Melissa Reeves recently marked 40 years since she first joined the cast of Days of Our Lives as Jennifer Horton Deveraux, but that wasn’t the only significant milestone she celebrated this year. Back in March, she and her husband, Scott Reeves (Steven Webber, General Hospital et al.), toasted 35 years of marriage.
“I met him on Days [of Our Lives],” Melissa tells Swooon of their first encounter in 1988, when she was three years into her run and Scott was cast as Jake Hogansen. “The day I was supposed to work with him, he got violently ill with the flu.”
