Adain Bradley Joins The Bold and the Beautiful As The Newest Member Of The Avant Family!
British-raised Adain Bradley, who has appeared on the hit CW series, Riverdale, is heading to CBS Daytime and The Bold and the Beautiful!
Beadley is set to play the role of Alexander Avant, nephew to Julius Avant (Obba Babatundé), and cousin to Maya (Karla Mosley).
As to the back-story of the new Avant: He is is half-British and was raised in England by Julius’ brother and his wife. Alexander comes to Los Angeles looking for his American family, and carries with him, but of course, a big secret!
Tv Insider first revealed the casting news.
Watch for Bradley’s B&B debut on the upcoming June 12th episode.
So, what do you think the secret that Alexander will bring with him from across the pond that could cause trouble for the Avant family? Comment below.
His secret better be that he is in love with Liam if he wants to be on the show every day. Otherwise he is destined for virtual invisibility and ultimate abandonment (just ask Avant secret sister Sasha and the rest of the Avant clan). Why not just make him a recast Zende and juice up the family’s story line again? Bold and Beautiful – the 30 minute show that features 10 minutes of flashbacks and 10 minutes of commercials every day, leaving 8 minutes of rehashed dialogue to fast forward through and 2 minutes of actual new story. How do the actors not go mad repeating the same dialogue for days on end? Hey, new guy! Check in with nu-Thorne to find out what happens if you’re not tied to the latest Liam-Hope-Steffy triangle. Or just ask one of the nu-Spectras how exciting it is to be part of the B&B family.
That was a funny comment! You are so correct in everything you said!
LMAO. He and Liam will be trapped in an abandon building thinking it’s curtains for the two of them, and kiss. Then be rescued. LOL.
Completely totally agree with you…This show is such a joke to me. I knew as soon as Hope came back into the picture, it was going to be nothing but the triangle of Steffy/ Liam/ & Hope….Everyone will be on the back burner for God knows how long because they are going to re-hash this story that they have beaten into the ground yet again! Tell me, why did I see today that Liam has already proposed to Hope?? I swear these two women have no standards at all when it comes to men. They act as if Liam is the second coming of Christ himself. I mean are there no other men in Los Angeles?? I truly wish Liam was in a coma for at least two years, so we wouldn’t have to see his face!
You make me laugh, friend. You not only make your point in an entertaining way… you make a very valid point! B&B needs a blast of something. I sometimes feel the show is sort of a daytime walking dead. I get no foundation for these relationships — such deep emotions are forgotten as soon as a brief story arc is finished — and no one ever does anything of import. Even fashion seems to take a backseat.
It’s odd that they’re introducing a new member of the Avant family when we barely see Maya and Nicole anymore, let alone Julius or Vivienne. It seems like B&B has too large of a cast to handle right now, considering the bulk of story is around Steffy, Liam, Hope and Bill.
He is British, a cousin. and comes from England to seek out his American family and has a big secret…HE IS A VAMPIRE!..oops…i mistaken his background and secret to that of Dark Shadows’ Barnabas Collins!-lol
Well he’s dark and after a month he AND his British accent will be in the shadows. .of the storylines. So you’re right.
Ohhhh, Dark Shadows and Barnabas Collins!! How I loved that show as a kid. Miss it still. Even with all it’s klinks, cameras showing, actors stumbling on lines, it was still so entertaining, sometimes better then the stories lately on the current soaps.
WHY???
The Avant’s are rarely on the show, so why do we need ANOTHER one?
If they’re adding to the Avant family, bring beck Sasha! That would be a much better addition!
Y-E-T ANOTHER BONEHEADED DECISION by Bradley Bell and TPTB!!!!! FOOLS!!!!!
Surprised at this. Why not make story for those already on the show? Where is Thorne? Has he gone back to the Forrester basement?
And who is there for this cat to hook up with?
Maybe Thorne is busy learning how to maintain a convincing American accent? 😉
I forgot about Emma. I guess they’ll pair these two up. Yawn.
You know what would be nice? If they used the Avants already in town instead of adding more. Write a big story for Julius, Viv, Rick and Maya and let’s have a much-needed break from Steam, Still and Lope. They brought Sasha on and did absolutely nothing with her once everyone found out she is Julius’ daughter. Now, this kid is in town with a secret, so will he be gone too once it is revealed? I cannot believe they put one of the best actors in soaps (Jacob Young) on reoccurring status when he should be in a huge story. It makes no sense any more than hiring an actor to play a new Avant.
wow i guess the avants will have a storyline for 2 weeks
It looks like the current run of Lucas Adams (Noah) and Tamara Braun (Sienna) on The Young and the Restless is coming to an end, after the Monday, August 3 edition of the CBS daytime drama revealed that Noah and Sienna are leaving Genoa City and heading back to Los Angeles.
In the storyline, Noah informed his mother, Sharon (Sharon Case) and half-sister Mariah (Camryn Grimes) that he and Sienna made the decision to move back to the West Coast to put distance between themselves and Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). Although Noah did not say it was a permanent move, he did assure his mom that once Matt is hopefully gone from Genoa City they could return.
However, as previewed already on the video teaser for this week’s episodes of Y&R (see below), it appears Noah left Genoa City’s The Shadow Room to be run by a returning Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian). So with that, coupled with today’s episode, it would appear the move could wind up being more permanent.

COMINGS AND GOINGS
Adams made his Y&R debut on November 4, 2025 as the successor to Rory Gibson who last played Noah on-screen in April of 2023. Earlier in 2025, Gibson took over the role of Michael Corinthos on Genera Hospital replacing Chad Duell, who stepped away from the part after 15 years.
Braun who played Adam’s mother on Days of Our Lives when she was Ava Vitali and he was Tripp Dalton, first appeared on Y&R back on October 14, 2025, where we soon learned she had become Noah’s lover as the new character, Sienna Bacall. It should be noted, Adams was on contract with the number #1 soap, while Braun has been on recurring status.
With Josh Griffith now exited as head writer of The Young and the Restless, and the newly announced co-head writing team of Jamey Giddens and Dan O’Connor having taken his place and starting their new tenure this week, it will be interesting to see how the duo resets the show, and if a Noah and Sienna return is in the cards for the future or not.
So, what do you think about the seeming departures of Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun from The Young and the Restless? Weigh-in via the comment section. But first, check out our recent live chat with Tamara and Lucas on the Michael Fairman Channel.
Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.
The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.
The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW
As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.
O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”
Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”
You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.
Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.
