THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Sharon Finds Out Rey is Dead in Heartbreaking Performance from Sharon Case
Thursday’s episode of Y&R, brought with it reactions to the news of death of Rey Rosales (Jordi Vilasuso) by many key Genoa City residents, but most importantly his wife, Sharon (Sharon Case). While fans have been vocal on social media that Rey was killed-off camera, and the exit of Daytime Emmy-winner, Jordi Vilasuso, the soap still managed to bring us some riveting moments from the cast within the storyline.
Throughout the hour, Sharon looks quite upset, but trying to keep it all in check, as if she knows what’s about to happen, and certainly after she hears about the accident that Victoria was involved in.

Before Sharon finds out Rey has died, Victoria (Amelia Heinle) is told by Ashland (Robert Newman) while she is suffering from injuries sustained in the car crash. She demands Ashland take her to Rey, and that is death is all her fault. Ashland tells Victoria what he saw since he was in the car behind her. He tells her she swerved to avoid hitting Rey’s oncoming car, and crashed into a tree. Victoria thanks Ashland for saving her life.
Back at Crimson Lights, and to wrap-up whatever story could have been brewing between Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) and Rey, Sharon calls Chelsea out on her attraction and the connection she has to her husband. She suggests that Chelsea is happy to have a night with Rey and Connor. Chelsea says she knows Rey is married to her, but that Rey is a terrific man. The two, in the calmest manner possible, say that they appreciate the others honesty and that’s as far as it goes.
Meanwhile, Chance (Conner Floyd) gets a call from the police department about the three-car accident and heads out of Crimson Light where he was hanging out with Connor and Chelsea. Elsewhere, Nick (Joshua Morrow), who has left Victor (Eric Braeden) and Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) to find Victoria, calls Victor from the crash site. He informs his parents that there is no sign of Victoria, or Ashland, but that Rey Rosales was involved in the accident and is dead.
Victor and Nikki head out to find Victoria and Ashland and find them in the deserted shed near the accident. Victor looks not too happy that Ashland was the one who saved Victoria’s life. Chance is at the crash scene and in discussion with Nick, and they decide that Nick should be the one that tells Sharon the tragic news about Rey, not a police officer she doesn’t know.

At the end of the episode, Nick walks in to Crimson Lights, and Sharon already knows in her gut that Rey is dead, but she gets so upset that she begins to just talk non-stop about Rey. As she starts to break down, she tells Nick that before she tells her that what happened, she just needs a minute, Finally, Nick reveals to Sharon that Rey has died. Next, Sharon crumbles into Nick’s arms as she sobs uncontrollably that Rey is gone. It was a gut-wrenching performance from longtime Y&R all-star, Sharon Case.
Watch the final moments where Nick tells Sharon about Rey below in two clips.
Then, let us know, what did you think of the episode? How do you feel about Rey being killed off-screen? What did you think of the performances of Sharon Case, Amelia Heinle, Joshua Morrow and Robert Newman? Share your thoughts in the comment section.
We need an entire box of tissues after watching this scene on #YR today 😭😭😭 pic.twitter.com/bzuHyV8SBs

Sorry to be a downer but I found the crying really “actory” and fake. Didn’t care for the scene. But then, to be fair, I am bitter over losing Jordi Vilasuso — who apparently DIED OFF SCREEN. Unbelievable.
Hollyoaksboi…There is sobbing, or crying. I think Sharon did a little of both, but caught herself to show some sort of control and having to be strong for everyone. And babble talking. Like wanting to talk to Mariah about planning her wedding in the middle of Rey dying. I just don’t think she has really allowed herself to show how she is really feeling…devastated.
But I’m really upset about how they treated Rey the character, and that Jordi is gone. To the point his funeral might be in Miami.
Also I think the actor playing Ashland is doing his best acting surrounding the accident since taking over this role.
I agree, Rose. Robert and Amelia have finally figured out their scenes together. And I always loved Jordi as Tony on GL, and was super excited for him to be on Y and R, though the writers butchered the entire Rosales family unfortunately. They had so much potential!
