In an exclusive interview with Soap Opera Digest, Shen expressed his enthusiasm for the reunion, emphasizing the significance of the moment for both the characters and the audience. “Given the rich history between Brad and Britt, and how we left off on such a high point three years ago, I was eager to explore how their reunion would unfold,” he explained.
