The Young And The Restless – Christel Khalil Got A New Soap Gig?
In order to ensure The Gates success, the soap opera will have to have a star-studded cast. And, rumor has it a lot of soap stars are auditioning for the roles and willing to leave their current shows. The Young and the Restless is rumored to be taking a huge loss and losing a fan fave.
The Young and the Restless rumor mill has had a few things to say about Christel Khalil (Lily Winters) over the years. General consensus on social media is that the actress has a lot of bad blood with TPTB at Y&R, despite her lengthy tenure as Lily Winters.
A few years ago it was revealed that Khalil had been auditioning for other roles and looking to leave Y&R when she got in a spat with her management company over the casting calls they were sending her on.
Khalil has been itching to land a lead on another soap for a while now, and this is her golden opportunity.