Why was He taken off the Show. Jordin Vilasuso,I am very Upset.
No o think her performance was great sad to say to many people really go throw this and it breaks my heart
Very moving scene. Sharon Case brought it!
I figured if they killed Rey off Sharon Case would have some major scenes to play and we know she’s up for it, starting with this scene when Nick told her.
But I am fed-up that they let Jordi V. go. I’ve not heard anything about what their rationale was for making this decision – we do sometimes hear a “reason” – but this makes no sense in my opinion and I just don’t understand it. Loved him.
It was heartbreaking, even if I never liked Rey or the actor.
This was a great scene and great acting today. Rey was not a good character he was very wooden and brought nothing to the show . Keep the veteran actors front and centre . Imagine this scene with old Young and the Restless music . The old music brings so much to this show. I don’t understand how the TPTB don’t get it . Or maybe they do ? Does playing the old background music cost more ? When Lynn Marie Latham was there, the background music was good , as well as Maria Arena Bell . Once Jill Pharen Phelps came onboard the show lost its heart and soul. Jill Pharen Phelps almost killed this show , then Chuck Pratt made it laughable , and the Next regime stripped the show of most of the remaining quality .
Yes. George. The music score is sooo important to add depth. The last several years background musics been frankly embarrassing for this show. Also how poor is the show that there’s only 4 sets in rotation for several weeks at a time? I think the problem may be the vet actors take up to much budget. I feel it’s time Eric, Melody and Peter go on recurring possibly like Lauren does inwhich they are on often enough to back up stories but aren’t the prime focus. I d rather newer fresher character get stories but ones still tied to the core families. It’s clear y n r s become too cash strapped.
George Wilks,
Sorry to disagree with you but Jordi is a great actor. I’ve seen him on numerous shows and if he was wooden to you, it’s probably the way he was directed in the scenes. I don’t think the actors, except for old Victor are given Carte Blanche, they have to follow a script, no matter how bad it is. Sorry you don’t have the old music that you seem to dwell on and find so important to the show. I liked the old stuff too. Did you watch ATWT? That organ music at the beginning gave me chills every day for years, I never got sick of it.
Agree Violet
Rey was sooo good opposite his brother Arturo and ex Mia. Once he was left as Sharon’s prop he was only as good as the very poor writing
Call me crazy—it wouldn’t be the first time—but, I called Ashland’s fake illness almost as soon as the character was introduced.
Now, the accident and Ray’s death—( great acting by Ms Case, BTW)–
What if Ashland planned the “accident”? Sadly, Ray was not part of the plan–hopefully, Chance will do a thorough investigation, and voila’—Ashland finally kicked to the curb by Victoria!!
Hi CELIA! Two things: first, thanks for the good chuckle about Chance conducting a thorough investigation. Unless it’s involving the hair care aisle at Wal-Mart, I can’t picture him doing anything thoroughly. He sure is cute, though. Next, I had some misgivings about this illness of Ashland’s but I was assuaged when they CHEATED and showed scenes of him grabbing his chest, etc., when no one else was present, indicating it was genuine. Plays like bait & switch to me. So what’s next? Looks like Chelsea and Chance are hitting it off AGAIN, now dragging in Conner as the bait. Nick and Sharon AGAIN? OK but let it last a while! At least we’ve had a break from Devon this week. Oh…what if Lola returns for Rey’s funeral at the same time as Kyle’s return? Hmm….
Chance—what can I say?? He’s just there. Glad you “got” my satire—now, he’s the only cop in GC. I’m sure he’ll get to the bottom of this accident which I believe was no accident. He will work so diligently–
I’m not into his hair. It looks matted and infantile. If you ask me, he and Abby act more like mother and son than husband and wife—
As far as Sharon and Nick—I’ve been waiting for years for them to be a couple again.
I was still in grade school when their little romance “bloomed”—I was enchanted and Nick was so hot—
I was so young, Soaphound, and infatuated with my future husband, who considered me an annoying pest!! I used to fantasize whenever Nick and Sharon had a scene together, pretend and dream away…..
