Mary Williams (The Young and the Restless)

Mary Williams (The Young and the Restless)

Mary Williams is a fictional character in the American soap opera "The Young And The Restless". She was portrayed by actress Carolyn Conwell from 1980 to 2003.

Character's background

Mary is the former wife of Carl Williams (played by Brett Hadley) and mother of Patty (Andrea Evans), Paul (Doug Davidson), Steven (David Winn) and Father Todd Williams (Corbin Bernsen). She also has a sister named Jane.

In the late 1980s, Carl, a police officer, went missing and was presumed dead, devastating Mary and her children. Paul, now a detective, desperately tried to locate Carl, but to no avail. Ten years later, after Mary had accepted a marriage proposal from Charlie Ottwell (Christopher Kriesa), Paul's wife Christine (Lauralee Bell) was shocked to discover that Carl was still alive, and living in Norfolk under the name Jim Bradley. It was revealed that he had been captured by criminals while working on a police case, and was beaten and left for dead. An amnesiac Carl had been found and rescued by a woman named Ruth Perkins (Leslie Bevis). Christine convinced "Jim" to return to Genoa City with her. Mary was shocked when Carl returned, and eventually broke off her engagement with Charlie. However, Carl never regained his memory or reconnected with his family, and he went back to Norfolk with Ruth.

Paul and Christine divorced, and Mary became intent on breaking up Paul's latest marriage, to Isabella Braña (Eva Longoria), of whom Mary did not approve. She enlisted Christine's help in breaking up the marriage, but Christine was unable to convince Paul to leave Isabella. Despite the fact that Paul was committed to her, Isabella jealously tried to kill Cristine, before being institutionalized. Despite the fact that Isabella had given Mary the grandchild that she had always wanted, a boy who was named Ricardo Carl Williams, Ricardo went to live with Isabella's parents in California.

Mary has not been seen on-screen since late 2003; she left Genoa City to live near Patty and Steven in Washington DC.
