TODAY'S Y&R: Phyllis Blurts Out The Truth About Summer To Jack! – Watch the Preview!

Courtesy/CBS
Finally, the truth comes out to Jack when after the kiss between Phyllis and Jack’s son, Kyle comes to light! Just what will Jack do when he learns that Summer is the bio-dad of Summer and not Nick? Will Jack press her into revealing how long she and Nick knew the truth? So many questions!
Whatever the case, today’s episode and the fallout should provide some meaty material for three-time Daytime Emmy winner, Peter Bergman (Jack) and two-time Daytime Emmy winner, Michelle Stafford (Phyllis) to sink their teeth into!
So are you happy that the reveal will finally come out to Jack? Did you want Jack or Nick to end up being the bio-dad of Summer? What do you think will happen to Jack and Phyllis’ relationship after this bombshell hits Jack, especially since Michelle Stafford is exiting the series in the near future?
Watch a preview clip of Phyllis telling Jack the truth after the jump from today’s Y&R, an then let us know your thoughts!
If Y&R want a Summer /Kyle pairing, Kyle’s paternity will have to be changed. Could Victor be Kyle’s father Since Diane stole what she thought was Jack’s sperm?
Just asking?
Susan they are all over the internet saying Sharon changed the tests to make it look like Jack is Summers father. And so the continuation of the destruction of the Sharon character continues. As far as I am concerned Sharon Case blew me away with her scenes with Cassie a mother’s love over the death of a child never goes away. Peter Bergman was good as usual for me MS looks bored and ready to be gone.
We are day ahead in Canada- just watched what will be Mon. July 15th show today. All I can say is the rumors are true. I was lucky I did not have a brick to throw at my television- because I was mad as hell. Not only are they destroying Sharon’s credibility again– they are messing with the show’s as well. If Summer was really Jack’s daughter it would have been a good story line- now it is just a gimmick. I know from other posts you are on verge of quitting this show- well Monday’s show might just be the last nail in the coffin for you. I will stay, till the bitter end, but I don’t blame you for giving up.
I heard that this morning what happens I am very sorry they did this. JFP is killing two birds with one stone I guess either SC will get tired of it and quit or JFP will push her out. JFP hates strong actresses why do you think she has pushed SC & MS out and made Jessica Collins & MCE front and center. Sharon Case for some reason has been MAB & now JFP’s whipping tool. MTS basically does not even have a storyline anymore. All they have done is prop up Steve Burton. Off subject but someone told me MM/Adam has quit Twitter and I think it is probably because he is pretty vocal and I know he probably can’t stand what they are doing with his character. I will be honest Mary not sure I can watch it anymore! I applaud you for being loyal and hanging in there but this is not my first rodeo with JFP with what she did to my beloved Frankie Frame on AW.
Going to continue with my rant in what universe would Sharon say to Nick you have always been there for me? Yeah right took her daughter Faith from her at every turn let her sit in jail for a crime she did not commit and when Cassie died was no comfort instead slept with Phyllis cause it is and always has been about him. But on another note Phyllis changed the paternity on Daniel basically started the fire in the lab that killed Sasha tried to run over Cricket and yet we all forgave her so what the hell right. So be it!
Hey Mary I guess they are giving one of the writers of Y&R on twitter fits I guess it is all really silly we have had bad storylines before. Here is a storyline send Sharon to a nuthouse real soon and meet a dashing shrink! LOL
Mary SF probably will not watch Monday’s episode we are leaving the country tomorrow for a while you hang in there I wish you god speed with Y&R me I am done! Good luck god speed!
And one more comment Mary you are probably one of the most gracious people on this board. Good luck god speed!
thanks k/kay you always had great comments too— don’t know if you will read this before you go- but have a safe journey. God bless and take care.
So by far one of the best episodes written by Josh to date. Bergman and King BOTH did a phenomenal job with their material. I’m sure this will be part of someone’s Emmy submission next year. Very well done. More!
I just hope that all those stupid rumors about Sharon having anything to do with tampering is just that or what was the point. Now if they would just back off of the Dylan character so much I might be able to get back on board with this show.
I agree I am praying that they did not have Sharon mess with the test. If it turns out to be true I might just throw a brick at the television. First, like you, I don’t get why after redeeming Sharon, they are having her go backwards and pine for Nick, with or without a test switch, it is lame. Second– I hate, I really hate when writers thrown in dramatic scenes like the ones they are having, just to say later, it wasn’t true. If it turns out to be a cheap ratings grab the show will lose some of its credibility for me-and the next time a highly dramatic reveal comes out, it will be meaningless to me,knowing it can and mostly likely be undone later. If I can’t believe what I am seeing on screen is true, then the show starts to lose its emotional appeal for me. It is the same reason I don’t like coming back from the dead story lines.
As for Dylan– it is obvious they didn’t really have a character or story in mind for Steve and they are making it up as they go. Right now it seems they are putting him everywhere with everyone trying to decide what the heck they are going to do with him, now that they got him.
Here was a thought I had the other day Mary I think SB had the best chemistry with Sharon why could he have not been a recast Sam. I know everybody hated that storyline but it would have got her out of the orbit of the Newmans and I liked her beginning to be the sweet gal she was when she was created by Bill Bell.
I will say the character Phyliss’s broomstick must have been going warp speed from Chicago to Genoa City back to Chicago in one episode. Hmm
I am a Sharon fan, some in my family are not. Don’t know how the writers are going to play this out. I don’t think Sharon would know how to change a paternity test, just plain stupid writing.. I will be so, so mad if they put this all on sharon.
Must give credit to yesterday & today shows, very good. I did not have to FF any.
Can’t wait until Michael beats Carnine”s A$$….
It’s about time. They’ve been dragging this out way too long.
Well, I will be watching Y&R at 7p EST on TVGN in about 30 minutes but have seen previews. I honestly believe Sharon somehow changed the tests because she wants to go back to a time in her life when everything was good for her; that is when she and Nick was doing well. Notice how she subconsciously conjured up Cassie. Boy this was a bad move Sharon. This truth not truth will affect so many. I am wondering how this will affect Michelle Stafford exit. They have not said if she will be replaced or what only that it will be dramatic. I guess we will see.
Just watched Tuesday’s episode… WELL DONE!!! All four performances were stellar… Joshua, Michelle, Peter, and Hunter!!! I think it was very well wrtten and directed! It’s a sad but touching situation with some incredible performances!!! Well Done Y&R!!!
I hate to see michelle Stafford leave the young and the restless she is so good on that show.

Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun Written Out of The Young and the Restless

It looks like the current run of Lucas Adams (Noah) and Tamara Braun (Sienna) on The Young and the Restless is coming to an end, after the Monday, August 3 edition of the CBS daytime drama revealed that Noah and Sienna are leaving Genoa City and heading back to Los Angeles.
In the storyline, Noah informed his mother, Sharon (Sharon Case) and half-sister Mariah (Camryn Grimes) that he and Sienna made the decision to move back to the West Coast to put distance between themselves and Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). Although Noah did not say it was a permanent move, he did assure his mom that once Matt is hopefully gone from Genoa City they could return.
However, as previewed already on the video teaser for this week’s episodes of Y&R (see below), it appears Noah left Genoa City’s The Shadow Room to be run by a returning Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian). So with that, coupled with today’s episode, it would appear the move could wind up being more permanent.

COMINGS AND GOINGS
Adams made his Y&R debut on November 4, 2025 as the successor to Rory Gibson who last played Noah on-screen in April of 2023. Earlier in 2025, Gibson took over the role of Michael Corinthos on Genera Hospital replacing Chad Duell, who stepped away from the part after 15 years.
Braun who played Adam’s mother on Days of Our Lives when she was Ava Vitali and he was Tripp Dalton, first appeared on Y&R back on October 14, 2025, where we soon learned she had become Noah’s lover as the new character, Sienna Bacall. It should be noted, Adams was on contract with the number #1 soap, while Braun has been on recurring status.
With Josh Griffith now exited as head writer of The Young and the Restless, and the newly announced co-head writing team of Jamey Giddens and Dan O’Connor having taken his place and starting their new tenure this week, it will be interesting to see how the duo resets the show, and if a Noah and Sienna return is in the cards for the future or not.
So, what do you think about the seeming departures of Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun from The Young and the Restless? Weigh-in via the comment section. But first, check out our recent live chat with Tamara and Lucas on the Michael Fairman Channel.

Rosie O’Donnell Says She Will Return to ‘The View’ During its Season 30

Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.
The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.
The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW
As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.
O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”
Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”
You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.
Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.
