Wondering where Traci and Ashley Abbott went after their sudden disappearance from The Young and the Restless? Following an emotional storyline involving betrayal and heartbreak, the Abbott sisters quietly exited Genoa City. With fans speculating about their absence, the show revealed their new destination and what lies ahead.

Here’s where Traci and Ashley are now and what prompted their departure.

Did Beth Maitland’s Traci and Eileen Davison’s Ashley leave The Young and the Restless?

Beth Maitland’s Traci Abbott and Eileen Davidson’s Ashley Abbott have exited The Young and the Restless as of April 2025.

On the April 14 episode, Traci told Jack and Diane that she was leaving for New York. It is not just Traci, but Ashley is also joining her sister.

Traci last appeared in a storyline involving Dr. Alan Laurent, whom she planned to marry. She later discovered Alan was actually his twin, Martin. After learning the truth, Traci chose to leave Genoa City. She stated she wanted to move forward with her life and begin writing a new book. Ashley, still recovering from personal challenges, decided to accompany her.

This is not the first time the sisters left together. Traci previously stayed with Ashley in Paris while Ashley managed her mental health. Their current departure mirrors that earlier storyline.

In an interview with Soap Opera Digest published April 14, 2025, Maitland said, “After this, she’s certainly going to be more cautious and she’s going to be suspicious and it might be really hard for her to be willing to trust again.” She added, “We can’t let Traci go through this again!” referring to the ordeal with Martin.

Maitland explained that her character blamed herself for not running a background check. “She blames herself and kicks herself for not being more eager to do a background check, so yeah, we’ll hire a detective if we have to,” she said.

In a March 2025 interview with TV Insider, Maitland stated, “She has people that matter to her, she has purpose, and she has a career that she also loves.”
