She captioned one of the photos “BFF while trying to get a postable natural shot that didn’t need to be photoshopped.
“Move your leg left. Pull your top down. Look to the right. Bend. Hold your stomach in. You’re not gonna like this. I can see the arm crepe. Your boobs are crooked. Yank em up. You look angry. So gravity is in play, better than being dead. You look like you’re holding your breath. Act natural. “”
Grahn began her daytime soap career joining One Life to Live as Beverly Wilkes in 1978, from there she became a household name as Julia Wainwright Capwell on the NBC series Santa Barbra. The actress then joined General Hospital as Alexis Davis, where she’s been since 1996. The actress also crossed over to the General Hospital spin-off Port Charles in 2000.
