[edit] Character biography

Growing up in Los Angeles, Samantha was a friend of the Forresters and once had a major crush on Ridge (Ronn Moss). She was sent away to New York at seventeen after becoming pregnant, and when her baby was born, Sam's mother Priscilla (Linda Gray) told her that her child was stillborn. She tried to write to Hector (Lorenzo Lamas), the baby's father, at the 'new address' her mother provided her with, only to have her letters returned. She never forgot Hector, but tried to move on with her life. She became a well-known interior designer, and returned to LA years later with her little dog Pucci. After the death of Pucci, Sam confessed the story about her baby to her friend Bridget (then played by Emily Harrison, now Ashley Jones). When she ran into Hector in LA, it brought back all the memories, and she didn't understand why Hector was so angry with her, until the two finally talked and she realized that her mother had lied about her baby being dead and had given her to Hector, saying that Sam didn't want her. Sam and Hector reunited and got engaged, but they soon realized that they weren't compatible because of Sam's love for the finer things in life, and Hector's inability to give them to her. Sam also wanted to give Priscilla another chance, while Hector was far less forgiving. Samantha left LA and returned to New York with her mother. Sam's daughter Caitlin (Kayla Ewell) later joined her.
