James Hyde Debuts on ‘Young and the Restless’ – Meet Jeremy Stark

James Hyde is on The Young and the Restless starting this Friday, playing James Stark. He’s key to one of the three major storylines on Y&R right now and his sexy self will be a great addition to the CBS soap cast. Check out what Hyde will be doing on the soap opera.

James Hyde on Young and the Restless – Meet Jeremy Stark

Jeremy Stark, played by James Hyde, is another of the secrets that come tumbling out about Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) every day on Y&R.

Based on their ages — he’s 60 to her 59 — we’ll assume Jeremy is an ex-lover of Diane’s from her time in LA. The Young and the Restless spoilers confirm he’ll debut on Friday, October 21, barring any preemptions.

We’d expect some of Jeremy’s first scenes to be with his presumed ex-lover, but maybe not. Perhaps silver fox Jeremy turns heads among other ladies in Genoa City. Then, Jeremy can shock Diane with his appearance on Young and the Restless. We’ll see…

Who is James Hyde – Y&R Casting News

If James Hyde looks familiar, that’s because he’s got a history in soaps. Years before bagging the role of Jeremy Stark, he had a turn as Sam Bennett on Passions.

He was on the soap series from its inception in 1999 to its finale in 2008. Bennett was a cop and then a police chief on the NBC soap. So, Young and the Restless fans might remember him from that run.

But now, Jeremy has a chance to thrill the ladies in GC. Even if he’s interested in his ex, she’s interested in her other ex. Diane’s busy chasing Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) so she might not be too happy with this blast from her past.

Is Jeremy Stark Tied to Tucker McCall from Young and the Restless Too?

One thing we’re assuming is that Jeremy Stark isn’t related to Tony Stark, the Iron Man billionaire from The Avengers. But perhaps he inspired the name? Is this guy a wealthy, rogue, playboy?
