Deidre Hall has been winning over “Days of Our Lives” fans for decades.
Marlena came to Salem in 1976 as one of Mickey Horton’s (then John Clarke) psychiatrists.
Andrea played Marlena’s twin sister, Samantha, an unemployed actress addicted to drugs.
Samantha terrorized Marlena before she was killed by the Salem Strangler in 1982.
However, when she graduated, she was left with loans that she still needed to pay off.
Deidre Hall assumed the role in 2004 when Hattie resurfaced, and she has portrayed her since.
In an interview withToday, she recalled taking over the role from her sister.
“It was a blast.
I love, love, love Hattie.”
The character has since been written off, last appearing in 2019 when she left town.
