Photo Credit: HutchinsPhoto.com
It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since the controversial death of Chloe and Billy’s daughter Delia! The storyline brought Emmy winning and Emmy nominated performances to the forefront for Billy Miller (Ex-Billy, now Jason GH), Amelia Heinle (Victoria) and Elizabeth Hendrickson (Chloe)!
Now as previewed at the end of today’s Y&R, Chloe returns to Genoa City on the one-year anniversary of the death of her little girl, which also means a brief return for Liz Hendrickson who departed the series earlier this year at the end of May.
Y&R also tweeted today: “Familiar face comes home on tomorrow’s Y&R!”
So what are your thoughts at it being one year since the game-changing storyline? Happy to see Elizabeth back on-screen even for this sad occasion? Watch the preview for tomorrow’s Y&R after the jump! Then share your thoughts!
I am glad to see Elizabeth come back as Chloe to remember Delia. I have also missed Ms. Hendrickson being on #YR, wish her stay was permanent.
I have been missing Guiding Light so badly lately, anyone else?
yes Mark I miss Guiding Light too, Reva Josh Dinah and so on. I hope Kim Zimmer lands on General hospital or Young and The Restless, I miss Kim so much.
Bite your tongue to Kim Zimmer appearing on any of the four soaps.
Thats great news, Elizabeth did not renew her contract. So she left the show, she will get alot of prime time offers as a guest or a series. I wish Elizabeth the best of luck. It will be nice to see Chloe for one day on The Young and The Restless.
ohh noo!
If I have to go through a decade of celebrating a child’s death as Cassies (OVERKILL use of a dead child for ratings 7 times a year for a decade(not including Sharons 100000 grave visit speeches) .. …………………..I will have to get very mean over it..
Lets pay homage and then let poor Delia RIP..
and not be used for ratings and to depress everyone!!
“…I will have to get very mean over it..”
I hope you do
LOL
I couldn’t agree more…. it’s more than beside myself… how “celebrated” Cassie became
I was never in to Cassie when she was alive
Delia is another ball of wax
she was Billy, Chloe, and Victoria
so… that’s a big deal
that being said… since, only victoria remains
I don’t see the reason after year one to go their
unless…. Y&R production will MILK every one
Delia death will forever resonate as the story that mindlessly catapulted Y&R to WIN best serial….. I digress
DAYS should have repeated 2 years in a row
YEAR 2013 should have gone down as the year, EVERY THING, changed
spiral
out of our control
RIP
as much as I love ED and KS… that’s Kelly Sullivan
I don’t see a safety net for survive
even Peter Bergman… didn’t look or act himself… as he was telling nuPhyllis… god, how I loved you…. life moved on… etc….
hopefully, Nikki supplants and carries some thing
we can all forget about Victor
we’ve moved on
I do think about Victoria… what will Kelly Sullivan bring to the canvas…. unless they bring in an equal pairing for ED… Ashley….
????
fact
Genoa City is dire … I can barely muster stimuli
OK that’s mean with
I really like Kelly Sullivan..
I doubt I will FF. here.
Then again-
Y&R may waste her as they did the great Tristan Rogers..
You are correct;
”Genoa City is dire … I can barely muster stimuli”
Kelly Sullivan is a great actress. I agree with you su0000, I hope they dont waster her like Tristan. Thankfully him and Jill are not on a lot. Sad, they are both talented but written horribly. Tristan’s character is slime and thats not who he should portray. He should have been a Tucker McCall recast and running the Chancellor Estate. I know Tucker is not a choir boy but he has redeeming values, charm, and he is Katherine’s son. Its really a shame that the chancellor name is dead on that show right now.
It will be super to see Elizabeth back on the program, she is such an accomplished actor I have missed her
a lot any chance she may come back I hope so !
Welcome Elizabeth! Can you please stay?
I have always despised Y&R writers for killing children..
AND then to use their deaths as a drama tool, to bring the tragedy back to be relieved (Cassie for a decade) and for us to have to watch all the heartache, sadness and crying dead child drama, to depress most all again…
Other soaps have had children killed and they let it go and did not kill them to prosper off their deaths for decades for ratings by celebrating their deaths after they killed them…. lol
Y&R kills children and then uses their death for years after for ratings… shameful..
That is the reason I will not be watching this particular episode, Su.
I do welcome Elizabeth back…..I do hope she stays for good, however, not like this.
