We wish him the very best!"

So it worked out that it was mutual [with Scott].

I’m very pleased with how that story line worked out for him.

It allowed us to give Dougray some really rich stuff toward the end."

As Dries alluded to, Jacob isn’t the only Kane who departed the show this season.

(Never a dull moment in the Kane family!)

“She is literally the last person there is for her family.

Likewise for Alice, Mary is the last one there is.

It’ll make a very fun dynamic.”
