Zeman revealed that she’s received several comments from used-to-be married women in their 40s who are now back to dating. She explained, “Love never ends, and they want to see that potential. There’s an opportunity there for our writers — and I would love to play that! Get Bobbie on a dating app. I could tell you some stories from my real life, because I’m single. Oh, my gosh! The writers could go crazy with this.”

Although she’s ecstatic at the idea of her character getting on a dating app, she’s also not leaving Scott out of the picture.

“They have always had that attraction and sexual spark,” she maintained. “I think they could make it work.” Whether her alter ego finally gets the new romance she deserves, it’ll all depend on the show’s writers.
