The Young and the Restless

Though she's believed to have fallen to her death nearly a year ago, Drucilla Winters may still resurface. So believe many fans of The Young and the Restless.

While CBS refuses to comment publicly, soapcentral.com has learned that the network is actively seeking a way to bring actress Victoria Rowell back into the fold.

The portrayer of Winters, who left the show in April 2007 amid reports of hurt feelings and frustration with the direction of the show, states that she is "open" to a possible The Young and the Restless return.

"Before Christmas, through my representative, there was a dialogue with the CBS brass regarding [the] re-entry of Drucilla Winters," Rowell said. "The ball is in The Young and the Restless court. I think it's important that the fans know that I'm open to coming back and now we're waiting for an answer. That's absolutely the case."
