It’s good news for The Young and the Restless fans, as Veronica Redd will be returning to Geona City on Tuesday, September 26, reprising her fan-favorite role as Mamie Johnson. Redd first joined the long-running soap in 1990, taking over from Marguerite Ray as the Abbott family’s housekeeper Mamie, which she continued to play until 2004 (after a four-year hiatus from 95-99) when she parted ways with the show. However, Redd returned briefly earlier this year for the soap’s 50th-anniversary celebration. It isn’t yet clear how long Redd will be back, but fans should expect to see Mamie once again reconnecting with the Abbotts, who have been going through their own drama as of late. The siblings are currently at war following Jack’s (Peter Bergman) marriage to Diane (Susan Walters) and Ashley’s (Eileen Davidson) engagement to Tucker (Trevor St. John). Maybe Mamie can help whip them into shape?...

The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences has apologized for misrepresenting actor Marguerite Ray with a photo of living actor Veronica Redd in the In Memoriam segment that aired during the 48th annual Daytime Emmy Awards.

Ray had a 10-year run on the CBS soap “The Young and the Restless” from 1980 to 1990 as the character Mamie Johnson. Redd took over the role in 1990 for 14 years.

The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences has apologized for running a photo of the wrong deceased “The Young and the Restless” actress during the 48th Annual Daytime Emmys’ In Memoriam segment Friday night.
