Here’s what you need to know.
The Young and the Restless Spoilers: Peter Bergman Opens Up About Jack Abbott’s Family Ties And Drama
In an interview with Soap Opera Digest, Peter made it no secret that he’s happy to see his character in the spotlight again. When asked how he felt about getting “meaty material” in the scripts, Peter said, “Actually, getting my own story has never been my feeling. I have been involved in other people’s stories, which I thoroughly enjoy, but my way of thinking has always been, ‘When are we going to re-establish the Abbott family?’ Jack has been wandering around that house for a long time by himself with the occasional visit from Billy. I am more thrilled to see the Abbotts back in the forefront because of this story.”
Peter also said that he loves that The Young and the Restless fans get to see more of the Abbott family, which includes Jack and his siblings. “I love that it’s generating a range of opinions. Traci has a perspective on this, Ashley has a perspective on this and Billy has a perspective on this that have yet to be explored and I’m looking forward to that. It really ties the Abbotts together. The Abbott family is on the march. There’s a lot of good stuff coming up and I couldn’t be happier,” he explained.

When asked if Ashley Abbott should stay in Genoa City permanently, Jack added, “I couldn’t agree with that more. I love having Eileen [Davidson, Ashley] here whenever she can, so I cherish our times together, no matter how limited. I’ll take whatever we can get. Ashley certainly brings her own drama. It would be great to have Ashley back but while she’s gone, there’s no friction between Jack and Traci.”
