PRACTICE Pays Off For Jones!

On the heels of taping scenes for her two-episode return to THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL later this month, Ashley Jones (Bridget) has landed a new primetime gig on ABC’s PRIVATE PRACTICE! “I’m so excited! It’s a guest arc that will start filming soon — probably early next week,” Jones tells Soaps In Depth, confessing that she accepted the role sight unseen! “They made an offer, but I don’t know what the part is yet. I haven’t even read the script!”

As for her recurring status at B&B, Jones says she’d love to see Bridget pop up on the show beyond her return on Tuesday, February 28, and Wednesday, February 29. “So far, we’ve always worked out the dates when [executive producer and headwriter Bradley Bell] wants to bring in Bridget,” she reveals. “If and when he’s ready to write more for the character, I’ll probably be here at B&B a little more. I love coming to work here.”
