From Studio to Skies: Don’s “Flying For Dummies” Escapade

 

The film opens with Don Diamont in a surprising new role: a “pilot”! He shares a series of “huge number of photos with a detailed caption” on Instagram, recounting a truly amusing and adventurous family trip. The highlight: a hilarious anecdote about attempting to “fly a large commercial jet.” Diamont’s caption reads with signature wit, “‘So flying a large commercial jet is harder than we thought. Thankfully, [wife, Cindy Ambuehl], [Anton Ambuehl], and I are nothing if not thinkers, so we opened the glove compartment and lo and behold found a Flying For Dummies pamphlet. We’re quick studies, so problem solved. Push a button here. Slide a handle there and voilà!'”

He continues the delightful joke, revealing the “successful” outcome: “‘We got ourselves and our passengers from LAX to Amsterdam safely! There was some well-deserved patting ourselves on the back!'” This playful narrative, coupled with photos of him, his wife Cindy Ambuehl, and his son Anton Ambuehl in the cockpit, adds an unexpected layer of humor and relatability to the otherwise glamorous life of a soap star. It showcases Diamont’s down-to-earth personality and his willingness to share genuine, funny moments with his fans.

Beyond the playful “flying” antics, Diamont’s journey took a more poignant turn as he and his family explored Amsterdam. He enthusiastically describes the city as “‘what a special canal and bike-centric city! Absolutely beautiful!'” The joy of their trip is palpable as he recounts, “‘We had a blast exploring and spending time with our Dutch friends.'”

A particularly touching aspect of his visit was the connection to his roots. Diamont reveals a deeply personal reason for his Amsterdam pilgrimage: “‘My maternal great-grandparents immigrated to the United States from Holland, so it was very cool to finally get there.'” This emotional connection to his ancestry adds a profound layer to his travels, showcasing a reflective and appreciative side of the actor. It highlights the importance of family history and personal discovery, making his journey more than just a vacation but a homecoming of sorts.

The trip also included professional engagements. Diamont extended his thanks to “‘@kees_de_bevers, @rtlboulevard for a fun interview. On to Munich…'” confirming his active schedule even while on a family trip. This blend of personal exploration and professional commitments provides a comprehensive picture of his life beyond the Bold and the Beautiful set.

The Dutch reality television personality and manager Kees de Bever (Stevens), whom Diamont thanked, also shared a behind-the-scenes clip of their interview.

Southern Utah has awesome scenery. 🙌🙌👏👏👏'”

Interestingly, some fans expressed a preference for seeing their beloved soap stars in more authentic, natural settings rather than just the glitz and glamour. One fan’s comment, “‘I love how you enjoy the outdoors. Keep posting the adventures,'” highlights this desire for relatable content. This sentiment reinforces Diamont’s appeal as an actor who embraces both his professional career and a fulfilling personal life connected to nature and exploration.
