Key Takeaways
- Abby and Devon have been experiencing marital problems.
- During a visit with Jack, Abby admitted things aren’t well.
- Abby later broke down after confessing about her marriage trouble.
Rough Patch
Jack’s (Peter Bergman) hospitalization has brought out all the Abbotts. Aside from Ashley’s (Eileen Davidson) return, Abby (Melissa Ordway) also made an appearance.
The Newman heiress was one of the many visitors at Jack’s bedside. Jack was happy to have his niece there, but he couldn’t help noticing Abby wasn’t acting like herself.
Although Abby shrugged off his concern, she later confessed to Jack that everything wasn’t fine. She admitted that Devon (Bryton James) is going through a rough patch, but she’s trying to manage.
Jack comforted Abby by saying she and Devon would find a way to work through their problems. He told Abby he was there for her if she ever needed to talk.
Since Jack had his recent marital issues with Diane (Susan Walters), it’s understandable why Abby confided in him. And Abby might need Jack’s help more than she realizes.
Breaking Down
After leaving Jack’s room, Abby broke down in tears, revealing she’s not as strong as she seems. When fans last saw Abby and Devon, it appeared he was finally ready to work on his anger problems. But now he might have broken his promise.
Devon’s dealing with a lot of anger. Between Mariah (Camryn Grimes) kidnapping Dominic (Ethan Ray Clark) to Lily’s (Christel Khalil) reunion with Cane (Billy Flynn), there’s a lot of things irritating Devon.
Although Abby is trying to be supportive and help Devon, it’s taking a toll on her. Abby is becoming exhausted walking on eggshells around Devon.
She loves Devon and wants to do everything to save their marriage. Yet, it seems like she’s the one doing all the work, and Devon is set in his ways.
Abby’s seen many of her family members overcome marital problems, including Jack and Diane. Although Abby wants to remain hopeful, it’s obvious her optimism is waning.
With Mariah set to be released soon, Abby and Devon’s marriage troubles might worsen. Abby will also be faced with a big decision about whether to continue fighting for her marriage or walk away from Devon.
