Beloved soap star Deidre Hall tells The National ENQUIRER that she’s amazingly similar to her TV character, Dr. Marlena Evans.
“Marlena is every woman, including myself,” Deidre – who created the role back in 1976 – told The ENQUIRER in an exclusive interview.
“When we first met Marlena, she was establishing herself in her career. Later, we saw her focused on marriage and family. Currently, she is devoted to her work and family. Much like me!”
Viewers love Marlena’s story so much that Deidre’s real-life twin sister, Andrea Hall-Gengler, was hired to play Marlena’s evil twin, Samantha. “Andrea taught special education and had no acting experience or training,” Deidre revealed.
