Even though Fiona is responsible for the hit and run that nearly killed Sarah, Serena says that she’s having so much fun playing the character in front of the camera. She even calls the experience one of the best she’s ever had to far.

The actress put it this way, “Fiona, in spite of all her failings, is in a strange sort of way — even though she lies and covers things up — authentically herself.”

“There are flashes of authenticity, which I just thought was so great, because alcoholics, people with mental illness, and people with those kind of problems, are not all bad. They’re ill. It’s very easy to villainize somebody.”

Serena also opened up about Serena and her drinking and that not all is what it seems like in front of the cameras.

The actress put it this way, “It’s really important to understand that people who drink a lot have the disease of alcoholism. They are not bad people trying to get good. They’re sick people trying to get better, and it’s not a straight line. It’s up and down.”

“Very few people get sober. A lot of people relapse. It’s part of the process. I love the bits where they made Fiona very human and likable and funny, because everybody has some of everything in them.”

The actress also admitted that Fiona is so much more than just a woman who is dealing with her alocholism.

She said, “Yes, although I would stick my neck out and say that most of us have addictions to various things, even if it’s just your telephone. Guilty! I’m actually trying quite hard not to use my phone all the time, because it irritates me.”

Of course, fans will have to tune in each and every day to find out what will happen next. Days of Our Lives airs weekdays on the Peacock streaming network.
