โIโm Not ๐ณ๐๐๐!โ โ Judith Chapman Slams Vicious Online Rumors Y&R Spoilers
The Young and the Restless spoilers suggest that itโs been a hot minute since fans have seen Gloria Abbott Bardwell in the land of Genoa City.
Actress Judith Chapman hasnโt been involved in a storyline on the soap since Gloriaโs son Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc) saved her from a Singapore prison and brought her home for Thanksgiving in 2023 (she also helped him renew his vows to Lauren Fenmore (Tracey E. Bregman) later that year on New Yearโs Eve).
With that said, Chapman recently hopped on social media to set the recordย straight regarding an odd rumor circulating.
Judith Chapman Is Alive and Well!
Chapman posted on Facebook, May 12, to set the record straight, as there had been a rumor going around that she had a heart attack at home when no one was around and died.
She let her fans know this was โfake newsโ, going on to say, โSo strange, but all OK.โ
Unfortunately, misinformation spreads a lot online, especially in the land of soaps. A fellow Y&Rer, Beth Maitland (Traci Abbott), had posted on social media at one point as well toย assure fans she had not passed away, either.
Chapmanโs A Soap Opera Legend
Many fans would welcome a Gloria return, as Chapman always delights whenever she drops by.
Still, the soap actress is a legend in daytime, not only for her role on The Young and the Restless, but for other characters sheโs played along the way.
Fans may recall Chapman playing Charlotte on Ryanโs Hope in 1983, as well as Ginny Blake Webber on General Hospital from 1984 to 1986, and One Life to Liveโs Sandra Montaigne in 1987.
Chapmanย also played Days of Our Livesโ Anjelica Deveraux fromย 1989 to 1991, as well as in 2018.
She was also recast as Diana Colville on the Peacock soap, who happened to be the mom of Leo Stark, played by Y&R alum Greg Rickaart, who was Chapmanโs onscreen son in Genoa City, Kevin Fisher. Judith stepped into the role of Diana both in 2019 and 2024.
