Lauralee Bell Shares Gratitude After YR Fan Club Event
“So many to thank for Saturday’s beautiful Fan Club event,” Bell wrote, giving special recognition to Cathy Tomas (@cathyatomas) and her team for organizing and welcoming devoted viewers from around the world. She also praised the efforts of Matty Kane (@mattykane1), Ashleigh Sigal (@ashleighsigal), and the YR office family, who helped ensure everything ran seamlessly.
But the highlight for Bell was meeting the fans face-to-face. “It’s so fun to hear how excited you are about the show, how long you watched, and from where you had flown in from!” she shared.
Bell went on to extend her appreciation to everyone in attendance, as well as the show’s entire fanbase:
“To all who came thank you so much! To ALL our viewers THANK YOU! #thereisnouswithoutyou”
Adding a personal touch, Bell mentioned how special it was to have her daughter by her side to help capture the event, allowing her to show firsthand the warmth and dedication of the YR audience. She also delighted in seeing the beloved #BugSquad 🦗 in attendance, which brought a smile to her face.
The actress closed with an outpouring of love and appreciation:
“We appreciate you ALL ❤️”
With her message, Lauralee Bell once again underscored the unique bond between The Young and the Restless cast and their loyal fans — a relationship that has helped keep Genoa City’s stories alive and thriving for over five decades.
