20 years ago today…

7th heaven kids

20 years ago today, the world met the Camdens and my life was changed forever. I was given a gift, it was more than a dream come true, it changed my life in the most magical way. I was given a second family, I was given a true love for a character that I had the pleasure of going through life with.  I am and always will be honored to have been chosen to play Lucy Camden, it was my dream job on my dream show. To say I have been blessed is an understatement, I got to do what I love, playing a character I love, with the people I love, and live a life bigger than I ever thought possible. Thank you Brenda Hampton for believing in me to play your beloved Lucy. Thank you to my cast for always being my rock, and the biggest thank you of all to the fans that went on this incredible journey with us and allowed us into your home for over 11 years. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for giving me more than I can ever explain. I LOVE YOU ALL!

Love-

Bev

AKA LUCY 🙂

    I own the entire series on DVD and even still watch the re-runs on TV. 7th Heaven will forever be one of my favorite TV series. I watched from day one up until the very end. It is the only show that I can recall that kept the entire original cast from beginning to end. I loved and still love it so much.

    I loved you also in 7th Heaven. I laughed and cried during different episodes. I’m sure you know which ones I am talking about. It would be neat if there could be a reunion for 7th Heaven. That would be cool. Much love, Maria

    Hi Bev!! I was only 1 when 7th Heaven premiered but started watching reruns when I was about 7. Thank YOU for playing a character so many of us looked up to and still look up to, to this day. I learned so much about life from the Camden’s. 7th Heaven helped me get through some tough times as a kid and helped make my childhood a little bit brighter. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to you and the rest of your incredible cast and crew. And to the wonderful Brenda Hampton for creating this wonderful show that brought me so much joy as a child and continues to bring me joy at the age of 21. I love you all!!!! Happy 20th Anniversary 7th Heaven!!!! ♥♥♥♥♥ xoxo

    Hi Beverley!

    I can’t say enough how much I loved 7th Heaven! It was one of my favorite shows growing up. I loved everything about it. Each character was so likable and relatable – I loved how it dealt with real life issues, yet always tried to uplift somehow in the end – I’m almost 29 years old and now have a 5 year old son. We watch reruns on UP! I wish TV still had positive shows and messages like 7th Heaven did. Thank you for continuing to embrace Lucy Camden. Not everybody does and a lot of actors try to stray from what was one of their biggest breaks. I wonder what Lucy, Kevin + Savannah would be up to now. I’d love a sequel with you + Kevin as the parents and your kids the ones learning the lessons.

Sometimes life experiences change you, but to ever Sometimes life experiences change you, but to everyone else you look the same. But you are not, you are different. It’s hard to put into words and hard to explain, but there is a shift! A recalibration of sorts, that changes your makeup forever. I am grateful for these seismic changes though scary because in the long run they make me better! #wiser #tougher #stronger #thisisme #unfiltered #changed #raw #mondaymotivation Anyone else feel the change?
