So Long, Mia: Noemi Gonzalez OFF The Young and the Restless

Mia is full of surprises both on and off The Young and the Restless screen. The character is about to find out she’s really pregnant this week, while actress Noemi Gonzalez just announced her departure from the soap. In a tweet on Sunday evening, Gonzalez wrote the following:

“I have been honored and blessed with the opportunity to embody such a dynamic character on such a special show. This is the hardest working cast/crew/staff in show business, let me tell you.

“A special thank you to Jordi Vilasuso, Jason Canela, Marisa Garcia, Kathy Jones, and Patricia Denney.

“Thank you so very much to Sony Pictures Television and CBS for gracing me with the opportunity to be a part of such an iconic show. But, most importantly, thank you to our loyal fans. Everything I gave was for you and the love of your stories

“I’m going to miss Mia Rosales and Genoa City. I will still be on the air for another month, but I’m off to shake things up elsewhere. Stay tuned for what’s next.”

Gonzalez and Mia are the second Rosales family casualties since the latest producing and writing team of Tony Morina and Josh Griffith took over YR earlier this year. Jason Canela’s Arturo was the first to be let go.

Does this mean Mia really is having Arturo’s baby and the two might go off together into the proverbial sunset. As Gonzalez says, stay tuned for what’s next.
