The Young And The Restless Spoilers: Richard Burgi Leaving Y&R Headed Back To GH?

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers reveal that Richard Burgi dropped a bombshell Saturday night, telling fans on his Instagram stories that he has left the number one rated American soap. He gave no additional details other than to thank the cast and crew and the fans, noting he had a wonderful experience playing Ashland Locke. He debuted in the role last March and the character had a few dramatic twists and turns along the way.

The Young And The Restless Spoilers – Why Did Richard Burgi Leave?

Prior to playing Y&R’s Ashland Locke, Burgi played the role of Paul Hornsby on the ABC soap General Hospital. Will Burgi return to GH now that he has left Y&R?

The role of Paul Hornsby debuted in March 1991. At that time he was played by Paul Satterfield up until his departure in 1994. The character was brought back to Port Charles, New York in July 2015 with Burgi in the role. He remained on the soap until October 2016.

Y&R Spoilers – Will Richard Burgi Return To The ABC Soap General Hospital?

The question of whether Burgi returns to GH at this time is especially relevant because one of the first people the character originally interacted with was Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot). Elliot returned to the show just a few days ago and she did so with stunning news about the death of Luke Spencer (Anthony Geary).

Tracy never does anything without something being in it for her and fans are sure there is more to the story of why she so suddenly appeared. Might she have Paul Hornsby waiting in the wings, ready to swoop in? Paul and Tracy share a son, Dillon Quartermaine.

In 2015, Tracy could not believe that Paul wanted to get back together with her and build a relationship with Dillon. He was the new PC district attorney, and eventually Tracy caught him and Ava Jerome in bed together. Oopsie.

Paul and Ava went to the dark side as weapons dealers and things took an even darker turn when Paul was discovered to be a GH serial killer.

Long story short, Paul tried to kill Tracy, but instead he was thwarted, arrested and sentenced to a lengthy prison term. Has something changed, is he about to get out on good behavior? Or has he escaped and planning to come back to terrorize Port Chuck?
