Diamont spoke with TV Insider reflecting on the past forty years. Discussing his arrival at The Young and the Restless back in 1985 the actor shared, “I was told by my agent at the time, Sid Craig, that Bill [Bell, creator/head writer of Y&R] had seen me on Days, and wanted me to screen-test for Brad Carlton,” he recounts. “I believe there were seven other guys. I was directed by Ed Scott for that screen test, and he was wonderful. I felt confident, but screen tests are nerve-racking. It was with Brenda Dickson, who was blowing smoke in my face during it. She was a character.”
Diamont recently celebrated 16 years at The Bold and the Beautiful, and the actor commemorated the event on Instagram, captioning the post, “16 years❓❓❓It feels like 16 minutes‼️‼️‼️ To say that I’m grateful too @bradleybell for having created this wonderfully complicated character for me, and trusting me to lift him off the page, is an understatement. I have so much gratitude to everyone I work with in front of and behind the camera @boldandbeautifulcbs ??‼️❤️‼️”
