Q&A with Constance Marie

Question: As an actress of Switched at Birth, are there any characteristics that you like about Regina or any other character? 
Constance Marie: I love that the roles of the mothers are strong but still have a sense of humor and love their children so much but make many mistakes. They're very human.

 

Question: Can you give a few small hints to what happens with Bay and Emmett? 
Constance Marie: Ooo... I could, but Lizzy Weiss would kill me.

 

Question: How do you feel about marrying Angelo? 
Constance Marie: I, Constance, felt very pretty in that wedding dress! It was a fun first day of work.

 

Question: I love Mondays --- it's Switched at Birth AND #MeatlessMonday. Thank you so much for introducing me to the idea of giving up meat at least one day a week. How long have you been a vegetarian? Love that you speak out about this!!! 
Constance Marie: I have not eaten beef for 26 years. Chicken, poultry for 16 years. Fish for six, if forced to I will eat shrimp.

 

Question: What’s going to happen with Regina and Patrick now that she married Angelo? 
Constance Marie: It's going to get very tricky. But come on, Patrick vs. Angelo? I think Regina is a little torn...they're both hot!

 

Question: What is it like on set? Is everything crazy or is it all toned down? How is the Switched at Birth set compared to a comedy set? 
Constance Marie: The Switched at Birth set has a lot longer hours than a comedy set. It's a bit insane in that we will be joking around, having a great time and when they yell, "action," we all start to cry or fight or whatever Lizzy Weiss has asked us to do in a very dramatic way.

 

Question: Does Regina still love Angelo or did she marry solely because she thought it would be better for girls? 
Constance Marie: Wow. How can you not love your baby daddy? But then again, he hasn't always been there for his girls. It's complicated.
