Zach Tinker Suffers Huge Loss

“Today, after 16 years, I had to say good bye to my Dog Beatrice,” Tinker posted. “She was the sweetest, kindest, most wonderful dog a boy could ever hope to have. As many of you may already know, I’m not particularly religious.

“That being said, I hope that Bea is somewhere even more magical and beautiful than here on earth, and that she is someplace nice and safe. She deserves to be happy. I love you Bea— forever and always, no matter what. I hope I can see you again one day.”

Tinker’s friends and followers reached out to him with support. “Luke [Benward] and I send hugs,” wrote Modern Family star Ariel Winter, who plays Alex Dunphy on the ABC sitcom.

The actor first joined YR in 2018. He hasn’t had a significant consecutive run on the show, but he scored an Emmy nomination in the category of Outstanding Younger Leading Actor in a Drama Series in 2019. He has stayed plenty busy in between Genoa City stints.

Tinker recently played a man on Station 19 who almost drowned, which prompted Dean Miller (Okieriete Onaodowan) to leave his corporate job and become a firefighter. Other credits for Tinker include Calculating Euphoria, Hollywood Fringe, Saturday Night at the Starlight, and 13 Reasons Why.

Tinker has shared on his Instagram that he is dating YR co-star Cait Fairbanks (Tessa). Soap Hub sends Tinker sincere condolences at this difficult time. The Young and the Restless (YR) airs weekdays on CBS. Check your local listings for airtimes.
