Y&R Spoilers: Beth Maitland Talks Emmy Nomination
Maitland was nominated for a Daytime Emmy this year. She did some very emotional scenes this year, with Ashley Abbott’s (Eileen Davidson) departure and all the heartbreaking scenes with Dina Mergeron (Marla Adams). For many Y&R fans, they thought that this nomination was a long time coming.
“I have not been in this race for many years, and I have been a dedicated participant in the daytime world/universe, but I honestly never thought this day would come again, and I am so grateful, and I am so excited. I could not be more honored to be in a position to celebrate my peers, my coworkers, my medium — everything! I’m just as high as a kite,” Maitland said of her nomination.
Beth went on to say,” One was early in the year, involving the Dina [Marla Adams] Alzheimer’s storyline and the fallout from that. It was not so much about Dina, but more about how her illness affects the family and the impact it has in a very personal way to the caregivers and to those people around who feel left behind. Another episode was a standalone sort of thing that stuck out for me, where Traci dedicated a scholarship in the name of her departed daughter, Colleen [Tammin Sursok], and there was a particularly beautiful speech that was written for Traci for this dedication.”

yes, I’ve always like Traci….
yes, she should be on the show she has always been a good and kind character now that Neil is gone she will come to the forefront more I hope I I remember years ago how Ashley and Lauren were terrible to her . Brad the ”pool boy ” ( he has come a long way- B&B) was involved . She was the over weight one and they both made fun of her . not nice .
