Ashley Abbott’s return to The Young and the Restless might not be about romance. During the week of May 26–30, 2025, she could shake the Abbott family with a shocking career bombshell. But this twist might involve more than just business…
Is Ashley Working With Aristotle Dumas?
Fans expected Ashley to come home with a love interest. Instead, she may bring chaos. Her time in Paris wasn’t just for healing—what if she’s been secretly collaborating with the mysterious Aristotle Dumas?
Ashley’s recent stability doesn’t mean she’s steering clear of drama. If she’s been working with Dumas behind the scenes, her loyalty to the Abbotts may be questioned. Jack and Diane are already on edge, and this news could push things over the limit.
The Young and the Restless: Victor’s Long Game In Motion?
Victor Newman has claimed to know Dumas for years. Yet strangely, he’s never met the billionaire in person. That opens the door to a twist: what if Ashley was planted as a double agent?
Victor might’ve recruited Ashley in Paris. His plan? Bring down Jack from within. If Ashley is part of Victor’s silent takedown mission, it would explain her mysterious absence and sudden return. This kind of deception would rock Genoa City’s power balance. And let’s face it—nobody plays the long game like Victor.
Ashley Quitting Jabot—For Glissade?
Ashley might drop another bombshell: she could be leaving Jabot for Glissade. That would be a career betrayal no one saw coming. If she’s joining the enemy, the corporate battle will explode.
There’s also talk that her Paris projects were not for Jabot. Maybe she was preparing for a takeover. With Glissade gaining strength and Dumas funding it, Ashley might be the key to their next move. Jack’s reaction would be fiery. A betrayal from his own sister would strike deeper than any Newman trick.
Some fans wonder if Ashley’s announcement will confirm that she’s been in touch with Dumas personally. If so, she may be the first character to have real access to the elusive billionaire. Could she have been running the show for Dumas all along? If Ashley reveals she’s Dumas’ confidante—or even a partner—Genoa City won’t know what hit it.
Ashley’s return to The Young and the Restless could spark more than family drama. Her possible link to Dumas changes everything. Could she really be helping Victor destroy Jack? Or is she pulling off her own grand plan?
Stay tuned to see if this speculation proves true. One thing’s for sure—Ashley’s not just coming home for small talk. For all your The Young and the Restless updates, keep reading Soap Opera Daily.
