Dramatic storyline prompts Y&R to hire body double for popular actress

Someone who looks exactly like The Young and the Restless' Mishael Morgan (Hilary Curtis) will soon be taking the place of the pregnant actress... but why?

The Young and the Restless' Mishael Morgan (Hilary Curtis) is about to leave Genoa City with a bang that's so big, the soap had to hire a body double.

The pregnant actress will soon be leaving the canvas for her maternity leave, and Daytime Confidential reports that the exciting story the powers that be dreamt up to usher Hilary off the canvas required somebody else to wear the character's shoes for a spell.

Everyone at Y&R is keeping a tight lid on the story, but the explosive arc apparently involves Hilary's vengeful ex-hubby, Neil, whose portrayer, Kristoff St. John, is hellbent on making her pay for betraying him.

"Darkness overtakes us all, it's a matter of how long it takes to see the light," he tweeted last month. "You're married, an accident leaves you blind. You discover that your spouse has been sleeping with your child for a year. What would you do?"

What do you think will ultimately usher Hilary off the screen? Do you think Neil is justified in getting revenge on his ex? Share your thoughts in the Comments section below, on our message boards, or by submitting Feedback.
