Following their romantic celebration at Brady’s Pub, John plants a big kiss on Marlena’s lips before she admits, “Maybe 5,000 isn’t such a crazy number at all.”
He replies, “Happy 5,000th, doc.”
The epic TV milestone isn’t lost on Hall, who admitted she’s “beyond grateful” for her four decades on Days.
“In a world of endless auditions and occasional acceptance, I have been blessed with continuous work and the embrace of a deeply creative family,” the actress exclusively told E! News. “For over 45 years I have lived an actor’s dream.”
