They say there's no such thing as bad PR, but there is most certainly such a thing as a good PR person -- and The Bold and the Beautiful has one on the way to the canvas. Kelly Kruger has stepped back into her role as Eva, Forrester's international publicist.
Back in September, Kruger took to Instagram to share that she had returned to work for the first time since the birth of her daughter with B&B star Darin Brooks (Wyatt Spencer), but she didn't specify what exactly she was working on.
"I cried the whole drive in but mama is back to work!" she posted along with a photo of herself on the CBS Studios lot. "First time on set since before Everleigh was born. Wow this is hard. Work/life balance. Hormones. Pumping between shots. I really didn't get it until now. There's a reason women have babies and not men. It's def going to be an adjustment.... can't wait to share what I'm working on. You guys are going to love it! Super excited!!"
Considering Kruger is mostly known for her role as The Young and the Restless' Mackenzie Browning, fans weren't sure if perhaps she was returning to Genoa City. However, it has since been announced that the actress will be back on B&B beginning Monday, November 2.
The actress shared the news on Instagram, writing, "Guess who's popping into @boldandbeautifulcbs on Nov 2nd? Eva is making an appearance! Stay tuned.... Maybe Wyatt should be her type after all? What do u guys think?"
She also shared that it's super fun to work with Brooks, teasing, "Perks of working on the same show as the hubs: carpool in together, share a dressing room (w great WiFi clearly), someone to eat lunch with that I don't have to stay 6 feet away from."
As for what else Kruger has been working on since becoming a mother last September, the actress joked earlier this year, "Before getting pregnant I told Darin that all I wanted to do was the darker stuff, to go to those places as an actor -- and then I shot the Hallmark movie [A Very Corgi Christmas last year], and it was the most fun I ever had. We were laughing all the time... I was early in my pregnancy with Everleigh, and everyone was laughing and happy and when I came home I said to Darin that all I want to do was Hallmark movies!"
