From the December 19th Soap Opera Update:

SOAPS' SEXIEST COUPLES

"What the world needs now is love, sweet love." In the world of entertainment, where talent beauty and emotions prevail, cupid's arrow often strikes. Here's an inside look at how 18 top celebrity couples keep it sizzling, plus experience daytime's hottest on-screen duos.

Ask many longtime GENERAL HOSPITAL fans, and they'll tell you they still remember that first chance meeting between Frisco (Jack Wagner) and Felicia (then known as Kristina Malandro). At the time, back in 1984, Felicia was dressed as a boy, on a mission to recover a stolen heirloom that just happened to be in Frisco's possession. Little did either actor know at the time, but that script would not only change the history of the soap, it would forever alter the real-life course of both of their lives.
While Felicia and Frisco were turning into a supercouple, Jack and Kristlna were secretly falling in love.
     The couple dated on and off for many years, but were hesitant to go public with their love affair. In 1993, they chartered a Lear jet and flew to Lake Tahoe for their long-awaited nuptials.
     Nearly 16 years later, Jack and Kristina are still very much the young couple that America fell in love with—except they've grown up and now have two sons, Petey, 9, and Harrison, 5, of their own.
     Although they've kept their real-life coupling together, professionally, their lives have taken very different paths. Jack left Port Charles in 1991. He's been back intermittently, but has spent the last few years filming movies-of-the week, starring on primetime soaps like MELROSE PLACE, and currently on Aaron Spelling's new NBC sudser, TITANS. He just recently finished a starring run on the Broadway play "Jekyll & Hyde." However, the 2,000 miles separation between them wasn't a breeze. "We'd speak on the phone two, three times a day, every day," Kristina told the press. Could a return to GH be in the cards for Frisco? Fans certainly hope so!
