The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers reveal that Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) is already feeling torn about Claire Grace (Hayley Erin) and what she’s been through. It’s true that Claire just caused a world of turmoil for most of the Newman family, but it’s not really her fault.
Aunt Jordan (Colleen Zenk) tricked Claire into thinking that Victoria and Cole Howard (J. Eddie Peck) didn’t want her. From Claire’s perspective, it looked like Victoria went on to embrace her other beloved children after throwing little Eve Nicole Howard out like trash.
Jordan messed with Claire’s head and caused her to live a very different life than the one she would’ve had with the Newmans. Claire is now an adult who made some bad choices, but Jordan never gave her the skills to make good ones.
With all that in mind, Victoria will want to try building a relationship with Claire once a DNA test presumably confirms they’re mother and daughter. That’s sure to be a challenge, but Victoria will want to try making up for lost time.
Of course, step one will be getting Claire out of her legal mess, which will inevitably rile up Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) and Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott).
Nevertheless, Claire will find herself a free woman – and that’ll open the door to her getting to know Victoria and trying to bond with her.
What happens if Victoria eventually builds some trust with Claire and wants her to meet her younger siblings?
That’s when Y&R could bring in some conflict with Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson), who’ll be quite protective of the children he shares with Victoria.
Billy may ban Claire from seeing Johnny Abbott (Paxton Mishkind) and Katie Abbott (Sienna Mercuri) since she’s proven she can be so dangerous. That could lead to quite a rift with Victoria if she feels like Billy’s hindering her ability to give Claire a real family.
There’s also the potential for this to stir up some new issues for Johnny, who’s adopted by Victoria and may feel pushed aside in favor of her new biological child.
That’d be a great way to bring Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) into the story as Johnny’s concerned bio mom.
Bottom line, The Young and the Restless spoilers say Victoria’s decision to give Claire another chance will cause major problems, so stay tuned for updates on more family feud news.
