Eileen Davidson is a trooper. The Young and the Restless actress recently underwent surgery after fracturing her patella. But instead of resting, the star is back at work on the soap opera.

Key Takeaways

  • Eileen Davidson underwent surgery for a knee injury.
  • The actress returned to work at Y&R.
  • Davidson’s character Ashley is set to make an appearance soon.

Eileen Davidson Pulls It Together With Help From Her Friends

Davidson (Ashley) has had it rough the past week. On September 18th, the actress revealed she fractured her patella after getting out of a cold plunge.

She is now on the mend and back at work after undergoing surgery on her knee. However, Davidson’s first day back at work was a bit of a challenge, but she got through it with help from her friends.

“Apparently it’s true. The show must go on,” Davidson captioned an Instagram post featuring her X-ray. “Thanks you @laurenmendozahair and @makeupbyorlando and @mandiline and @tmlorito and the whole team at @youngandrestlesscbs for helping me pull it all together. And special thanks to @mel_ordway for logistical stuff!”

Davidson showed off her knee brace, which matched her black-and-gold dress. Despite her injury, Davidson looked glamorous as she prepared for a day of filming.

After thanking the cast and crew for their help, the actress gave a shoutout to her husband, Vincent Van Patten. “Oh, and @vince_van_patten for transpo and carrying things and feeding me and everything else.”

Ashley Returns For Her Brother’s Wedding

Davidson’s character, Ashley, is set to make her return for a very important occasion. Ashley’s younger brother, Billy (Jason Thompson), is getting ready to tie the knot with Sally (Courtney Hope).

While it’s supposed to be a happy occasion, it won’t be without drama. Fall spoilers hint that the Abbott sisters will have different opinions about their new sister-in-law.

Odds are, it could be Ashley who might not be so supportive of her brother’s bride. Given Sally’s past and some of the things she did to the Abbott family, Ashley will have her doubts about Miss Spectra. Although Ashley has her concerns, it’s Billy’s decision, and he’s committed to Sally and their baby.

But Ashley’s disapproval might not be the only drama at Billy and Sally’s nuptials. There’s the possibility of a wedding crasher with either Adam (Mark Grossman) or possibly Patty (Stacy Haiduk) interrupting the ceremony. It’s bound to be a ceremony that Ashley, the Abbotts, and fans won’t forget.
