Michael Mealor Back on Contract at Y&R
With the return of Kyle Abbott’s biological mother, Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) to the canvas, looks like The Young and the Restless has a big story planned, and now comes words that popular actor Michael Mealor will also be returning to the top-rated soap opera as Diane and Jack’s (Peter Bergman) son.
According to a report in the latest Soap Opera Digest, Mealor is returning to the role and will be back on contract.
Skyle fans were upset recently when both Mealor and Hunter King (Summer) were written off the show and since then had made a few recurring appearances.
Viewers last saw Mealor and King during Victoria and Ashland’s nuptials in 2021.
No word yet on when Michael will first air under his new contract with the CBS daytime drama series.
So, excited to know Kyle will be back as played by Mealor? Let us know in the comment section below.
YEAH!!! Welcome back!
Yayyyyy!
Love Michael Mealor as Kyle, very missed. He really is a young future leading man.
I ‘d love for him to become buddies with the new Noah. My dream would be for Summer to stay in Milan with Marchetti and for Lola to return from Miami and the two to rekindle the romance which was so pure and innocent! If the original can’t come back because she’s made it big in movies recast her.
Can’t wait for Michael and Susan Walters to mix it up , she’s my favorite Diane.
Loved Kola! They have a star in the universe. Would enjoy seeing the Rosales family return. And if Y and R insists on keeping Phyllis, then bring back Avery and Daniel (and his child), etc. No need for any new characters. Develop the GC residents that already exist.
“…Loved Kola! They have a star in the universe. …” so beautiful
Loved Avery, such a good actress! I think Avery and Adam would be interesting. Especially given she s Phyllis’s sister she could easily mix it up with Nick, Sharon and cause a stir. Instead fit Sally in with Noah. Mariah and Tessa can get married, adopt a kid and ride off into the sunset.
Damien, I love your idea about Kyle and Noah. This show is sorely in need of a bromance. GH has several: Drew & Curtis, Jason & Spinelli, Jason & Sonny, Brando & T.J. since they reconciled. Mature male friendships are always welcome. Especially when both are nice people and drop dead gorgeous.
Exactly: ^^^ “… He really is a young future leading man ” i remember the day when that torch, ala jack Abbott and Victor newman, once upon a time : coulda woulda shoulda , passed the torch on to : just the most sterling twosome couple’ Amelia Heinle and Billy Miller , OH GOD! was this divine stuff ! Victoria and Billy . thru the ROOF , just drove. AND without doubt, along side with; Michael Muhney and the oh so lovely Sharon Case. Adam and Sharon… OOH LA LA the heart beat for every thing these two couple. DREAM a little DREAM. oh my heart loved Y&R. any way –
it’s fitting to see this young man… who is so “right on” not wanting to gush AND laud too much… ” I LOVE HIM ” to pieces !!!! his Abbott catch, run on all cylinder . Jack Abbott SON… now this was key and so missing. for this reason.. he’s a key element to the Abbott family tree… would John Sr. beam, right along.. as dad can rest his laurel’ FAMILY COMPLETE … like a post shared… FOR MS. TRACI… i’d distend belief… just to give her a child of her own… and living in Genoa City… do Traci and Ashley NEED romance… SURE , if they were living in Genoa… a post shared… Eileen Davidson AND Robert Newman… WOWSAH YIKES and STERLING gotcha. any way… heart thump for Kyle
Abbott reign some thing
Great news! Someone young and restless on the show, lol.
FUN’ny – you have no idea how true that is !!!! he’s a smolder, heart race, AND your eyes keep up. YES !
Yes! So glad he’s back. Terrific actor and so great to look at as well. Looking forward to this!
Smart move he’s the one and only Kyle
I think this is good news, but no Summer or Harrison? The show needs Kyle. While it is good to see the Abbott family revived, I am again incensed for all the boneheaded decisions made in the oughts… Tracie losing her daughter. Brad’s death. Diane’s now supposed (WTF? Is thIs this General Hospital or Days of Our Lives?) death. No connection to Keemo until now after his death. (Really?) Am happy Abby has a child that is biologically hers. I’d like to see Ashley and/or Tracie have a romance. The actors on this show are strong. Might we craft stories as strong? Am tired of the misfires… Amanda’s family, Ashland Locke, the Rosales family, Chelsea fak g paralysis… Here’s hoping!
Ashley and Ashland could very easily be a great screen couple ultimately, but the major problem is that both of their names begin with Ash.
Ashland needs to go.
So right, lakovos. This Diane resurrected tale is, for me, the worst of the admittedly bad stories you mentioned. Who cares about these people? Still no Kevin, Gloria, minimal Traci, Jill, Ashley, and Lauren; Noah made a good start and is already in stasis; Devon is on air nearly every day and in too many stories; Billy’s “soul bearing” pseudo new-age drivel is worse than most junior high school poetry; Victoria took way too long to accept the Ashland reveal. Now we’re gonna be treated to Rey and Chelsea — will it be Chey or Relsea? Ugh! 2022 isn’t looking too promising.
“ Soul bearing, pseudo, new- age drivel”? I LOVE it! Billy engages in constant navel gazing and seems to think his obsession with his own navel is as exciting for everyone else as it is for him.
Harry
This crap with Billy has got to be the worst SL they’ve ever done. I record my shows so thank God for FF. I almost feel sorry for him, not Billy but the actor.
Chelsea was written to such lows, I cannot accept any redemption. Let her go. Rey is a good character but there is nothing for him to do. Sadly, the botched Rosales family integration left the character with nothing.
Wallah… Rey and Chelsea… i saw a photo shoot of this winsome twosome together extraordinaire … SHOOT
Patrick
They kind of deserve each other, don’t they? Maybe Chelsea will light a fire under Rey, igniting something he didn’t know was there, thanks to Sharon, who seems like a dud.I think Adam was the only one that could light her fuse!
I got a little too endearing… I saw pics of them together… and thought… THIS COULD WORK… because I like Rey… just because he stunk with Sharon… don’t let Rey take ALL the blame. Now we have , from out of nowhere… !!!! whodathunk? Adam actually looks sexy masculine with Sally ? She’s a phenom in the making… I love how her ex-cast member (Jacob young ), touts her… they (B&B) NEVER gave her the time of day… so here she is… even I like her… VA VA VOOM… move over Phyllis… Sally has arrived
I was looking forward to Rey and Chelsea! What a good looking couple!
Figures?
I am very happy to hear that…good luck..I really missed you and Summer, wished she would come back as well, they made such a wonderful couple….
You really need to bring Summer back or at least have her on screen again from Milan.
Glad he’s coming back, but what about Summer and Harrison? Would love to see some scenes with Kyle blasting Ashland for lying about the cancer and him telling Harrison he was sick.
So excited for this new story line!
I’m looking for a recast of Summer- it needs to happen.
I doubt Hunter will return..
and the Keemo guy, I as many, have no nothing as to him..
It would be nice to have some flashbacks to see who he was.
So- Jack has his old ex back- is she his age?
it would be good to see Jack with a woman his age=65-70?
Anyways- something tells me this story will be a sleeper.
Anything involving the snore Jack will be a snore — lol
So glad Michael Mealor will be back in G.C as Kyle. I can’t wait to see who will be playing new Summer. A new wife and mother all in one shot. How lucky can one guy be?
