 Davetta Sherwood as Lily Romalotti (2006) | |||||||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||||||
Lily Winters Ashby (formerly Romalotti) is a fictional character from the American CBS soap opera The Young and the Restless. Starting off as a rebellious yet naive teenager, the character became one of the series's popular heroines.[2] Stories centered around Lily included the mystery of her paternity and social issue storylines. The character also made up one half of two popular pairings, the first a young love story with Daniel Romalotti[3] and the other, a mature relationship with Cane Ashby.[2] Lily and Daniel were referred to by the portmanteau "Dily" (for Daniel and Lily)[4] and Lily and Cane were known as "Lane" (for Lily and Cane) on Internet message boards and in the press.[5][6]
Christel Khalil portrayed the character from 2002 to September 2, 2005,[7] when the actress decided to pursue a career in movies. Her departure forced the writers to change her storyline, while they looked for a recast. Several months later, Davetta Sherwood took the role. The actress played the role in 2006 before being replaced by Khalil.[8]
Khalil received Daytime Emmy nominations for the role in 2004 and 2006. She also won an NAACP Award for the part in 2008.[7] The portrayal of Lily also earned Khalil to be named one of the top 5 actresses in soap operas for the year of 2008 in Soap Opera Update.[9]
Background
Casting and awards
In August 2002, The Young and the Restless cast Christel Khalil in the role of Lily Winters.[10] The actress left the show in 2005 after garnering two nominations for Outstanding Younger Actress for the 2004 and 2006 Daytime Emmy Awards.[8][10] The show attempted to convince Khalil to return, but when that failed, they recast the role in 2006 with Davetta Sherwood.[8] "We are the same Lily, but [Christel Khalil and I are] not the same actress, so it's going to be a little different," Sherwood said.[11] Though she replaced a popular actress, Sherwood said she felt no anxiety over it because Khalil chose to vacate the role.[3] In September 2006, The Young and the Restless's former executive producer and head writer, Lynn Marie Latham, fired Sherwood and replaced her with Khalil.[8] "Christel is a brilliant actress," Latham said. "We're thrilled to have her [as] part of the Y&R family again...Davetta did a fine job, but show's generally prefer to have original players back when they can get them."[8] Both actresses received NAACP Award nominations for Lead Actress in a Daytime Drama Series in 2007.[12] The next year, Khalil won the award[7] and then gained another nomination in 2009.[13]
Writing and portrayal
Lily Winters was created in 1995 as the daughter of Drucilla Winters.[14] The story surrounding her birth was the question of her paternity with brothers Neil and Malcolm Winters as potential candidates for her father. The story continued on unresolved for years with Neil believing he fathered her.[14][15] Lily was written out of the series as the character and her mother moved to Europe. In 2002, the writers reintroduced her into the storylines as a 14 year old girl portrayed by Christel Khalil. The character was designed as an "angst-ridden" heroine who continually struggled with "trauma".[16] She was also described as strong and rebellious.[17] One of the first plots she was written into centered around the character being manipulated by internet predator Kevin Fisher, who gave her the sexually transmitted disease chlamydia.[16][18] Khalil taped public service announcements related to the story.[18] The storyline was one of Khalil's favorites. "How many soaps have really covered that? The meeting on the Internet, getting an STD, it was really great stuff," she said.[10] Lily was next involved in a Romeo and Juliet-style romance with Daniel Romalotti.[19] Khalil's departure from the series halted the story until Sherwood took over the role. Though Lily was always written and portrayed as feisty, Sherwood brought an added fire to the part.[3] "I was cast, I was told, because of my fire, but I was supposed to use my fire only when necessary," she said. Lily's "a lot like her mother. It makes sense. She spent a lot of time with her mother growing up and she's seen how her mother reacts to certain situations when there is a problem or a dilemma."[3]
In 2006, The Young and the Restless's former head writer and executive producer Jack Smith decided to resolve the story of Lily's true paternity by revealing that Malcolm, not Neil, fathered Lily.[20][15]
Well, if you think about it as a storyteller the potential for interesting drama is much more interesting if Malcolm is the biological father and not Neil. If Neil was the biological father, the whole sub textual romantic potential between Drucilla and Malcolm fades away. The relationship between Lily and Malcolm becomes your normal, traditional uncle/niece relationship. The relationship between Neil and Lily becomes your typical father/daughter relationship. But if Malcolm is the biological father then, wow! You've got the potential for years to come for fireworks.[20]
—Smith, SoapCity
