Holden is head over heels for Claire on The Young and the Restless. However, Mr. Novak could be in for a world of hurt when Claire’s true intentions are revealed.
Key Takeaways
- Claire and Holden recently took their friendship to the next level.
- After their L.A. trip, Claire wants to slow things down.
- Claire’s decision came after she got Holden to tell her about Audra’s secret.
Love Em’ and Leave Em’
Claire (Hayley Erin) and Holden (Nathan Owens) have become one of Y&R’s most talked about couples. After her breakup with Kyle (Michael Mealor), Claire was ready to let loose and have fun. Holden took her on the adventure of a lifetime with their trip to Los Angeles.
Their getaway was interesting in several ways. First, the couple gave in to temptation and finally made love. Later Claire got a glimpse into Holden and Audra’s (Zuleyka Silver) past when he finally confessed about their secret.
Now that they’re back in Genoa City, things seem to be cooling off for Holden and Claire. She wants to take things slow, which Holden respects. However, he might be in for heartache when the real Claire emerges.
Claire returning to her bad girl ways has been foreshadowed, and Holden might be one of her victims. On Reddit, Y&R fans expressed their belief that Claire is using Holden to get back at Kyle and Audra. “Claire played Holden to get EXACTLY what she wanted, which was a simple fling with a different man. The sad part for me is that I think Holden is really into her,” wrote one viewer.
“I agree Claire is not that innocent. She even told us this! I think she has played a lot of folks,” one commenter responded. “I don’t have a problem with Claire sewing her wild oats, as it were, but I thought her comments about him were out of line, based on what we’ve heard about him,” another fan wrote.
Heartbreak For Holden
Audra’s warned Holden not to be too trusting of Claire, and he might regret his decision based on Claire’s next actions. First, it seems like Claire might not be over Kyle like she claimed. With Claire conflicted over both men, Holden could be left out in the cold if Claire chooses Kyle.
Aside from Kyle, Holden also has to worry about Claire exposing his and Audra’s secret. Holden told Claire the partial truth about Audra stealing money from a guy, but there’s more to the story. With Claire plotting to expose Audra’s past, it’ll mean trouble for her and Holden.
With Claire betraying his trust, Holden is in for a rude awakening. He’ll no longer view Claire as sweet and honest, but a vindictive person who hurts everyone around her.
