Christine “Cricket” Blair and Danny Romalotti are saying “I do” again — because in Genoa City, true love always deserves an encore!
Lauralee Bell and Michael Damian sat down with Soaps.com ahead of their characters’ highly anticipated wedding on The Young and the Restless. They promise that the second walk down the aisle is “beautiful,” “heartfelt,” filled with “a lot of emotion,” and, of course, “drama.”

“There’s no drama,” whispers Bell to Damian.
“Oh, believe me, it’s always drama,” he replies. “When has there been a wedding with no drama?”

“It could not be what you expect,” she teases. “There are multiple dramas, and a few of them aren’t what you would expect. So that’s good.”
Cricket and Danny’s second chance at love has been over 30 years in the making, and for once, Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) is finally out of the way. However, the duo has faced numerous other challenges over the decades, and Bell believes it was the couple’s diverging interests that often got in the way of their relationship — a lawyer and a rock star’s lives don’t always align.
“I’ve seen so many episodes about how much you were studying,” Damian recalls. “And I would tease her and torture her, which was really fun. She was on the couch, reading the law books. I’m like, ‘You need a break.’ We were both really career-driven.”
“Any girl would have been like, ‘Lawyer, who cares? I’m going on tour with my man, right? No, no, I have to stay home.’ And maybe that’s what kept you interested all these years,” notes Bell. “Because all these women were throwing themselves at you. But Cricket was like, ‘I have my law books.’”
She continues, “Now, Cricket is fun.”
“She’s on tour,” Damian chimes in.
“That’s why we’re getting remarried,” laughs Bell.

The upcoming wedding will also be a satisfying opportunity for viewers to see Cricket and Danny’s love story come full circle as she marries her “first love”… again. But it’s also a sweet moment for Damian and Bell.
“It’s very out of Cricket’s comfort zone to throw caution to the wind and just say, ‘I’m going on this journey,’” Bell explains. “And I think it’s been very good, very freeing.”
Cricket and Danny’s happily-ever-after wedding will air on The Young and the Restless on Friday, Nov. 21, and Monday, Nov. 24.
