“Suzanne gave the most beautiful, thoughtful gifts and she was a person of immense style and glamour in her real life, and I will never forget [that] and I still have them,” Keanan shared (via People).
Lakin said she always admired Somers growing up and watching reruns of Three’s Company.
“Growing up with her and watching her as a woman, as a businesswoman, as someone who was a huge star who had a bright light, who was so gorgeous, who was also so down to Earth and someone I just really admired,” Lakin said. “She was someone that made me think as a young female in Hollywood, you can be kind and you can be generous and you can be successful and all of those things don’t have to be mutually exclusive.”
Lakin continued, “She was so sweet and loving. Her heart was so big, and we really miss her.”
Watson recalled “being able to do the mother-daughter reunion pageant where we tap dance together and sang.”
“That was so amazing,” she added. “Like, the highlight of my career.”
Step by Step was a sitcom created by William Bickley and Michael Warren and developed by Thomas L. Miller and Robert L. Boyett. It ran for six seasons on ABC and a seventh and final season on CBS. The series followed Duffy and Somers, who starred as single parents who married each other and formed a blended family, with each having three children.
