When “The Young and the Restless'” Hunter King (Summer Newman) hops over to “The Bold and the Beautiful” next week for a planned two-week crossover event between daytime’s most-watched soaps she’ll be joined by “Y&R” co-star Michael Mealor (Kyle Abbott), according to a newly released promo by CBS, a tweet by Mealor on Twitter and a first look clip from their appearance on “B&B.”
“An all expenses paid trip to Los Angeles courtesy of Jabot? Count. Me. In!” tweeted Mealor earlier this week, commenting on a promo package released by the network highlighting the upcoming crossover. A scene from King and Mealor’s appearance on “B&B” was released today by CBS which finds their characters fresh off their first night in Los Angeles preparing for a meeting with Wyatt Spencer (“B&B’s” Darin Brooks).