Chance and Chelsea? I hope not—can’t stand her. Never did.
Then there’s Victoria and Ashland—I’m so confused. What are the writers doing? Are they entertaining a “remake”?
Celia, your infatuation sounds sweet and refreshingly old-fashioned to me. And fantasies? I can’t even start on mine when Billy Miller was Billy Abbott. And yes, it did continue as Drew Cain. The guy just pushes my buttons, like Jeremy Renner and Mark Wahlberg on big screens. I really like Noah, too, but he might be a tad young for me. Not that I’d refuse…
Oh, Souphound—you always manage to make my day!! Believe me–Billy Miller is second on my list. The number one spot is reserved for my gorgeous hubby!!
He still manages to make my heart skip a beat after almost fourteen years of marriage.
I agree, Noah is cute—do not cut yourself short—as you can see from these soaps, age means nothing. In my mind’s eye, you are one beautiful woman!! Yeah!!
And, yes—I am sort of old-fashioned, I guess.
Did you watch Y&R in the mid to late 90’s? Nick and Sharon were THE “thing”. I think Case won for best young actress award, or something…if I am not mistaken.
Well, Nick was IT for me. He is still hot, in my opinion.
Thanks, Celia. Noah is a dreamboat, alright. I just wish he’d get a decent story. I loved the five measly minutes when he agreed to work with uncle Adam. They pulled that plug fast enough! Why…too much heat? Yes, I’ve watched the Shick pairing for decades and love when they’re together. Especially the cat claws with Miss Nikki Newman. The last go round, Nick lured Sharon into a daytime bath…his hair was longer then, the way I prefer, and I swear my television was about to overheat. Josh is 48 this year and just keeps getting better…in every way. I remember when Sharon won her Emmy back in 1999. IMO, she deserves a lot more than one, and as LEAD actress, not supporting. Maybe this year?
SC and JM are magic on screen together even when it’s not romantic. You can tell how much these two actors care about one another as Co workers as it comes across in every scene.
I never cared for Rey or the Rosales family. Much of it was how they were introduced into the show and the fact that it came at the expense of veteran characters having meaty story. Rey’s presence essentially removed Paul from the canvas, which was made even stranger by other characters mentioning him by name but viewers never seeing him.
–
However, there was lots of potential recently with Rey and Chelsea growing closer, which would inevitably create drama and include Sharon, Nick and potentially Adam and Sally in the story as well. Going this route with Rey closes the door on the Rosales family seemingly for good.
–
As for the way Rey died, I have a feeling Ashland played a major part in the “accident.” Maybe he rigged Victoria’s car to crash? I just can’t see it being blamed on the fog and no other explanation. Why was Ashland even on the road that night? And how will this impact his relationship with Victoria going forward?
She is always supportive of her fellow actors her kind words to Jordi if JG had invested in this couple but he doesn’t but that’s another story but the end game has always been her and JM and the moving thing is they know what the other one is thinking and it’s awesome to watch
Sharon Case and Josh Morrow together are everything! These two belong together. Sharon sensing something wrong and just rambling to delay Nick telling her was sooo gutwrenching!
Kudos to these two soulful actors. Kudos also to Amelia and Robert Newman in their scenes in the cabin.
However the complete disrespectful way the show rid of Rey was just nasty. No last scenes with Sharon really. No playing out the Chelsea angle to really put some serious rift between her and Sharon. How great would be a kiss been in Chicago and a fight between Sharon and Rey or Rey telling Chelsea his insecurities with Sharon and Nick ? We got weeks of lead up to Diane’s return in that empty home in L.a which led to Jordi getting the budget cut axe but we could nt get one week of last scene lead ups for this story?! Further all the Rosalles have been horribly fired and had no real closures longer than a day or two. Josh keeps scrambling for ‘ bigger name ‘ returns that let’s been honest go nowhere! Michelle Staffords huge return as Phyllis. Two years now…
I wish Josh Morrow would stop his shoulder-rolling thing and take his hands out of his pockets. Or at least pull something interesting out of his pockets. Like maybe some acting tips from Robert Newman, who is blowing me away with the mediocre material he was handed.
