The Young and the Restless spoilers for the episode set to air on May 1, 2025
Victor escalates his plot to break up Claire and Kyle
Victor Newman on The Young and the Restless isn’t happy at all about Claire living with Kyle, and now it looks like Nikki may be the one to break the news to him. Even if she tries to tell him gently, Victor is expected to react angrily.
Once he finds out, he turns to Audra Charles and pressures her to speed up her plan to break up Kyle and Claire. Audra already has reasons to get involved, but Victor may offer her a reward if she succeeds or threaten her if she doesn’t move fast. Either way, he pushes her deeper into his plan.
Lauren warns Michael about his secret meeting with Jack
Michael Baldwin’s secret meeting with Jack Abbott is likely to cause trouble, mainly because he hasn’t told Victor about it. Lauren Fenmore Baldwin is worried and hasn’t hidden her frustration. She wants to support her husband, but she’s also scared of what Victor may do if, or when, he finds out.
Michael insists he can handle the situation, but Lauren knows from past experience that going behind Victor’s back usually leads to big problems, both personally and professionally.
Summer faces losing both Sally and Chelsea
Summer Newman faces a tough challenge at Marchetti as she fears losing both Sally Spectra and Chelsea Lawson. Both are important to the company, and thinking about taking new jobs—Sally with Abbott Communications and Chelsea with Newman Media.
Even though they haven’t made any final decisions yet, the idea of both leaving at the same time makes Summer very nervous. Losing them will be a big blow to the creative team, especially with everything else going on. Even if one decides to stay, Summer still worries about keeping things stable at the company.
Phyllis may be the surprise solution
As Summer looks for a way to fix her problem, help may come from someone unexpected. Currently on The Young and the Restless, Phyllis Summers Newman doesn’t have a job, having been recently fired by Billy Abbott, and is looking for a new one. She can step in to help save Marchetti by taking over Chelsea’s role as creative director.
With her bold ideas and past experience, she can also help find someone to take Sally’s place. This can be good for both Marchetti and Phyllis, giving the company support during a tough time and giving Phyllis a chance to start fresh while helping her daughter.
Fans of The Young and the Restless can watch the new episode of the show on CBS and Paramount Plus.
