Amy Lewis Reclaims Genoa City
The Young and the Restless is giving a fresh spin to Amy Lewis. So, when can we expect Pettiford to grace our screen? The actress is slated to make her grand debut on October 29, 2024. Talk about a throwback with a twist! Check out her first look below, and let’s backtrack a bit to see Amy’s journey on the CBS soap so far.
She last appeared in Genoa City in 1988, and boy, was she in the thick of some dramatic stuff. Moreover, Amy romanced Tyrone Jackson, but her most memorable relationship was with none other than Nathan Hastings. Yep, that is Nate’s dad! The character was also busy working alongside Paul Williams and Andy Richards at their private investigation firm.
Eventually, she left town to take care of her father, and that was it. We never saw her again until now! Cut to 2024, Amy tries to contact Nate with a shady text. What business does Amy have with him now? She claims she’s got some urgent family matters to discuss. Meanwhile, Nate, being all responsible, heads straight to her.
The Y&R speculations suggest that Amy’s first stop back in Genoa City will be face-to-face with Nate. In addition, we can’t help but wonder what bombshell Amy will drop this time. And let’s not forget the new woman embracing the iconic Amy Lewis. For the record, Valarie Pettiford is no stranger to the spotlight, as she’s done it all from Broadway to TV!
