Kristin Davis found one of her former co-stars to be cold and competitive.
Kristin Davis was ignored on-set by one of her Melrose Place co-stars.
The 60-year-old actress relished playing Brooke Armstrong on the TV soap in the mid-90s, but she found one unnamed co-star to be cold and competitive.
During an appearance on the Hey Dude… The ’90s Called podcast, Kristin shared: “There were just so many so many people [on set]. And I felt and I have obviously seen all these people since then, and so many of them are so lovely. But at the time … it was competitive.
“I had my friends within like, Marcia Cross and I were close, which was wonderful. But there was one, you know, she wouldn’t speak to me. Like, she wouldn’t speak to me. I never had scenes with her, so it wasn’t an issue. But I say, like, ‘Good morning,’ [and nothing.]
“But I feel like it was a period of time. And then I guarantee you now, 30 years out of it, everyone looks back and it’s like, ‘Oh my god. What an idiot I was.'”
Despite this, Kristin felt like she’d won the lottery when she first joined the TV show.
She said: “Melrose was intimidating in, you know, so many ways, obviously.
“I mean, I grew up … watching all the Dallas and Dynasty and blah blah blah. So it it meant a lot to me to be on there. Obviously, it was just a job also. Like, a certain point, you’re like, ‘I have won the lottery. Like, I have a job. I cannot believe it.'”
Kristin felt particularly fortunate because she was a young actress trying to established herself in the industry at the time.
However, Kristin only appeared in the show for one season.
She said: “You know, it’s amazing, right, from a young actor perspective. And, I mean, as far as I know, I was gonna stay there. Like, I didn’t know that I was only gonna be one season, which I believe was 32 episodes, which is insane to think about now.”
