Y&R’s Jack and Diane Renew Their Vows; But How Long Will This Union Last?
On Monday’s episode of The Young and the Restless, Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) renewed their wedding vows as their son, Kyle (Michael Mealor) officiated over the ceremony.
With everyone gathered at the Abbott estate, Jack and Diane call everyone to attention. Jack shares that because he loves his bride so much, he wants to marry her all over again right now with the help of his son, and in front of all of his family and friends as witnesses. Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott), who gets the ‘best line of the episode’ award, under her breath, utters, “How fun.”
As they stand in front of everyone, Jack tells Diane just how blessed he feels that they have found their way back to each other. He admits he never thought he would feel such joy again and thanks God for Diane and the way she loves him.

An emotional Diane shares that Jack is such a patient and compassionate man. He’s changed her life and she’s grateful for him every day, and for showing her what it means to be a true partner. She promises to always be there for him and to fight for him.
Kyle can’t think of a better place for these vows to have taken place than at their family home. Once Jack and Diane have finished, Kyle says that by the power vested in him by the internet and the state of Wisconsin, that he pronounces them man and wife.

Afterwards, Nikki finds Diane and leaves her with a threat – she will make her life a living hell if she does anything to hurt Jack. Diane assures Nikki that nothing will ever happen. Nikki tells her that she really hope’s that’s true for Jack’s sake … and hers.
Watch Jack and Diane renew their vows in the video below. Then let us know, do you think Jack will eventually be blind-sided by Diane, once again? Should he have married her given thei past? Share your thoughts in the comment section.
Why are these two narcissistic fools renewing their vows when they just got married? I don’t trust overly demonstrative couples anymore than I throw them. It’s like they’re trying to prove something. Plus, these two seemed starved for attention and validation. It’s as if they need convincing themselves.
Thank you, Harry. Those of us who know Jack and Diane, know their inner-selves—-All this show for what? How long before the “walls” crumble again? Viagra must really work.
Then, there’s Audra—what do you call someone who sells her/his body? Quid Pro Quo? Or Femme de la nuit? Or both??LOL.
Does anyone else feel that Diane’s return was completely botched? She’s much better as a villain than “reformed,” and given her last go-around in Genoa City (when Maura West played the role) you’d think she had much more score-settling to do. I was hoping she’d team up with Ashland (remember him?) or Tucker (the hard-edged business man version, not this meek love-sick puppy) or hell, even Cameron Kirsten (if he wasn’t a psycho) and take over the town.
Instead, we got Diane begging for forgiveness, parading around town with no consequences for her actions, and having no real story for the past year… such a waste of potential, but then again, that’s all Y&R seems to be these days.
Jack belongs with Phyllis.
And Nick belongs with Sharon, not Sally!
And Sharon belongs with chance not chance with summer yuck!
Oh please, no man deserves that bitch, well, maybe Tucker!
I totally agree with Harry, Jimmy and Shari’s comments. I’ve always loved Jack/Peter Bergman but the sl with Diane has totally ruined my enjoyment of him. I agree that her return was botched – I’m still living in hope she will screw things up. How Jack could go from his anger at her upon her return to the gushing, simpering fool he’s become beats me; and their constant gushing over each other sickens me.
He does belong with Phyllis – they botched her sl as well, partly to prop up Diane. Jack/Phyllis have far more chemistry and they were so close to getting back together. Jack turned on her for saying/doing far less than Diane has ever said/done. It made no sense when they were so close at the time, and for him to forgive Diane for all she did and for her faking her own death and staying away for so long is totally senseless. I will never be on board with this pairing.
JenW I couldn’t have said it better myself Diane is grating on my last nerve I was always a Jack and Phyllis fan myself It is annoying the way Jack paws and drools all over her On a side note, it was nice to see Diane wearing a color for a change She is always in either black or navy blue. But I agree with Billy I think her true colors are slowly going to start to show We just have to wait and see
Jack is ok but she is utterly insipid/boring/pointless.
I like Diane a lot (the actress) is awesome. Glad she is with Jack! Keep them together, no Jack and Phyllis not unless it was played by the missed Gina T (who played Phyllis very well, very)!
John G needs to be out at YR !
I agree. I actually like Jack and Diane. Now that they are married, hopefully there can be some drama storylines for them, but I am so tired of all of the businesses having more storylines than the actual actors. And yes, Gina was fantastic as Phyllis. I cannot stand Michelle Stafford now. I used to love her and was sad when she originally departed for GH, but since her return, I have not been able to stomach her or any of the storylines, except she did have some chemistry with Jeremy Sparks. And I do miss Allie and Noah. We need some youthful storylines, especially for a show called The YOUNG and the Restless.
Wow! Afraid to write. I have no background on just what it was that Diane did to upset all of Genoa City. I find her, without the background, a superb actor. For a couple of years the scripts for Jack have, for me, presented a character clearly not competent to be the head of such a large company. Gradually he seems to be stepping up on the mental level and finding a rather lovely woman to be his wife. HOWEVER, on any level putting Diane in on the top tier of the company was a disaster. On the other hand, Phyllis is driving me nuts. I do recall her dedication to Jack when he became addicted to something years ago. I would like Jack to regain his intelligence and married life while all of these companies shake out. There should always be something solid in a script. I can’t find it. Then again. I remind myself this is the wonderful world of “SOAPS!

