Burnett left the soap after a dramatic Christmas storyline that featured the return of Hunter. Speaking ahead of that storyline, which featured Olivia sleeping with Hunter, the brother of her then-fiancé Prince, Burnett said the episode was a big shoot.
"Filming-wise, it was a big shoot, we all put a lot of time and effort into it… I am looking forward to the audience seeing all the dramatic twists and turns that the writers have in store."
