Interview: Kevin Spirtas aka Dr. Craig Wesley Of "Day Of Our Lives"

Author: Randy Slovacek May 2, 2022 Duration: 47:22
Today I’m talking to Emmy Award winner Kevin Spirtas - who has spent years, among many other roles, playing Dr. Craig Wesley on the iconic daytime drama "Days Of Our Lives." Kevin recently returned to "Days" for a storyline that surprised many fans and, in many ways, is groundbreaking in nature. As hard core fans know by now, Dr. Craig Wesley, after many years of being married - in a heterosexual relationship - comes out as gay. And ALL kinds of drama ensues. I think the storyline itself is important because I don’t believe a longtime character on a daytime drama has ever come out in mid-life like Kevin’s character does here. Not only does Dr. Craig Wesley come out, but along the journey so far we meet the man he’s fallen in love with, and … well, so much more. Hit the play button to hear Kevin and I chat about all the drama in Salem on "Days of Our Lives." I want to remind folks you can catch up on this entire season of "Days of Our Lives" for free on PeacockTV.com. So make sure you tune in this week to see the how, whys and wheres Dr. Craig Wesley lands on his journey.
