Michael spoke out about his firing in September 2014 to the Daily Mail UK online and denied the harassment rumor. There were some supportive Twitter posts for both Hunter and Michael by Y&R cast-mates when all this drama was unfolding, so it is very difficult to decipher what is true and what is a rumor. The hard part is, no one has really confirmed any of the reports. Now, if this was in fact the reason he got fired, then the actor deserved his dismissal.

However, TMZ also leaked that the reason Muhney got fired was that he * allegedly * harassed fellow co-star Hunter King (Summer Newman). Now, if he indeed got canned for those above reasons, then it was an unfair firing. Having aired its landmark 12,000th episode in December 2020, the show ranks as one of the longest-running soap operas in American TV history alongside the likes of General Hospital and Days Of Our Lives. Bell and Lee Phillip Bell, The Young And The Restless broadcast its first episode way back in 1973. Noah told Allie that Audra was someone he 'used to know.' He told Audra to enjoy herself. Created by husband-and-wife-duo William J. Audra said she'd heard about the club from a business associate, discovered Noah owned it, and decided to check it out. It was also said that Muhney was all-around outspoken, and he let his voice be heard on the fact that he thought the Daytime Emmy awards nomination process was unjust. At the club, Noah asked Audra what she was doing there. At first, it seemed that Muhney simply didn’t get along with Eric Braeden (his onscreen dad, Victor Newman), and that may have been the reason he got axed.

Now the late 2013 firing of Michael Muhney is a very contentious one.
