Will the actual realized yields be equal to the expected yields if interest rates change? If not, how will they differ?

As long as promised coupon payments are made, the current yield will not change as a result of changing interest rates. However, changing rates will cause the price to change and as a result, the realized return to investors should equal the YTM.
