The Young and the Restless has seen a lot of sizzling drama thanks to actor James Hyde. Ever since his character Jeremy Stark first made his debut in Genoa City, everyone has been on their toes. This is especially true for Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters), as she is one person who fears him the most. But that hasn’t been the case for Phyllis Summers. They’ve had one wild ride together. And now the character’s portrayer, Michelle Stafford, is saying goodbye to James Hyde as his time on The Young and the Restless is over.

As many The Young and the Restless fans know, Jeremy Stark was very instrumental in Phyllis’ plan to fake her death. She also learned the hard way that Jeremy was a very dangerous man. And while Phyllis was trying to survive for her own life on screen, Michelle’s off-screen relationship with James was the exact opposite of what fans saw in front of the cameras.
