‘Young and the Restless’ Comings & Goings: JT Hellstrom Return Ahead?
Young and the Restless casting news suspects JT Hellstrom might make a return soon, judging by recent clues. Also, someone may leave Genoa City, and a new addition is a huge hit on Y&R. Check out the latest casting changes for the CBS sudser.
Young and Restless Comings & Goings: JT Hellstrom Return Hinted
Recently, Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) name-dropped Jeffery Todd “JT” Hellstrom (Thad Luckinbill). Long-time fans may recall that he is Victoria Newman‘s (Amelia Heinle) ex-husband, and they share a child. In a fun twist, the JT actor is married to the Victoria actress in real life.
JT was a stand-up guy who suddenly turned abusive toward Vikki. One night, he showed up at her house, desperate for another chance. But things turned violent, and he slapped Vikki. Then, her mom, Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott), showed up.
And she had Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) and Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) with her. So, Nikki clobbered JT with a fireplace poker and thought he was dead. Then, they buried him to protect themselves. Turns out, he was not dead, just unconscious.
Later, he crawled out of the grave and “haunted” the ladies for a long time on Young and the Restless. Come to find out, he had a brain tumor that was causing his violent and out-of-character behavior. So, the tumor was removed.
JT in Prison on Y&R
Of course, JT could have blamed his actions on his tumor to avoid prison time. However, he was remorseful and wanted to pay for his crimes. So, he was sent to prison. Now, it looks like he’s out because Audra is pushing Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) to interview him on her podcast.
No doubt, Audra wants to distract Vikki by bringing her ex-hubby back, hoping to end her infatuation with Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic). So, he might be on his way back very soon.
Young and the Restless fans were absolutely livid that the showrunners took a super nice guy and made him a monster. No doubt, they would love to have him back without the brain tumor. Then, he could go back to being the good guy he once was.

Y&R Casting News: Is Tucker McCall Out?
Also, Tucker McCall (Trevor St. John) may exit the sudser soon. Recently, he told Audra he was leaving and asked her to go with him. Next week, he fights with Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) and threatens to leave town.
But Ashley asks him to move into the Abbott mansion with her. No doubt, to annoy her brother, Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman). So, it’s highly unlikely he’ll leave now that he has a chance to get closer to Ashley.
