Posted by Mittie Cheatwood on Wednesday, June 19, 2024

2022 has proven to be quite a year thus far for "The Young and the Restless" actress Camryn Grimes. In January, People reported that Grimes was engaged to fellow actor Brock Powell, who proposed on her birthday. Then in March, Grimes celebrated 25 years on the set of "Y&R" since she first made her debut as Cassie. The soap fĂȘted her with cake and balloons, as Grimes took to social media to pay tribute to her two famous roles. "25 years ago this little girl found a lucky penny and I am still in awe of the luck we've had since," Grimes wrote on Instagram next to a photo of her first scene on the show, when Cassie got off the school bus and found a penny on her way into her house. "I found purpose, motivation, drive, responsibility, creativity, friends, family and a whole mess of fun. Thanks for sticking with me, here's to the luck not running out!"

Not to be outdone, "Y&R" itself remembered some of Grimes' early scenes as Cassie in a short compilation video on Instagram. In the video, the actress is seen getting to know her real mom, Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) and Sharon's husband, Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow), who legally became her dad. The video also included present-day clips of Mariah becoming engaged to longtime girlfriend Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) in February of 2022. Clearly, big congrats are in order for Grimes!
