The Young and the Restless Star Vail Bloom Opens Up About Why She’s Leaving Genoa City

In a new interview with TV Insider, the stunning brunette beauty said that she’s got nothing but love for the soap and especially since she was given a second chance playing her character. The first time around Vail was on the canvas was between 2007-2010.

She told the site, “It was fun for the show, and I’m so happy that I was received well and that fans were excited to see me again. But personally, it was a blessing because it felt like home and family.”

“The first time I played Heather, I was young and I just moved to LA and you’re not a fully grown, operating adult when you’re just starting out.”

“So, it was so beautiful to have the experience of what I had in my early 20s and then be able to see it through the lens of someone who’s older and wiser and 10 years deeper into the industry. I was just so thankful for it. I felt so lucky.”

However, Vail said that she did recognize the fact that she wouldn’t be on for very long, considering the storyline she was in.

She said, “You can understand and appreciate that for a storyline, it’s gonna get a lot of bang for your buck.”

“You’re going to pull on the heartstrings of the audience, you’re going to engage them, you’re going to offset and uplift a different storyline. But there’s sadness because change is always hard.”

“I love Heather, and I love what she’s done this year and it’s fun playing her. But as an actor, you know this show is not just about you. You’re fitting into a larger story with a lot of people.”
