Get to know Hayley Erin.
Hayley Erin is getting a second chance as a leading lady on The Young and the Restless. Pink-slipped as Abby Newman back in 2010, when the soap decided to age the character, she’s boarding the soap in a new role: Claire Grace, an employee at Newman Media.
After leaving Y&R, Erin went on to play heroine Kiki Jerome on General Hospital. The character was killed off in 2019 when Erin opted not to renew her contract so she could take on the lead role of Taylor Hotchkiss on the Freeform series Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists.
