Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, Susan says that it was tough filming the death of Doug Williams, who was the longtime on-screen husband that was portrayed by her real husband, Bill Hayes.

She said, “It stirred up a lot and that was hard. But the people who are closest to me at this moment in time were there for me standing by. Deidre [Hall, Marlena] was watching [the scenes] in the booth and saying, ‘There’s tears in her eyelashes. I don’t think that’s a good shot.’ So they did another take.”

As far as which one was the most challenging scene to enact, Susan explained, “The hardest moment was going into the room after Doug Williams had passed, and there was a body double in the bed. I was talking to the body double as though it were Billy, who had just gone. Now it was Doug who had just passed. So that was hard.”

That said, Susan aded that she was very pleased by how te soap handled Doug’s death and his funeral.
