Eileen Davidson on Returning to 'Days of our Lives': "I'm open to anything."

Eileen Davidson

Emmy Winner Eileen Davidson is always in demand. The popular actress currently stars as Ashley Abbott on The Young and the Restless and on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. But would she ever reprise her role of Kristen on Days of our Lives?

She tells Michael Logan from tvinsider, "I’m open to anything. I have extreme amounts of love for Salem and for my character, Kristen, and feel very loyal to that show. But Y&R is my job right now and I wouldn’t ever want to do anything that pissed anyone off."

Davidson also recalls the chemistry she shared with Eric Martsolf (Brady). "Hey, I had a very good thing going with Eric and I never saw that one coming. I could never have predicted it. I didn’t know him, never auditioned with him, but we had fantastic chemistry, so who the hell knows?"

To get Davidson's thoughts on Y&R’s new head writer Sally Sussman, and the real deal about RHOBH, click here for her full interview.
