While the holidays were dramatic for The Young and the Restless’ Phyllis, it was the opposite for Michelle Stafford. The actress and her family had a fun holiday, which was made better with a hilarious prank.
Key Takeaways
- Stafford and her kids spent the holidays with the star’s family.
- The actress took part in the viral Anthropologie rock trend.
- Stafford’s mother and sister were unwittingly part of a holiday prank.
Unusual Gift
Although Stafford is the opposite of her Y&R character, she recently proved she’s quite mischievous. The actress spent Christmas with her family and couldn’t resist pulling a prank.
The Anthropologie rock trend is the latest viral sensation that’s overtaken social media. The prank involves gifting a person an ordinary rock and telling them it’s an expensive decor item from the home good store Anthropologie. Many videos have popped up with the prank and Stafford wanted to get in on the action.
In an Instagram story, the actress posted her own video of the trend. Stafford’s kids Natalia and Jameson gift their mom one of the “Anthropologie” rocks. The star is acting joyful as she opens her new gift, yet Stafford’s mom and sister don’t understand the hype.
When Stafford reveals that the rock cost $500, her family freaks out over the price. Stafford’s sister Janine says $500 ridiculous and she could just get a regular rock from the yard. Stafford has a few good laughs before revealing the prank to her family, who took it in stride.
Not-So-Merry Christmas For Phyllis
While Stafford was enjoying a fun and hilarious Christmas with her family, it wasn’t so merry for Phyllis. The redhead has once again found herself in a heap of trouble thanks to Victor (Eric Braeden).
Phyllis stole Cane’s (Billy Flynn) AI software and used it to make a deal with Victor. Miss Summers was ecstatic about the possibility of being Jabot CEO once Victor took control of the company. However, in true Victor fashion, he double-crossed her.
With Phyllis’ dreams up in smoke, she’s back to square one. Yet, she’s not down for the count. She already has a plan to make things right and get back on top.
Phyllis’ new plan involves retrieving the AI software from Victor and helping Jack (Peter Bergman) save Jabot. If Phyllis manages to pull this off, she’ll be a hero to Jack and the Abbott family. As a reward, Jack might offer Phyllis a job at Jabot, something she won’t be able to resist.
2026 is the chance for Phyllis to start fresh, and after the rough year she had, she needs it. But will Phyllis be back to her old self or will a new side of her emerge?
