The Young And The Restless (Y&R) rumor mill was recently abuzz, suggesting Chance Chancellor had finally been recast. And for once the rumors were true. The news was confirmed today by Soap Opera Digest and the new actor stepping into the role is Conner Floyd.
It all started when Amelia Heinle (Victoria Newman) posted a photo of what looked like a welcome home party for Chance. She was lying on a couch with Jess Walton (Jill Abbott) and Bryton James (Devon Hamilton) standing behind her. But it was the sign behind them that caused the stir.
It showed the name Chance, in a fancy font, with an exclamation mark after it. So fans assumed, and rightly so, the characters weren’t attending a memorial for Abby Chancellor’s (Melissa Ordway) husband. Heinle quickly deleted the Instagram post.
Y&R News – Abby Chancellor Refused To Believe It
Viewers recently watched as Abby received some terrible news regarding her husband. Christine Williams (Lauralee Bell) told her the compound where Chance was stationed was hit by a bomb. The building was levelled and everyone was feared dead.

Since Christine informed her of her husband’s supposed death in an explosion, she’s refused to believe it. All of Abby’s friends and family have thought she was delusional. But it looks like she’ll be welcoming her husband back later this month. And as you can see from the photo, Ordway and Floyd look great together.
Young And The Restless Scoop – Fans Are On Board With The Recast
So far, fans seem to be on board with the recast. “He kind of reminds me of Cole, Victoria’s ex-husband from many years ago. (Both good looking guys),” one fan commented. “They really look beautiful together. I think he may be worth the wait. Best of luck to these two,” another said.

Y&R is the best and is getting better all the time.
Oh that is really sad… there are so many actors out there, why him?? I am so sorry Melissa has to act with him on a daily basis…absolute opposites.
Can we see a real baby moving ? I know because of Covid we can’t. Billy resigning shows he really does love/respect Lilly. Adam is going down for this and Victor is so very wrong for doing Billy like this . Billy needs to be vindicated for he did nothing wrong, he beer was going to report the story because of Victoria. Ashton needs to set Victor Victoria and Adam up. Let Billy and Lilly be happy please. Devon is going to be hooked on the baby. Mariah is boring already . Allow Jack and Phyllis to reunite again permanently this time. Sally needs to leave Genoa City for real .
