The Young and the Restless stars Lauralee Bell and Michael Damian reflected on learning that their characters, Christine “Cricket” Blair and Danny Romalotti, finally get engaged on the Thursday, July 10, episode.
“We were super, super excited,” Bell, 56, told People of the storyline in a Wednesday, July 9, interview. “Because it’s been 35 years in the making.”
Cricket and Danny first got married 35 years ago during a destination wedding in Hawaii. However, their love story started years earlier when teenage Cricket had a crush on Danny. Despite making it down the aisle, their first marriage came to an end when Danny slept with fan Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford). Phyllis later gave birth to their son, Daniel, though Danny later learned that Daniel was never biologically his.
While reflecting on the characters' recent engagement, Bell said that it came at the perfect time because so many of the longtime characters are “in a different place in life" and are trying to remember "safe and good" times.
“And we were a part of that time for them, and now here we are coming back into their lives when maybe their kids are now moved out or at college or whatever,” she said. “We're reminiscent of those fun days where we all feel like we're still young and we'd give anything to go back to that time. So we're just very grateful that that group has stuck with us and is going to be so excited.”

Meanwhile, Damian said the "nostalgia" of their relationship is "beautiful." When guessing the fans reactions, he added, “I think that they're like, ‘Oh, my God, finally.'"
“And we couldn't wait much longer because … if one of us has to get down on a knee, perhaps it's not going to be any prettier in 10 years,” Bell jokingly added.
When it comes to the couples’ upcoming on-screen wedding, neither Bell nor Damian know how it will unfold.
“It's fun because I can imagine that there will be six people there or maybe half the cast. I have no idea,” she said, adding that she will take fans behind the scenes of filming the wedding via Instagram.
