There was a SOD podcast late last year or early this year with an interview of Kyle Lowder, at the time when he came back to Days. They discussed his relationship with Ari Z and he described her a a close friend. He said they fell in love too young but that there was zero bad blood between them, and that they made divorce work. He even hangs out at the home she shares with Shawn Christian (ex Daniel) and it sounds like they’re really good friends. He spoke of how SC makes a mean margarita. He only had praise for AZ and SC.
Worth listening to if you have the timel
