Eileen expressed: “Yes I am leaving my second home @YandR_CBS in September. I’ve been so blessed to be able to play Ashley Abbott and work with the amazing people on the show and have nothing but gratitude and love for all!!! Time for a little more control over my day to day!”

Perfect timing for Kristin to come back to Salem and add to Brady’s harem who are fighting for him. I expect Nicole back soon too. 4lovely schemers to add more chaos to Salem.
It won’t be the same jack needs his sister
Jackie needs his sister and so does her daughter.
It’s not the first time she has left the show,it’s happened before
Please write her out as a kidnapping, so she can have a chance for a return. Or make her richer than Victor so she can be the boss over the mustache.
Ashley Abbott , she is a nasty piece of work.
She’s the one taking down Newman Enterprise and she will exit by going to prison.
You heard it here first, folks
Ashley Abbott is the culprit behind the destruction of NE, wait for it.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
I don’t believe this, I think JT is alive. Heck, maybe Victor is doing it to clean house.
Oh, I didn’t even think of that, now, that would be a TWIST!
Not sure about that one, SUOO. But I was thinking (and hoping) that Ashely geared up the whole Jack paternity story. Ashely was deeply emotionally scarred upon finding out that she’s not the biological daughter of John Abbott. She deeply resented Jack for being the CEO of Jabot Cosmetics and never forgave him for the blood Abbot clause. I think she took advantage of her mother’s ramblings and tampered with both the DNA test results to get back at Jack and to possibly take over Jabot cosmetics after Billy does away with the blood Abbott clause. This would not be the first time Ashely tampered with DNA results. Billy thwarted her plans by actually digging his new role as the Jabot CEO and now she’s banking on his propensity to self sabotage. When the truth comes out Ashely will be sent back to the loony bin and Jack will be sent back to his rightful seat as the Jabot CEO. This is what I HOPE will turn out anyway because I hate that they have also taken Jack away from John. First they kill of John Abbott, then they make Ashely illegitimate and now they are tying to do the same to Jack. The Abbotts are now on the endangered species list. Moreover, I hate that they have Jack acting like a silly lost boy looking for his daddy at the tender age of sixty-four.
And! I hope Ravi isn’t helping her..

SUooo
You have an edit button.
To do so, please do the following.
After your comment is approved, you can go back and edit it, by logging back in with your email and username in the comment section.
There you can see your post and edit away.

hi Michael–
I have seen the edit button but it is quite useless when your mistakes are up to be seen until you correct them AFTER your post has been posted..
and then after correcting your mistake, the correction would not be seen until near 24 hours after.
((I think the board is updated twice in 24grs.))
The edit button should be available as soon as you see your mistake Before its posted, not after..
\but the edit button should be available for both before the posts is posted and after. IMO..
Hi suOOO
I understand what you are saying. Trust me.
I had addressed this with the developers previously many times and looked for a solution.
Unfortunately, the way this commenting system works, you can not get an edit button until the post is approved.
Then you can go in and edit.
At this point, we are not going to again rip out the commenting system again, which we had already done post-launch.
Since everyone complained there was no edit button on the old site, we have implemented one here.
So for now you can either you this one the way it can work, and make your changes, or you can opt to forego it, and just not edit your comments.
if anything changes, and we find a solution to keep it in-line with our present system, we will do so and I will update users of the change.
Thanks,
Michael
Thanks for the comeback, Michael..
)ooh mercy! unless my mistakes are totally awful they will most likely stand as is..
It could make for some fun reads 🙂
((luvin the new site ))
I HOPE SHE RECONSIDERS FOR SHE MAKES THE SHOW WHEN SHE IS ON. SHE PUT HER ALL IN WHAT SHE DOES AND IT IS SO SURPRISING HOW MUCH HER AND ABBEY FAVOR EACH OTHER JUST LIKE MOTHER AND DAUGHTER. I HOPE IT IS A JOB SOMEWHERE ELSE THAT IF SHE WANTS TO RETURN THEY CAN BRING HER BACK
Must you shout????
Jude is trying to assist the hearing impaired.
That really sucks , she is a staple of the show , come on y and r , what r u doing?
I think she will go to a branch of her company in Europe.
Wow this is sad news, I love miss Ashley Abbott. Eileen will missed. Will they recast?
Y&R is going downhill, who will be leaving next.
Rumours are Eileen wanted a pay raise, wow this is the worse news ever.
Will be sorry to see you go. Have followed you for a long time. Can’t wait to see what’s next for you.
Going to miss her. I have been a fan since she started on Y&R. I hope this doesn’t mean the end of the Abbott family. Jack is already claiming the Chancellor name and Tracy is hardly there. I noticed lately that Eileen’s screen time has diminished in the past few weeks. A sign of things to come, I guess?
Very SAD news…I love Eileen Davidson ever since she has arrived at Y&R…such a beautiful and classy lady…Eileen, you will be missed and I wish you nothing but the best in the future…
She us with Newman Ent and today Victoria offered her the door if she wanted to go and avoid the scam. So she just might. Just walk out with her head up high
This is sad news. I’ve always thought Davidson and Ashley Abbott were huge assets to the show. Davidson will always be my favorite actress to play Ashley. However, with her choosing to leave, I would hate to see Ashley go as well. Jack is never as compelling a character without Ashley around. I would welcome the return of Brenda Epperson to the part. Epperson did a great job in a tough situation — taking over as Ashley went Epperson quit in the late 80s.
If she’s leaving Y&R, then shouldn’t she be going to Salem…. instead of some random recast?
He will do fine!! I hope he can find a role that finally suits his gender!! Seeing him play a women for 36 years is getting a bit tiresome. Lol.
Lord…..that is such an old, made-up, out of left field rumor. If it were true, more power to her because she is one of the most in demand actresses of daytime!
What a nasty, uncalled for comment.
Eileen is one of the most beautiful and talented women in daytime or primetime.
Guess I’ll be tuning out of Y & R. Eileen is the only reason I watch the show. TPTB have not given her a substantial storyline in ages. Yes, she is a part of The Abbott family and their storyline(s), Dina’s storyline, and Jabot; but, she hasn’t had a love interest in YEARS. & I didn’t care for the “Graham” storyline.
While I’ll miss seeing Eileen on Y&R, I am in complete support of her leaving a show that only rarely gives her decent material. It’s been 4 years of arcs that never really get off the ground, so it’s time for a change. I don’t know how Ashley will leave, but I wish Eileen the best of luck in the future.
Yeah, Eileen jumped the shark when you cheapened herself by doing the Housewives show. Regardless, she has not been featured on Y&R in years so the loss doesnt shake me.
The character has not had chemistry with anyone since she came back Ashley has turned into a shrill spinster can’t believe she got a Emmy for that this year ugh! Beth Maitland acts rings around her ! Goodbye
I hope they recast her. If they can recast Billy and Adam they can recast Ashley.

