Could Devon and Abby Be The Next Big Thing?
Abby’s heart-to-heart with Ashley gave her much-needed clarity, per The Young and the Restless spoilers. Melissa explained, “Abby’s had a lot of love in her life, but luck hasn’t always been on her side.” Viewers can tell Abby’s romantic history hasn’t been smooth sailing, full of bad choices in men or self-sabotage. Moreover, Abby felt familiar nerves creeping in when Devon proposed.
“She’s just scared of messing things up,” Ordway revealed. She also highlighted that Devon’s been Abby’s best friend for ages, and they share a baby. “So if things go south, it’s not just a breakup—they’re bound together forever.” Subsequently, the Y&R character knows she’s dancing around the fire and losing Devon would crush her heart.
Just imagine how their son, Dominic, would take it. That’s why talking to Ashley was so important. The soap diva believes that Abby needs that reassurance from her mom. And guess what? Ashley’s comforting words did the trick, easing Abby’s fears about making another mistake in love. Furthermore, Abby is dying to begin this new chapter with Devon.
However, she won’t rush into marriage without her mom by her side. Ordway confirmed, “There’s no way Abby’s getting married without Ashley there.” Plus, Abby must consider that her bond with Devon isn’t just about romance. The duo has something rare for a Newman: Victor’s stamp of approval. “Victor’s approval is gold,” the Y&R star noted.
According to her, their families run deep, making them an even stronger pair. Hold up, there’s more! Ordway teased that Devon and Abby might soon be making waves in the business world, too! They will likely join forces with the Winters family. This POWER COUPLE is one to watch, both in love and in business.
