Linda Gray - A Dallas Star Returns to Soaps

The sparkling gowns and shocking twists of the iconic 1978-91 soap Dallas made Linda Gray - who played wife Sue Ellen Ewing to Larry Hagman’s J.R. - so famous she could barely go shopping. “My kids wouldn’t even go to the market with me,” says the Santa Monica native, now 78. “Every five feet people would stop you and go, ‘Who shot J.R.?” Four decades later, after stints on Melrose Place and The Bold and the Beautiful, the divorced mom of two appears on the new soap Hilton Head Island. Her character “is a badass,” she says. “She’s more J.R. than Sue Elle. I was totally intrigued.”
