Why does Roger call Blake “Chrissy”?
While married to Ed, Holly had an affair with Roger and became pregnant. The baby, Christina, was born prematurely and was Roger’s biological child (even though Ed and Holly tried to raise her as their own). After much drama (see Kent’s history about Roger/Holly/Ed), Roger was presumed dead, and Holly and Christina moved to Europe. Several years later, Blake Lindsey arrived in Springfield and no one realized who she was. She worked for Alan Spaulding at Spaulding Enterprises as a tough-as-nails PR person. She also got involved with Ed’s cousin Johnny Bauer who eventually figured out she was really “Christina Thorpe.” By that time, everyone in town had gotten to know her as Blake.
