It sounds like the kiss was better than what the photographer managed to capture.

American soap star Andrea Evans has fought and won a secret battle with cancer.
The One Life to Live actress, 54, reveals she found a lump in her breast earlier this year and immediately underwent treatment to remove the tumour.
She tells People magazine, "In April I had been diagnosed with stage one breast cancer. I kept it private, but now I'm cancer-free."
And she admits it was her own campaign work to raise awareness about the disease which "saved" her own life.
She adds, "I did monthly (mammogram) exams, but I missed it. For years I stood on podiums as an ambassador for City of Hope, telling women to get their mammograms. That advice saved me."
Evans is known for her role as Tina Lord on the long-running TV show. She currently stars on another U.S. soap opera, The Bold and the Beautiful.

The Talk will have to prattle on without Sharon Osbourne, who has been granted permission to go on sabbatical from the CBS daytime show in order to spend more time with her rock star spouse, Ozzie.
“I’ve kept it no secret that I really miss my husband,” Osbourne told AOL TV. “He gets a break [from his tour] at the end of September” — when The Talk returns from summer vacay with fresh episodes — “and so I’ve asked [the show] for a little break so I can be with him.”

Actress Cady McClain just announced her return to the daytime soap All My Children (TV) in the legendary role of Dixie Cooney Martin. As one-half of the super-couple known as Tad and Dixie, Cady won the hearts of viewers throughout the world with her intimate portrayal of a country-girl who stole the heart of the handsome and free-spirited Tad Martin.

Considering how often it’s happened in the last few years, it should be easier to accept every time we learn of another soap opera’s demise. Yet yesterday’s news that ABC will be canceling One Life to Live next year and All My Children in September was a blow to folks who hadn’t even watched in years. It was a double whammy hit in the continued chipping away at daytime. Hard to stomach, especially when many of us grew up with Oltl and AMC. These fictional families felt as if they were our own.

"Tawny has lost her job at the tollbooth back in Furnace Creek and she's lost her trailer, too," says Evans. "She's thinking her daughter is rich and will help her out — and, as always, I assume she's up to no good!" Her return air date is set for December 29.

Despite the shake up at 'One Life to Live,' Andrea's not returning to daytime on that ABC show, but she is coming back to the genre. Watch for Andrea Evans on 'The Young and the Restless.' That's right, she's returning to a show in which she starred from 1983-84, marking a return after 26 years.
According to TV Guide, Evans' visit to 'The Young and the Restless' is a one-day only affair, and that date is May 12, but wouldn't it be great if it could be more than that?

Evans' one-episode gig will air on May 12. [TV Guide]
