Following a recent update to the show’s closing credits, actor Nathan Owens has been upped to contract status with CBS’ “The Young and the Restless” after first joining the show on a recurring basis earlier this year.

Making his daytime debut in 2012 playing the role of Cameron Davis on “Days of our Lives,” Owens joined the cast of “The Young and the Restless” earlier this year as a man impersonating Damian Kane, the son of Amy Lewis  (Valerie Pettiford) who she had sought out to find to reunite him with his half-brother, Nate Hasting (Sean Dominic).

Ultimately, it turned out that Damian” was Holden Novak, an associate of the real Damian Kane (Jermaine Rivers), who had wondered what game his mother was playing, not realizing at the time that she was dying of leukemia.

While the show does not comment on actor contracts, Owen’s name had previously appeared under the recurring cast section of the end credits, a list that also includes Tracey Bregman (Lauren Fenmore Baldwin), Cait Fairbanks (Tessa Porter), Conner Floyd (Phillip “Chance” Chancellor IV), Elizabeth Hendrickson (Chloe Mitchell), Judah Mackey (Connor Newman) and Beth Maitland (Traci Abbott), among others.

As of this week, Owen’s name now appears just before Jermaine Rivers as the show lists its contract cast alphabetically by last name.

Following his run at “Days of our Lives,” Owens went on to star in Lifetime’s “Devious Maids,” and appeared in episodes of “The Carmichael Show” on NBC, the short-lived Hulu series “Dollface,” FOX’s “9-1-1: Lone Star,” and more recently, the TV movie “A Season to Remember,” which aired on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network, part of the network’s OWN for the Holidays programming event, among others.

Very cool for him.

The screenshot shows Melissa Ordway in the contract  cast and she was officially made recurring so it is all a bit confusing.

yeah Ordway announced back in November that she's on recurring; but the credits were never changed after she announced it -- she's remained in the contract section of the credits.

She's one of the three I mentioned in the other post that the show has kept listed as being on contract even though they aren't, unless, of course, that changed in her case based on her recent return. Of course, they never removed her, as you noted, so who knows?