The reveal was used as conflict for the already strained relationship between Lily and Drucilla. That conflict added with Drucilla and Neil's disapproval of Lily's relationship with Daniel Romalotti served as the catalyst for a plot twist in Lily and Daniel's love story that involved an underage marriage between the characters. By the time Khalil reclaimed the role, Lily changed a great deal since she last portrayed her. "The character of Lily was written very immaturely when I left," she said. "I came back and Lily is being married and living with her husband. It is more fun to be more mature but it is definitely different."[10] The Daniel and Lily plot ended with a social issue story dealing with Daniel's addiction to pornography.[16]
Lily's next storyline centered on a controversial romance with Cane and a career in modeling.[16] The couple was designed as star-crossed true loves.[13][21] The story with Lily and Cane focused on the age gap between the characters. Lily was younger than Cane. The relationship added further growth to Lily's character.[22] "She's been in kind of an immature relationship," Khalil said. "I think that being with a real man does make Lily grow up and start thinking about her life and situation in a different way. I think it will change Lily for the better."[22] Cane's portrayer, Daniel Goddard, agreed and compared the story to Lady Chatterley's Lover.[23] Stumbling blocks written into the relationship were the disapproval from Lily's family, a failed pregnancy, and interlopers, Chloe Mitchell and Billy Abbott.[24][25][26][27] Billy and Chloe were used to keep Lily and Cane apart for months with a story about the paternity of Chloe's baby. Once the truth comes out that Cane did not father of her baby and Chloe and Billy lied about it, Lily reunites with Cane.[13] In an interview with Soap Opera Digest, she expressed her happiness about the evolution of her character. "I like that she's getting more adult storylines, that she's had to deal with things like losing a baby or breaking off her engagement [to Cane]," she said. The magazine remarked that Khalil's role on the series had transitioned from a "teen star" into a "leading lady."[28]
In 2009, head writer Maria Arena Bell developed a story about ovarian cancer for Lily.[18] "The way that we're playing the struggle Lily faces is very much how it would play out in real life," Bell said. "There's days where you feel exhausted and you feel powerless... It helps that on our writing team, we have one writer who's currently suffering from breast cancer, who put a lot of her own heart and soul into this story. I myself am a survivor from two different cancer."[29] Khalil shot a public service announcement with CBS Cares about ovarian cancer and those affected by the disease.[18][30]
Wardrobe
In 2008, The Young and the Restless added a magazine publication, Restless Style, to the show which came along with a website allowing fans to view each issue. The magazine featured multiple photo shoots that affected the characters in the series. The writers incorporated Lily's return to modeling and her wedding to Cane with a Restless Style shoot for the magazine's one year anniversary.[31][32] "The whole photo shoot was [inspired by] the photos Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie did in W magazine," Khalil said. "It was about the dark side of marriage...so all the shots we did were from that shoot."[33][34] On the day the show took the pictures, Khalil stayed at the studio for almost fifteen hours since she taped scenes for the show, waited for the day's filming to end, and then posed for the pictures. To assist with the shoot, The Young and the Restless brought in an outside crew which included makeup artist Kathy Jeung, an artist who works with singer Gwen Stefani.[33] For the wardrobe in the photo shoot, Khalil wore a Dolce & Gabbana, an Elie Saab, Herve Leger, and a dress created by Sex and the City's Kristen Davis.[33][34]
For Cane and Lily's wedding, the plot called for the character to wear the dress her mother, Drucilla, wore at her wedding to Neil in the 1990s.[35][36][37] The dress Victoria Rowell wore was altered at Khalil's request. "It was old-fashioned, a typical '90s style gown, and I really didn't like it," she said.[36] She talked to The Young and the Restless's head writer Maria Arena Bell and the head of wardrobe about updating the dress.[36][37] "Maria agreed, but there were little details about the original dress that she wanted to keep," Khalil said. "They ended up making the gown strapless, but keeping things like the scalloped detailing. It became a really beautiful dress."[36]
During the character's cancer story, she shaved her head, requiring Khalil to wear hats and scarves as well as a bald cap.[38][39]
Character's background
Lily returns to Genoa City as a troubled fourteen year old in 2002. Her mother, Drucilla Winters (Victoria Rowell) took her away from Paris because Lily had gotten in trouble with her friends spreading graffiti art around the city. Dru hopes Lily's father Neil Winters (Kristoff St. John) will help reign her in, but instead it is them who help him with his own problems with alcoholism. Dru and Neil fall back in love and plan to marry, much to Lily's chagrin. She wants her mother with Wesley Carter. Over time she comes to terms with her parents relationship.
