The Young and the Restless News: Y&R And AMC Alum Eva La Rue Welcomes A New Addition To Her Family

Former soap star Eva La Rue is happy to welcome a new addition to her family. Just a few weeks ago, she lost her beloved husband John Callahan who is best known for starring on All My Children as Edmund Grey. He sadly passed away leaving behind La Rue and their daughter, Kaya McKenna Callahan.

La Rue welcomed a new fur baby to the family. Apparently, Cali was John’s fur baby and she was excited to now take care of Cali. With a couple of pictures of herself alongside Cali she wrote, “Welcome to the family Cali! Wasn’t looking to add another thing that poops to the household, but she was John’s baby, and I know she’ll be just what God ordered to help us heal and vice versa. #dogslife #johnsbestfriend #matchmadeinheaven *Rest peacefully John, I promise she’s in good hands”.

La Rue is a mom, actress, philanthropist and travel-oholic. She has her own website and YouTube channel. She is best known for playing the role of Maria Santos on All My Children. She recently was on The Young and the Restless where she played the role of Celeste Rosales for a brief period.

Upon on her husband’s sad passing, she wrote the words, “May Flights of Angels Wing You to Your Rest my Dear Friend. Your bigger than life, gregarious personality will leave a hole in our hearts forever. We are devastated-My great friend, co parent partner, and loving father to Kaya. That big belly laugh, bear hugs, bad puns, ability to harmonize to any song, great kitchen table singing-fests, and two steppin bad ass! “Johnny Numbers”, my All My Children soap stud, the great time keeper, Beatles fanatic ( I wish to God we could go back to “Yesterday”)… Kaya and I are beyond broken hearted, so stunned, sorry that my thoughts are a mess. You gave the best most beautifully written tributes, and I am at a complete loss for words right now for you. I hope Heaven has baseball and that your team always wins! The Yankees has just lost their biggest Fan.”

Dogs are a special part of our lives. They provide a certain level of comfort and sometimes peace. We are certain in this case Cali will do nothing less for La Rue and her family. Congratulations on this exciting new addition to your family. We are looking forward to whatever you choose to do next.
