She seems like such a wonderful person. I admired her greatly for not letting Lorimar buy her, as much as I'd rather Pam had stayed she did 250 episodes which is all I need from Dallas and all I'll ever watch.
She built a fantastic empire with Principal Secret and even though I'm a guy and beauty products mean little to me I admire what she achieved there.
Love that she is now devoting her time to animals and living her best life. She seems happy and at peace. Love following her on social media.

I just adore the woman, she really is just a breath of fresh air in today's miserable world.
She always invests her whole self and love into everything she does, be it fans of Dallas, her wonderful animals or anything else. She also has a wicked sense of humour and the most infectious laugh in the business.
I would love to see more video interviews with her, she's far from being a hermit and always interacts with her fans in Twitter, Facebook, Instagram etc, but more interviews with Victoria would be very welcome for me.

I don't think there's anything wrong with what the other cast members chose to do...other than it being a bit sketchy of Patrick to be totally fine with other members having decreased screen time for him to get the JR and Bobby fiasco that was the final seasons. Even that was his prerogative though. Just don't try to convince us, decades later that it was "Three Musketeers" when we all know Linda got the boot and he and Larry were totally okay with it...Steve, Charlene, etc.
As for Victoria, I think she's matured very enviably. I don't think she's suddenly become a selfless, lovable person or anything...I think people like her always have those traits but perhaps she's learned how to communicate more effectively??? You can have the purest of intentions and still manage to insult others. Like Kathy Lee Gifford and the "you must love cheese" comment Victoria said about her thighs. Or not hiring Valerie Bertinelli for a Principal Secret ad because of Valerie's weight, etc. Or even putting Roy from Dallas Fanzine on hold right away so she could get a cup of tea. It was totally fine because afterwards she gave a lengthy, personable interview but it was rude at the start too.
Anyway, I do think she's a great person and I don't feel let down or ashamed of admiring her and her accomplishments my whole life.

She doesn't have a public/ verified Twitter account does she?
I too would love more interviews or even for her to release an autobiography. Most of all, I'd love for a joint interview/podcast with her and Patrick. I'm not sure if it's Patrick who insists she's not invited to interviews though...my guess is Linda just because she obviously has an issue with Victoria...she never ever likes Fanzine posts about Victoria (not even birthday) and she does for every other former co-star. It seems deliberate.
It would just make my DALLAS loving heart very happy if she and Patrick would do a podcast or something about DALLAS. Their interview on the 2004 CBS reunion was my favourite part.

No, not on Twitter, you're right - the account I see there is Victoria Principle Fans, but on Facebook and Instagram she has official accounts.
I’ve heard her say in multiple interviews that she told them two years in advance that she would leave in 1987 and that they were surprised when she actually did. But many accounts say that she was negotiating with the show early in 1987, and the sticking points were money and length of contract (producers wanted a two year deal and she allegedly only wanted one).

You should check out YouTube.
Her appearances on the Wogan show on BBC1 here in the UK were very memorable.
Terry's interviews with her are on YT if you wanna check them out, she has an infectious laugh too.

Oh I know. I love her with Wogan, but I'd love to see new ones as I've seen and heard all the ones she's done on TV and with Dallas fanzines etc.You should check out YouTube.

Victoria keeps herself very much to herself these days.
Have you checked the Ultimate Dallas website, there's audio interviews with the cast on there.

Yes, I've seen and heard every interview she's done that's available online.

I too would love to see Patrick and Victoria do some sort of Podcast jointly, don’t know what it is if she not included, maybe she made her way in life without peddling the Dallas wagon.....but would love her to be included more. In that lifetime phone in thing she talked most with Steve and Linda never spoke, Pat D interacted well. Pamela was the key to Dallas, time is ticking, do something with the original 5, as Pat said there was a place for her there!

I believe both are true. I think she was open to staying beyond 1987. Perhaps. But she was intending to leave in two years back in 1985.

I'd love to see her contribute to a new Dallas documentary. Maybe for the shows Fiftieth Anniversary. She would be sensational in a podcast though.
