Kathleen Elizabeth "Kay" Bennett Crane is a Fictional Character on NBC 's daytime drama '' Passions ''. Kay has been played by Taylor Anne Mountz (1999-2000), Deanna Wright (2000-2003), and Heidi Mueller (2003-present) since being introduced to the show in 1999. She was also played temporarily by Gina Marie May in the summer of 2000 while producers searched for a replacement for Mountz. Stephanie Patton also portrayed Kay in various flashbacks in 2003 at age nine. CHARACTER HISTORY Kay was born the middle child of Sam and Grace Bennett in the small New England town of Harmony. Growing up, she was a bit of a tomboy, and had a major crush on her baseball teammate Miguel Lopez-Fitzgerald , one of her closest friends. During the summer of 1999, a teenage Kay's hopes of finally revealing her feelings to Miguel were suddenly dashed by the arrival of Charity Standish (her cousin), a mysterious new girl in town who quickly caught Miguel's eye at the town carnival. Kay's feelings toward Charity didn't soften when she discovered Charity was her cousin, for Grace Bennett and Faith Standish , Charity's mother, were identical twins whom both thought the other had died in a fire years ago. Throughout the next five years, Kay plotted and schemed her way to be Miguel's one true love, a title that was quickly taken by Charity. Kay, relentless in her pursuit of Miguel, used magic to make Miguel believe she was Charity. By this illusion, Kay was able to trick Miguel into sleeping with her and became pregnant with Miguel's child. Kay went into premature labor and gave birth to a girl named Maria Ivy after Miguel's grandmother and her father's former girlfriend. Maria nearly died in the hospital, but when Death came to take her Charity offered to end her relationship with Miguel if Maria would live. Death accepted the deal. Eventually, a distraught Charity left Harmony. Miguel, refusing to accept that their relationship had ended, left Kay alone to raise baby Maria so that he could go in search of Charity. Kay was struggling as a single mother, working double shifts at the cannery. With Miguel out of Harmony, Kay fell in love with the rich Crane heir Fox Crane during a Tsunami that hit Harmony. The two moved into their neighbor-witch Tabitha's house. Tabitha and Kay already had a rapport as that Kay had briefly tutored under Tabitha to learn magic, but her powers never really surfaced. After a Cinderella-esque romance, Kay and Fox became engaged. Kay's storyline soon shifted to her struggle to remain faithful to Fox. Ivy Winthrop , Fox's overbearing mother, was able to trick Miguel into returning to Harmony. Ivy, due to Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald 's betrayal of her favorite son Ethan Winthrop , is distrustful of most women who become interested in her sons. Ivy is particularly hostile towards Kay because Kay knows Ivy's darkest secret-- that Ivy had blackmailed David Hastings into pretending to be Kay's mother Grace's first husband so Ivy could get Kay's father Sam, her first love, back. Kay, who thought she had overcome her feelings for Miguel, soon realized that her old feelings were resurfacing. However, Kay refused to be with Miguel even after he declared that he had given up on Charity and wanted to be a family with Kay and Maria. Kay was dealing with her jealousy over Miguel's relationship with Siren , a mermaid-turned-human. However, Endora zapped Siren into a fish tank after Fox complained that she was complicating his relationship with Kay. Despite the chaos regarding Fox and Miguel, Kay married Fox on January 10, 2007. Fox lied that he had a terminal illness to get Kay to stay with him and compounded his lies by accusing Miguel of running him down with his car and trying to kill him. Miguel was convicted in a sham trial and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole; the judge was blackmailed by the same blackmailer taking control of Theresa's life. Kay planned on telling Fox, from much urging by Miguel, that she is leaving him for Miguel. She tried once, but he pretended that he was asleep. But Julian Crane struck a deal with Kay: that if he could get Miguel out of prison, she must stay with Fox. Kay agreed and now she waits for Fox to die of his "terminal illness" so she can be with Miguel forever. In June 2007, Kay accompanied Tabitha to another realm to rescue Tabitha's daughter Endora from two evil witches. The witches proved to be too much for Tabitha and Endora, and it looked as though they were going to lose. However, Kay used her love for her friends to summon the magical powers deep within her and vanquished the two evil witches. She is now excited about her newly released powers and is experimenting with them ... with disastrous results. One evening Fox caught Kay and Miguel and started to fight with him. Kay used her magical powers with the help of the demon elf she released when looking for her kidnapped sister Jessica. She saw that Fox had faked his illness and left him. She and Miguel then had a commitment ceremony and are presently happy together. Kay's divorce from Fox was set to be finalized but was instead dissolved when he was murdered. Tragedy also ensued when Miguel found out a few months earlier about the truth that Kay, Tabitha, and Endora were witches. The "Boys in the Basement" retaliated and kidnapped Endora. When Miguel tried to save her they were both sucked into another dimension. FAMILY Marital Status
