Nancy Wesley
Nancy Wesley is a fictional character from the American NBC soap opera ''Days of Our Lives'', played by Patrika Darbo. Nancy was created when the serial's producer Tom Langan wanted a "real woman" as opposed to a "super-skinny" actress to join the cast. Casting director, Fran Bascom contacted Darbo with the offer and she accepted. Langan did not require the actress to audition for the role. Nancy is introduced as the wife of Craig Wesley (Kevin Spirtas) and is described as a loyal spouse. Langan liked the dynamic between the two characters; he believed that "handsome" Craig loved the "not super-thin" Nancy very much. Darbo has spoken about the characters sharing a mutual love and credits her own rapport with Spirtas to the character's popularity. Nancy has been featured in storylines involving breast cancer, a feud with Mike Horton (Roark Critchlow), getting run over by a truck and having a child to provide her leukemia stricken daughter, Chloe Lane (Nadia Bjorlin) with a bone marrow transplant. The character also portrayed a storyline which was part of a promotional campaign for food franchisor Mrs. Fields and charity Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
The character has been met with positive reviews. Mark Edward Wilows from the ''Post-Tribune'' reported that critics were "raving" about the "pivotal role" Nancy. Alessandra Stanley of ''The New York Times'' said that Nancy was the most notable celebration of larger-size females on daytime television. Larger female viewers have praised the character because they felt there was a place for themselves on television. For her portrayal of Nancy, Darbo has won a newcomer award at the Soap Opera Digest Awards and has been nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award.
==Creation and casting==
Darbo was hired by ''Days of our Lives'' in May 1998. The serial's casting director, Fran Bascom told Carol Bidwell of ''Los Angeles Daily News'' that their producer, Tom Langan wanted "a real woman, not one of these super-skinny actresses" to join the cast.〔 Bascom said that she immediately thought of accredited actress Darbo. Langan approved Darbo's hiring and decided that she did not need to audition for the role. Nancy is introduced as the wife of Craig Wesley (Kevin Spirtas). Bascom said that Langan "liked the fact that this handsome man loves this woman who's not super-thin - really, really loves her, and the fans love it, too." Darbo told of Lilana Novakovich of ''The Record'' that when Bascom asked her to join the cast, she thought it would be a small role involving food. Darbo worried that producers were not familiar with her and expected someone to say "Oh, my God, you're not who we thought you were. Thank you for coming." In 2003 it was announced that the Wesley family were being written out of the series. Darbo has said "was some of the most fun I’ve ever had. It was also the hardest work I’ve ever done." On November 16, 2012, it was announced that Darbo would be returning to ''Days of our Lives'' after a seven year absence. As a result of the show's production being far ahead, she will reappear in 2013. She returned on March 5, 2013 and vacated the role a month later on April 10, 2013.
