It's been an exciting year for The Young and the Restless' Mishael Morgan (Hilary Curtis), who has been front and center in an emotional storyline that had her Genoa City alter ego betraying her on-screen husband in the worst of ways: sleeping with his son. But the actress' real life is currently just as exciting, albeit in a very different way.

According to Soap Opera Digest, Morgan and her husband are expecting a baby this August. And for those who are wondering, a rep for the show says no, the pregnancy will not be written into Hilary's current storyline.

The actress joined Y&R in June of 2013. This will be the couple's first child.
