At the 1998 Soap Opera Digest Awards, Beth Ehlers (Harley) and Grant Aleksander (Phillip) take home the fan-voted award for 'Favorite New Couple'. "PHarley" were the big thing long before Gus came into the picture.
Guiding Lights theme was the perfect music to play when winning & Beth being carried off. Such a good show & I miss Beth Ehlers energy. I know she doesn’t act anymore but I wish she did.
Guiding Light, too, got the shaft in the recognition department. The ABC soaps, Days and Y&R were always at the top of the totem pole. So any scraps GL got were well deserved. Grant and Beth were great in scenes together years before they were a couple.
