‘The Young And The Restless’ (Y&R) spoilers show that Melissa Claire Egan (Chelsea Lawson) is getting a lot of praise for her recent performance. Chelsea has been struggling with depression and even took to the roof and contemplated jumping. Thankfully, Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) knew she was struggling and went up to check on her.
Upon arriving at the top of the roof he convinced Chelsea to step back and not jump. Shortly after however, Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) showed up and wanted answers, but Billy did not want to get into it with him at the moment, especially after what had just happened.
‘The Young And The Restless’ Spoilers: Eric Braeden (Victor Newman) Congratulates Melissa Claire Egan (Chelsea Lawson) On Her Outstanding Performance
While fans have been cheering Egan on for her performance, her co-star Eric Braeden (Victor Newman) had a lot to say about it! On Twitter a fan called out the scene with Billy and Chelsea saying, “Thumbs up to today’s THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS for resisting the urge to air another ‘let’s get costumed- up for Halloween’ episode and having the gravitas to tackle the important issues surrounding depression and suicide. Well-done! #YR.”
Eric Braeden actually commented on the post himself just to say, “MELISSA CLAIRE EGAN HAS GIVEN ABSOLUTELY RIVETING PERFORMANCES!! I was very moved!” This is pretty high praise from a soap opera great and if I were Egan I would be pretty happy with myself right about now!
We look forward to seeing what is next for Chelsea, and many of us assume it will have something to do with Billy. Of course, this is after she gets some help from Sharon Rosales (Sharon Case). It’s scary how close Chelsea was but hopefully she’ll come back stronger after this.
