General Hospital Star Reena Sofer Celebrates a Second Chance at Love—and a Double Anniversary!
In a world full of plot twists and dramatic farewells, real-life love stories like this one bring heartwarming hope to soap fans everywhere. General Hospital alum Reena Sofer just shared a touching milestone with her longtime love—and fans can’t stop smiling.
On May 18, Reena and her husband Sanford Bookstaver celebrated not one, but two anniversaries—a unique romantic tale that spans over two decades and a beautiful second beginning. The couple first tied the knot 22 years ago, then went their separate ways, only to find their way back to each other. One year ago, they remarried, and now they’re embracing their “second first anniversary” with joy and renewed love.
A Love That Came Full Circle
Reena took to social media to commemorate the occasion with a heartfelt post:
“Happy January 22nd wedding anniversary to the LOL of my life.”
She reflected on their journey—filled with trials, growth, and rediscovery—calling it “beautiful and special.” Her message resonated deeply with fans as she expressed excitement for the future and hinted at a major life change ahead—possibly a big move or a new chapter.
“I wouldn’t want anyone but you, Sanford Bookstaver, by my side. I love you endlessly.”
Friends and Fans Send Their Love
Reena’s sweet tribute didn’t go unnoticed. Members of the soap opera community jumped in to share their congratulations.
Lawrence Saint-Victor (The Bold and the Beautiful’s Carter) sent warm wishes, while Cindy Ambuehl, wife of Don Diamont, left a playful message:
“Happy anniversary, you kids!”
Last year, Reena surprised fans by announcing her remarriage to Sanford, describing their reunion as a “thrilling new adventure.” She revealed that the three years they spent apart were “humbling and heartbreaking,” but also necessary to bring them back together stronger than ever.
What’s Next for Reena and Sanford?
Reena’s followers are now abuzz with curiosity about the “big move” she teased. Could it be career-related? A personal escape? A shared creative project? Whatever lies ahead, one thing is certain: this couple is walking into the future hand-in-hand, with love, laughter, and a deep sense of renewal.
A Love Worth Celebrating
In an industry where scripts change daily and onscreen romances come and go, Reena and Sanford’s story is a reminder that real love can have its own twists, turns, and perfect second chances.
We wish the couple continued happiness—and can’t wait to see where their journey leads next.
