The young And The Restless Spoilers – Lucy Romalotti Returns

Y&R spoilers reveal that in light of everything that happened during the week of November 11-15, it’s no surprise that Lucy Romalotti will return the week of November 18-22.

Lily Brooks O’Briant will reprise the role, and share scenes with Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei), as well as Summer Newman (Allison Lanier), and Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) on the Thursday, November 21 episode.

Y&R Spoilers: Dr. Elena Dawson Is Back!

Speaking of Phyllis, Dr. Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) will be leading the medical team who is addressing Red’s medical emergency. As fans saw last week, Phyllis was run off the road, and almost lost her life in the process.

Fans can expect to see Elena surface during the Monday, November 18 episode as she does everything she can to help with Phyllis’ road to recovery.

While Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) believes she’s the one behind this all, fans were shocked to learn that Aunt Jordan (Colleen Zenk) and Ian Ward (Ray Wise) were the masterminds of it all and could potentially be Heather Stevens’ (Vail Bloom) murderers.

The duo revealed themselves during the Thursday, November 14 show and will cause more chaos during the Tuesday, November 19 show.

Y&R Spoilers: Melissa Ordway No Longer On Contract

Meanwhile, Y&R fans got more shocking news, off the cusp of the show’s 13,000 episode no less, that Melissa Ordway (Abby Newman-Abbott-Hamilton-Winters) has been demoted to recurring status.

The actress revealed this on the evening of Y&R’s big Wednesday special episode via her IG Stories, and many were taken aback since Abby was at the center of the entire 13,000th show as she married the love of her life Devon Hamilton-Winters (Bryton James).

There was a flurry of activity online Thursday morning, which prompted the actress to upload another video on her IG, explaining that while she’s no longer on contract with the soap, she’s still a part of the show, just in a different capacity.
