Delia Abbott’s death remains one of the most controversial storylines in The Young and the Restless history. In this Y&R Retro recap, we revisit the events surrounding the 2013 tragedy — from the night of the accident, to Adam Newman’s role, Billy Abbott’s guilt, Chloe Mitchell’s grief, and the aftermath that changed Genoa City for years.
