The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers reveal that many fans are over the moon that Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) is returning to the show for the soap’s 13,000 special episode.
The actress revealed she was going to be a part of the big celebration on social media in early October, and Y&R viewers have been buzzing about her comeback.
While some fans speculated her return could involve Devon Hamilton-Winters (Bryton James), a recently released behind-the-scenes photo could hint otherwise.
Of course, as Y&R is gearing up for its 13,000th episode, which is set to air on Wednesday, November 13, a recently released photo of the cast celebrating the big show has been dropped.
The pic seemingly highlights all the actresses and actors taking part in the big show, from cast regulars like Peter Bergman (Jack Abbott), Melody Thomas Scott (Nikki Newman), and Joshua Morrow (Nick Newman) – just to name a few.
In addition, there are surprising faces like Veronica Redd (Mamie Johnson), and Vail Bloom (Heather Stevens) in the photo.
The children of Genoa City are well represented as Judah Mackey (Connor Newman) and Redding Munsell (Harrison Abbott), among other offspring, are within the photo, too.
Of course, Sarpy and Sean Dominic are in the 13,000th episode photo as well, somewhat side by side, with a new cute little face in the arms of Dominic.
As this photo is ONLY Y&R cast, this has led to some social media speculation.
X user, @yogachampagne posted the photo on her handle, and commented that a Reddit user zeroed in on the pic.
Dominic is definitely holding a little one, and it’s not likely a real-life loved one or family member.
Could Elena’s return to GC center around a baby reveal? It’s been a hot minute since fans have seen her in the little town.
Y&R viewers may question the dates lining up to when Elena could’ve gotten pregnant by Nate and the last time fans saw her.
While they may, or may not, add up, this is the land of soaps where anything is possible.
As fans know, Elena and Nate broke up after he had an affair on her with Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) in early 2023.
Fans last saw Elena in the summer of 2023 when she gave Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) and Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) the bad news that their baby, Ava Hope Newman, had passed away.
Elena could very well have been pregnant at the time of this, and simply not told a soul. Due to her doctor’s coat and her body type, it’s possible she had been hiding it all along.
Elena’s name hasn’t been mentioned that much in storylines since, so it’s possible that she did skip town after all this for a fresh new chapter.
Then again, there’s been wild speculation that Elena was behind a bigger plot that saw her steal Ally’s baby – for whatever reason. Could the child be Baby Ava?
The Young and the Restless spoilers note massive plot twists on the horizon as November sweeps month, sweeps through Genoa City. Fans will have to tune in to see how all this unfolds.
