Soap Opera Stars Who Are Seriously Undervalued

Super couples come and go, but it’s the long-term duos that keep soap opera fans loyal to their shows. Whether they have a roller coaster of a relationship that has seen many breakups, or they manage to stay together through thick and thin, one thing these romances must have on a constant basis is chemistry. Below are 12 long-term soap opera couples that never lost their chemistry.

12. Phyllis Summers and Jack Abbott – Young and the Restless

Sure, they aren’t together right now, but these “friends” who were a former couple have been spending a lot of time together as of late. When they hang out, despite their platonic relationship, there still seems to be that spark there. It’s only a matter of time before Red and Jack re-connect, and while Phyllis’ wandering eye has always been this couple’s demise, Jack has always been willing to take her back. That’s because of his boundless love for her.
