Soapy Sunday: Matthew Atkinson on The Young and the Restless (2015)

Since the blog last featured Matthew Atkinson in September, the hunky actor's stay in Genoa City has been extended. Matthew is now a full-time cast member on The Young and the Restless and that means more opportunities for shirtlessness from the actor. Matthew's character, Austin Travers, got shirtless again during the January 8th episode of the daytime drama as Austin and his wife Summer got steamy inside the bar where Austin has been working. While the romance didn't last long in the hour, Austin was later caught off-guard by a kiss from his co-worker, the troubled Mariah, who also happens to be the kinda-but-not-really daughter of his boss and therefore the kinda-but-not-really stepsister of his wife. Just another complication of soap opera life.
