Y&R’s Melissa Claire Egan Addresses ‘Chadam’ Fans

The Young and the Restless’s Melissa Claire Egan has been enjoying her character’s new pairing with Billy, but some fans are still wishing she could revisit her love story with Adam Newman. The actress was recently asked about that yet again — and she shared her thoughts about “Chadam.”

Melissa Claire Egan: Chadam Fans Alive And Vocal

She joined her All My Children buddies Alicia Minshew, Jacob Young, and Jordi Vilasuso in a recent Zoom chat for the fans hosted by Coastal Entertainment. At one point, the event shined a spotlight on her Y&R character’s love life.

Egan (Chelsea, Y&R; ex-Annie, AMC), recently nominated for her seventh Daytime Emmy nod, quickly found herself fielding questions from a Chelsea Lawson and Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) fan base. Back in the day, the former Genoa City supercouple had hearts fluttering thanks to their steamy chemistry. Clearly, the fans were interested in the couple reuniting.

One fan had three pressing questions about Y&R’s former “IT” couple and the actress’s future storyline on the show. “I’m part of the Chelsea and Adam group chat, and we want to know if there’s hope, and we want to know if there’ll ever be another baby, and we want to know if you’ll go back to fashion?”

The actress pointed out that her character has a new interest. “Chelsea’s gotten into little video game stuff lately.”

She also reminded fans that Chelsea and Adam [Mark Grossman] have new love interests. “I think, you know, he’s [got] a lot of good juicy drama with Sally right now, and I’m with Billy [Jason Thompson] now.”

Egan didn’t actually pan the idea of a future coupling between the two black sheep on The Young and the Restless canvas. She left fans with a glimmer of hope. “It’s Chelsea and Adam, you know, they always find their way back to each other eventually,” the actress teased. “But for now, I think they’re both kind of creating a great friendship.”

On a final note, she added, “There is never lost hope for Chadam.” Fans can only hope.
