When Ellen and David Stewart divorced on ATWT in the early 1980's, Ellen moved into an apartment and became friendly with her divorcee neighbor, Suz, played by Betsy Palmer. In a couple of episodes, at most, Edie Adams played Rosanne, a friend of Suz's. This was merely a guest appearance, not even a recurring role.
