The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers tease that an Adam Newman recast seems to be in the works based on leaks of several auditions for the role. It looks like the love of Chelsea’s (Melissa Claire Egan) life will return from the “dead.” Most viewers haven’t really been on board with Chelsea’s latest pairing. Nick (Joshua Morrow) is a nice guy, but he’s not Chelsea’s soul mate.
“Chadam” fans are certainly hoping for a reunion ASAP. However, The Young and the Restless may take their time with putting Chelsea and Adam back together. After all, it’ll just make their reconnection that much sweeter.
Let’s say Adam has been in hiding and refused to contact Chelsea for whatever reason. He might’ve believed he was doing what was best for Chelsea and Connor (Gunner and Ryder Gadbois). Once Adam eventually pops up again, Chelsea may lash out at him for letting his family suffer. She may be hurt that Adam couldn’t trust her with the truth.
The Young and the Restless watchers know that Adam and Chelsea’s relationship has always been complicated. The back-from-the-dead plot will only add to the chaos. Chelsea’s feelings for Nick could create another complex layer in this storyline.
Although Chelsea will be relieved to know Adam is alive, she could battle some anger issues. Chelsea may need some time to wrap her head around the situation. If weeks turn into months, we could see Adam end up with someone else for a while.
The last two Adams were popular among fans. Michael Muhney and Justin Hartley each had their own strengths. They gave us very different versions of this somewhat gray character. The upcoming Adam recast will undoubtedly put a new spin on him. We could see Y&R choose someone with a totally different appearance, too.
The new Adam might look great standing next to Sharon (Sharon Case). Adam could reunite with his former flame until Chelsea is willing to take him back. That could bring out a protective side of Nick. He won’t want Adam with Chelsea, but he won’t want him with Sharon either.
Nick and Sharon are in a good place right now. He might fight to keep Adam out of Sharon’s life, which could spark some romantic feelings again. Chelsea could realize that Nick is still longing for his ex. All of this could set up the inevitable “Chadam” and “Shick” reunions. Everybody wins!
Adam’s return could definitely shake things up. We’ll give you updates as other news comes in. Stay tuned to Y&R and don’t forget to check CDL often for the latest Young and the Restless spoilers, updates and news.
