The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers reveal that Beth Maitland (Traci Abbott) recently got a blast from the past. On Twitter, a Y&R fan shared a photo for Throwback Thursday, which featured Traci and Brad Carlton (Don Diamont) on their wedding day. It was a great pic of the beautiful bride and handsome groom. Brad and Traci were a gorgeous couple!
It was also a fun reminder of days gone by, so Maitland shared the pic with her followers. She gave a sweet shoutout to her old costar as well. Diamont now plays Bill Spencer on The Bold and the Beautiful, but Maitland enjoyed working with him during his stint as Y&R’s Brad. She acknowledged that in a recent tweet, which surely had Diamont feeling the love!
“One of the best times of my life,” Maitland admitted. “@don_diamont love you!!” Of course, plenty of Brad and Traci fans chimed in. Many Young and the Restless watchers have enjoyed the show for many years, so they certainly look back on Brad and Traci’s happy times fondly.
“Beautiful I remember when you guys got married was the best day ever,” one Y&R viewer tweeted. “You two look heavenly,” another fan said. “It would be great to have both characters back again together!” one more fan suggested. “Almost anything can happen on a soap opera and that is one of the wonderful attractions that keep fans watching day after day!”
Brad died back in 2009, but there are other ways of putting Diamont back on canvas. What about an exciting Y&R and B&B crossover? Last fall, Maitland did an interview with Soap Opera Digest that described her dream date for Traci.
“That would be bringing Bill Spencer over from B&B; a one-time scene where he’s visiting Genoa City and literally just bumps into Traci, who just for a second, mistakes him for Brad,” Maitland said. She thought it’d be interesting if they sat down and reflected on their lives over drinks. “Dollar Bill” would be buying of course!
Once they discussed their challenges and loneliness, Maitland contended that they’d connect somehow before saying goodbye. “They hit it off and leave laughing about the incident and share a moment before walking away,” Maitland said. That’s just some nice speculation on Maitland’s part, but we’re all for anything that allows Maitland and Diamont to team up again onscreen!
Even if that never happens, we’ll always have Brad and Traci memories! The Young and the Restless spoilers, updates and news say Traci will reflect on some other memories before long – ones involving her mother.
The end appears to be drawing near for Dina Mergeron (Marla Adams), so that’s something that should bring the Abbotts together for a time of reflection. As other updates come in, Y&R fans won’t want to miss what’s in store. You can always pop in here at CDL for hot Young and the Restless spoilers and news.
