Members j swift Posted July 10, 2023 Members Share Posted July 10, 2023 I wonder if this means we'll see less of Sloan in the future (which would be a shame because she was growing on me).

Members j swift Posted July 11, 2023 Members Share Posted July 11, 2023 This inspired me to do a quick Google search, prior to Senior Del Vacchio, whose family owns the largest manufacturer and licensures of sunglasses in the world, she was engaged to Kaan Gunay, the billionaire owner of the Firefly ad agency, Milutin Gatsby, a billionaire film producer, James Packer, the billionaire Australian media owner and former flame of Mariah Carey, Logan Paul, and Ed Westwick. So, 4/6 of her engagements were to billionaires. And she was married at 17 to her baby's father. Thus, she has seven diamond engagement rings, one for every day of the week. But, considering her history of serial monogamy, I'd hold off on buying her a wedding gift just yet... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members j swift Posted July 21, 2023 Members Share Posted July 21, 2023 Today, I learned/remembered that Nicole's father was Paul Mendez and her mother was Fay Walker, which begs the question of why does Nicole use her mother's maiden name? And even if there's some specific reason for that, why would Brandon use the last name Walker? Is this a classic case of soaps de-Latino-izing a family? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted July 21, 2023 Members Share Posted July 21, 2023 Not really. Nicole's dad was abusive and beat Faye and the children. He also sold Nicole into porn and raped Jan Spears. Abe helped send him to jail. Faye was basically a single mom and it makes sense the children used that name. I also believe the family was trying to hide from him at different points in time. I actually think they made Paul Latino after the Walker family was thought out because of Matt Cedeno's casting to explain the reason Brandon looked more ethnic than his sisters. So, I don't think it was a case of white washing necessarily, but more the kids didn't want anything to do with an evil guy. But that's just my take and other people could absolutely see it differently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members j swift Posted July 21, 2023 Members Share Posted July 21, 2023 Agreed. I would also imagine that they created Nicole and her sister before they concocted her backstory. Because, it would be unusual for a child born in the 1970s to take on their mother's surname, assuming that Faye and Paul were married at the time of Nicole's birth. I would've assumed it was Nicole's "stage name" from her time as a model, but my question arose from the fact that her siblings all share the same last name. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted July 21, 2023 Members Share Posted July 21, 2023 Definitely. I think the father backstory was always there as far as the fact he was a bad guy. Nicole was always vague and shady about the dad and her upbringing. She was very embarrassed by Faye being a waitress as well. Taylor first appeared with an entirely different last name (Raines) and I have no idea why. I don't think it was ever an idea to make Paul Latino until Days had to clumsily handle clearly Hispanic Cedeno and how he might be Abe or Paul's son, which is a whole other issue lol. The Walker/Mendez backstory has always been a little weird. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dc11786 Posted July 24, 2023 Members Share Posted July 24, 2023 Raines or Walker was originally Faye's maiden name. Nicole was a social climber so I think she might have changed her name to distance herself from her working class roots. Original Taylor was a cleaning lady in the building where Eric Brady was handling all his photography. I believe Sally Sussman Morina created Taylor and Nicole, while Fay, Brandon, and Paul came later under Tom Langan, but I might be wrong on some of that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