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Has Dylan’s Mystery Caller/Stalker Been Revealed to Be an Alive Luna Nozawa?
We have another scream machine on her hands at The Bold and the Beautiful after the dramatic ending of the May 1 episode, and that would be Dylan (Sydney Bullock)!
B&B is finally making some headway on just who was the person behind the mystery call that Dylan received telling her they have some “unfinished business.” At the time of the mysterious call, it was clear that the voice was altered to disguise the true identify of the person on the the other line.
On today’s show, after Dylan and Electra (Laneya Grace) exchange words in the wardrobe room about Dylan wanting to rebuild their trust and friendship and how Electra has issues stemming from way back trusting anyone after what Remy (Christian Weissmanm) did to her by befriending her and then plastering deep fake nude photos of her across social media.

The timing of Electra bringing up Remy is also interesting to us, as we had previously reported now that Christian Weissmann is back and on on contract with The Bold and the Beautiful, he’s already teased that Remy has another connection to someone on the canvas, which many are still believing its Dylan.
At the end of the episode, after Electra leaves the room, Dylan hears noises coming from behind the dress rack. She asks, “Jamie” is that with you? After no answer and a bit more hangar and dress ruffling, a figure steps out behind it, while Dylan is looking down at her tablet trying to get back to work.
When Dylan looks up, she lets out a scream that could be heard to Nebraska, as viewers see partial view of what looks to be a woman with long dark hair from the back. Dylan in shock, says, “It’s you!” We fade to black.
So, what’s going on here? Is the reason the caller said to her that we have “unfinished business” because on Monday, it will be revealed to actually be an alive and well, Luna (Lisa Yamada)? Did the two strikes some sort of deal, that allowed Dylan to help Luna escape after Luna supposedly died after Dylan ran her down with her car, which was all off-screen? Another theory, is the mystery caller is Remy and he is doing some sort of Luna fakeout on Dylan for a yet to be revealed reason.
What do you think is going on? Did Lisa Yamada just make an on-screen return to The Bold and the Beautiful? Share your thoughts and theories below, but first check out our recent interview from back in March on the Michael Fairman Channel when Lisa who attended the BBTV app launch party.

THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Nick Confesses His Drug Problem to Victor; Joshua Morrow, Mark Grossman, Eric Braeden Bring the Newman Bond
When The Young and the Restless can deliver an emotional side to their stories and their family dynamics, it usually makes for some great scenes delivered by their A-list cast.
Such was the case on the Friday, May 1 episode when Adam (Mark Grossman) and Nick (Joshua Morrow) returned to Genoa City and gave their father, Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), an update on what had gone down with Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) in Las Vegas.
As Victor questioned, “What the hell happened?” Nick piped up, “We both made mistakes along the way, but we’re here now and we’re sorry for giving you so much worry on top of everything else that you’re dealing with,” which was in reference to Victor trying to reclaim his company Newman Enterprises et al.

