[Spoiler!] to Appear on Secret Life Christmas Special! — Exclusive

While The Secret Life of the American Teenager has had its share of new faces this season, there’s one newcomer you may not be expecting.

“There’s a donkey,” Francia Raisa teased to us about the upcoming Christmas special.

While Francia kept her lips sealed about their new furry friend, she would say how fun the episode was to film.

“I was such a little kid walking in the room [with] all the toys laying everywhere,” Francia exclaimed. “My house started smelling like Christmas [and] I’m freaking out that I have to go Christmas shopping. It’s awesome!”

It sounds like all fun and games, but with talk of a scary situation and someone almost dying in an upcoming episode, who knows what could happen! 

But if something does go awry during the holidays, at least the cast enjoyed themselves while shooting it!

“We had so much fun filming,” Francia spilled. “When they called cut, none of us stopped playing!”

Secret Life's holiday special, “Hedy’s Happy Holiday House,” airs on Monday, Nov. 19 at 8 p.m. ET on ABC Family.
