Per The Wrap, there was a litany of reasons why Victoria Rowell filed a lawsuit against CBS and Sony. The actress alleged she was racially discriminated against by the network and longtime “The Young and the Restless” costars, including Michelle Stafford (Phyllis Summers), Melody Thomas Scott (Nikki Newman), and Peter Bergman (Jack Abbott).

Rowell claimed that Scott “ran onto the set dancing wildly and wearing an oversized Afro wig to mock my Afro-styled hair that day.” She also said Bergman “publicly called me mentally unstable and physically threatened me on set.” Regarding Stafford, according to Rowell, she “spat on me on set, called me a ‘freak,’ then screamed, ‘no one here likes you.'”

Rowell tweeted about the alleged incident, saying, “Michelle Stafford admitted in TVGuide Canada, the disgusting tactic to spit on me while I worked on CBS stages was premeditated & complicit. Stafford did comment publicly on the feud in an interview with TVGuide Canada, per Daytime Confidential. She said, “I did a spit take in a scene,” adding, “Before we taped the scene, I told everyone that I thought Phyllis should do a spit take at the moment Drucilla said something shocking. Everyone agreed. Unfortunately, some of the spit got in her face. Technically, I guess I did spit on her, but it’s not true that I did it on purpose.”
