Heather Stevens is a fictional character from the American CBS soap opera ''The Young and the Restless''. Created by William J. Bell, she was born onscreen in 1979 as the daughter of Paul Williams (Doug Davidson) and April Stevens (Cindy Eilbacher). She was first portrayed by a series of child actors for her first three-year period, followed by Conci Nelson as a teenager. In 2007, the character was reintroduced by former head writer Lynn Marie Latham as an adult, portrayed by Vail Bloom. At first, she is unaware that she is Paul's daughter, but they develop a father-daughter relationship. She becomes district attorney and later a high-profile lawyer. Upon her return, she develops a romance with villain Adam Newman (Chris Engen), which received fan support. In 2010, Bloom announced her exit from the soap opera in order to pursue other career opportunities. The role was then recast with Eden Riegel, who accepted the role after declining to return to her iconic role as Bianca Montgomery on ABC's ''All My Children''. Riegel would portray the character for a year until she was let go, with her last appearance in November 2011. Seven months later, Jennifer Landon became the second recast for the role, but within five months of joining the cast, she too was let go due to budgetary cuts. She made her last appearance on November 2, 2012. ==Casting== The role was first portrayed by twin infants Dana and Lauren Schankman in 1979, followed by Claire and Elizabeth Schoene until 1982. In 1993, the character returned as a teenager portrayed by Conci Nelson, daughter of former head writer Kay Alden. Nelson departed after a year in 1994. In 2007, it was announced that Bloom, a newcomer to daytime television, would join the cast as an adult version of the character. She made her first appearance on July 13. In 2009, speculation arose that Bloom was preparing to vacate the role, but all rumors were denied. In March 2010, Bloom announced her exit from the soap opera to pursue other career opportunities, as confirmed in a statement from her publicist. Riegel was then announced to be replacing Bloom in the role, after declining to return to her iconic role on ''All My Children''. Bloom made her final appearance on April 6, 2010, with Riegel taking over on April 20. In September 2011, after returning onscreen from a maternity leave, it was announced that Riegel would be leaving the role and exited on November 4. Seven months later, Landon became the second recast for the role and made her debut on June 7, 2012. However, after less than five months with ''The Young and the Restless'', it was announced that Landon was to exit reportedly due to budgetary cuts. Onscreen, the actress departed without a proper exit on November 2, 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Heather Stevens」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
