Young and the Restless Spoilers: Hayley Erin Returns To Soaps As “Claire Grace”, Headed For Newman Media

Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers hint at a new, yet familiar face joining the cast, very soon. Actress Hayley Erin will enter the land of Genoa City playing a new role this fall.

Some long-time fans may recall that Erin once played a teenaged Abby Newman-Abbott (currently portrayed by Melissa Ordway) from 2008 to 2010, so she’s quite familiar with the little town.

Y&R Spoilers: More Details On Hayley Erin’s Brand-New Genoa City Role

Soap Opera Digest (SOD) broke the news on Hayley’s new acting gig, and according to reports she’s set to enter GC sometime this fall.

Playing the new role of “Claire Grace”, she’ll be working under Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) at Newman Media.

Of course, Y&R spoilers for the fall suggest that Nikki will mentor an up-and-coming corporate star, and from the sounds of it, Claire fits that bill.

Looks like drama could be brewing at the media company, as there’s already a pretty passionate rising corporate star there to begin with in Audra Charles (Zulekya Silver), will the two young female executives experience a little friction? Could Claire turn Kyle Abbott’s (Michael Mealor) head?
