'Young and the Restless' (Y&R) Cast: Chrishell Stause Joining In New 'Wild Child' Role, Will She Stir Up Trouble? [PHOTO]
Another new face is heading to Genoa City, and the newest character to soon debut on The Young and the Restless could be a big troublemaker.
According to reports, Chrishell Stause (ex-Jordan, Days of Our Lives; ex-Amanda, All My Children), will debut on Wednesday May 25 as a new character name Bethany Bryant, and her character description seems to indicate she will definitely find ways to add new drama to the lives of the Newmans and the Abbotts.
Bethany is described as a "young woman who relishes the chance to push things to the limit and live dangerously as long as she's not the one who gets burned. The wild child will find herself immersed in a prominent family's juicy drama."
The nod to a prominent family's juicy drama seems to indicate she could become involved in some way with either the Abbotts or the Newmans, since they are the two most prominent families in Genoa City, and are constantly at odds with one another.
No other details have been given about the character, but if she does get involved with the Newmans, Bethany could bring some new drama to Adam (Justin Hartley) and Chelsea's (Melissa Clare Egan) lives, since Hartley is Stause's real-life boyfriend. Lately, Adam and Chelsea's biggest roadblock has been breaking him away from the control of his father, Victor (Eric Braden), a move that currently seems to be working. However, it wouldn't be a soap opera if the couple remained happy for long, meaning a new lady catching Adam's eye could be the perfect way to shake things up-and who better to play such a trouble-making woman than Hartley's real-life significant other, who he is sure to have some major chemistry with.
Of course, while it is unknown what her character will actually do, it's clear Stause is very much welcome on the show's set, with her beau posting a photo of them together on Instagram, welcoming her on her first day.
