‘The Young and the Restless’ Spoilers: Shocking Abbott Addition – Could Natalie Be Jack’s Long-Lost Daughter?

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers reveal that Jack’s (Peter Bergman) family tree could get a bit more complicated. There’s been some buzz about the idea of Jack having a long-lost daughter. We don’t have confirmation on this Abbott addition, but anything is possible in Genoa City.

Forgotten family members come out of the woodwork all the time.

Word has it this daughter is a product of Jack’s romance with Linsey Wells (Lauren Koslow) in the ‘80s. Of course, buzz always leads Y&R viewers to begin speculating. If all of this is true, Jack may not have to look far for his missing daughter. She may already be in town.

Could Natalie (Mara McCaffray) be the long-lost daughter in question? It would be an interesting twist. Natalie could use a tie to one of the core Young and the Restless families. They have a perfect background to work with.

Natalie is supposedly an orphan, so we don’t know exactly where she came from or who she belongs to. Natalie could be Jack’s if the writers decided to go in that direction. It’s not like they’d have to rewrite Natalie’s whole backstory to make it fit.

They might need to fudge the age slightly, but that’s no biggie in the world of SORASing.

Plus, Natalie has been very involved with the Abbott family since she first showed up. She worked closely with Phyllis (Gina Tognoni) and Billy (Jason Thompson) on Passkey. They’ve gotten to know her somewhat, which might be neat if Natalie suddenly realizes she was working with her stepmom and uncle.

The Young and the Restless has been drastically reducing the airtime of many of its more youthful stars lately. They’re taking out the young and leaving the restless! For example, Noah (Robert Adamson) and Marisa (Sofia Pernas) were reportedly dropped down to recurring because there were just no storylines for them.

If Natalie is going to stick around, they’ll probably need to come up with something juicy for her. Without a hot plot, Natalie could be hitting the road. That’s why it might be a good plan to drop the Abbott daughter bombshell.

It would provide a solid link to Genoa City and give Natalie something to do besides make out with Kevin (Greg Rikaart).

It’s not clear how this startling development would take shape. Would a recast Linsey Wells deliver the news? Would there be an anonymous letter? Could Natalie secretly have known all along? There are definitely some decent options here.

Kevin might even be the one to figure it out through a little research. It could create some entertaining scenarios for Y&R.

Jack is going to have lot on his plate if this turns out to be true. He’s already trying to cope with the knowledge of what Neil (Kristoff St. John) did. Jack is providing a shoulder for Hilary (Mishael Morgan) to cry on as well.

The reveal of Billy and Phyllis’ affair is also looming. That’s sure to shake things up.

If Jack learns he has a long-lost daughter, he might have to add heart attack to the list! Stay tuned for updates on Jack’s next potential shocker. Chime in on the possibility in the comments below and don’t forget to check CDL often for the latest Young and the Restless spoilers, updates and news.
