Country Star Craig Morgan to Guest on Season 6
We have another exciting name to the add to the familiar faces joining Fort Marshall for Season 6 of "Army Wives" — and this time, it's a man! Craig Morgan was on the Charleston, South Carolina, set to film a performance for the show's upcoming season and the country star is now hoping to be back for more.
In an interview with "The Tennessean" Craig spilled about his time on set: βFor whatever reason, they liked me,β he reports. βAnd when itβs all said and done, theyβre going to try to write me in on a real role. How cool is that? It would be awesome.β
Not only is this news cool (and awesome :), it's easy to see why he would be a perfect fit for the show! The singer is a family man with Southern roots and also a veteran of the U.S. Army. If he snags a role, Craig will join Susan Lucci and Kelli Williams as Season 6 guest stars.
Let's play casting directors, shall we, "Army Wives" fans? What role would be perfect for Craig Morgan on this season of "Army Wives"?
And flash back to Season 4, Episode 6 of "Army Wives" with photos of the cast with guest star, country singer Wynonna Judd:
