Cole’s (J. Eddie Peck) death will go down as one of Y&R’s shocking moments this year. Everything was going well for Cole and Victoria (Amelia Heinle), who had reunited with their long-lost daughter, Claire (Hayley Erin). However, their happiness would be short-lived.
Following a trip, Cole returned home with a lingering cough, which led to more health issues and hospitalization. Despite the doctors’ efforts, Cole’s condition worsened, and he passed away.

Cole’s death has not only devastated Victoria and Claire, but also fans. However, not everyone is convinced Cole is dead.
On Reddit, a fan theory suggests that Jordan (Colleen Zenk) may have come back to rescue her nephew.
“I know a lot of people didn’t care for Cole, but as a loyal fan since the 80s, I loved him. So disappointed they killed him off. I’m hoping and praying Jordan is out there and has him locked up somewhere,” one fan speculated.
While most commenters thought this theory was impossible, some believe it could happen.
“No one is ever really dead in Soapland unless they donate an organ to another character,” wrote one viewer.
Although Jordan died back in January, there’s always the possibility she’s still alive. With how sneaky and resourceful she is, she could still be keeping an eye on her family. Upon hearing of Cole’s diagnosis, Jordan could’ve faked his death and is secretly caring for him.
Could Cole — and perhaps Jordan — return from the dead one day? Let us know what you think in the comments section.
