Former "Young and the Restless" star Victoria Rowell is suing the producers of the long-running soap opera, accusing the show of refusing to rehire her for almost two decades because of racism and her advocacy for African-Americans in the industry.
The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers explore how the character of Hilary is in many ways a homage to Drucilla. Hilary (Mishael Morgan) has been a focal point since she first arrived in Wisconsin. She stirred emotions within the Winter’s family ever since, which evokes memories of another force of nature who once lived in Genoa City.
I'm sure you've noticed I haven't been blogging as much recently. It's because I've been busy helping legendary soap queen Victoria Rowell bring characters from her popular novels Secrets of a Soap Opera Diva and The Young and the Ruthless to life in an upcoming made-for-TV movie!

“The Women Who Raised Me” is a loving tribute to extraordinary mentors, mothers, and teachers. Pivotal in her own life was Victoria’s no-nonsense social worker, Linda Webb. The sheer determi- nation of these diverse women fortified Victoria during her unlikely arrival in New York City at age seventeen with a full scholar- ship to study at the American Ballet Theater School. Navigating the Big Apple and the demanding, competitive world of classical ballet was not without its challenges. Accomplished, award-winning television and film star, Victoria tells her story of going from foster care to fame with honesty and candid- ness. Transfixing and redemptive, The Women Who Raised Me is both heartbreaking and heartwarming, ultimately, inspiring.

Ripped from the headlines of TMZ and packed with behind-the-scenes secrets, Victoria Rowell’s latest soap opera drama crackles with salacious details and over-the-top, hot and heavy hijinks. You won’t be able to put it down.

Ripped from the headlines of Soap Opera Digest and straight off of the television screen, Secrets of a Soap Opera Diva will give readers plenty to talk about as they try to guess where the real world ends and Rowell’s imagination begins.

The story of a remarkable woman's rise out of the foster-care system to attain the American dream—and of the unlikely series of women who lifted her up in marvelous and distinctive ways.