I agree with you. TPTB should leave well enough alone. Delia’s demise was cruel and I purposely skipped the few episodes in the aftermath of her death….too close to my heart.
Your right CeeCee, they should have left it alone. Killing a child to me is lazy writing and upsetting. Recently on GH they reintroduced the character of Jason played by the great Billy Miller. If you dont watch, they had who you thought was Steve Burton hit by a car and then they showed Billy Miller in the hospital all bandaged up to bring him on the show with the character getting a new face. Well, he is an adult and having that character literally run over by a car and showing it was gut wrenching. Again, this is an adult. Thats why Y&R having Dee Dee get run over by a car, even though it wasnt shown, bothered me so much. Children just are not suppose to die, let alone be brutally murdered. This will not die. [Excuse the pun] When Adam comes back this whole story will be rehashed!
Absolutely, it will be rehashed, Timmm. It’s unfinished business….it will be reintroduced because Adam, I would think, is still haunted by Delia’s death.
So, we will relive it through him. I will be missing more episodes.
Damn girll, LOL..You really must work for ABC daytime and/or are a GH public relations on the net executive, because your hatred for Y&R speaks volumes!!
I stop watching Y&R for months due to the lack of storyline entertainment..I been tuning in lately and its getting better.
ALL soaps over the years have recycle children’s death here and there, so what makes Y&R different!?? AND its only been a year since the death of the child.
Killing off children on soaps is common, terrible, sad and it brings lots of drama and strong performances by the actors in play..Stop picking on Y&R for doing what dozens soaps have done over the last few decades.
Omar..
I do not hate Y&R..
I am so disappointed and frustrated at how it has become empty of all that once made it great..
Even the opening credit showing who they perceive to be the ‘stars’.. is also very disappointing..
It is hard for me to love what is no more, and it is very disappointing and damned sad ..
They let Y&r fail.. it is stagnate with over year long stories that still have no end..
there is no great drama, just low key dagging on’s.. it is stagnate..
And– I hate it has become that way !!! It makes me mad !!!
It lost 3 core great actors because of junk going on..
I cannot argue with that, Omar. However, there is always a different perspective to be had, depending on the viewer. Yes, children die in real life….so, every time this happens on a soap or the news,or any TV show, it is relived….the wound opens even more….never actually heals.
So, I cowardly bury my head in the sand.
Losing a child is the most devastating and paralyzingly pain one can ever experience.
So, I choose not to watch.
And, to elaborate, Omar, Y&R is getting much, much better. I love Y&R….always have. I’ve been watching this soap the longest. I never stopped watching even when it seemed that it was going down the drain…..I will not watch just the few upcoming scenes about little Delia.
su0000, EVERY story line on a TV show is “used for ratings.” Um, the whole point is to bring in viewers with gripping stories. I’m with you — I don’t enjoy reliving horrible tragedies such as the death of a child — but every TV show uses every trick they can to boost ratings. It’s not like Y&R is exploiting the death of a real child… it’s just a story.
Y&R used Cassie’s death at the least 7 times a year for a decade, without fail..
That is way over overkill exploiting a dead child for ratings, or to use for sadness drama..
Y&R is infamous for death or near death drama, I do like that..
I watch Y&R, not a lot i need FF a lot..
But always with hope it will change and once again be great..
I hope Pratt turns Y&R inside out.. it needs it..
I completely agree.
GH would still do it with B.J. and Jake if B.J.’s parents were still alive, if Lucky were still on the show, and if Jason realized it was his kid not his name.
so chloes sporting a new baby in the oven,
Really? She’s pregnant? I wonder if it’s Kevin’s…..and if she’s expecting in real life.
I think its Billy’s remember she stole his sperm from the lab. [Only on Soaps!] I think this is how he will cope since it looks like Stitch will be the father of Vic’s baby.
That’s right, Timmm. I had forgotten about that.
She wanted to duplicate little Delia. Thanks for the reminder.
It was lovely to see Liz back today. It was about time she had a heart to heart with Kevin. I was surprised that she wouldn’t even let her hug him, but the reason was shown at the end of the episode. Looking forward to more appearances by her and the juicy storyline sure to come her way.
Good to see Liz but I would rather she play Robin on GH.
Hey…as brief as it is, I’m glad that Chloe is back…even if it’s just for a short visit. Yes.
as long as they show her minimally in a scene with her mother…. Esther
now, that’s history
Can’t wait to see her.
