Christine Blair is a fictional character from The Young and the Restless, an American soap opera on the CBS network, portrayed by Lauralee Bell. The daughter of series creators William J. Bell and Lee Phillip Bell, she was introduced in 1983 as a teen model, later developing into a lawyer and district attorney. In 2001, Bell asked to be moved to a recurring status from contract after a maternity leave, though she returned to a regular status the following year. In 2005, she returned to recurring, remaining only for another year until her departure. In 2007, the character was brought over to The Bold and the Beautiful by executive producer Bradley Bell, the actress' real-life brother, for a short-term stint. In 2010, Bell returned to The Young and the Restless, where she continues to make recurring appearances.
Christine has been married to rock singer Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian), a union that lasted four years until he left her to be with Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford), a woman he believed to be pregnant with his child. This sparked an ongoing rivalry between the two women that continues to present time. The character was later involved with investigator Paul Williams (Doug Davidson), and although their first marriage ended unsuccessfully after five years they continued to be linked as friends. After 12 years apart, Christine and Paul marry again on the same day as the memorial service of Katherine Chancellor. Bell's performance has been met with critical acclaim, having garnered her the Daytime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series in 2016.
