Dominic’s Recast Leaves Fans Waiting for Mariah Craziness
Abby (Melissa Ordway) and Devon’s (Bryton James) son, Dominic (Ethan Ray Clark), was recast, making the boy a bit older. The recast news comes as Ian (Ray Wise) works overtime to convince Mariah (Camryn Grimes) to forget about Tessa (Cait Fairbanks) and Aria (Maddie and Millie Ingle) to focus on Dominic, her real family.
Now that Dominic has been recast and is back on-screen more, Y&R fans are bracing for Mariah to kidnap him, as Ian keeps pushing her to do.
“Mariah’s really going to kidnap this kid,” declared a fan on X.
Another fan stated, “Omg Mariah is kidnapping Dom? wtf?? So dumb.”
Over on Reddit, a thread discussing Mariah’s storyline had several fans express their certainty that a Dominic kidnapping was coming, as well as their desire for all the Mariah drama to end.
However, there is no end in sight. In fact, Y&R executive producer and head writer Josh Griffith teased to TV Insider that Devon and Abby are involved in a major mystery that ties in with Mariah’s trauma.
Well, it looks like we know what that is, thanks to Ian pushing Mariah to be with Dominic. Based on Mariah keeping tabs on Abby, Devon, and Dominic, it appears the suspected kidnapping will happen just in time for the February sweeps.
There’s also speculation that the CBS soap is about to rewrite history with Dominic, and it has nothing to do with the fact that his last name is now Winters, not Chancellor, as it was when the little guy was born.
Buckle up, Y&R fans, more crazy drama’s on the way as Mariah puts her next plan of action into motion. We aren’t ready, are you? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
