Let's make this birthday one to remember.

60 years old (Born on January 04, 1965)

Happy Birthday, Rick Hearst! From your unforgettable roles in "Days of Our Lives," to the drama-filled twists on "Guiding Light" and those scandalously charming moments as Whip Jones on "The Bold and The Beautiful," you've kept us glued (and sometimes yelling) at our screens. Seriously—soap operas wouldn't be half as fun without you!

Here's wishing a birthday filled with fewer plot twists than your characters usually endure—but just enough excitement to keep things interesting. May this year bring even more success, laughter, love triangles (on-screen only!), and plenty of cake that’s sweeter than daytime TV revenge plots!
