Egan added that everyone behind the scenes as been fantastic throughout her time there. She suggested that all the people at “Sony and CBS are truly the best at what they do.” Egan noted that she’d formed a family at The Young and the Restless, so it sounds like she’s really going to miss them.

Egan also wanted to acknowledge the viewers who spend their afternoons in GC. Without the audience, there’d be no show! “To you incredible fans, thank you for EVERYTHING,” Egan said. It’s nice of Egan to send some love to everyone who tunes in. Y&R watchers let their favorite characters into their homes every day, so it’s great when soap stars appreciate the support.
