‘The Young And The Restless’ (Y&R) spoilers show that Beth Maitland (Traci Abbott) has been a fan-favorite for years and her storylines have encompassed several real-world situations and most notably about weight.
During an interview, Maitland discussed some of her storylines, such as being addicted to diet pills, and ended by saying that she feels like she represents normal people. This certainly feels like a powerful statement and she feels like our favorite aunt that we love no matter how she looks.
“I feel like I’m someone who represents normal people surrounded in glamour” – @bethmaitlanddqb of @youngandrestlesscbs

This clip has started circulating all around social media, even ending up on Y&R’s official Instagram page where fans were thrilled by her statement and began sharing why Traci was their favorite Abbott.
It is difficult not to love her as she is always cheery, full of glee, and will sit down and speak with anyone. She was even kind to Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) when she showed up at the house the other day! It is easy to see why people love her, and this may make her even more fans.
Some viewers commented on the clip saying, “Beth Maitland is a treasure and deserves to be celebrated!”, “Why can’t we see more of this amazing actor? Instead we have to yawn through characters like boring Nate, prissy Lily, and whining Sally!”, and “I’ve always admired Beth, have watched her from the beginning.”
We love Traci Abbott and Beth Maitland and wish we could see her more on-screen. She is one of the most beloved characters, so why not showcase her more to the fans?
