Michael Morgan, who plays the lawyer, has actually been replaced by Carla Mosley… but for what reason? Is this change permanent?

A new actress in the role of Amanda

In 2021, during the filming of these components of “The Young and the Restless” in the United States, Michael Morgan (who spoke to AlloCiné about his roles in Hilary and Amanda) was forced to leave the filming of the cult series. Emergency surgery! He was suffering from retinal damage in his right eye.

So, while the star underwent surgery and then recovered, The Young and the Restless producers decided to call on Carla Mosley to fill in for Michael Morgan during her recovery.

Carla Mosley is already a famous face among the believers of American soap operas. We remind you that the latter took place in 2013-2019 in love, fame and beauty. In a spin-off from The Young and the Restless, she then slipped into the shoes of Maya Avanti.

She told Soap Opera Digest:My only hesitation was playing Mishael, who is so loved and an extraordinary person and actor. It was great to be able to talk to her and thank you for giving me such a beautiful way.

Don’t worry, Michael Morgan will soon be back in The Young and the Restless on TF1…
