In her new role, Havins will portray the young woman who has been in a coma in the soap opera since late 2020. Earlier this year, after the July 19 episode, speculation about Lulu waking up from her coma began to circulate when Lulu’s ex, Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna), and her mother, Laura Collins (Genie Francis), visited her in the hospital.

During the episode, Dante and Laura tell the unconscious Lulu she must wake up because Dante and Lulu’s children need their mother.

Jonathan Jacksonrecently returned as Lulu’s brother, Lucky.
