Bree Williamson is an actress who has worked on various soaps, including One Life to Live and General Hospital. Recently, she opened up about a tragic loss in her life. In addition, she opened up about the importance of people making use of the time we have.
Bree Williamson Has Played Multiple Characters, From Jessica Buchanan To Claudette J. Beaulieu
As an actress, Williamson became known to many through the role of Jessica Buchanan on One Life to Live. She played the character until the soap’s cancellation in 2013.
In 2016, Bree took on the role of Claudette J. Beaulieu on General Hospital. Williamson has also appeared in a number of Lifetime movies, including Mommy Is a Murderer and A Killer in My Home.
In her personal life, Bree married Michael Roberts, who served as an animator and director for the adult animated series, BoJack Horseman, in 2008. The two welcomed their son, McGreggor Edward Roberts, in 2010.
Tragically, however, the actress recently announced the tragic loss of her spouse this past Wednesday in an official obituary. Reportedly, he died at their Los Angeles home after a brief battle with glioblastoma.
According to Ever Loved, Williamson shared in a statement: “We were supposed to have more time. More conversations over a good cup of coffee. More spirited debates about matters both profound and wonderfully insignificant.” She continued, “More laughter, more stories, more music and more ordinary moments that would someday become extraordinary memories.”

Ultimately, the actress emphasized that time isn’t as important as what we do with it. As she shared, “We would have wished for so many more years. More conversations. More chances to disagree about something entirely inconsequential, only to wonder afterward whether perhaps he had a point. But a life is not measured by its years alone. It lives on in the people we love, the ways we shape one another, and the different perspectives we leave behind.”
Bree emphasized, “Some people leave us with memories. Others leave us seeing the world a little differently. Michael gave us both.” In lieu of flowers and donations, Bree also asked that people save their money, feeling that it was what her husband would have wanted.
