Amid the gossip, Priscilla and Duffy attended a recent Dallas cast reunion with their partner, Linda Purl. โI hadnโt seen him in a long time, and it was a great reunion.

Duffy has been dating Purl since 2020, three years after losing his ballerina wife, Carlyn Rosser, to cancer. He shared two sons, Padriac and Connor, with his late wife and hardly held back on grieving her in previous interviews. โI know what she would expect of me, and I try and live up to that. I feel close to her all the time; what I miss most is her touch. I still consider myself a married man,โ the Step By Step actor told Closer Weekly.
Priscilla had a swell time working with Duffy as Jenna Wade in six seasons of the โ80s classic drama series Dallas,ย where Duffy played her high school sweetheart, Bobby Ewing. Last December, Duffy shared a similar sentiment, admitting he was starstruck on learning he was to work with โElvisโ Priscilla.โ
โIt was unbelievable,โ he said of their first scene together. โIt was another one of those gifts thatโฆyouโre honored to receive in our business.โ
While filming the 14-season show, Priscilla lost her ex-husband, Elvis. However, she never held back on her true feelings despite their divorce a decade prior. โEvery girl went after himโฆand donโt get me wrong. Iโve never not loved Elvis, like, to this day. He was an amazing human being. He had a big heart, but, unfortunately, he was Elvis Presley, and every woman and every girl went after him,โ she said, referring to the Rock โnโ Roll King’s famously wandering eye.
