This Woman Married a ‘Days of Our Lives’ Actor – He Still Calls Her a Diva after 24 Years of Marriage

  • Peter Reckell, AKA Bo Brady from “Days of Our Lives,” has been married for 24 years to his “gorgeous” wife after his marriage to his soap opera co-star failed.
  • He calls his wife a diva. She has a career in show business, like her husband.
  • The couple is proud parents of one child and revealed why they won’t have more children.

Peter Reckell is most famous for playing Bo Brady in the popular TV soap opera “Days of Our Lives.” However, besides being a committed actor, Reckell is a devoted husband and a doting father. Reckell has been happily married for an impressive 24 years.

After 23 years on “Days of Our Lives,” Reckell left the show after his character died a dramatic death in the arms of his wife, Hope Williams Brady. Reckell decided to take his leave in 2015 after finding widespread fame and financial security through the show. A few years later, his on-screen wife, Kristian Alfonso, also left.

Interestingly, this wasn’t the first time Reckell left the show, although it seems to be the last. In 1987, the actor announced he would be leaving the show to take a break from the persistent filming schedule. He spent the next few years on the show “Knots Landing,” but returned to “Days of Our Lives” a short while later.

Fans reacted to Moneymaker’s post, commenting on how wonderful they looked together.

Reckell left the show again in 1992, saying he was “looking for new things.” He spent the next few years shooting a low-budget film in Russia titled “Broken Bridges” and worked in musical theatre. Eventually, he decided to return to “Days of Our Lives” once again in 1995, citing a need to pay his bills as the reason.
