The Young and the Restless Spoilers
Y&R/ Summer Newman visits Abbott Mansion the last time

Friday’s The Young and the Restless Recap for May 2, 2025, delivered emotional exits and tangled truths that rocked Genoa City. As Summer prepared to leave for Milan, others were left to deal with secrets and shakeups that could change everything. The day saw heartfelt goodbyes, surprising job offers, and silent confessions—each pushing the characters into uncertain territory.

   

Summer’s Departure Sets Change in Motion

At Society, Summer Newman broke the news of her immediate trip to Milan. With both Chelsea and Sally stepping away from their positions, Summer needed to fly overseas and find replacements.

Although she tried to make it sound like a business-as-usual situation, her family saw through her smile. Nick and Phyllis offered encouragement, but their concern was hard to miss. The weight of change hung in the air as Summer assured them she’d return soon.

Later, at the Abbott mansion, Summer shared the update with Kyle and Harrison. She complimented Diane on the renovations before gently telling Harrison that he couldn’t join her this time. Though the little boy was disappointed, Summer promised a personal trip in the future, giving him a heartfelt hug that showed just how difficult this goodbye really was.

When Harrison ran off to grab a special parting gift, Kyle took the chance to reveal his own update—he planned to move in with Claire Newman. Summer, clearly caught off guard, asked him to wait before telling Harrison. The news seemed to leave her even more unsure as she stood alone in the living room, silently soaking in the moment.

The Young and the Restless Recap: Mariah Hides a Painful Mistake

While Summer prepared for her journey, Mariah faced a personal crisis of her own. At Crimson Lights, Sharon returned from her London trip and immediately noticed that something was wrong. Mariah looked shaken and emotionally distant, prompting Sharon to dig deeper. Eventually, Mariah broke down and confessed she had done something terrible while away on her business trip—something she couldn’t bring herself to tell Tessa.

Y&R/ Mariah is not okay

She admitted the emotional stress tied to Ian Ward had resurfaced, leaving her overwhelmed and vulnerable. To cope, Mariah had turned to the hotel minibar, starting with just a few drinks but quickly spiraling into a full night of reckless decisions. She didn’t go into detail but made it clear the shame was eating her alive. Sharon, always the voice of reason, tried to console her. She insisted one mistake didn’t erase all the good in her. Still, Mariah stood firm—Tessa could never know what had happened.

Phyllis Pushes Tessa Too Far

Elsewhere, Phyllis was spiraling in her own way. Desperate to get closer to Daniel, she asked Tessa for help—specifically, to spy on him. Tessa refused flat-out. She explained her relationship with Daniel was innocent, tied only to guitar lessons. Phyllis wasn’t convinced, but Tessa made her stance clear before walking away. Left with nothing but doubt, Phyllis had to rethink her next move.

Y&R/ Phyllis has a plan

The Young and the Restless Recap: Abbott and Newman Power Plays

At the Abbott mansion, Billy took a walk through the renovated halls and couldn’t help but voice his discomfort. While most of the family had supported Diane’s changes, Billy admitted he missed the old house. Without the memory of his father, John Abbott, the place didn’t feel like home. Diane was visibly hurt, especially after all the effort she had poured into making the mansion feel fresh.

Meanwhile, Adam updated Victor and a newly returned Nick about his offer to Chelsea—he wanted her as the COO of Newman Media. Nick expressed mild concern, wondering if Chelsea’s fashion ambitions were being sidelined. But ultimately, he supported the move if it made her happy.

At Society, Chelsea discussed the offer with Sally, who also had a surprise of her own. Billy had asked her to take Phyllis’ role at Abbott Communications. As both women considered their new paths, Summer encouraged them to go for it. Later, Sally confirmed her decision to Billy, while Chelsea accepted Adam’s offer. The two toasted separately, both stepping into new professional futures.

This The Young and the Restless Recap made one thing clear—Genoa City is shifting. Summer’s farewell was filled with quiet emotion and unspoken tension. Mariah’s guilt threatens to fracture her relationship. And the business world sees power shifting hands once again. As one chapter ends, another begins—full of uncertainty, ambition, and buried truths.
