The Young and the Restless has undergone many casting changes this year. So far there’s been departures and the addition of a new cast member. Now, the show will have two fan faves, Michael Damian and Lauralee Bell, return soon.
Danny and Christine Head Back to Genoa City
It’s been a while since Y&R fans saw Danny (Damian) and Christine (Bell). During the couple’s last appearance on the show, they had reunited, and Christine joined Danny on his tour.
Christine returned in October 2024 to help Daniel (Michael Graziadei), who was arrested for Heather’s (Vail Bloom) murder. Danny’s tour kept him away, but he kept in touch with Daniel via video chat. However, the rocker made a surprise appearance to celebrate New Year’s with his family.
With Daniel’s legal woes over, Danny and Christine left town to go back on tour. But the couple is coming back for another visit.
On his Instagram story, Damian revealed that he and Bell are filming at Y&R.

Danny and Christine’s return comes as Daniel makes a huge change in his life. He’s been feeling lost since Heather’s death and decides a career change might help him out of his slump. Daniel decides to follow in his dad’s footsteps and pursue a musical career. With Tessa’s (Cait Fairbanks) help, he’s learning a new talent.
Danny will be surprised, yet happy at Daniel’s new career. The father and son might even give Genoa City their own private concert. With Daniel proving his talent, Danny might help his son by asking him to come on tour.
However, Daniel leaving to go on tour with Danny will infuriate Phyllis (Michelle Stafford). Phyllis loves her son and wants to support his dreams, but not if it means leaving Genoa City. Daniel’s newfound career is bound to set off plenty of arguments between Phyllis, Danny, and Christine.
