Is Mariah Leaving The Young and the Restless?
Some people are asking, is Mariah leaving The Young and the Restless? She’s been missing from scenes, pretty much vanishing while the show jumped into all that France drama. It’s not the first time Mariah suddenly goes quiet, either. Viewers always notice, ’cause honestly, Camryn Grimes has made Mariah such a huge part of the show’s heart. But right now, there’s no solid reason to worry about her saying goodbye for good.
Lately, a buzz, partly because Mariah admitted to smothering some old man — nothing’s been tied up with that storyline, and fans get antsy. But after all the France stuff winds down, the show’s moving back toward Mariah’s storyline. No announcements say she’s out, and there are no hints she wants to leave either. So even if she’s off-screen for a bit, it doesn’t mean she’s finished.
Who Plays Mariah on The Young and the Restless?
Time for some love for Camryn Grimes. She’s played Mariah since 2014, but was part of Y&R way before that — remember Cassie Newman? Grimes first showed up in 1997 as Cassie, and when Cassie died, soap producers did something rare and brought Grimes back as Mariah, Cassie’s long-lost twin. Fans got attached both times.
Camryn Grimes has made Mariah a different character from Cassie ever was. She’s fierce, she makes mistakes, she loves hard. Grimes stands out for the way she gives Mariah all those complicated layers. She’s not afraid to let the character mess up and try again. No wonder so many people root for her, even when a storyline goes sideways.

Where is Mariah on The Young and the Restless?
Mariah's absence made a lot of people worry, and when a beloved face isn’t around for a few weeks, fans get restless. It’s fair. She’s not gone, though — writers just sent her story to the back burner while focusing on France. This kind of thing happens on soaps. Sometimes even big characters take a break (probably so the writers can build up suspense for the next twist).
Mariah’s current arc is still alive, especially with everything up in the air after that shocking confession. Tessa, her partner, has been picking up the emotional slack, sharing more scenes with Daniel, which gives the Mariah story a little room to breathe before the next storm hits.
