Eva Longoria recently revealed that she kept her role on The Young and the Restless a secret from her clients while working as a headhunter. Eric Braeden, who plays Victor Newman on the show, criticized Longoria for making derogatory remarks about daytime actors.

The feud between Braeden and Longoria highlights the challenges faced by actors in the soap opera industry and the importance of recognizing the hard work that goes into this type of acting.
Eric Braeden, who has played Victor Newman on The Young and the Restless since 1980, slammed Eva Longoria for her recent remarks about her experience on the show. In a tweet on Sunday, March 19, Braeden criticized Longoria for making derogatory remarks about daytime actors and claimed that she was not good enough to survive the pressures of the medium. He also accused her of lacking class and suggested that the actresses on the show would run circles around her.
Braeden’s remarks came after Longoria’s appearance on Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace, during which she reflected on her time playing Isabella Braña on the CBS soap opera from 2001 to 2003. Longoria revealed that the show did not pay enough for her to live off being an actor, so she continued working as a headhunter and hid the fact that she was on the show from her clients.
While Braeden took issue with Longoria’s remarks, he acknowledged that many actors who have gone on to achieve great success, such as Robert De Niro, got their start in the medium that Longoria seemed to be denigrating. Despite this, Braeden felt that Longoria’s comments showed a complete lack of class.
The feud between Braeden and Longoria is just one of many unexpected celebrity feuds that have arisen over the years. It remains to be seen whether the two will be able to put their differences aside and move on from this controversy.
