Maitland used her Instagram account to post a Y&R preview video that highlights upcoming episodes. Her character, Traci, is highlighted in the first classic show that will be seen.

The Young And The Restless Spoilers – Traci Abbott Is A Legacy Character
Maitland won a Daytime Emmy Award in 1985. She took the prize in the Outstanding Actress in a Supporting Role in a Daytime Drama Series category. The actor joined the cast in 1984, with the award covering the backdated period from when her initial storyline was playing.
As hardcore fans recall, Traci was pregnant and involved in a life or death storyline that led to her marrying Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian), who was not the father of her expected child. Traci later miscarried and divorced Danny.

During that era in show history, Traci was also treated very harshly by Lauren Fenmore (Tracey Bregman), who was involved with Danny. Traci later married Brad Carlton (Don Diamont).