NICK’S CONFESSION
Next, Nick, explains one of the ways he messed up while trying to go after Matt Clark, when he admitted to this father with tears in his eyes, “That’s one of the ways I messed up … I took Fentanyl willingly. Some of it was because of Matt, but most of it was on me. I was in a lot of pain, dad, after my accident, I was burning through my prescription meds really quickly after I left the hospital. I could see that it was becoming a problem. But honestly, I thought that I could manage it. I was wrong. I was out in LA and Matt had taken Noah (Lucas Adams) and Sienna (Tamara Braun) and he gave me this bag of pills and said I could use it to trade for information. When I went out to that drug warehouse, he was trying to convince me and Sharon (Sharon Case) that Noah was a drug addict. I just put the pills in my pocket of my jacket and I came back to Genoa City and I was in a lot of pain, dad, and I was wearing that jacket. I put my hands in the pocket and the pills were there.”
Nick sadly added, “I was desperate. I couldn’t get anymore prescription meds, so I took the fentanyl I’m deeply ashamed that I was so weak, but all I can do is stand here and tell you the truth that I’m going to make this right and I’ll get better.”
BROTHER TO BROTHER
Adam stood up for his brother and reconfirmed to Victor the plan for help Nick through his pill addiction, “Nick is already on his way to doing that. Sharon has set up an appointment with an outpatient facility. He’s going to do the meetings and he’s going to push through this better than ever.”

Courtesy/CBS
“You should also know that the only reason I’m standing here is because of Adam,” Nick confessed to Victor. “Every time I fell, you were there to pick me up. You risked your life to save me, and that’s not something I will ever forget.”
In the climatic and emotional ending of the scene, Nick in tears admits his shame to his dad, who comes in to give him hug. Nick says, “I’m so sorry. I know that this is the last thing you or this family needs.”
All three actors, Joshua Morrow, Mark Grossman and Eric Braeden, were excellent in this exchange in their scenes, but at its epicenter continues to be the Emmy-worthy performances by Y&R MVP, Joshua Morrow. Nick’s heartbreaking journey and fall from grace with his pill addiction problem has finally shown the clinks in the armor of the man who is always on the ready to help others … now he needs to let others help him through this. Can we do it?
So, what did you think of the scenes between the Newman man featuring Joshua, Mark and Eric on the Friday episode of Y&R? And though who watched also know that at the very end, Matt Clark who clearly has been injured wakes up from being conked out, so there is more revenge to come on the Newman clan. Share your thoughts below, but take a look at these scenes from a Canadian viewers who saw them air yesterday.

DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Sophia Seemingly Plans to End Her Life, But Not Before Setting Fire to Johnny’s Apartment With Him Trapped Inside
The final few moments of the Thursday, April 30 episode of Days of our Lives, will pave the way, to what just may be the end of Sophia Choi’s (Rachel Boyd) life, but not as you may think!
After an unhinged Sophia paid a visit to Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman), maced him in the eyes, knocked him out and then tied up to a chair, now conscious, she lets him know that she holds him responsible for all the trouble and trauma she has gone through from adopting her child, and her being sent to a mental institution.
So instead of the unregistered gun Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) gave her to finish off Johnny, Sophia sets up a plan to light candle, use nail polish remover and turn on the gas on the stove to ultimately create a mass explosion, which although Johnny pleaded to her not to that to all the innocent people inside his apartment building, she doesn’t seem to care.

FIERY FACE OFF
The plan was supposed to be, after she takes care of Johnny she will toss the gun in the Salem River, then focus on payback to Holly Jonas before leaving town to start a new life.
Now, Sophia makes her exit, leaving Johnny to be a few moments away from an explosion or gas inhalation, when Chanel (Raven Bowens) comes home after awaiting the results of her mammogram. She sees Johnny tied up, as he panics and tells her to put out the flame on the candle, things go awry, and a fire has begun and everything may go up in flames with Johnny and Chanel inside.

A BROKEN SOPHIA
Back in her room, Sophia breaks down after reading the social media comments about her, she planted, and then starts writing a suicide or farewell note which says. “I’m tired of begging for forgiveness for my mistakes. All I wanted was to move forward, to be loved and understood. But it’s clear that I was never going to get that. Holly Jonas said that I was dead to her. So, as her former BFF, I’m going to make her dream a reality.”

A DEADLY TRAP
Now, the fate of Johnny, Chanel and Sophia will be revealed on tomorrow’s May 1st cliffhanger, which may be the end of Sophia when she crosses paths with Kirsten at the bridge near the river. We do know Rachel Boyd is no longer appearing in the show credits section and is now off contract with the soap.
So, what did you think of the climatic final moments of DAYS? What did you think of the performance of Rachel Boyd as Sophia Choi? Let us know via the comment section.
