The Young And The Restless Spoilers: Claire’s Name Change To Newman Followed By Job At Chancellor?
The Young and the Restless spoilers document that Claire Newman (Hayley Erin) wants to be a full family member. Her decision to change her last name to Newman also signals the start of a deepening of her character.
Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) was thrilled, as were Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) and Victor Newman (Eric Braeden). It remains to be seen how Cole Howard (J. Eddie Peck) will respond over time.
Nikki’s hope to have Claire resume her assistant role signals that Victor’s plan to take Abbott Chancellor, strip the Abbott name, and install his wife as its head is bound to happen.
The Young And The Restless Spoilers – What About Cole Howard?
Claire understood her dad might feel wrong about not assuming the Howard moniker. But paternal instincts will likely favor his daughter’s desires. Cole is a good man and has been fully supportive of the daughter he and Victoria miraculously have back in their lives.
Choosing not to take the Howard name is also related to Claire’s hope to cut ties with her aunt entirely. Jordan Howard’s (Colleen Zenk) terrible crime robbed Claire, Victoria, Cole, and the Newman family of what should have been their lives together.
Opting to be associated with the Newman family name makes sense on various levels. The distance from Jordan is a real-life factor. Cole is a recurring character and the Newman’s are legacy characters.
The Young And The Restless Spoilers – Nikki Newman Recognizes Source Of Problem
Nikki has no trepidation in wanting to work with Claire again. In front of Victoria, she told her that Jordan controlled Erin’s character when she was posing as an impostor.
Victor has concerns about Nikki’s offer to Claire. He believes rehiring her could trigger bad memories of Jordan having forced alcohol into Nikki’s system, but she reassured Victor that would not happen.
Thomas Scott’s character told her beloved husband that she harbors no ill will toward Claire, placing all the blame on Jordan for the horrors she faced. Victor isn’t convinced but recognizes that Nikki’s intentions are good.
The Young And The Restless Spoilers – Claire Newman Comes Into Her Own
Claire is an intelligent person whose life was wrongly repressed until she realized who Jordan was. Rather than being her protector, Jordan was demented.
Breaking from the past, offering true contrition, and gaining her family’s acceptance means the world to Claire. Her decision to embrace the Newman name is a watershed moment.
Viewers anticipate Victor retaking control of Katherine Chancellor’s (Jeanne Cooper) business in the coming weeks, and Nikki will lead that restored company.
Introducing the idea of Claire returning to work for Nikki forwards the redemptive process. More likely than not, Claire will eventually accept her grandmother’s offer and begin pursuing her birthright in the family empire.
