The Young and the Restless spoilers has some news to pass on about an incoming Y&R star. As you may know, Eva LaRue will soon be joining Y&R as Celeste Rosales, the mother of Rey Rosales (Jordi Vilasuso) and Lola Rosales (Sasha Calle). Eva formerly portrayed Maria Santos Grey on All My Children and Natalia Boa Vista on CSI: Miami.
Unfortunately, Eva recently shared some sad news with her social media followers. She took to Instagram to share that her beloved father had passed away. First, she shared a beautiful photo of herself and her father embracing along with the following caption: “I love you my Daddy. Until I see you again, my 5-year-old self will dance on your feet in my dreams.”
Then a few days later, Eva posted a photo of flowers and her father’s portrait from his memorial service. She stated: “An unconventional memorial for an unconventional man. I love you Daddy. You will always be with me, in mind, heart and spirit. I know your love will morph into an omnipresent feeling of guidance. God gave us memory, so that we can have roses in December.”
Eva’s followers have responded to her posts with an outpouring of support and condolence messages. One person wrote: “Our condolences for your dad passing away. He will always be alive in your heart and memories.” And another wrote: “So sorry for your loss. Beautiful memories to comfort your heart now and forever. Beautiful tribute to your Dad.”
Eva also received some wishes from some fellow actors as well. Gilles Marini (Ted Laurent, DOOL) responded to her post about her dad’s memorial service, and Adam Rodriquez (Eric Delko, CSI: Miami) shared a simple heart emoji on the post. It’s great to see Eva’s colleagues supporting her during such an emotional time.
You’ll be able to catch Eva on Y&R as Celeste Rosales starting in late June. It should be interesting to see what Mama Rosales thinks about her children’s new romances. Of course, Rey has just started a relationship with Sharon Newman (Sharon Case), and Lola will soon be moving in with a still-married Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor).
We send our sincerest condolences to Eva during this time. Stay tuned to the CBS soap and don’t forget to check CDL often for the latest Young and the Restless spoilers, updates, and news.
