Amber Christine Walton Biography & Facts

Danny Romalotti is a fictional character from the CBS soap opera The Young and the Restless, portrayed by Michael Damian. The character of Danny first appeared in Genoa City, the town where Y&R is set, in 1981. Damian and his character Danny exited the show in 1998, though Danny has returned on several occasions in 2002, 2003 to 2004, 2008, 2012 to 2013, and 2022 to 2023. A rock star, the character is known for his relationships with Traci Abbott, Lauren Fenmore, Christine "Cricket" Blair, and Phyllis Summers. Storylines 1981–98 Danny began his career at 16 years old in 1981 as a teenage rock star doing concerts in Genoa City. He was often joined by his sister, Gina Roma (Patty Weaver), and his friends Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland), Lauren Fenmore (Tracey E. Bregman), and Amy Lewis (Stephanie E. Williams), who sang with him when he performed on stage. Lauren also joined him on the road for a time. In 1984, Danny married friend and fan club president, Traci Abbott, when she became pregnant by her college professor, Tim Sullivan. Danny had been seeing Patty Williams, who left town devastated. Danny and Traci's marriage was later annulled after she miscarried. Danny became a rock star, toured worldwide and recorded many albums, but home was always Genoa City, where he returned nearly ever summer to do a big concert. He once lost his voice after being slowly poisoned by Shawn Garrett, who was jealous of his relationship with Lauren. He was told he'd never sing again, but he had a miracle recovery during a Christmas Eve church service. In 1987, Danny and Gina's father, Brian Romalotti (Quinn Redeker), turned up in Genoa City, a homeless drifter just out of prison. He was molded and renamed by Jill Foster Abbott (Jess Walton) as "Rex Sterling" in order to con Kay Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper). Then, Rex and Kay fell in love, and he became a "good guy" after all. They married in 1988, and again in 1992. Danny, Gina and Rex ended up becoming very close until Rex's untimely death in 1994. Though the much younger Cricket Blair (Lauralee Bell), now using her given name, Christine, had been thought a mere kid in Danny's eyes, the two began to date; and, as fate would have it, soon fell deeply in love. Cricket's recently widowed best friend, Nina Chancellor (Tricia Cast), was, at this time, being pursued romantically by David Kimble (Michael Corbett). Danny and Christine became convinced that Kimble was a gold digger and after Nina's residual inheritance. The two tried to disrupt the relationship; and, in consequence, David set up Danny to be arrested on false charges of cocaine possession. The conspiracy was exposed during his trial and Danny was thus acquitted; David however was never implicated in the crime. In 1990, Danny and Christine were married in a lavish Hawaiian wedding and honeymoon where Nina and David stood up for them. In 1991, David Kimble redoubled his efforts to get his slimy hands on Nina's fortune. In the midst of a masquerade ball, and while disguised in a costume similar to that of Danny Romalotti's, David attempted to murder both Christine and Nina. Genoa City Detective Paul Williams (Doug Davidson) foiled the plan in time to save the two. Later, as Paul pursued and ultimately closed in upon David Kimble, a nearly cornered Kimble escaped down an industrial garbage chute, landing almost Lucas-like into a trash compactor. Attempting to climb out, he inadvertently started the compacting action; and it was there, with Christine and Danny looking on, that Kimble was smooshed to death. Life, such that it was for the young couple, soon found Danny and his bride Christine living a happy young married life—Christine discovering notoriety and success as a prominent trial attorney, and Danny, whilst on the road, touring, finding an altogether different kind of fame for his increasingly popular music. Over time, Christine's boss, Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc) became obsessed with Christine; his unwanted attention leading to accusations of sexual harassment. Chris filed charges against Michael who was ultimately fired from the firm. He quickly married Hilary Lancaster in 1992. Being the brilliant lawyer that he was, Michael was soon working for another competing law firmstine, Michael arranged for a woman named Rebecca to pose for photos with adrugged Danny. He used the photos in his trial to insinuate that Christine made the advances since Danny was cheating on her. Christine got Hilary to testify against Michael; he was found guilty, and he was censured by the State Supreme Court. Danny temporarily left town to appear on Broadway in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, as did Michael Damian in real life. The show was renewed, causing Danny to stay away much too long. His marriage to Christine began to suffer, and she began to spend more time with Paul Williams. While in New York, Danny was stalked by Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford), an obsessed fan. She drugged him, got him into her bed, and then she claimed to be pregnant with his child. Danny divorced Christine in 1994, and he married Phyllis to do right by the child. Once Danny realized how manipulative his new wife was, he divorced her in 1996. Danny began to see Phyllis in a new light after their son, Daniel Romalotti, Jr., contracted bacterial meningitis. Danny then remarried Phyllis in 1997, and Christine and Paul stood up for them. Christine and Paul planted enough doubt in Danny's mind that he ordered a paternity test on his "son". Danny was devastated to discover that Daniel Jr.'s father was really Brian Hamilton, a fling of Phyllis' from her past. She had set Danny up the entire time. However, Danny was Daniel's legal father on his birth certificate, and he still had parental rights. A vicious divorce and custody battle ensued; Christine was Danny's lawyer, and the recently paroled Michael Baldwin served as Phyllis' lawyer. Shortly after, Phyllis and Michael began a wild affair. With the help of Brian Hamilton, all of Phyllis's lies and manipulations were brought out in court – including the fact that Phyllis drugged Danny, and she tricked him into thinking they had sex, which was also false. The court found Phyllis to be unstable and an unfit mother. Danny won custody of Daniel, and Phyllis was allowed visitation rights. Just as Paul and Christine were about to be married, Danny decided that he wanted her back. He got Christine to reminisce with him about their past, and Paul walked in on the two of them making love. Paul forgave Christine, but he and Danny began a contest for Christine's love, pressuring her to make a decision. Before she could make up her mind, Danny was attacked by a mugger, and he received major kidney damage; he needed a transplant to survive. His sister, Gina, as well as Paul, Phyllis and Christine were all ruled out as possible donors; things began to look bleak. In a last-ditch effort to prove to Christine that he was a changed man, Michael Baldwin came to the .... Discover the Amber Christine Walton popular books.
