How the Stars Celebrated Independence Day!

The 4th of July is synonymous with fireworks, flags, and fun — and stars from The Bold & The Beautiful, Days Of Our Lives, General Hospital, and The Young & The Restless certainly got into the celebratory spirit in honor of America’s birthday!

Some folks watched fireworks with their families, some actors hung out by the pool, and others celebrated birthdays! GH star Maurice Benard (Sonny) and his family had a double reason to celebrate on July 4, as his grandson, Milo, was turning one year old!

Dressed in a patriotic bikini, Eden McCoy (Josslyn, GH) answered the call of the sun and surf.

Tanner Novlan (Finn, B&B) and his family — wife Kayla Ewell (ex-Caitlin), daughter Poppy, and son Jones — took in a magical firework show.

Elizabeth Hendrickson (Chloe, Y&R) and her family celebrated the actress’ July 3 birthday, vacationing at her mom’s beach house, and the 4th of July! “Jojo thinks I’m 25 years old,” she wrote, “and I’m rolling with it.”

“Time to celebrate…independence,” wrote an incognito Josh Kelly (Cody, GH), who also showed off an SUV trunk full of adult beverages and party supplies.

Alison Sweeney (ex-Sami, DAYS) — currently working on her next Hallmark film — took a break to spend some time with her equine friend at the barn. “Happy 4th of July!! 🇺🇸❤️💥”

After letting her dogs run along the water’s edge on the beach, Lauralee Bell (Christine, Y&R) soaked up the rays herself.

Along with her daughter, Sadie, Finola Hughes (Anna, GH) returned home to England for a visit, where they took in the sights of Thames River from the London Eye. “Happy, Happy 4th… 🇺🇸 love from 🇬🇧.”

“The ‘daughters of liberty’… in a high wind! Happy Fourth of July!” quipped Susan Seaforth Hayes (Julie, DAYS), as she and her Days co-star Deidre Hall (Marlena, DAYS) got covered by their party’s festive decorations.

Along with their daughters Olivia and Sophie, Melissa Ordway (Abby, Y&R) and hubby Justin Gaston (ex-Chance, Y&R) celebrated America’s birthday with friends.

Eric Martsolf (Brady, DAYS) and his wife, Lisa, spent the day poolside. “Happy 4th! We’ll be right here,” she wrote, sharing a selfie of the two hanging out in the water. “Stay safe!”

Lisa Yamada (Luna, B&B) and her friend played a good old-fashioned game of poolside beer pong at a July 4th party.
