In “The Fires of Love” on TF1, Abby and Devon gave in to temptation … but were surprised in full action and Amanda! For Allociné, Melissa Ordway comments on this event which risks having heavy consequences in Genoa City.
Abby and Devon have faulted in the fires of love on TF1 … The best friends in the world who share a child have just been surprised by luck and Amanda under the duvet! This new scandal will still make significant eddies in Genoa City …
Exclusively for Allociné, Melissa Ordway (who embodies the young woman) makes revelations about the continuation of the intrigue of the American American soap (of which a star has just announced his departure!).
Allociné: in “The fires of love,” what is wrong in Abby's marriage and luck?
Melissa Ordway: I think Abby hoped that when luck [Conner Floyd, qui avait répondu à nos questions à son arrivée dans les épisodes en France, ndlr] would come back from the front, their family life would be perfect, with this son whom she always dreamed of having. She believed that he was going to slip perfectly into this dynamic and that things were going to resume as before his departure …
However, he has gone through a lot of trials on his side. Abby mourns this life she had before with luck. She is unhappy that her life is no longer as she was. And we must admit that Abby also needs a lot of attention and love … (laughs)
Finally, as a mother, she feels the distance between luck and Dominic. It bothers her because he does not weave links with their child as she wanted. In short, Abby feels that something is wrong with their couple, without realizing that she also put a lot of pressure on him when he had things to settle. Their dysfunction relationship …
What does Abby feel about this deception?
It's very hard. Abby and Devon [Bryton James, ndlr] have been best friends for a long time. He pays her the attention that luck does not give him to this precise moment. It is not an excuse to justify what she did … but it was not at all a good time for Abby!
If she could start again, I think she wouldn't do that, honestly. Admittedly, everything happens for a reason in life but she regrets this decision in my opinion because she really likes luck. I don't think she would have got there if everything was fine with each other.
What are Abby's real feelings in Devon?
Abby has always had feelings towards Devon. I think their feelings of best friends have changed when they had their son: she saw how wonderful Devon is with the baby, they have a connection. He intervened and helped her every moment.
When she wanted a restaurant, he was there. When she wanted a baby, he was there. When she had problems in her marriage, he was there. Her feelings developed even if she realized that they were romantic feelings. She fell in love with Devon unconsciously.
In “Les Fires de l'amour”, what does Abby experience when Devon and she are surprised in full antics by luck and Amanda?
Abby is shocked, like all the others … Even today, I still find it hard to believe that they were caught! I must entrust to you that behind the scenes, at the time when we turned this intrigue, I could not stop laughing! (laughs) When they arrive, I said to myself: 'Oh my God ! How does someone react at that time? '
Abby also feels horrible compared to Amanda [Mishael Morgan, qui s’était également confiée à AlloCiné, ndlr] who has always helped her. She does not know what to do, nor how to react. His first reflex is nevertheless to want to arrange everything with luck. She runs after him and tries to improve the situation … But what to do after such an event? It is impossible to pick up the pieces.
What does Devon have lucky?
Devon and Abby know everything about each other, their relationship is based on pure friendship. There is no judgment, they know their qualities and their faults, all that one or the other has done. Neil [Kristoff St. John, ndlr]Devon's adoptive father was Abby's godfather …
Their relationship goes back so long! They share a link that no one can understand apart from both. They really understand each other. Abby likes luck but they don't have this link, it's not as strong at least.
You, Melissa, how did you react by discovering this big connection between Abby and Devon?
I was obviously stunned! I did not believe it because the chief of our writers had told us that it was going to happen … But Bryton and I militates for it to happen for years! We therefore thought that it was actually never going to happen … and when we understood that it was being put in place, I could not believe it until we were turning! We were very excited.
So were you happy?
Very ! I love working with Conner Floyd, it's great! I like Abby and luck together. But I have been playing with Bryton for so long, we are good friends in life. So we were really delighted to have the opportunity to work more.
