Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, Kate said that working with soap legend Eva La Rue has been nothing short of a dream come true. She told the publication, “I had heard that she was coming — someone said, ‘Oh, you’re working with Eva,’ and I said, ‘Oh, is that who is playing Blaze’s mom?’ And they said, ‘Yes, we love her! She was on ALL MY CHILDREN [as Maria].’ And then, wow, she just came in like such a freaking pro. She was so good.”

Kate continued, “ It was such a funny first introduction for our characters — it was written so well and it was so tense and uncomfortable, which was so fun for us. Right away, we were doing these funny one-liners back and forth [between scenes]. Like, Blaze said something like, ‘Kristina is more than my friend, she’s my partner,’ and then they’d call, ‘Cut!’ and Eva and I would look and each other and we’d be like, ‘She means writing partner,’ or she’d be like, ‘Yeah, yeah, she means producing partner, right?’ We were just dying laughing. She catches me in her daughter’s bed in her first scene, which is so awkward, and she walked in and has a sort of [mortified] look on her face, and I was like [adopts childlike voice], ‘Mommy!’ We were just being very silly, and then [when the cameras started rolling] she would snap in it and be totally in it.”
