The Young And The Restless Spoilers: Victoria & Kyle’s Secret Motel Romance – Newman-Abbott Scandal About To Explode?
Victoria and Kyle are sneaking around at the Riverbank Motel, but keeping their unexpected romance hidden from the Newmans and Abbotts may soon become impossible.
The Young and the Restless spoilers document that Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) is allowing herself to become involved. She’s entered what can only be called the start of a relationship with Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor).
For his part, Kyle is totally on board. Like Victoria, he didn’t anticipate becoming involved with anyone. They were focused on their family’s businesses until a revived fragrance battle brought them to the table together.
Kyle wanted to reignite the Jabot versus Vibrante battle. The negotiation with Victoria to do so turned personal early and led to an ongoing series of private meetings.
Key Takeaways
- Victoria and Kyle secretly meet at the Riverbank Motel
- Their business connection has turned romantic
- Victor could be furious over another Abbott romance
- Diane may have her own objections
- Claire has already suspected something between them
Riverbank Motel Isn’t All That Bad
The establishing shot of the Riverbank Motel showed a decent place to stay. It’s either a new or newer location, obviously somewhere near the river on the outskirts of Genoa City, Wisconsin.
Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) moved there temporarily before he reconnected with Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford). Kyle and Victoria just so happened to stay in the room beside him, but thankfully for both couples, neither saw the other.
This setting was one that Kyle and Victoria chose because they are hiding their romance from both sets of parents. That seems like something high-schoolers would do, which is what Mealor’s and Heinle’s characters are behaving like at this stage of their mutual crushes.
Victoria Newman Wants Business And Personal Separate
Victoria’s history of getting parental approval of her boyfriends, husbands, and others isn’t great. She knows, without exploring the topic, that Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) would be outraged that she’s with another Abbott.
The oddness of Victoria becoming involved with her ex-husband’s (Billy Abbott, played by Jason Thompson) nephew is lessened in the soapy world. There are only so many characters in GC. So, pairing her with Kyle makes daytime sense.
Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) is heading Vibrante, which creates an extra challenge for Victoria. Viewers know that sooner or later, Nikki and Victor will learn the truth or realize what their daughter is up to.
Kyle Abbott Was Looking For Stress Relief
The ordeal that Kyle’s parents endured these past months, at the hands of Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk), was beyond intense. It took a heavy toll on Kyle, which is a leading reason why he was open to a romantic diversion.
Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) will probably accept his son’s new interest when he becomes aware of it. Diane Jenkins Abbott (Susan Walters) will be stunned and angered because she wants nothing to do with the Newmans.
But Victoria’s interest in Kyle is all that he’s focused on right now. Single since he and Claire Newman (Hayley Erin) split up, with that other oddity part of this soapy mix. Viewers also recognized that his most recent ex-girlfriend was the first to suspect that Kyle and her mother were interested in each other.