Constance Towers Returns To GH As Helena Cassadine … But Just How Does She Appear?
Now, any General Hospital fan knows that if there is skullduggery and evil going down, Helena Cassadine (whether dead or alive) is usually somehow involved when it comes to the lives of certain people in Port Charles.
And … some major storyline news from TV Line reveals that on next Monday’s August 19th episode of the ABC soap opera, Constance Towers reprises her role as the evil one herself … Helena!
Apparently, look for Helena to appear in a flashback with none other than Shiloh (Coby Ryan McLaughlin) and about Drew Cain’s time in Afghanistan. That scene might hold a key to just what Shiloh wants now that he has implanted Drew’s memories into Franco (Roget Howath), thanks to Dr. Cabot’s work. But could what is revealed also relate to the story that will see Billy Miller (Drew) exit the canvas later this month? Stay tuned.
Viewers last saw Helena alive in story until November of 2016, but then she was part of Jake’s hallucinations that were a part of the chimera storyline that climaxed at the Nurses’ Ball back in May of 2017.
So what do you think Helena’s presence in a flashback will reveal? And, who is ultimately having that flashback? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.

Daytime Emmys To Merge Younger Actor & Actress Category Into One As Gender-Inclusive Categories Are On The Rise
The upcoming 47th annual Daytime Emmys are already making some changes to key categories and specifically this one that affects daytime drama performers. Word from Variety is that NATAS (National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences) is going to announce that they are combining the Younger Actor and Actress categories into one gender-neutral category
Not only will the Younger performer category be gender-inclusive, but network soap performances will be combined with digital drama series performances for the category. Previously, for this past Daytime Emmys, NATAS had changed the Guest Performer in a Drama Series to be gender-inclusive.
This category was initially created in 1985 when it was called the Outstanding Ingenue and then from there tweaked into Outstanding Juvenile Female and Male, and more recently that morphed into the Younger Actor and Actress categories.

Former GH star Hayley Erin (Ex-Kiki) and former DAYS star, Kyle Pettis (Ex-Theo) will now be the last female and male to win the two separate categories with this new move for 2020.
Fans of film and TV have noticed that on several award shows on MTV: their Movie and TV Awards and their VMA’s, there are several gender-inclusive categories, as well as the Television Critics Association Awards who for instance doles out Outstanding Individual Achievement in Drama in comedy.
So, what do you think of the change; that there will now be one Younger performer category at the Daytime Emmys? Comment below.
