Outgoing ABC Daytime President Angela Shapiro sure knows how to make an exit. After years of rumors, the network has now confirmed that Eva LaRue (ex-Maria Santos) will return to the show.
LaRue made her exit from All My Children in the fall of 1997, when she was presumed dead following the crash of a TransGlobal aircraft. Her body was never found.
LaRue did return as a "vision" to husband Edmund the following year, though it was carefully crafted to not refer to Maria as a ghost.
A first airdate for LaRue was not immediately available.
