When Kristoff St. John passed away in 2019, the Y&R viewers were so happy that the soap opera included her in the tribute to the beloved actor. Many assumed her personal issues with the management would prevent her from being a part of the show.

“I will simply say because it is now something has come and gone that Kristoff is fondly remembered, beloved by his fans, and will always be a part of the success and legacy of The Young and the Restless. I was blessed to have the opportunity to work with such an amazing human being and fabulous actor,” Victoria Rowell shared.
