"I just LOVE him and love the fact that he has turned into such a wonderful actor, partner and father. Good for him. The pic with the two of them together just melts my heart. My hubby looks at me like that still and I treasure it because some women wish they could find a good man who will still look at them the same way they did years before."

"If you ask Violet what I do, she'll say she remembers me bowing on stage when I did a show in New York, and so she'll say, 'My mom sometimes will bow on stage and sometimes she gets her hair and makeup done.' It's a great job!"

  1. Sue Says:

    He’s 52!!!!!!!! OMG – just amazing!

  2. Monika Says:

    I used to watch DOOL…I can’t believe “Bo Brady” hasn’t procreated until now. He’s so handsome!

  3. rachael Says:

    her last name is ‘moneymaker’? LOL!

  4. PSB Says:

    It’s crazy that he’s 52, he looks awesome. How exciting for him to finally have a baby! Bo 7 Hope had a baby late in life too :)

  5. Lisa Says:

    Okay, with Sue on the “52?”!?!?!?!?!?!? I had NO idea he was that old. I watch Days and I’m so excited for him! I didn’t know he didn’t already have kids. I just figured he did. (does he have kids?) Wow! Congratulations “Bo Brady”! Haha! :)

  6. Anonymous Says:

    Are you sure he is 52??? if so. OMG

    Sarah’s note: Yes, born in 1955.

  7. Stephany Says:

    Yay for Bo!!! I love him on DOOL.

  8. Jess from Ohio Says:

    52? Wow… I love his as Bo Brady, especially with Hope, they have such great chemistry. Anyways, congrats to him and his wife. I was wondering if/when they would have children.

  9. Roise Says:

    Kelly is a celebrity in her own right (albeit not a very large one, except to her fans like me)…she replaced Gioia Bruno in the platinum-selling trio Expose’, from the late 80s/early 90s. She didn’t perform lead vocals, but she was with the group for two albums, before they were dropped by their record label. She still works with the group in their tours today, doing fill in duties, and has a solo career.

  10. Kerry Says:

    Did Kelly also appear on Days of our Lives? It seems like a I remember her playing Sami’s best friend.

  11. amanda Says:

    If I’m not mistaken I think Kelly made an appearance on an episode and she sung one of her songs. I think it was for a wedding on the show.

  12. KY Says:

    She is not he one who played Sami’s bestfriend. Her name was Mariam something I think. But, when she left the show, she did marry the man that played Bo for a little while. I think his name is Robert Keller or something like that he also played Sam on Another World.

  13. Roise Says:

    She has been on DOOL as a singer. I don’t know the specific episode, but I don’t think she was a regular (I don’t watch the show), but her official sites and MySpace don’t list her as a regular at any point. In 2005, she also wrote, produced and recorded a DOOL Love Song CD, which helped garner an Emmy nom.

  14. FC Says:

    Bo’s having a baby! I always wondered when he and his wife would have a child. And he doesn’t look a day over 40 to me. He looks damn good for his age.

    Best of luck to the both of them! :)

  15. flower girl Says:

    I love Bo. Congrats to him and his wife. His age always amazes me!!

  16. Caroline Says:

    Congrats to Peter and Kelly! I’m so happy for them.

    To answer a few questions:
    *Yes, Peter is 52 (born 1955).
    * No Peter doesn’t have any other kids. This is his first child.
    * Sami’s best friend was called Jamie Caldwell and was played by Miriam Parrish who married Robert Kelker-Kelly who played Bo Brady 1992-95.
    *Kelly Moneymaker’s songs has been played many many times on DAYS (and yes there’s a “Love Songs’s on DAYS CD”).
    Kelly wrote a special song for Bo & Hope. She appeared in ONE episode as a singer Dec 2002.

  17. Liza K. Says:

    CONGRATS PETE AND KELLY

  18. Sydney Says:

    Peter confirmed in SOD that IT’S A GIRL due in late November!

  19. FC Says:

    Aww, a girl? It’s kind of like life imitating art since Bo and Hope recently had a girl on the show. :)

  20. Sydney Says:

    I agree, FC! Peter is having a girl right after Bo and Hope did. And that Kristian has two boys (just like Bo and Hope). Definitely a case of life imitating art.

    I’m so happy for Peter and Kelly!

  21. TracyG Says:

    So happy for Peter and Kelly!!! He seems like he’d make an awesome dad!

    I remember the big “controversy” when Robert Kelker-Kelley married Miriam Parrish. Wasn’t he something like 15-20 years older than she was? Back then, it was a big deal…nowadays, not so much! LOL…

    At any rate, Congrats Peter and Kelly!

  22. branta Says:

    some babys are cute on here

  23. kathy Says:

    Congrats to you Peter & Kelley on the up and coming birth of of your child.

  24. Tanya Says:

    WOW, 52 and still hot. Im very excited for him and his wife. I love that show.

  25. Bosgirl Says:

    I’m so excited and can’t wait to hear what they name this little bundle of joy:):)

  26. carina leveque Says:

    is leaving Days of our Lives. Or, is Bo Brady
    being written out of the script??
    Thank-you.
