The Young And The Restless: Cast Share Their Emotions About Kristoff St. John

Kristoff St. John’s death has been one of the most unfortunate events in the history of The Young and The Restless. The tragic death not only changed the entire storyline of The Young and The Restless but also devastated his co-stars. As a result, the writers dedicated almost an entire week’s episodes as a tribute to the very talented and beloved actor. Let’s take a look at how the rest of the cast paid their tribute to the legendary star.
Victoria Rowell recalls the time when Bill found her on-screen love interest. She also mentions that it felt effortless to work with him. Shemar Moore reminisces his audition where Kristoff wanted him to play his brother. His exact words were ” I want ‘the scared kid with the baseball hat on backwards to play my brother’. He’s got a long way to go but I know he can do it.” Peter Bergman also talks about John with some fond memories. He has known him for 37 years. Mishael Morgan also goes on to say in a broken voice describing how good Kristoff made them all feel.

What Did Christel Khalil Have To Say?

Christel Khalil talks about a scene with Kristoff where she actually felt she was speaking to her dad. Even Kristoff once pointed out that he thinks of Christel Khalil as a daughter. The bond between them was impeccable. She also mentioned that she did not have much of a relationship with her real dad. Kristoff perfectly fulfilled that role. He also gifted her something on her every birthday. She then started to tear up and said that she thought she was done crying. The sudden death has left her heartbroken.
Christel Khalil also pointed out that the majority of the cast members were literally kids when they joined. It was Kristoff who made it so easy on them and also made them feel at home. She is one of Kristoff’s co-stars who was extremely attached to him and is finding it really difficult to cope with the sudden and tragic loss.
