| You better be a real man with enough money and power to get this woman everything she wants and then some. Ari is one of my bad ass women who came into our storyline when I watched the movie Boogie Nights. I already had a character named Madelynn, who was portrayed by Leila Arcieri. When I saw the movie and Nicole Parker came onto the screen I thought that perhaps it was Leila. When I researched the actress I decided to make her Maddy's twin sister since they look so much alike. It took awhile for Ari's personality to take shape. I had intended on her being this loving, nurturing kind of woman but instead she turned out to be a vindictive gold digger. In this new world she's not as mean as she once was, but if she EVER finds out that her husband had an affair with her sister Maddy the bitch is back. She's got her sites set on her ex brother in law, Manny. With Niko's wedding to Korina coming up and her twin boys, Cameron and Morgan, grown and out of the house, Ari realizes that it's time to move on with her life and start a new chapter. She just hopes she can start that new chapter with Manny. |
