Season 2 momentum: Vilasuso\u2019s arrival adds to the buzz as Beyond the Gates heads into its next era.<\/p>\n

A Welcome Return<\/p>\n

Soap Opera Digest<\/a> confirmed the news of Vilasuso\u2019s return to soaps. In an official Season 2 promo, the actor who got his start in daytime on CBS\u2019s\u00a0Guiding Light\u00a0appeared with Jen Jacob\u2019s Ashley in a scene taking place at Uptown. That is all the information available at this time, however. There\u2019s no word on who he\u2019s playing on BTG or how his character will first connect with Ashley.<\/p>\n

The Emmy-winning actor\u2019s soap credits also include Days of Our Lives and All My Children. On Y&R, Vilasuso played determined detective Rey Rosales from 2018-2022. Most recently, he has starred as Justin Ramos on the streaming soap\u00a0opera,\u00a0The Bay<\/a>, which also features fellow daytime notables like DAYS\u2019s Mary Beth Evans, Matthew Ashford, and Brandon Beemer, as well as BTG\u2019s Mike Manning.<\/p>\n

Ashley\u2019s Love Interest<\/p>\n

If Vilasuso is playing Ashley\u2019s love interest, then that means her personal life is about to take a big turn. The nurse recently broke off an engagement with firefighter Derek (Ben Gavin). One of the reasons for the breakup had to do with her feelings for Andre (Sean Freeman), who is now married to former supermodel Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley). So this means that Ashley isn\u2019t just moving on from Derek. She is finally moving on from Andre as well.<\/p>\n

Beyond the Gates is about to wrap up its first successful season. Next week, the show marks another milestone when it airs its 200th episode. Vilasuso will be joining the soap in its second season. He\u2019s not the only recent addition. DAYS\u2019 Greg Vaughan<\/a> has already appeared in two episodes of BTG and will return for more. <\/p>\n

Soap Hub will keep you up to date as more information about Vilasuso\u2019s character emerges. Take a look at BTG\u2019s season two promo below. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
