Y&R spoilers keep teasing us that Ashland Locke isn’t who he claims to be. Crack reporter Billy Abbott can’t find a birth certificate for him or death certificates for his allegedly deceased parents.
Also, Ashland (Richard Burgi) once had a relationship with an older woman and may have used her money to buy his first media company. Which is certainly worse than anything Billy (Jason Thompson) has ever done. But what if the secret that Ashland is keeping is actually right under Billy’s nose?
What if Ashland and the woman whose name we just learned – Camilla Rhodes – had a child? Yes, Billy said she was old. But the kind of guy Billy is, old to him could be any woman over the age of 35. And if Ashland was supposed to be just out of college, a woman in her 40s would be almost twice his age. And thus inspire Billy’s disgust. So what if Ashland and this not quite Ashland woman had a child together?
And what if that child is…Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks)? After all, if Genoa City has taught us anything, it’s not just poor women who can’t afford to take care of their children who give their babies up for adoption. Rich women do it all the time! There’s Kay Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper), who gave up her illegitimate son so her husband wouldn’t know she cheated on him. And Naya Ames Benedict (Ptosha Storey), who couldn’t stand up to her controlling daddy.
Wasn’t this mysterious Camilla married? Like Kay, she could have wanted to hide the result of her affair with a younger man from her husband. Ashland could have blackmailed her over it for that start-up seed money. But the deal was he’d change his name, so no one would be able to connect the two of them – or track their child. Tessa could be an heiress! Think this wild speculation could come true? Let us know in the comments section below.
