Y&R to feature Lee Phillip Bell on series' 11,000th episode

The Young and the Restless' very own co-creator, Lee Phillip Bell, will be dropping by Genoa City for a super special occasion.

Cameo appearances don't get any bigger than this: The Young and the Restless' co-creator, Lee Phillip Bell, will be appearing on daytime's number one soap to help celebrate the show's 11,000th episode.

According to TV Insider, the television pioneer -- who created Y&R with her late husband, Bill Bell, back in 1973 -- will be appearing in a scene at the Genoa City Athletic Club opposite Doug Davidson (Paul Williams) and her real-life daughter, Lauralee Bell (Christine Blair).

"We won't spoil the deets," the outlet writes. "But trust us: It's super charming."
