Boaz revealed the news via his Instagram stating: “I have a little news to share.  A few weeks ago, I tested positive for COVID 19. Thankfully, I did not have any symptoms. In following guidelines, I quarantined at home so you may not see me on Y&R for a bit. I’m happy to say I’ve returned to work and will be back on the air very soon. Thank you for your continued support.”

The Young and the Restless Tracey E. Bregman (Lauren Fenmore Baldwin) posted an inspirational message on Monday on her Instagram account as today, November 9th, marked the two-year anniversary of the day her beautiful Malibu home falling victim and being engulfed in flames due to the Woolsey Fire, one of the major wildfires spreading in the state of California and in Southern California at that time.

Bregman expressed: “Today, Mark’s two years where everything changed. Yes, the loss of my home and my friends homes has been Devastating and So many precious things lost, I still go to reach for something and realize it is gone. As you know, I look for the good in everything or try to. So many beautiful silver linings, people met and journey’s started and friends who truly showed me the true meaning of friendship because of this experience. We may all be rebuilding (i hope for me soon)but this bonding experience will always be with us. I am forever grateful for the Fire fighters and to our community who stepped up to help all of us and to our neighbors that showed up in such extraordinary ways. You are our heroes forever #malibustrong #onelovemalibu #woolseyfire”
