Alfonso also talked about a scene that would have been if things had penned out how it was planned. “I’m sad that I did not get the opportunity to do the storyline that Ron (Carlivati, head writer) had planned. It was great; we returned to Salem to reunite with our families and I would have had father/daughter scenes with Billy. What Ron had written was beautiful and emotional and it was a fantastic story. I was 100 percent for it and the fans would have loved it.”

In regards to the fans hopeful for a Bo and Hope reunion, Alfonso said, “What I will say is don’t give up hope.”

Kristian Alfonso joins the growing list of returnees for Doug’s memorial and the historic 15,000th episode that is to come later this year.