General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Cullum Kidnaps Obrecht as Britt’s Replacement to Finish Faison’s Final Project
WSB director Ross Cullum is truly as despicable villain as they come, and played with steely intensity by Andrew Hawkes. For the double agents latest crime, you need to look no further than the Friday, June 5 cliffhanger of General Hospital, where in the episode’s final moments he sneaks up on an unassuming Dr. Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) after hiding in the back seat of her car.
Next, he chloroforms her with his intent clear. He plans on forcing her to finish the last leg of Faison’s final project at Wyndemere, since her daughter Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) left town with Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) in tow to get away from Cullum!
In what led to the kidnapping, Cullum had a terse conversation with his business associate and co-conspirator on the project, Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota). It is Sidwell who is preoccupied with wanting to bring Marco’s killer to justice (not knowing it’s the man right in front of him!). Sidwell told Cullum if bringing Marco’s killer to justice wasn’t a priority for the WSB director, then why should protecting Cullum be a priority for him?
SIDWELL VS. CULLUM
The two finally put aside their differences as they have to complete Faison’s final project for it will be highly lucrative for them, useful for their mutual gains, and groundbreaking. In order to do that they need a great mind with a scientific background to finish it up and get them to the finish line since Britt as disappeared.
Later, outside of “General Hospital,” Obrecht is headed back to her car after searching Britt’s office for any clues as to the whereabouts of her daughter. But when she got in the car to drive away, that’s when the aforementioned Cullum strikes!

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Katie and Brooke Have the ‘Sister’ of All Blowouts! Did Heather Tom Just Secure Another Emmy Nomination?
The Friday, June 5 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful served up words of jealously, years of pent up rage, and old and new wounds, when Brooke Logan Forrester (Katherine Kelly Lang) had a confrontation with her sister Katie Logan (Heather Tom).
The fallout happened with Katie’s desire to keep her new fashion house Logan alive while Brooke lets her know in no uncertain terms to stay away from her “turf” and stop pouching employees like Brooke believes Katie did with Eric Forrester (John McCook). However, as viewers know, Ridge put his father out to pasture, and Katie was looking for a new designer to jump start her new fashion house and Eric wanted to do it.
While you think that’s all water under the bridge, now there is Brooke’s daughter, Hope (Annika Noelle), jus waiting to jump on board as Logan’s new lead designer, something that Brooke is currently unaware of. One thing led to another, and six-time Daytime Emmy winner, Heather Tom does what she does best when given the material, she “Heather Tom’d it!”
Photo: JPI
We predict come the 2027 Daytime Emmy Awards this could certainly be on Heather’s reel if she chose to submit it. Let’s take a look and the hostile words that were thrown in the writing of the scene.
LOGAN VS. FORRESTER CREATIONS
Katie: “Look at the things that you’ve done, not just to me, but too so many people.”
Brooke follows: “Well, there it is. Proof that your anger really does exist. It’s always been you, me and Donna, the Logan women. And now since this quest of yours, I feel like you’re driving a wedge between us and that isn’t healthy for any of us, especially you, Katie and lashing out. That is not the answer. I’m just afraid that this will go badly for you. You said that you were going to strike out on your own. Instead, you used my name Logan. You tricked Eric and then you had the audacity to show his designs after he begged you not to. What is going on?
Katie responds, “I’m tired of you telling me over and over again how crushed he is. How devastated emotionally he is, because Logan used his designs as their first collection, A collection, by the way, that was overwhelmingly successful that everyone loved. I did nothing to degrade his reputation. So, if he is so crushed, if he’s so ashamed of working with me, then he needs to tell that to my face. He doesn’t need you to be his messenger.”
Brooke adds, “You humiliated him. You disrespected him. I don’t know what’s going on with you, but just stay away from Forrester OK? Do whatever you need to do. Go hire another designer. But stay off my turf and don’t you dare pull another stunt like you did last time, stealing Eric from us. Just leave Forrester Creations alone. It is a warning. Don’t mess with the Forrester’s. Stay out of our business.”

