The Young and the Restless spoilers document that Ashland Locke’s (Richard Burgi) mysterious backstory is at the front of many people’s minds in Genoa City, Wisconsin. The rub involves who his parents were and what his real name is.
But a far deeper mystery involves Sally Spectra’s (Courtney Hope) parentage. Dating back to her 2017 debut on sister show, The Bold and the Beautiful, she has no known parents.
Shirley Spectra (Patrika Darbo) is her grandmother, the sister of Sally’s namesake and legendary B&B character, Sally Spectra I (Darlene Conley). Coco Spectra (Courtney Grosbeck) is Sally II’s sister. Sally II and Coco have some cousins on Sally I’s side of the family. So, it is not a stretch to link Sally II to Ashland.
Young and the Restless Spoilers – Billy Abbott Begins With Conclusions
Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) firmly believes that Ashland is hiding something. He does not know what it is but found it strange that a birth certificate could not be located.
There was no information available about Ashland’s parents either. That is unusual because they are believed to have died.
The expedition that Billy and his ChanceCom hires are pursuing began with a slanted conclusion, which is the jumping-off point of non-journalists. Ashland must have done something wrong and Billy is out to prove it, versus an honest pursuit of wherever the truth may lie.
Young and the Restless Spoilers – Lockeness Monster Is Unaware Of Daughter
There is no evidence that Sally (referring to Hope’s character) is Ashland’s daughter. So, starting with that Billy-type conclusion, one chooses to use circumstantial evidence to project a compelling reality.
As noted, Sally has no known parents. That plot point leaves the daytime door wide open for creative interpretation.
Ashland was wronged by his now ex-wife, Tara Locke (Elizabeth Leiner). So, it would fit nicely to have him benefit from an unknown child’s reveal. Unlike the Harrison Locke (Kellen Enriquez) shocker, Ashland could be oblivious to the fact that, in this case, he had a daughter that he never knew existed.
Young and the Restless Spoilers – Linking Ashland To Sally Spectra
It would be a stretch to tie Sally’s paternity to Ashland. But if Billy’s so-called investigative research produces evidence about whoever Burgi’s character is, then multiple soapy outcomes can result.
Sally’s genetic link to Ashland would instantly give her access to power and money that would supercharge her status in GC. As for the man in question, he would have another reason to live. Of course, Billy also is not sure Ashland is dying.
Despite all the slams against Billy, his instincts could be partially or fully vindicated. Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) and Vashland fans would be forced to grudgingly thank Thompson’s character in that reveal scenario.
