Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, Finola opened up about how the WSB is cutting the cord on its relationship with Anna over her one-time ties to DVX. Finola put it this way, “For Anna, it’s a gut punch. It comes out left field when she suddenly gets arrested. It was pretty quick and pretty cold! I think it’s really interesting and kind of sad, this twist. I think Anna says — or maybe I imagined her saying it because it’s what I was thinking, perhaps, that Anna would be feeling — that [her high standing in the WSB] this is everything she’s ever worked toward.”

Finola added that with everything Anna has done in the past, this was the last thing that she certainly expected to see happen. She said, “And she has just succeeded in helping to bring somebody down that was going to be extremely damaging to the world, and now, she is being used as a way for the WSB to have a clean slate. They’re using Anna as a way to say, ‘We are turning out backs on our old methodology, we are going to say it never happened and we’re going to lay all of the responsibility for that kind of conduct on Anna Devane. We’re going to distance ourselves from her and basically cancel her!’”

Now, as far as Anna’s past coming back to haunt her, Finola explained, “I think it’s an interesting part of her history and I think there’s a lot of stuff to be mined there and for her to face some of that stuff. What does that look like within her close circle of friends when she’s annihilated in the press? What does that look like not only for her, but for other people who love her. I think it’s good!”
