Shaw revealed Ross Barton will have quite the unexpected fling, one that’s going to cause a fair bit of drama with Gabby Thomas, who the soap has been setting him up with recently.<\/p>\n

“We know he loves an older woman, so there’s going to be a little dalliance between Ross and Laurel!” Shaw revealed.<\/p>\n

“But what we’re also seeing is Gabby beginning to get a little bit smitten with Ross.<\/p>\n

“So we’ll see how she reacts when she finds out that the other woman in Ross’ life is her stepmother!”<\/p>\n
