THE SCOOP

Fresh off of his Daytime Emmy Award-nominated stint as Leo Stark on NBC’s “Days of our Lives,” actor Greg Rikaart is heading back to Genoa City as his character, Kevin Fisher, on “The Young and the Restless.”

According to Soap Opera Digest, Rikaart’s return storyline is being kept under wraps at this time but fans should expect to see Kevin back in town by late spring.

When Kevin was last seen in town in February 2018, he worked with Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) in obtaining Adam Newman’s DNA records. With Adam set to return to Genoa City in the months ahead (played by newcomer Mark Grossman), could Kevin play a key role in what brings the popular character back to “Y&R”? You’ll just have to tune in to find out!

Rikaart won the Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series in 2005 for his “Y&R” role. He’s nominated in the same category for his one-year stint on “DAYS,” which concluded with the Tuesday, March 26 episode.
