Soap fans often get excited when their favorite characters make a comeback on their beloved shows. One such character that fans have longed to see return is Olivia Barber Winters from "The Young and the Restless" (Y&R). Tonya Williams, the actress who brought Olivia to life, frequently fields questions about whether she would ever reprise her role. However, much to the disappointment of many, her answer remains a firm no.

In an interview with SheKnowsSoaps, Tonya Williams shared her thoughts on the matter. "The show is fantastic, by the way," she began. "I left on great terms. I absolutely love the show. It has nothing to do with the show." Williams explained her feelings using a relatable analogy: "Have you ever dated someone for a long time and you don’t want to date them anymore? And you have broken up with them and like, 10, 15 years have passed and people are saying, ‘Would you go back with that guy?’ I’m like, ‘No.’ Because you’re a different person now.” #YR #TonyaWilliams #OliviaBarber
