Guiding Light - MESSAGE BOARDS

Ok Alan and Reva used to be married right? Did they love each other? My point basically is...how did the 'war' between them start?

I'm not real sure when they were married. Nobody has commented back to you, so I thought I would try. I am wondering if it was after Reva got her memory back, after she had come back to town from making a new life with a new name in St. Cristabel and was married to Richard Winslow, and her name was Princess Katherine, I think. Sometime in between when she came back to Springfield after that, I think she was married to Alan. It seems that after Alan she married Buzz Cooper. That's when she first lived in the house or cottage or whatever it was, with the spiral staircase. I could be totally off. I think I suffer from Old-Heimers a little bit. I can't remember everything that went on. Obviously, she and Alan weren't too happy. I don't think they were married very long.

It is mentioned on her page in the Cast List of this site. I vaguely remember when it happend. As far as I can remember it was a real relationship, it wasn't like a blackmail situation or anything like that. There were real feelings.

I can't remember all of the s/l.but i'm sure it had nothing to do with love.They both have always hated each other.Thats what i remember anyway.I been watching over 35 years and i don't think Reva has ever loved Alan

Thanks for trying everyone!

Alan and Reva became close when he hired her to break up Alex and HB. Even though Alan was still in love with Vanessa, he had a strong pull towards Reva and her zest for life. He found out the truth about Marah's father (everyone thought it was Kyle and not Josh) but kept the info to himself because he didn't want to lose Reva to Josh again. Reva stayed with Alan but his first love was business. Later, he proposed to Vanessa (I can't remember if she accepted or not). Reva pretended to understand but secretly was ready to take Alan for all he had! Meanwhile, the truth about Marah's father was about to come out. Reva was standing on a bridge taking pic's when she saw Sonni and Will (Josh was with Sonni at the time) kissing. Reva didn't have the heart to tell Josh but she warned him about Sonni. Later, Reva saw Josh accidently fall into freezing water. She jumped in to save him. Alan saw all of this and jumped in to save Reva. While Reva was in the hospital, she almost died (Sonni almost killed her in the hospital). All of this made Alan realize that he actually LOVED Reva. While Reva was somewhat out of it, Alan brought in a Judge to marry them. Reva thought she was marrying Josh! They were married but later, when Reva realized she married Alan, she had the marriage annulled. That pretty much ended their friendship, especially when Reva found out that Alan lied to her about Marah's father!
I hope this helps. I know there is a lot of info and possible could be very confusing, but it's the best I could do.

Does anyone know who they killed, or what their secret is? i missed a couple of shows and they happened to be during that whole episode, help anyone?
