The Young and the Restless spoilers tease that Kyle Abbott’s (Michael Mealor) world is about to get more complicated. As Y&R viewers know, he recently found out that he has a new cousin, and to his chagrin that turned out to be Theo Vanderway (Tyler Johnson). Now Theo is a permanent part of the Abbott family, and Kyle is doing his best to deal with that big change, but he is not at all happy about it.
From Kyle’s perspective, Theo has infiltrated pretty much every part of his life when he was supposed to just be an old party buddy who was a part of his forgotten past. But then Theo became a part of Summer Newman’s (Hunter King) life, which Kyle knows will only result in Summer getting played. And then Theo started ingratiating himself into Lola Abbott’s (Sasha Calle) life, which Kyle absolutely can’t stand.
And now, Kyle has learned that Theo will be joining Jabot and working directly under him. Jabot was really Kyle’s last Theo-free zone to speak of, and now Kyle will be infiltrating that, too. It’s a lot for Kyle to take, but he really has no choice at this point, since Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) is the one calling the hiring shots.
Well, according to The Young and the Restless spoilers, Kyle will do his best to make things work at Jabot. He’ll put forth a real effort and head into his first day with Theo working for him, but things won’t go well. It seems that Theo will be late for his first day, which won’t start things out on the right foot. And it sounds like it might turn into a situation in which Theo doesn’t exactly like being under Kyle’s thumb, so he might resist a little…like, for example, being late on his first day.
At any rate, it’s going to make for an interesting dynamic with these two old party buddies now having to get used to a new dynamic. It will probably be difficult for both of them to adjust and there will likely be some clashes along the way. And to complicate things, they’ll have Summer working alongside them as head of marketing. That won’t be easy on Summer, either, who probably won’t want to take sides.
In the end, though, it will probably be difficult for Summer to avoid taking sides. Something tells us there will be times when Kyle overreacts and tries to squash Theo’s input, and times when Theo deliberately tries to stir things up with Kyle. And since Summer used to be married to Kyle but is dating Theo, it will necessarily be awkward at times.
Do you think that Kyle and Theo stand a chance of working together civilly? Stay tuned to the CBS soap and don’t forget to check CDL often for the latest Young and the Restless spoilers, updates, and news.