Not looking forward to nuBilly drone on about kid he never knew.
From what I hear happens at the end of the episode means they are laying the ground work for a return. Has the actress been doing anything since she left? Well she better hurry back because if everything I hear is true about Chuck Pratt this show will be dead by the end of 2015. I fast forward almost thru every storyline they are all dragging on forever. A new Billy and soon a new Adam makes the storyline hollow.
I never cared much for Chloe but for one day I guess it’s ok. Didn’t she leave to see what else was out there? Guess she found out and Y & R is looking better to her now.
I liked everything about the show today. I could not stop watching it. No ff for me today. I really like the new Billy and he did a wonderful acting job today. Where is Tristan? He is so good. Y&R is really getting so much better. The Jack, Kelly and Phyliss storyline is interesting also. Loved seeing Chloe today.
Was great to have Chloe back. Hope she returns
for good!
When she said good bye forever to Kevin she was going, moving on..was saying goodbye to Y&R, the way I saw it..
She was paid big bucks for the one scene return, she is done .. imo
Beyond the Gates
‘Beyond the Gates’ Emmy Winner Ambyr Michelle Wants to Compete on ‘Dancing with the Stars’: ‘Pick Me’ (Exclusive)
Soap opera fans are always clamoring for when Dancing with the Stars reveals their cast each season, that they would include a familiar face from daytime drama, but it rarely happens, if ever, anymore.
Over the last several years, the series has leaned heavily into casting celebrities with massive TikTok or Instagram followers, which in turn, have helped this season and last have their best ratings numbers in years.
But, how about for next season’s cast of Dancing with the Stars, that it could include newly-awarded Daytime Emmy winner, Ambyr Michelle (Eva Thomas) of Beyond the Gates?

LOVE OF DANCE TO LOVE OF ACTING
Michael Fairman TV spoke to Michelle about her dance background and if she would love a shot at lifting the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy during Wednesday’s November 11, livestream chat on the Michael Fairman Channel.
Ambyr explained to fans (who joined in on the live chat), how she began her show business career. “I started off as a dancer, first and foremost. Acting wasn’t really something I wanted to go after. I did plays when I was younger, but it was just something we did in school, but I really wanted to be a dancer. I moved out to LA to dance, and I fell out of love with dance, which was so weird.”
This year’s Emerging Talent in a Daytime Drama Series winner, added, “I was like, ‘What is going on?’ I moved all the way out here for dance. I found I was forcing myself to go to dance class, and I just didn’t have the passion for it. I was working at this restaurant at the time, and one of my coworker was like, ‘What about taking an acting class out here?'”
Next, Ambyr took the coworker up on the idea. “So, I took an acting class and I fell in love with it that day,” shared Michelle. “I was like, ‘I want to do this for the rest of my life.’ I thought, I would love to book a role, of course, as a dancer, but I think acting has a little bit more longevity.”

A SHOT AT THE LEN GOODMAN MIRRORBALL TROPHY
When the talked turned to if Ambyr would consider or be interested in appearing on the ballroom dance competition series, she piped up with, “I would love to do Dancing with the Stars! Pick me!”
As those in the live chat rallied around this idea, it made us think, Ambyr could be the first contestant from Beyond the Gates, and someone representing the soaps. It checks off so many boxes! To which Ambyr replied, “That would be beautiful.”
You can check out the full conversation with Ambyr below.
So, what do you think soap fans? Can we make sure Ambyr’s name gets in front of the producers and casting director for next season’s Dancing with the Stars? Would you like to see her in the competition? If so, who would be your dream pro professional dance partner for her? Let us know in the comment section.
The latest ratings are out for the week of October 26-30, 2026 and the big takeaways include: that CBS daytime’s Beyond the Gates was separated by only 23,000 viewers behind third place (of the soaps) General Hospital! For the last several weeks, Beyond the Gates has been closing the gap on this year’s winner for Outstanding Daytime Drama Series, and continuing to best GH in the key demos.
According to the latest Nielsen ratings breakdown from Soap Opera Network, the final week of October brought Beyond the Gates 1.790 million on average tuning-in and the show set a season high in total viewers. Meanwhile, General Hospital hit a new season low! The long-running ABC soap had 1.813 million for the week, and once again the series did not go over the 2 million mark.
