What to Watch Next Week
Chelsea (RhonniRose Mantilla) and Kat (Colby Nixon) find themselves in the middle of a scandal next week. These two are used to bad press. Chelsea’s a social media influencer who was kidnapped. Last year also saw the cousins face a horrible lawsuit just as they were starting their handbag business.
And now participating in the Tokyo collective fashion event is no longer an option. This scandal surrounding the company ChelseaKat LLC has been working with isn’t likely to be good for business. Not when the final teaser for the week says, “Chelsea falls out of fashion.” Ruh roh. Looks like there’s trouble ahead. Things have been going way too smoothly for them professionally.
Meanwhile, the emotions will be heightened next week. Hayley (Marquita Goings) is brought to tears. A heated Elon (Malachi Malik) gives Joey (Jon Lindstrom) the third degree, and he clashes with his son, Jacob (Jibre Hordges). Yes, Jacob, not Izaiah (Lami).
And Naomi (Arielle Prepetit, a 2026 Daytime Emmy nominee) is overwhelmed when she bites off more than she can chew. She has her own practice. And she has been worried about her father’s health. Now she is taking on this new joint case with Bill (Timon Kyle Durrett, a 2026 Daytime Emmy nominee). It’s a lot even for a superhero overachiever like Naomi.
Elsewhere, Heather’s (Ashley Jones) continued presence in the DMV will create drama. Look for the woman also known as The Impaler to make a bold move. She does this while Smitty’s (Mike Manning, a 2026 Daytime Emmy nominee) suspicions start to spiral and Andre (Sean Freeman) unpacks his paranoia.
One more story to look out for is whatever is going on with Vanessa (Lauren Buglioli) and Deanna (Angela Fairley). The mother and daughter discover something from before Doug’s (Jason Graham) death. How will they react to this discovery?
