Despite her recurring status as Lauren Fenmore on The Young and the Restless, she continues to be featured prominently in storylines, namely in the 2005-06 storyline involving the return of her character's arch nemesis, Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown). Lauren has been married to lawyer Michael Baldwin, portrayed by Christian LeBlanc, since December 9th, 2005. Her previous marriages and relationships include detective Paul Williams, rock star Danny Romalatti, Dr. Scott Grainger, Brad Carlton, Ridge Forrester, and Eric Forrester. Lauren has one son, Scotty Grainger Jr., with Dr. Scott Grainger who is now deceased. Although Scotty was born on screen in 1992, when he reappeared in Genoa City in 2006, he was aged to be 24 years of age - a grad student currently working on his masters in Education. The aging of Scotty appeared to be quite unrealistic as the character of Lauren is only about 40 or so, which is likely why he left the canvas of Genoa City shortly after his return. Lauren recently gave birth to a second child, Fenmore Michael Baldwin (aka "Fen"). He too was kidnapped by Sheila in February 2007, but has since been returned to his parents safe and sound.

Personal life and career

Part of the reason that Tracey remains on recurring status for Young and the Restless is so she can embark on other projects. One of these is a reality television show she hosts "Tales of the Soulful Earth." She explains, "It's a show that takes women who are at crossroads in their life on these life-altering spiritual journeys - to the Himalayas, the Outback, to the Antarctic - with therapists that talk them through it. They are taken out of their own lives to see past where they are stuck. There is going to be a celebrity version, too." Bregman was excited upon first hearing about the project. "You've got your Dr. Phil's, and all of that. But we can all relate to be being stuck, and not being able to get past a certain situation."

Her other television credits include the after-school special The Girl with E.S.P., and the telefilms Three on a Date and Sex and Mrs. X. She was a series regular on Second Family Tree with Ann Archer and James Spader, and guest-starred in the series The Fall Guy, Gavilan, Fame and The Love Boat, as well as the Canadian series The Littlest Hobo.

The "E." in Tracey's professional name, which stands for Elizabeth, was not there originally. Rather, she added it on the advice of a numerologist; she is quoted in Soap Opera Digest as saying, "A month after I added it, I got Y&R - and I've been afraid to take it out ever since!"
