Since returning to "The Young and the Restless," Daniel Romalotti has been flying solo without his family by his side, but according to Soaps, his family is making their grand arrival in Genoa City. The daytime soap is bringing back former "Vanderpump Rules" star Vail Bloom to the role she vacated over a decade ago. Her return to Daniel's life is the perfect wrinkle in what appears to be his destined reunion with ex-wife Lily Winters. Daniel and Lily have spent a lot of time together, helping each other through various personal challenges, so Heather's arrival will likely impact that.
In addition to Heather's return is the arrival of the rapidly aged Lucy, Daniel's daughter and granddaughter of "Bold and the Beautiful" villain Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown). There hasn't been a significant young actor present on the show since the departures of Faith Newman (Reylynn Caster) and Moses Winters (Jacob Aaron Gaines), but that may change now.
Fans have voiced their excitement about the returns, specifically the decision to place Bloom back in the role. One viewer tweeted, "Thank you #YR for not recasting the role of Heather Stevens and bring[ing] back the original Actor Vail Bloom in [the] role. I'm very appreciative [of] you for doing that." Another fan said, "Vail Bloom is my favorite Heather. She's a star. So talented and gorgeous ... I'll check out clips elsewhere just for her."