An enraged Katie warns Brooke, “You stay out of mine. You’re running a family company with Eric and Ridge and Steffy. Well, I’m running a family company too with the Spencer’s. Liam and Bill.”
A condescending Brooke says, “I’m glad you recognize that Forrester is my family business with Eric Ridge. Hope, Steffy and me, and we are committed to Forrester’s success, united in purpose with Eric’s return, the new couture line, reestablishing hope and Hope for the Future”
And that is when we the gloves really come off. Katie goes in on Brooke: “How’s that going for you? It seems to me that Ridge and Steffy are just fine with killing the whole line. How exactly have you advocated for Hope, Brooke? How exactly? Have you put her first? She’s never been first in your life and she knows it. Everyone knows that Ridge is first. Always has been your destiny. Hope grew up in a household where, for all intents and purposes, Ridge was her father figure. Did he ever treat her as a daughter? No. He has nothing but contempt for her, and you allow that. Why, Brooke? I’ll tell you why because she’s the result of yet another betrayal of your other daughter. She is your dirty little mistake!”
THE SLAP THAT COULD CHANGE KATIE AND BROOKE’S RELATIONSHIP FOREVER
With that Brooke slaps her sister. Katie snaps and threatens Brooke, “Don’t you ever put your hands on me like that again. I am not your punching back, literally or figuratively. I’m going to tell you something and you better listen! I am gonna do everything in my power to make sure that Logan succeeds”
Brooke says, “That is great because I swear I want you to succeed. I hope that you do well.” A angered Katie says, “That’s all I need, Brooke. Just a little ‘hope’ and you’re gonna see soon enough!”
As Katie says those words, she is staring at a photo of Brooke and Hope together, with Brooke in the dark that her very own daughter is going to jump ship to Logan, soon enough.
So, what did you think of the confrontation scenes between Brooke and Katie on Friday’s episode of The Bold and the Beautiful? Do you think Heather Tom might get nominated for an Emmy for these scenes (if she were to enter the race in 2027)? Let us know via the comment section below.
In one of the more far-fetched soap opera moments in recent memory, while Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) and Willow Cain (Katelyn MacMullen) are chatting at the Quartermaine boathouse in swimming trunks for him and a bikini for her, the two exes have a heart to heart on Wednesday’s June 3 episode of General Hospital.
The moment was set-up by Michael (Rory Gibson) and Jacinda (Paige Herschell) who want to find a way to push the exes together in order to get incriminating evidence of the two, so Michael can gain leverage over Willow for full custody of their children. once and for all. Jacinda notes how Chase definitely has a savior and white knight syndrome going on.
During Willow and Chase’s chat at the boathouse, the subject turns to how Chase was demoted at the PCPD in his efforts to help get Willow acquitted of attempted murder charges at her trial for the shooting of Drew. He has since gone from detective to patrolman. However, Willow comes up with an idea! Why doesn’t he come to work for her as her chief of staff. Willow feels he would be perfect, because he is only one of the only people she can trust.

WILLOW LAYS OUT THE BENEFITS OF CHASE ACCEPTING HER JOB OFFER
A surprised Chase, says he isn’t qualified, but Willow thinks otherwise. She urges him to consider the position she is offering, because it would give him a more regular schedule that would be befitting for him being a new father to baby Phoebe.
Chase’s want to know why it was so important to Willow that he take the job, she continues to explain how she trusts him, but Tracy (Jane Elliot) spots the two in a close moment and hides behind the boathouse. Willow exits, but asks Chase to promise he will think over her offer.
Next, Tracy threatens Chase that this is the last time he will cheat on her granddaughter, Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton). Knowing he didn’t “cheat” on his wife, Chase looks pissed off.
So, can you imagine, Chase as Willow’s Chief of Staff? Weigh-in if you think he will be stupid enough to take this job knowing the issues it would cause for Brook Lynn? Will the police officer ever get the clue that Willow is manipulating him like she does to everyone else? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
