Reflecting on their time together, Stafford took to Instagram, “This Girl! What can I say about you? You walked into this role and immediately made it your own… You jumped in and killed EVERY SINGLE DAY. You are an extraordinary actress.”

Though their characters often clashed, especially during Lanier’s first year and a half on the show, Stafford made it clear their real-life working relationship was nothing but mutual respect and admiration. “What a pleasure for me to work with you. Truly a pleasure. You are a CONSUMMATE professional,” she praised.

Stafford’s tribute wasn’t just about past memories—it was also a confident prediction for Lanier’s future. “I have no doubt we will be seeing you on the screen sooner than later… I completely believe in you.” She concluded with warmth and affection, saying, “Go out there and soar, you gorgeous girl. I absolutely 100% know you will.”

Good luck, Allison, in all your future endeavors.
