The Young and the Restless fans are wondering if Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) is leaving the CBS daytime drama for a couple of reasons.
One reason is Chelsea’s revenge plot to take down Adam (Mark Grossman) and Sharon (Sharon Case) is heating up. The other reason is that Melissa recently announced she is expecting her first child with her husband, Matt Katrosar.
Those two things have fans questioning if Chelsea’s days in Genoa City are numbered. There’s some good and bad news when it comes to answering that question.
The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers reveal that Melissa Claire Egan (Chelsea Lawson) is expecting a baby boy at the end of August, so it’s time to go ahead and start thinking about her upcoming maternity leave. How will Egan be written out of the CBS soap?
On Instagram, Egan answered some fan questions after posting a new baby bump pic from a recent trip. Many viewers are curious about the whole maternity leave situation, so Egan admitted she’s uncertain of what her exit strategy will be – though she did have some fun suggestions!
“Not sure how I’ll be written out for maternity leave yet,” Egan said. “We have some time. Maybe I’ll fall down a well! Or get kidnapped again by Stryker!” The Stryker part is a humorous nod to when Egan’s real-life husband, Matt Katrosar, played her kidnapper last fall.

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers for Thursday, December 31, tease that New Year’s Eve will bring a chance for Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) and Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan) to grow closer.
Although Devon will be more than willing to lend an ear on all her birth mom issues again, Amanda may eventually put her troubles on hold for a while.
After all, New Year’s Eve is a time to count your blessings from the previous year and look to the future. Amanda undoubtedly considers forming this connection with Devon a highlight of 2020. Perhaps Amanda and Devon can toast to whatever this might turn into in 2021.