In 2004, Lily becomes the victim of the twenty-five year old online predator Kevin Fisher (Greg Rikaart), who statutorily rapes her and infects her with chlamydia, an STD. He gets away with the crime because of lack of evidence. Lily eventually forgives him when he rescues her from a man who drugs and attempts to rape her that same year. Unbeknownst to Lily, the drugging is a setup orchestrated by Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) and Kevin in an attempt to make Kevin look like a hero.
In 2005, Lily begins a relationship with Daniel. Daniel and Lily storylines include a Romeo and Juliet inspired on the run story and teenage marriage.
Lily finds out that her biological father is not Neil, but rather Neil's brother Malcolm Winters (Shemar Moore). As the truth comes out, Lily's relationship with her mother becomes strained. They reconcile before Dru is presumed dead after falling off a cliff along with Sharon Newman (Sharon Case), during an argument with Daniel's mother Phyllis (Michelle Stafford).
Lily discovers that Daniel is keeping his addiction to pornography from her. The couple undergoes counseling but ultimately end their marriage.
A mutual attraction develops between Lily and the recently divorced Cane Ashby (Daniel Goddard). Before they become an official couple, the difference in their ages becomes an obstacle for them. She is twenty and he is thirty-one. They fight their feelings before ultimately giving in and starting a romantic relationship with each other, which Neil disapproves of.
Lily wins the Fresh Faces of Jabot contest and becomes an exclusive model for Jabot Cosmetics, owned by Cane's family, the Chancellors. She does photoshoots and undergoes constant criticism from Chloe Mitchell (Elizabeth Hendrickson), Lily's modeling mentor. Chloe encourages Lily to lose weight. She realizes she is pregnant with Cane's baby. He proposes marriage to her, but she declines. Lily miscarries the baby and blames herself for the loss.
Chloe flirts with Cane behind Lily's back. After realizing she is pregnant, she decides to trick Cane into thinking he fathered her baby by taking advantage of him after he passes out. A paternity test comes back showing that Cane can not be ruled out as the father. Lily convinces Cane to marry Chloe for the baby's sake.
Cane's brother, Billy Abbott (Billy Miller), returns to Genoa City and realizes he is the father of Chloe's baby. He keeps the secret to himself and romantically pursues Lily. She starts dating him despite her initial misgivings over becoming involved with him because he is Cane's brother and the uncle of her best friend Colleen Carlton (Tammin Sursok). They engage in sex for the first time in his office at Jabot. Afterward, they agree to take the relationship slowly.
Cane and Chloe become jealous of Lily and Billy's relationship. When they find out they are spending Valentine's Day together in the mountains, Cane and Chloe, separately, go up to the cabin they are staying at. Just as Chloe arrives, Billy confesses to Lily that he is the father of Chloe's baby. Chloe goes into labor and gives birth in the cabin. After Cane discovers the truth about the baby's paternity he pursues custody of the child. Lily disagrees with the choice and refuses to marry him because of it. Cane later changes his mind and proposes to Lily again. She accepts and they marry. Shortly after marriage, Cane and Lily decide to start a family.
They break up after Lily finds out he lied about being Jill Abbott's son and pretended to believe he fathered Chloe's baby in order to continue with the ruse. Lily is later diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Her uterus is taken out during a surgery to remove the cancer, but the doctor is able to harvest two of her eggs. Lily reunites with Cane while continuing with cancer treatment, which allows their bond to become stronger. They decide to continue their plan in starting a family and pursue surrogacy options. Mackenzie Browning (Clementine Ford) agrees to act as their surrogate and becomes pregnant with Lily and Cane's twins.
