Just like his fans, the actor expressed his surprise after learning that he’s out. But just like any good actor, Goddard accepted the decision with grace and thanked the show for the opportunity.

“I’m as shocked and gutted as you are. I almost didn’t post but I felt that the most loyal and loving fans an actor could wish for deserved to know and watch the last story arc knowing the rich meaning behind it,” the actor said.

“I’m forever grateful for the 13 years I have been a part of the Y&R family, but sadly, it seems that without Neil and Lily, there is just no Cane,” the actor continued.

Y&R Spoilers – Daniel Goddard and Christel Khalil’s Hit Pairing

Goddard joined the show in 2007 and was paired with Christel Khalil, who played Lily Winters. Fans loved them and they became a super couple. However, Khalil was moved to recurring status and viewers saw the marriage of the two characters hit the skids when Lily was sent to prison. The two were last seen together in October 25 episode when Lily briefly visited Genoa City.

Viewers may recall that the actor was let go from the show when his character was killed off back in 2011. But viewers wanted him back so much that the show was forced to rehire Goddard. It was then revealed that it wasn’t Cane who was killed but his twin brother.
