Plot twist off-screen! Cait Fairbanks (aka Tessa) was MIA for The Young and the Restless’ final 2025 episode—turns out she caught COVID and had to skip the last day of filming. She shared her feels on Insta, saying she’s grateful for the wild year and all the love from cast and fans. With her character’s love triangle heating up and a real-life engagement, Cait’s got a lot to look forward to in 2026! #Health #BodyHealth #YR
