One of our dearest friends and colleagues, The Young and the Restless Jeanne Cooper (Katherine Chancellor) last night was admitted to a Los Angeles Hospital Intensive Care Unit. Cooper is currently in critical condition but said to be stable this morning according to updates from her son, actor Corbin Bernsen and Jeanne’s Y&R co-stars, Daniel Goddard (Cane) and Tracey E. Bregman (Lauren) who both tweeted that they visited Jeanne in the hospital.

There has been an huge outpouring of love and prayers started all across the daytime community for Jeanne from cast mates, to fans, to colleagues. Corbin posted on Twitter the following in the last 24 hours with the last update 40 minutes ago, “Need some prayers for my mom tonight. Not doing great. I don’t believe it is the end of her journey, but still a very uphill battle. Kindness from all is overwhelming me. The power of your prayers is working in many ways and for now, this nite, I think all is stable. All still stable this morn with morning, such a fighter. So many have noted that. Your prayers are powerful and kind words overwhelming. Had a dream last night, inspired by your outpouring of love that my mom returns from this, stronger than ever, defying all possible reason.”

Daniel Goddard tweeted this morning, “JeanneCooper is still in ICU and is stable yet sedated.”

UPDATED: This evening – Corbin Bernsen took to his facebook page with the latest update on Jeanne’s condition relating, “Just home from hospital, pretty exhausting day, emotional roller coaster of moments of progress, moments backwards, but all in all MUCH better than 24 hours ago. Still so much to accomplish and a great task for someone of advanced age, but she’s doing it – a remarkable fighter. Of course this made me drift to thoughts about life, our greater purpose and the strange harmony of the polar components of our very existence; the pain – the pleasure, the joy – the sorrow, the strength – frailty. One can’t exist without the other. I have so much faith that my mom will get beyond this, honestly, and perhaps be even stronger than she’s been in recent years… I mean, they are sourcing EVERYTHING that is not right with her and strengthening that. But for now she’s resting comfortably, and we too are taking time to rest and reflect and prepare for tomorrow’s piece of the journey. Please keep up the prayers, they are doing WONDERS and I know she’d want you to tell those you love, how much you love them.

Jeanne Cooper’s best-selling memoir, Not Young Still Restless is slated to come out in paperback this week at all book store. On-Air On-Soaps will keep you update on the latest developments with Jeanne, as we send love, light and our prayers to Jeanne, one of the most special people we have ever known in our lives!

B&B’s Annika Noelle Shares Her Heartache on Pregnancy Loss

October 13, 2021

In a very well-written and touching essay written by The Bold and the Beautiful’s Annika Noelle (Hope), herself, the actress shares with the readers details of two miscarriages that she had not publicly revealed until this time.

In her story for Glamour entitled, “Losing a Child in the Limelight”, Noelle shares the heartache and pain of losing a child while filming the demands of a soap opera, and especially Hope’s storyline which for months featured so much emotion and so many tears after the baby loss storyline on-air she was the vehicle in which to tell the tale.

However in real life, Noelle was going through something as well. Annika reveals how she and her fiancé found out she was pregnant, and then 10 weeks later she lost the baby. When they tried again, she lost the baby at 8 weeks.

In an excerpt, Annika expressed about keeping her pain private while working on the soap: “Fans and news articles speculated whether I was pregnant or just gained weight during quarantine. And once again the storyline called for ceaseless tears when I felt like I had no more to give. I guess looking back at it now, I was scared to jinx anything. I didn’t want people to know and have things not work out. And yet I wish I had because I would have given anything to have the understanding and support of the cast and crew. I felt so alone. The secret was isolating, yet the shame was debilitating. I felt like I had failed at something that should be easy. But as time marched on, I was surprised by a new feeling bubbling underneath the sorrow: an ancestral rage toward the burden of womanhood. And as I slowly began to open up about my loss to a select few, I was shocked by how many people had experienced it as well.”

In the end, Annika shares: “Anyone who follows me on social media can tell you I’m a deeply private person. But if there is one thing I’ve gained from my loss, it is a voice I’m no longer afraid to use.”

Make sure to read Annika’s moving article in full, then let us know in the comment section what you thought of it.
