What does this mean for her Y&R role? King has played the role of Summer Newman since 2012 on contract. But now Deadline is reporting that due to her promotion on the primetime series she has been bumped to recurring on Y&R.  It looks like we will be seeing a lot less of her in Genoa City. Does this mean the developing relationship between Summer and Luca [Miles Gaston Villanueva] will be dissolved soon? Will they continue to see each other as we see Summer from time to time?

 So Y&R fans are you happy that she has been upped to series regular? What do you think about her status change at Y&R? What do you think will happen with Summer now?
