Roseanne’s Sandra Bernhard, Morgan Fairchild Hash Out On-Set Beef Decades Later
Morgan Fairchild and Sandra Bernhard have put their Roseanne beef to bed.
It all started when Bernhard admitted on a June 20 episode of Watch What Happens Live that she hadn’t always been kind to Fairchild — who appeared in a few episodes of the ABC sitcom as Marla, Bernhard’s on-screen girlfriend.

“It’s one of my biggest regrets that I wasn’t nicer to her,” Bernhard confessed to host Andy Cohen. “I would like to say to Morgan: You were incredible to work with. You went there. We were the first gay couple on TV… I owe you an apology. I adore you, and thank you for putting up with my snotty little attitude.”
Fairchild has since addressed her former castmate in a post on X, responding to a video of the apology.
“I’m very touched by [Bernhard]’s words,” Fairchild wrote. “Very nice of her. Yes, it was a difficult set for me, but that’s show biz.” The actress invited Bernhard to send her a message so the pair could grab coffee.
Bernhard posted a reply on X, calling Fairchild a “groovy, open, talented person,” and agreed to “break it all down over a cup of Joe.”
Following up on the saga on Saturday, Fairchild revealed, “[Bernhard] has reached out and we are in touch.”
