AS THE WORLD TURNS Interview

ATWT's Paolo Seganti (Damian), Van Hansis (Luke) and Jon Hensley (Holden).
— Bleacher & Everard/PGP

Luke, They Are Your Fathers

— By Jennifer Lenhart

Soap Opera Digest: Do you have any plans for Father's Day?
Jon Hensley: This week, I'm going to an event that my son and his classmates are putting together at his school. All the fathers are being surprised. He's 5. So I'm looking forward to it. As is he.
Paolo Seganti: I have a father/daughter dance that I'm looking forward to. My daughter didn't want to because she knew I was in New York working. I said, "Sweetie, you can dress me and I'll be your perfect date. Whatever you want." So she's all excited.
Hensley: Our kids are the same age. He has a girl, 7, and we both have boys who are 4 and 1/2, 5.

Digest: Jon, have you done the father/daughter dance?
Hensley: Yeah, I went to a sock hop a couple of months ago.

Damian and Luke
— PGP

Seganti: What is that?
Hensley: A '50s sock hop, where the girls get dressed up in the little dresses with their hair up.
Seganti: So how do you dance? You pick her up? I don't know what I'm doing.
Hensley: We did square dancing, they give the girls hula hoops.... All the fathers wear leather jackets and there are no mothers allowed.
Seganti: Yeah, it's just us!

Holden and Luke
— PGP

Digest: What should Luke get Holden and Damian for Father's Day?
Hensley: He's probably gonna get me a new hair-coloring kit.
Seganti: He could show up with a good-looking girl for Damian.

Digest: Does Damian have a romantic interest yet?
Seganti: I think I saw somebody that I'm interested in, so I'll talk to Chris [Goutman, executive producer] [laughs]. We'll see. Every time he's around, he has to mess some things up and create drama, so I'm sure it'll be more than just Luke to fight over. I should propose a storyline: He should start dating Lucinda. He needs somebody on his side.
Hensley: She's not, though. She's on Holden's side.

Digest: So Lucinda could go after Holden.
Hensley: We've come really close the last couple of months [laughs].
Seganti: Darn, you beat me to it!