Reception
While portraying Lily Winters, Khalil rose to popularity among viewers who voted her into the 2008 top actress list in Soap Opera Update The Year in Soaps[9] and into the biweekly top actress lists in Soaps In Depth.[2][40] They also voted her as the best actress on The Young and the Restless in Soap Opera Digest for multiple weeks.[41][42][43] When the actress departed the role, her successor, Sherwood, took over. Soaps In Depth criticized her and said she "got off to a slow start" when she began. The magazine then praised her for her work during the reveal that Lily's husband Daniel was responsible for her attack at the hands of her attempted rapist, Alex.[8] Khalil returned to the role in 2006 to positive viewer feedback.[10]
Lily's 2009 cancer storyline received praise from critics and viewers.[44][45][46][47] Soap Opera Weekly's Janet Di Lauro praised the story for highlighting Neil and Lily's relationship. They "are one of the most effective and heart felt father/daughter combos in daytime," she said. "Kristoff St. John and Christel Khalil share a chemistry that lets the viewers feel Neil's pain when Lily is hurting, and relate to his anger when she has been wronged."[48] Di Lauro also criticized the writers of The Young and the Restless for putting a young character like Lily through a series of traumatic stories, including the cancer and hysterectomy.[48] Soap Opera Digest named the cancer story editor's choice and .[49]
Soap Opera Weekly's Di Lauro also praised Khalil for her performance during the death of Lily's best friend Colleen Carlton.[50] Di Lauro considered Lily and Colleen's last scenes to be "a bona fide tearjerker" and "one of the most touching scenes to air during Colleen's last days."[51] "Lily could have easily fallen apart and chastised Colleen for leaving her during her house of need," Di Lauro said. "Instead, she held her head high and gave Colleen a proper sendoff... It was as if Lily was gathering strength from Colleen, even as Colleen let go."[51]
Romance
Two of the romantic pairings the character was part of also became successful. The first, Daniel and Lily, gained viewer support during both actress's reigns.[3][4][52] The couple began during Khalil's first tenure, continued through Sherwood's time on the show, and went into Khalil's second stint.[4][16] Soaps In Depth labeled Daniel and Lily a dynamic duo and listed them among the 100 great soap opera couples.[19][53] The magazine also labeled the scene where Daniel and Lily engage in sex before going on the run, as one of the top three moments of 2005.[52] Roscoe Born (Tom Fisher) praised their storyline. "It really brought the two families into so much conflict, and I thought they were very believable as young lovers," Born said. "They were very passionate, and at the same time, really evoked that feeling of first love."[52] When the character's broke up and moved into different sphere's on the show, fans of the couple expressed disappointment.[16]
Despite the disappointment from that fanbase, the Lily character became involved in a romance with Cane Ashby that received both positive and negative feedback from viewers and critics. Fans of the series were split on whether the couple should be together or not because of the gap in age between the characters.[54][16] "I'm sure there are going to be people who will always feel that Cane is too old for Lily, but there are people out there who don't care about the age difference," Khalil said. "You can't please everyone. You just have to do your best with the storyline and hope that people will like it."[16] Soap Opera Digest gave the pairing a thumbs up and said, "On paper, a Cane and Lily pairing shouldn't work. They've both just left marriages (to Amber and Daniel, though Cane's wasn't legal), their exes are living together, and Cane is older than Lily. Yet, the adorable Aussie and the cute coed make a charming match."[55] The magazine also praised the couple because putting them together united the two core families, the Winters and the Chancellors.[55] Soap Opera Weekly considered their Valentine's day surprise a hit.[56]
Michael Fairman referred to Cane and Lily as "one of daytimes's most popular couples" and considered their story with Billy and Chloe as "one of soaps all-time best quadrangle story arcs."[13] Soap Opera Digest's Mallory Harlen praised the quadrangle for adding another layer to Lily. "The always prim, always perfect Lily reminded me way too much of Christine Blair...in a bad way," Harlen said. "But being a woman scorned really worked for her; her new found feistiness is completely fitting for Drucilla's daughter."[57] TV Guide Canada's Nelson Branco criticized the pairing for having, in his opinion, no chemistry and said he wanted Cane "in the big leagues and not with little girls." He also mentioned how the pairing developed "a very vocal, and loyal fanbase."[58] Soap Opera Update named Cane and Lily the best couple on The Young and the Restless for 2008. Also in that issue, viewers voted them the second most romantic couple in all of soap operas.[9] Fans also voted them into the top couple lists in Soaps In Depth[2][40] and they voted them as best couple for The Young and the Restless in Soap Opera Digest for multiple weeks.[41][42][43]
