Elena is returning to Genoa City, according to Young and the Restless (Y&R), and viewers can expect to see her on the soap's 13,000th episode, which airs on November 13.

Brytni stated this in a recent Instagram Story, so what is the cause for Elena's abrupt return?

According to Y&R teasers, Elena last appeared in a plotline in the summer of 2023 as the acting doctor over a very pregnant Sally.

Elena Returns, But Is She Holding the Key to Baby Ava’s Fate?

Sally experienced a medical emergency while pregnant, and Adam was given a choice: save the baby or save Sally.

He selected Sally, and Elena wasn't heard from again. Many followers refused to accept that Sally had lost her baby.

In reality, there was speculation on social media that Baby Ava may have survived, and that someone bribed Elena to pretend that the child had died.

After all, Victoria and Cole assumed their baby daughter died, and look what happened!

Some Y&R viewers reasoned that Elena was too kind to be engaged in such an incident; nonetheless, even the greatest people are occasionally driven into dreadful situations.

Y&R reminds viewers how different things are between Sally and Adam right now.

While they eventually reunited, Connor's obsessive-compulsive disease (OCD) changed things for Adam, who became closer to his ex.

Is Baby Ava Still Alive, and What’s Elena Hiding?

Chelsea, and they had a one-night stand. When the truth was revealed, Sally and Billy bonded over their shared sentiments of betrayal.

By November, there's a strong probability Billy and Sally will have formed a relationship or slept together.

Chelsea and Adam may consider a reunion as Billy and Sally's relationship grows stronger.

Still, if Adam and Sally discovered that Baby Ava was indeed alive, how would the love relationship between all four persons engaged in this highly compelling plot change?

After all, why is Elena back for the 13000th episode?

She hasn't been absent from the program in a long time, so there are no sentimental sentiments if she reappears.

However, the idea that she's only returning for a milestone episode appears strange.

She must be returning with a significant narrative, therefore may she announce Ally's baby child is still alive?

Why do you believe Elena is returning? Baby Ava’s twist?
