We have yet to nail down a day that works for both of us because she’s very busy, too.” “Mercedes and I are engaged, but we don’t know when we’re getting married. “Her name is Mercedes and now we have a son, Caden, and a daughter, Gaia,” grins Archey, who is also dad to 11-year-old Machiah. There’s not much you can do by staying in the house.”Īs he was building his portfolio, Archey fell in love with another model. is definitely the place where you need to network and get to know people to build a name for yourself. “Modeling put me in a position where I had to be more open and conversational. “It just came out of the blue and was the last thing on my mind, but it helped me to break out of my shell,” he notes. I came here to live with my uncle.”Ī couple of months after relocating, Archey stumbled into modeling. So we decided it was best for me to move to L.A. I was working, but I had no real aspirations. Other than that, I really wasn’t doing anything. “I was a carpenter and installed hardwood floors for about two years. “I had no idea what I wanted to do,” he shares. That is the reason I have such a strong bond with my grandparents.”Īrchey says he didn’t have a solid goal in mind when he graduated from high school. She moved around a lot, so I didn’t see her as much as I would have liked to or felt I needed. I did spend time with my own mother, here and there. She was throwing pots and pans and I was running out of the house to get away from her, but we have always had the greatest relationship. I did have times when my grandmother got upset with me. That included homework, but my grades were not horrible, I just would kind of pick and choose when I felt like working. Since I was an only child and kind of spoiled, I decided that if I didn’t want to do something, that was that, and no one was going to make me do it. Which doesn’t mean Archey threw himself into his studies. “I didn’t talk a lot and stayed to myself.” “People thought I was stuck up or snotty,” he chuckles. Later on, I found a couple of friends that I really stuck to, but I did wish I had a brother or sister.” In high school, Archey realized his social ineptness was being misperceived by peers. “Since they were older, they didn’t really go out much, so I was always in the house with them. “I was raised by my grandparents and I was very much an introvert,” he explains. Growing up in Northern California, Archey never dreamed he would be starring on America’s No. “I don’t feel like I’m hanging around in the back anymore,” he enthuses. Now, Archey is part of a front-burner story and loving it. That twist was Mason secretly working with Hilary to stalk the Winters family. “She said to me, ‘I just read something for your character and, boy, is it good!’ A week or two later, I got the script and she was right.
“I was at a Daytime Emmy party and ran into Jill ,” Archey recalls. Just when it looked like the character would fade into the background, an optimistic comment came about his future. Mason was abruptly fired and sidelined into posing for Jabot’s new fashion line (“I had no idea where he was going”). I aspire to get to a point like he is, to come out and own the camera.” I really learned from him he knows what he is talking about. And most of the time, what he wants is usually right. “But he turned out to be so down-to-earth and he knows what he wants. “I was a little intimidated when I found out that I would be working with Eric Braeden ,” Archey admits. It was definitely surreal.”īack in Genoa City, Mason’s story started off promising after he landed a job as Adam’s executive assistant, then conspired with Victor. “Two weeks before that, nobody knew who I was and now they were screaming for me.

“That was the first time that I stepped in a room full of women who were excited to see me,” he marvels. She told me, ‘I don’t know how I’m going to pull it all off.’ Hearing from her that she was nervous put me at ease and I realized, ‘I’m not the only one here who feels this way.’ ” Archey didn’t even have time to find his footing when he was suddenly thrust into the limelight along with some of his hunky co-stars (Williams, Marco Dapper, Carmine, and Ignacio Serricchio, Alex) to appear on THE TALK. “My first scene was with Michelle and she said she was nervous because of all this dialogue she had. “I was shaking in my boots on my first day,” Archey remembers. Archey had originally auditioned for the role of Tyler, which went to Redaric Williams, but the runner-up made such an impression, a new role was created for him. That’s because not too long ago, Mason barely registered on the storyline radar after debuting as Sarge’s ambitious nephew last December.
