Shemar Moore – Coping With Loss and Back to Y&R Soon as Malcolm Winters

Reportedly, this devastating loss is hitting Shemar Moore with triple force. Since, Moore is already coping with the recent death of his friend and Young and the Restless costar, Kristoff St John. The pair played brothers Neil Winters and Malcolm Winters on the CBS soap.

As a tribute to the loss of Kristoff St John, there’s a multi-episode arc about the abrupt death of his character Neil Winters on Y&R. He came back to play Malcolm Winters and appears on multiple Young and the Restless episodes surrounding the farewell storyline.

Shemar Moore was last spotted as Malcolm Winters back in 2014 but will appear next month on April 24 and 25 for the goodbye to Neil episodes honoring the late actor. Be sure to keep Shemar in your thoughts as he struggled with these recent losses and watch the CBS soap for his brief return.
