Y&R’s Foster Family History

In Y&R, Rowell’s character, Dru, adopted Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) with her husband Neil Winters (Kristoff St. John) when he was a young man. The adoption came after he lived with them and their daughter Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) as a foster child. Rowell was a big proponent of showing positive images of foster care on her soap. Throughout the years, the CBS daytime drama featured stories of families fostering children or characters who came from foster care.
