Beth Maitland originated the role of Traci Abbott on “The Young and the Restless” in 1982 – the only actress to portray the character. Traci was the youngest of the Abbott children until Jill Abbot (Jess Walton) gave birth to Billy – her son with John Abbott (Jerry Douglas). Traci has come and gone from Genoa City several times since she left town in 1996 with husband Steve Connelly (Greg Wrangler), a publisher who lived in New York City. Traci and Steve eventually divorced after the death of Traci’s daughter Colleen Carlton with husband Brad Carlton (Don Diamont).
Maitland has brought Traci back to “Y&R” for a few guest appearances over the years, usually involving an Abbott family emergency or a holiday. After Traci’s divorce she came back to Genoa City and moved in with her niece Abby Newman. Since then “The Young and the Restless” saw Traci a few times, but not recently.

Glad Tracy is coming back Abby is going to need her real mom. She can help Abby kick home wrecker Ashley to tge curb for stealing Abby man. Tracy can and will hopefully set both Ashley and Stitch straight and makes stitch see that he loves Abby and only Abby.
Glad Beth Maitland is returning. Always enjoy seeing her with the Abbott clan!
I love it when Tracy comes back, Beth Maitland does a wonderful job. However, I don’t see her staying around because TPTB are not interested in portraying families in a positive manner, only sharing sex partners and back stabbing one another.
Tracy represents stability and that is something that is non-existent with this regime and its’ writing.
