John McCook’s Real-Life Love Story: Meet His Wife Laurette Spang
While The Bold and the Beautiful fans know John McCook as the iconic Eric Forrester — often tangled in onscreen romances with characters like Donna — in real life, his heart belongs to one woman: Laurette Spang.
Married since 1980, John and Laurette have built a beautiful life together, raising three children and standing by each other through the highs and lows of showbiz. Laurette, a former actress best known for her role on Battlestar Galactica, stepped away from Hollywood in 1984 to focus on her family.
Their love story is one of longevity, devotion, and quiet strength — a refreshing contrast to the drama of daytime TV. Over the past three decades, as John brought Eric Forrester to life and earned numerous award nominations, Laurette has been his steadfast support system behind the scenes.
No, it’s not Donna, Brooke, or any of his TV wives — this is the woman who holds his heart in real life.
What a stunning couple — graceful, grounded, and full of love. May they continue to be blessed for many more years to come. 💕
