Billy Miller out, David Tom returning as Y&R's Billy

It's now official: two-time Emmy winner Billy J. Miller is out as Billy Abbott on The Young and the Restless. Fellow Emmy winner David Tom will take over the role, a role he previously played from 1999 to 2002.

"I just heard. So sad. A great actor and a great human being. Best of luck dear friend," Doug Davidson wrote, posting a photo with Miller at this year's Daytime Emmys."Yes, I'm sad about one Billy and excited about the other," Jess Walton. "Broken hearted to see Billy Miller leave the show. I know he'll be successful in the next chapter of his, but I'm so sorry to see him leave. Very few things are black and white. It's okay to be sad to see Billy Miller go AND be excited to have David Tom back!Guess my tweet was too cryptic.....found out Billy Miller is leaving....I am not happy about it. I am going to bed to pout :( " - morrow
