Is Summer Newman leaving The Young and the Restless?
Rumors are circulating that Hunter King, who plays Summer Newman, is leaving her role on but the news has not been confirmed by the actress or CBS.
King has portrayed Newman since 2012 and has stepped off the show before to take on other projects but has no upcoming projects on her IMDB page.
In April, King was interviewed about the show and discussed her hopes for Newman's future leading viewers to believe that she still has more drama to come.
Talking about Newman's future King commented “If Summer ever had a baby, the dad would always be Kyle. Except for maybe that brief stint with Luca where I was like, ‘Is this going to be the time, maybe?’ but wasn’t."
"I’m still holding out, but Kyle gets a kid before Summer gets a kid? What’s up with that?”
What is happening in Summer Newman's storyline?
Newman is engaged to Kyle Abbott and ready to start a life with him but is thrown off when it is revealed that Abbott has already started a life on his own with someone else.
Abbott discovers that he potentially has a child with another woman who brought their son to meet his possible father while Newman and Abbott were celebrating their engagement.
The woman is now living in Abbott's parents' home with their 3-year-old child while they await confirmation of the child's paternity.
This revelation has Newman spiraling and is only adding to the feud between her parents as they fight to come to her rescue.
As the couple tries to navigate this new situation, Newman took her father's advice and has postponed the wedding.
