Brytni Sarpy’s Real-Life Breakup Reason Behind Y&R Exit

It’s official—Brytni Sarpy, known for her role as Elena Dawson on The Young and the Restless, and her co-star Brighton James, who played Devon Hamilton, have called it quits in real life. Fans were shocked when Brighton introduced his new girlfriend, Jara Myers, to the public, and many are now wondering if this is the reason Brytni has suddenly disappeared from the show.

Brytni joined Y&R in 2019 and quickly became a fan favorite. Her on-screen chemistry with Brighton was undeniable, and it quickly blossomed into a real-life romance. The two had been dating for about four years, but recently, it became apparent that something had changed. Both stars deleted their past photos together from their social media accounts, leading fans to speculate about a breakup. Neither Brytni nor Brighton confirmed the split, but they continued to follow each other online—until early January, when Brighton posted a subtle picture of his feet in matching slippers with Jara, which she commented on with two emojis, signaling their growing relationship.

By February, the couple made their relationship official, with Brighton posting a photo of him kissing Jara on the cheek, and fans reacted with mixed emotions. While many were happy for Brighton and Jara, others couldn’t help but reminisce about his chemistry with Brytni.

Jara Myers is a 24-year-old LA-based pro dancer, model, and movement artist, known for her impressive performances at events like the Super Bowl with Usher. As for Brytni, her recent absence from Y&R has left fans wondering if the breakup could be related to her exit from the show. While it’s unclear if the breakup influenced her decision, it’s certainly a possibility, as personal relationships can sometimes spill over into professional life.