Meanwhile, in the key Women 18-49 demo, Beyond the Gates was firmly ahead of GH with a rating share of 0.21, while General Hospital had 0.17 rating share.Then, in the key Women 25-54 demo, Beyond the Gates was once again ahead of the ABC soap with a ratings share for that demo at 0.30 while GH came in with 0.26.

MORE BY THE NUMBERS
In addition and comparatively, Beyond the Gates +22,000 viewers week-to-week, and had the largest gains in viewership year-to-year in daytime TV with +267,000 from this in 2025.. However, General Hospital seems to be going in reverse. The show was down -56,000 viewers week-over-week and down -22,000 year-over-year .
BEYOND THE GATES
Let’s take a look at some of the storylines that had people tuning-in to Beyond the Gates during the ratings week:
Hayley (Marquita Goings) attempted a massive shocker regarding her pregnancy and tried to use it to extract money from Bill Hamilton (Timon Kyle Durrett). Although, Bill saw right through her game, he demanded a paternity test, and made it clear he has no intention of raising the child—planning instead to pay her off to take the baby and leave. Meanwhile, Hayley confided her plan to her cousin Randy (Maurice P. Kerry).
Jacob Hawthorne (Jibre Hordges) and Naomi Hamilton (Arielle Prepetit) clashed over Jacob’s ongoing investigation into The Impaler, causing significant strain in their marriage. At the same time, Smitty (Mike Manning) considered taking matters into his own hands—including potentially heading to Mexico for evidence—while Martin Richardson (Brandon Claybon) worried about what comes next.

GENERAL HOSPITAL
Over at General Hospital for the ratings period, the story served up included:
Carly (Laura Wright) and Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) teamed up to investigate what really happened to Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna). Later, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) leads them to Jack’s dead body.
Jude (Wil Traval) dropped a bombshell claim to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn); that he is Phoebe’s father, while Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) and Chase (Josh Swickard) signed their divorce papers.
Then, Danny caught Rocco (Finn Carr) and Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski) sharing a kiss, plus the shocking return of Heather Webber (Alley Mills) capped the week.
Now the questions become; without having much promotional synergy in the ABC day-part to draw more eyeballs it is not helping but hurting General Hospital. It seems Beyond the Gates is also a benefactor of a one-two-three punch of CBS soaps (Y&R, B&B and BTG) and promotion.
However, that still doesn’t take away the fact that Beyond the Gates is close to besting GH in all ratings category as they go head-to-head in some markets across the country.
So, are you excited to see Beyond the Gates climb in the ratings? Are you concerned for General Hospital? Do you think they can stave off Beyond the Gates in total viewers or will the upstart soap overtake them in the next ratings report? Share your thoughts in the comment section.
Antonio Sabáto Jr., the former Jagger Cates of General Hospital and GH: Night Shift, and the former Dante Damiano of The Bold and the Beautiful has issued his first public statement since the incident involving his son, Jack’s arrest in Alaska for a fatal hit-and-run.
Jack is the son of Sabáto Jr. and Oscar-nominated actress Virginia Madsen, and according to court documents obtained by KTUU Jack, was allegedly driving a white Chevy Tahoe when he hit and killed Carl Simmonds, 42, near an intersection in Anchorage around 5:35 a.m. on Monday, November 9.
The reports indicated that Jack fled the scene — but later decided to called the cops to say he hit “something” that “suddenly appeared in the road” while he was “doing late-night DoorDashing.”

Now, Antonio has taken to his Instagram breaking his silence on the situation, sharing, “At this time, my family and I are navigating an extremely sensitive and deeply personal matter.”
He added, “As a father, my love for my children remains unconditional, and my priority is the well-being of my family. We ask that the public and members of the media honor our privacy during this difficult time and keep us all in your thoughts and prayers.”
The soap alum concluded, “I also wish to extend my heartfelt condolences to the family and loved ones of the gentleman who tragically lost his life. My thoughts and prayers are with them as well. We sincerely appreciate your compassion, understanding, and respect for the privacy of everyone affected.”
Jack Sabáto was arraigned in court on Tuesday, November 10 with bail set at $5,000, and a no-driving order and the potential of $5,000 penalty fees if he fails to attend future court appearances.
Antonio is the father to Jack, 34, daughter, Mina Sabato, 24 and son, Antonio Sabáto III, 15.
This is a developing story. You can check out Antonio’s official statement below.
