As the wedding for Cricket and Danny approaches on The Young and the Restless, Cricket's portrayer, Lauralee Bell, is sharing a real-life romance update. She has a big announcement about her life with husband, Scott Martin!

The Young and the Restless, Club 28

"Cheers to 28 years, Scott!!" Bell posted on Instagram. "Happy Anniversary! ❤️ Such a pretty day and fun outing at @ojaioliveoil !!"

"Happy anniversary to you and Scott," Mark Edward Willows wrote to Bell. "Wow, 28 years? Keep going for 28 more."

Added Patti Denney, Y&R's former makeup artist, "Happy Anniversary!!!" The artist added a heart emoji, two champagne glass emojis, and a bottle of bubbly emoji to her thoughtful post.

Adrienne Frantz, who played Amber Moore on both The Young and the Restless, and its sister soap, The Bold and the Beautiful, wrote: "Happy Anniversary!! It's so good to see the 2 of you still in love all of [these] years later! I remember when you got married! Wow! Has 28 years really gone by?"

Bell's former TV husband, Doug Davidson (ex-Paul), wrote, of the image in which the happy couple (both of whom are wearing jeans) are sitting together, "I'm not sure whose legs are who's, but it doesn't matter...after 28 years, you share everything." Davidson added a heart emoji and a laughing with tears emoji. "Love you both!!!!!" chimed in Martha Byrne (ex-Lily, As the World Turns). "Happy Anniversary!!!"

Other well-wishers include Susan Walters (Diane), Tracey Bregman (Lauren), Scott Reeves (ex-Ryan), Barbara Crampton (ex-Leanna), Daniel Goddard (ex-Cane; Henry Dalton, General Hospital), and Kristian Alfonso (ex-Hope, Days of our Lives).

Next month, Danny and Cricket are headed back to the altar to tie the knot. The couple first wed in 1990. Alas, about five years later, the honeymoon was officially over after Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) lied to Danny that he had fathered her son, Daniel (Michael Graziadei).

It took a few years, but it came out that Phyllis had drugged Danny and made him think that they'd been intimate. Christine was part of the legal team that helped expose Phyllis's machinations in court. The redhead not only lost Danny, but she lost custody of their son, too. Phyllis has never quite gotten over Chris's role in Danny's life.

In fact, Christine has asked Daniel to make sure his mother doesn't do anything to turn her upcoming special day into dissarray. Will Phyllis ruin Cricket and Danny's second wedding day?
