On July 14, 2025, Jermaine Rivers said farewell to his character, Damian, on an episode of “The Young and the Restless.” This sudden departure took many fans by surprise, leaving them breathless. The murder of Damian is likely to significantly impact the show’s narrative moving forward, especially with Cane being involved. However, it’s also plausible that if Damian had lived, his character could have offered intriguing storylines as well. Rivers believes there was a great potential for Damian’s character if he had remained alive.
Jermaine Rivers wanted Damian to have ‘more scenes with Cane’ in The Young and the Restless
Jermaine Rivers’ storyline concluded without much controversy, encompassing a captivating tale of friendship with Lily, a fierce rivalry with Cane, and a shocking climax involving a murder that may have far-reaching consequences. In the end, Damian exited The Young and the Restless in a dramatic fashion, leaving an indelible impression on viewers for many years to come.
However, Jermaine Rivers, the actor who brought Damian’s character to life, feels that if Damian were still alive, there would be additional dimensions to explore, such as a potential rivalry with Cane. He expressed these thoughts during a recent interview with Soap Opera Digest following his departure from the series.
The actor mused, “It might have been quite intriguing to include more scenes involving Cane, as we’ve become adversaries now.” He further explained, “Given the narrative at this point, Lily made her choice with Damian. So it would have been captivating to revisit Genoa City and explore that underlying tension.
The actor went on to say, “The chess match could have involved me and Cane. Moreover, it could have shown the development of my relationship with mom [Amy], the reinforcement of my bond with Nate, and the attempt to rekindle the friendship with Holden. I believe there were numerous aspects that would have made for compelling viewing and acting.
Fans of “The Young and the Restless” might easily envision such an event as thrilling. However, the series opted for a different direction, which could potentially lead to equally impressive outcomes.
In this interview, Jermaine Rivers confirmed his departure and expressed fondness for the show’s team, stating that he will dearly miss them. Fans may look forward to seeing Rivers on a different screen production in the future.
