Adam’s assumed death on The Young and the Restless has left many unanswered questions for fans. One of the biggest is what’s going to happen with his loving wife, Chelsea?

A Wife in Mourning!
Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) has dedicated her life to Adam (Justin Hartley). She did everything she could to keep her family together for years, and has forgiven more than any other woman should.

She passed on many opportunities, both professionally and personally, to go back to the love of her life. Through it all, she had no regrets. Now that he’s dead (or at least that’s what the police say) is there a way for her to find happiness again?

An Old Romance Rekindled?
Many fans have voiced their opinions about what they’d like to see next. For some, it’s a future with her ex-husband Dylan (Steve Burton).

Their previous relationship was full of kindness and warmth. Fans adored their time together and want to see it again. But this time around, without the hindrance of having a massive secret involving her baby.

Keeping the Newman Name?
Not surprisingly, the most popular theory is Chelsea’s next romance will have her keeping her Newman name. Many fans can see a future with Nick and Chelsea as a couple. Their sweet friendship could easily turn into an epic romance. It could even rival the passionate relationship Sharon (Sharon Case) and Adam once had.

But, Will it Last?
If the rumors are true that a new Adam is on his way to Genoa City, what will happen if he shows up after Chelsea has moved on? Will she stay with her new man or will she dump him the second Adam comes back to town?
