In a recent interview with The Soap Show, Lachman mentioned how she visited England in late 2006 and appeared on the BBC television show Ready Steady Cook. In the interview, Lachman explained that she is in Los Angeles to further her acting career but mentioned she would love to work in the UK and Australia in the future.
