Congratulations, Mishael Morgan (Hilary) on her and her husband’s first pregnancy. Despite this playing perfectly into Devon and Neil’s ongoing storyline, TPTB will not touch the pregnancy. Morgan and her husband will have a shower and reveal ceremony this month in Toronto, where they find out if it’s a boy or girl (expected by August).

Chris L. McKenna (Lt. Mark Harding) reprises his hardass cop role, on-screen by June 2.

Sofia Pernas takes on the new, recurring part of Marisa, as of June 1.

Gossip for the week of 04-May-2015

Cady McClain (Kelly) wrote perhaps one of the most honest, vulnerable expressions as a human being and an artist ever on her Facebook, April 28. People are reading into it as a scripted departure, as well as the actress’s dissatisfaction with her character going bonkers like this. She admitted that it was not easy for her the past few weeks, it was intense, but it is worth watching. Here’s an excerpt:

>> I'm glad to occasionally be given the opportunity to entertain you, whether it's on Y&R or elsewhere. And if you love the character or hate her, it's all good. Maybe just don't tag me when you hate on her, please, because my work means something to me. I hold the characters I get to create close to my heart. Maybe that's "over-sensitive" of me but I don't know how else to be without turning into a hard woman. And I'm already tougher than I want to be….

As for comments and stuff: it's a free country. I don't want to tell you how to feel or try and control how you act on social media, but please try and remember I'm a real, live, human being on the other end of some of those unfriendly comments. That's all. Just please try and remember that. Because I do. I know you're all real, live human beings. That's why I have never passed on my social media to a company or even a PR person. It's always me. Always. Maybe that's foolish but I enjoy the connection. If there's one thing I understand, it's loneliness.

Believe it or not, I really do….

As for me, the actor, the person who plays "Kelly," I feel like I have a broken heart. Is that because I'm too close to "Kelly" or too close to my work? Do I care too much? Maybe. Probably. I don't know. But I guess I'm just that kind of actor.

And that's all I can say. >>

Carol Weber will be on vacation the week of May 11. News & Gossip will return the week of May 18.
