Y&R’s Christel Khalil Reveals Her New Son’s Name!

She’s already back from her maternity leave and playing Lily on THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS again but Christel Khalil has been very private about welcoming her second child into the world. 

The actress quietly announced her pregnancy back in June 2023 by showing off her baby bump in a video she posted to Instagram. Then, in October, Khalil and fiancée Sam Restagno celebrated her baby shower, revealing that they were expecting a boy. And in February 2024, she reported that her maternity leave was over and she was back on set at Y&R.

While Khalil is still keeping her new baby boy off social media, she did reveal in a March 19 post that her son’s name is Remy when she shared a video showing off the beautiful nursery they decorated for him. “Nursery reveal!” she wrote .”So in love with the peaceful vibes for our baby Remy thanks to Babyletto!”

In the video, set to “So This Is Love” from Cinderella, Khalil opens the door to the nursery and steps inside, panning around to show off the softly-lit cream-colored room, including the Yuzu crib and Yuzu dresser that she loves so much. A flag emblazoned with the letter “R” hangs above the crib and wooden block letters spell out Remy’s name on the bookshelf opposite.

After adjusting the curtains, Khalil picks up the camera again and sits down in the nursery recliner, a glowing smile on her face. Clearly, mother and son are doing just wonderfully and are very happy. And perhaps one day, she’ll share Remy with the world.
