Courtney Hope Has Played Sally Spectra On Two Soaps
In 2017, Hope joined the cast of The Bold and the Beautiful as Sally Spectra. By 2020, however, the character crossed over into The Young and the Restless, bringing Hope with her.
Hope would remain in the role for years following the transition. However, recently, the actress recently became the subject of rumors claiming her time on the soap is coming to an end.

On January 26, Hope shared an Instagram Story concerning the rumors. In the post, she included a screenshot from an Instagram account claiming to be a news site for the soap.
Hope Noted The ‘Responsibility’ She Feels For Her Fans
As seen in the post, a teaser read, “Courtney Hope Says Goodbye to Y&R – A New Chapter Awaits for the Beloved Star!” For her part, Hope wrote in the caption, “This is not true, and it really is infuriating when people put out false news just to get a reaction out of the fans. I’m not leaving, I’m not taking a break, no such thing has been uttered. Deplorable clickbait.”
At this time, it is believed that the original Instagram post is still online. Hope herself took to the comments, sharing, “I have absolutely no idea where you’re getting your information.” She continued, “I would really appreciate you stopping the spread of misinformation. You’re getting people worked out for no reason.”

As noted by Soap Hub, Hope acknowledged that this was “not my first go around with false narratives.” She noted she’s become used to such stories. However, she felt, “I have a problem with preying on people’s emotions,” suggesting this was not really about her.
The actress continued, “You know, we at The Young and the Restless work really hard to make sure our fan base is valued and seen and heard. And I have a problem when somebody takes that value system of us and uses it for their own self-satisfaction and their own gratification for clickbait, for boosting their own presence.” She added, “It’s gross, and I feel a responsibility to my fans, to The Young and the Restless fans to make sure they have the correct information.”
