Lately, there hasn’t been a major focus on Devon and Abby on The Young and the Restless. However, that may come to an end soon. It appears that their marriage is about to be put to the test. Bryton James revealed what fans can expect in the coming months.

Key Takeaways

  • Devon and Abby’s relationship didn’t start off romantically.
  • They cheated on their respective exes, Amanda and Chance.
  • James teased that “danger” could impact their marriage.

How It Started

Abby’s (Melissa Ordway, who prepared for Genoa City winter) and Devon’s (Bryton James) relationship was originally tumultuous and turbulent at best. The two had an affair while Abby was married to Chance (then Donny Boaz), while Devon was in a relationship with Amanda (Mishael Morgan).

To add fuel to the fire, Abby gave birth to a baby with Devon, which brought them closer together. Dominic was conceived via a sperm donation from Devon. Their relationship was sparked by the secrets that they kept from their respective exes.

However, they were able to overcome the odds and silence their critics. Last year, the two got married in a grand wedding at the newly unveiled Newman Ranch. Up to this point, they have demonstrated that they are devoted and committed to one another, despite their past indiscretions.

How It’s Going

Devon and Abby haven’t been a focal point on the soap. They’ve mostly appeared for holidays and special occasions. Currently, most of the storylines involve Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) and Noah’s (Lucas Adams) car accident.

Mitch Bacall is back from the dead, which spells trouble for Nick (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon (Sharon Case). That’s not the only “danger” that’s lurking. Bryton James appeared on the TV Watercooler podcast with his co-star Jason Thompson.

Both of them teased what fans can expect from their characters in the new year. James hinted at trouble for Devon and Abby’s marriage. At first, he shared that there’s “quite a bit of drama coming up for ‘Dabby.'”

Then, he spilled more details. “Devon’s going to find someone in his immediate family in danger, and that’s going to put Devon and Abby’s marriage to the test in new ways,” the actor said.

Who Will End Up In Danger?

James has been “excited” about seeing how this new storyline will play out. However, he couldn’t share anymore. Which of Devon’s family members will end up in danger? Perhaps Lily (Christel Khalil) will end up in trouble, which could lead to the actress taking maternity leave.

Or, it could be Devon’s cousin, Nate (Sean Dominic), who could find himself in harm’s way. Victoria (Amelia Heinle) has grown closer to him after Cole (J. Eddie Peck) died.

Victor (Eric Braeden) won’t be happy about this since he still has a bone to pick with Nate. Does this mean that Devon will have to go up against Abby’s father?
