NJ Soap Opera Actor Fired For Breaking COVID-19 Protocol: Report
]
Actor and New Jersey native Richard Burgi has been fired from “The Young and the Restless” for violating the CBS show’s COVID-19 protocol, Variety reports.
The 63-year-old Montclair native announced the news in an Instagram live post on Jan. 11, saying he “naively and inadvertently violated the show’s COVID-19 policy,” the outlet says.
Burgi apparently tested positive for COVID-19 over Christmas, waited five days, and produced two negative test results before returning to the production set. The breach occurred because the show’s guidelines state that anyone who tests positive must wait 10 days before coming back.
According to the CDC’s recommendations issued on Dec. 27, those who test positive for COVID-19 and are asymptomatic should be isolated for no more than five days.
Burgi was known for playing Ashland Locke on the daytime soap opera since March 2021.

Y&R Spoilers For January 13: Ashland Questions If Billy’s Changed
]
The Y&R spoilers for Thursday, January 13, 2022, redefine soap opera triangles, as Ashland Locke and Victoria Newman Locke ponder Billy Abbott’s about-face, Chelsea Lawson pretends to play nice with Sally Spectra over Adam Newman, and Victor Newman and Nikki Newman are the couple trapped in the middle of various warring factions.
The Y&R Spoilers Highlights
In order to prove who really is the boss, Billy (Jason Thompson) cut off his nose to spite his face, nipped his brilliant plan against Adam (Mark Grossman) in the bud, and agreed to become Lily Winters’s (Christel Khalil) COO.
That’ll show his ex-wife! Victoria (Amelia Heinle) is willing to believe that Billy has turned over a new leaf and will no longer be a problem for her. Ashland (Richard Burgi) isn’t so sure. After all, who knows more about constantly assuming new personalities than this guy?
Y&R: Why Do You Assume You’re the Smartest in the Room?
Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) figures she has the ultimate trump card over Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) where Adam is concerned – Connor Newman’s (Judah Mackey) incessant whining, and Adam’s amazing ability to fall for it. Every. Single. Time.
Plus, Sally is on her way to New York for business, meaning the coast is clear for Chelsea to keep circling Adam until he falls into her arms again. But then she finds out Adam also has a trip back East planned. And that means it’s time for another friendly chat with Sally.
Y&R Spoilers: Sort It Out
Victoria came to Victor (Eric Braeden) and asked him to sell out Adam. Nicholas Newman (Joshua Morrow) wants Noah Newman (Rory Gibson) to quit his job working for Victor and Adam and come work for Nick. And poor Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) is once again stuck in the middle.
In case you missed it, there were some incredible performances last week on The Young and the Restless, and Soap Hub had a hard time choosing exactly who should be awarded Performer of the Week honors. Find out which actor made the cut and why by clicking here.
