The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers tease that Theo Vanderway (Tyler Johnson) will try to score a job at Chancellor Communications. Thanks to Theo’s knowledge and ability to sell himself as the best possible candidate, he’ll likely land the gig. That takes care of Theo’s career goals, but what about his love life? Where’s that headed?
Unfortunately, Theo and Lola Rosales (Sasha Calle) may not be a great match. Although Lola understands Theo and brings out the best in him, she seems to have other priorities right now. Lola was blindsided due to the abrupt end of her marriage. She’s not interested in moving very fast – or maybe moving anywhere at all.
Lola decided to postpone the weekend-long first date Theo had worked so hard on. She didn’t feel comfortable leaving Rey Rosales (Jordi Vilasuso), who might need to talk. However, Lola sure left GC in a hurry to go deal with her Miami restaurant problem!
Lola could’ve easily paid someone else to handle that issue. Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) was having surgery, so wasn’t that the time to stick around for Rey? That tells us Lola’s reason for bailing on the date probably wasn’t really about her brother. Lola most likely just used Rey as an excuse to wiggle out of her plans with Theo.
Due to what went down with Kyle, Lola just may not be ready to date again. She seems like she’d rather focus on her career, which may be what Lola will do when Y&R returns with new episodes. Will Lola relocate to Miami and focus on this restaurant dream of hers?
Regardless, Theo and Lola may not be able to make this work. The stars just aren’t aligning to make things happen here. With that in mind, maybe we should consider another love interest possibility.
Theo seemed drawn to Lola because she was caring, independent and beautiful. Lola knew what it meant to work hard and get things done herself. There’s someone else like that in town – a nurturing soul who’d bring out the best in Theo just like Lola. What about Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy)?
Elena is currently dating Devon Hamilton (Bryton James), but there’s always a chance Y&R will pair him up with Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan) down the road. The Young and the Restless might be looking to recreate the “Hevon” magic. Devon and Hilary Hamilton (Mishael Morgan) had plenty of fans, so that option’s always going to be on the table.
Elena could end up with Nate if that’s the case, but Nate is honestly just Devon with a different name. Their characters are so similar that their dialogue is practically interchangeable. Perhaps Elena needs a bit of a bad boy to spice things up! Y&R should do something different for Elena’s next pairing whenever the time comes. Theo would be an intriguing way to go.
The Young and the Restless viewers will recall how Elena snapped at Devon for paying off her student loans. That was a very Lola-like thing to do, so Elena’s personality and principles are similar.
It’s easy to imagine Theo and Elena bonding over their deceased mothers as well. Y&R could do some chem testing and see if “Thelena” might be worth pursuing!
Could you see Theo and Elena falling for each other under the right circumstances? Would you like to see Elena paired up with a bad boy? As other Y&R news becomes available, stick with us for updates.
