Have mercy! A new pic of Days of our Lives' Jen Lilley (Theresa Donovan) and The Young and the Restless' Lachlan Buchanan (ex-Kyle Abbott) on set at Fuller House has some speculating the pair has joined the classic sitcom revival.
Whatever happened to predictability? You may get it with the milkman, the paperboy, and evening TV. But with soap stars? Never!
Right in the midst of the daytime community mourning the news that Jen Lilley will soon be exiting the role of Days of our Lives' Theresa Donovan comes a rumor that both she and The Young and the Restless alum Lachlan Buchanan (ex-Kyle Abbott) may have joined Fuller House, the Netflix spinoff of the classic family sitcom Full House.
Several photos of the daytime actors sitting on the iconic Full House blue and white couch and posing with series' stars like Jodie Sweetin have many fans believing that perhaps the two have joined John Brotherton (ex-Jared Banks, One Life to Live), Eva LaRue (ex-Maria Santos, All My Children), and John Stamos (ex-Blackie, General Hospital) on the beloved show.

As Lilley pointed out in her official statement about her DAYS departure, she hopes to focus on additional projects the NBC soap's demanding schedule didn't allow. Meanwhile, Buchanan was dropped to recurring status at Y&R in November of 2015 and fully dropped out of the role in March.
At this time, the rumor that Lilley and/or Buchanan have joined Fuller House has yet to be confirmed by the show's reps or the actors themselves. But considering that Lilley's Instagram photo caption thanks photographer Brad Everett Young for the visit, it's likely that's all it was -- a simple visit to the set. But stay tuned!
In related, but unsoapy news, the real-life house used in the Full House and Fuller House exterior shots is for sale. At just about 3,000 square feet, the San Francisco home can be yours for the asking price of $4.15 million.
