about Siobahn in Joe's office. I also liked the scenes at Wildwind when David was trying to enlist Edmund to help support him with the foundation. He said she was holding something over him from the past. She came in and they had this huge fight.
Hughes: I really liked the first set that we did when we really had a go at each other way at the very beginning.
Digest: What's your relationship like in real life?
Irizarry: I like Finola a lot. She's a little neurotic (laughs), but in a playful, endearing way.
Hughes: Did he say I was neurotic? I love that! We've been to the opera together with his wife and my husband. I think he bought us the tickets. I like him very much.
Digest: Do you hold grudges in real life?
Irizarry: When I was a teenager, I lived with the philosophy that if somebody does something to you, you make sure you get them back. I would hold a grudge for two years waiting for the right time.
Hughes: I heard [Soap Opera Digest Executive Editor] Carolyn Hinsey say this once and I think it's very funny. She looked at somebody and said, 'You're dead to me. Dead!' I love that because if people cross you, it's great to have them out of your life. I do that. I totally move on."
