Key Takeaways
- Sharon and Chelsea have a tumultuous past on Y&R due to their shared history with Adam and Nick.
- They would often see each other as rivals rather than friends.
- Recently, Sharon and Chelsea made peace with each other after finding common ground.
Sharon and Chelsea’s Past
In the past, Sharon (Sharon Case) and Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan, who issued an urgent health warning to all women) didn’t get along because of their history with Adam (Mark Grossman) and Nick (Joshua Morrow). They each have intertwined romantic histories with both Newman men, which was the driving force of their tension.
They acted as rivals. While they would normally find common ground in mutual support, they often experience jealousy and tension, especially when they’re on opposing sides of confrontations.
Despite their rivalry, they have expressed compassion towards one another. Sharon offered Chelsea support after she was in the throes of her mental health struggles.
Finally Seeking Common Ground?
In recent episodes, Sharon and Chelsea compared notes, and they shared the same concerns. Chelsea visited Sharon at Crimson Lights to discuss Adam helping Nick in Las Vegas.
She admitted that she’s scared by what could happen. Sharon was relieved to know that Adam was helping Nick. But she’s aware that Chelsea fears Adam getting caught up in his old life.
Chelsea believed that Adam had changed for the better. She’s worried that this trip to Las Vegas could resurface his suppressed feelings and cause him to head down a self-destructive path.
Their Unlikely Bond
Both have bonded over their mental health issues. They also have kids struggling with their mental health. Chelsea asked Sharon how Mariah (Camryn Grimes) was doing lately.
She’s seen her around the ranch, but didn’t think she was ready to talk. Sharon shared that Mariah has been seeing a reputable therapist, but was aware that her daughter is withdrawn.
Chelsea assured Sharon to be patient. She recalled when Connor would be the same, and now he’s come so far. Sharon was grateful to hear that Connor was part of Mariah’s family.
This reveals that Chelsea and Sharon have put the past behind them. Since Sharon and Phyllis’s (Michelle Stafford) friendship might be over, these two could become BFFs instead.
