During a conversation with TV Insider, the actress stated that Taylor is well aware that she is risking so much by keeping this romance going, but she and Deacon “have had this underlying pull to one another that has been physical in addition to emotional,” which they really need to explore despite the risks.
The undeniable fact that Taylor’s daughter is strictly against this makes this example much more layered. Rebecca mused that Taylor has been moralistic but is finding it hard to fight her feelings. “She understands the danger that she puts her family in and might see all sides,” but her heart just wants Deacon.
The soap star added that she knew this may be a slow-burning story with a whole lot of conflict, and it has been nice to play the emotions. Rebecca added that Taylor and Deacon have only flirted during all these years of knowing one another. And that makes this an unexplored territory within the soap opera.
The 52-year-old mused, “The solid is so small, and you find yourself intersecting with people multiple times, so I assumed that was recent and interesting and exciting.” As for the fallout, the actress stated that Taylor, deep down, wants Sheila to know the sentiments she and Deacon have grown to have recently.
“Sheila has shown signs of sanity along with her, but in addition signs that she’s not so together either,” which is why, despite the hope, Taylor should fear for her life when Sheila finds out, and it’s about to occur very soon. Rebecca is aware that it’s not a straightforward path for Taylor and Deacon to be together.
“I believe that is more of a moment to be together, where they may be alone without the opportunity of someone seeing them. It’s dangerous, but it surely’s only a risk they’re each willing to take,” she concluded concerning the secret rendezvous and the fun of being together away from anyone else interrupting them.
