Heather Stevens

Heather Stevens is a fictional character ''The Young and the Restless'', an American soap opera on the CBS network. Created by William J. Bell, she was introduced in 1979 as the daughter of Paul Williams (Doug Davidson) and April Stevens (Cindy Eilbacher). She was portrayed by a series of child actors for her first three-year period, followed by Conci Nelson as a teenager. In 2007, the character was reintroduced by then-head writer Lynn Marie Latham as an adult, portrayed by Vail Bloom. At first, she is unaware that she is Paul's daughter, but they develop a father-daughter relationship. She becomes district attorney and later a high-profile lawyer.

Upon her return, she develops a romance with villain Adam Newman (Chris Engen), which received fan support. In 2010, Bloom announced her exit from the soap opera in order to pursue other career opportunities. The role was then recast with Eden Riegel, who remained in the role until her exit in November 2011. Seven months later, Jennifer Landon became the second recast for the role; within five months of joining the cast, she was let go and exited in November 2012. In January 2023, Bloom announced her return to the soap opera in February 2023. Provided by Wikipedia
