Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun Written Out of The Young and the Restless

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 Says She Will Return to ‘The View’ During its Season 30

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.

I love Bo and Nora, this is awesome news!!!
Honestly! Who wants a brand new family, when OLTL had a beautiful new family in the making – aka KISHIERRA – but decided to throw her overboard…
I thought 6 weeks after the KISH KILL my anger would have lessened, but not so.
#ABCFail all over again!
YEAH! Bo and Nora are THE BEST of THE BEST!
So OLTL got rid of Kish (and the Kishierra family) for budget reasons (or “because they didn’t resonate with mainstream” reasons, or whatever reason they have this week for axing Kish), but now they all of a sudden have the money to bring on a whole new family, not to mention several newbies that have been added recently after Scott, Brett, SC, Daphne Duplaix, etc. were unceremoneously DUMPED by OLTL! I totally agree …… who in the hell wants another brand new family in Llanview when they had one of the most beautiful families they could have ever wanted with Kish and Sierra, but decided to run them out of town (and lost thousands of viewers in doing so).
I guess they didn’t “fit the mold” to live in bigoted KLANVIEW so they tossed them away like yesterday’s garbage. Too bad too, because Oliver looked 100% better in his police uniform than Brody does, and Kyle looked 100% better in his doctor’s coat than Greg does. AND, nobody on the show even comes close to being as cute as little Sierra Rose. Yes, OLTL tossed away the most beautiful family they could ever hope to have on the show. SOOOOOO MUCH POTENTIAL THERE.
As far as I am concerned, KLANVIEW can have its 2-time rapist, Ford-ho, Langston-ho, shacked-up teens, illegitimate babies, incestuous relationships, 30+ year-old “teenage” wannabe, whiney pathetic Marty, pathetically horrendous Gigi (the bimbo with no talent at all), and her chosen one, WRECKS, the former son of Roxy who is now just a human spud conceived via Emmaculate Conception and has no parents, etc, etc.
What I wonder is, what’s next for Klanview? Will Cris make Layla ride in the back of the LIMO when they go to the prom together? Will Layla have to drink from the water fountain designated for “blacks only” at school. Will Layla even be allowed to participate in the same activities as the white kids at the prom or even be allowed to dance next to the white kids?
How much you wanna bet that new family coming to Klanview will be LILY WHITE and totally HETEROSEXUAL!!
Yes, I am a middle-aged, white, heterosexual married female and I want my gay couple (Kish) back and more ethnic diversity on the show! As far as Gigi goes, she should just go back to McDonald’s and flip hamburgers for a living because she is no actress and is about as interesting as watching paint dry. JMHO
