Sarah Elizabeth Randall is a fictional character on the daytime soap opera Guiding Light.
Character history
She is the only child of Jonathan Randall and Elizabeth "Lizzie" Spaulding. Sarah was conceived during a one-night stand between her parents. Jonathan was trying to get over his former girlfriend Tammy Winslow and Lizzie was trying to get over her former boyfriend Henry Cooper "Coop" Bradshaw.
When Lizzie learned that she was pregnant she decided to pass the baby off as Coop's child. Lizzie and Coop were about to get married when Jonathan revealed the truth during the ceremony and the wedding was called off. Once the truth about the baby's paternity was revealed, Lizzie and Jonathan banded together when Lizzie's grandfather Alan Spaulding tried to go for custody of Lizzie's unborn daughter.
Even though Jonathan loved Tammy, Lizzie and Jonathan got married in order to keep custody of their daughter which they named Sarah Elizabeth Randall. Sarah was named after Jonathan's grandmother. Lizzie slowly begun to fall in love with Jonathan, but Jonathan was still in love with his ex-girlfriend Tammy.
Jonathan and Lizzie annulled their marriage so that Jonathan could marry Tammy. Alan wanted Jonathan to pay so he set Jonathan up to get hit by a car but Tammy pushed Jonathan out of the way. Tammy died a short time later. Jonathan knew that Alan would never stop coming after Jonathan in order to get to Sarah, so Jonathan faked his death along with Sarah's.
Sarah is a de facto Princess of San Cristobel, due to her father (Jonathan) being the son of Prince Richard Winslow. In the show, she is hardly portrayed as such, but nonetheless, she is.
Most of the town of Springfield believes that Jonathan and Sarah died from February 2007 to January 2008.
Jonathan and one-year-old Sarah returned to Springfield in January 2008 almost a year after faking their deaths. Lizzie struck a deal with Alan: she would let him control her life, if he backed off of Sarah. This allowed Jonathan and Sarah to leave town again, with Lizzie's blessing.
Then, in August 2009, Jonathan and Sarah find an alive Jeffrey O'Neill. And in September 2009, Jonathan returned with Sarah to Springfield. Lizzie had married Bill Lewis, and Jonathan decided to share custody with them. During the final episode that aired September 18, 2009, (one year later - 2010) Jonathan and Sarah still live in Springfield and Sarah is shown touching her mother's pregnant stomach, trying to feel her little brother kick.
