The Young and the Restless (Y&R) Spoilers: Nikki's and Victor's New Loves Revealed - Couple Split For Good This Time?

“The Young and the Restless” (Y&R) spoilers reveal that Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) and Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) may get new lovers and be finished for good. Is the fourth marriage of The Moustache and his aging stripper wife kaput thanks to her betrayal? Looks like new love is in store for both, but with whom?

For Nikki, the choice is a no-brainer – Y&R spoilers tease that she will look to the man she married twice before – Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman). Are Jack and Nikki on a slow burn to marriage number three? Here’s three reasons Jack and Nikki seem destined to couple up once again.

#1 Nikki needs her sober pal

The Young and the Restless spoilers suggest that Nikki and Jack will continue to get closer while she battles the bottle yet again. Nikki and Jack understand this struggle much more so than either of their current spouses and can be supportive. Plus, Nikki is spiraling so she will need more and more from Jack and that will put them in close contact and remind them of their undeniable chemistry.

#2 Phyllis and Billy are inevitable

We know it’s only a matter of time before Jack’s brother Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) beds Phyllis Abbot (Gina Tognoni) particularly now that Jack has fired Billy from Jabot. With Phyllis bedding Billy, the Jack and Phyllis union will flame out leaving Jack looking for comfort – and he need look no further than Nikki whom he’ll be with constantly anyway.

#3 It would drive Victor crazy

This is a factor for both Nikki and Jack to consider. Nikki is hurt and angry that Victor refuses to let her visit him in prison and getting back with Jack would hurt and infuriate Victor. Jack may also be looking to salt the wound with Victor since Jack ultimately blames Victor’s Marco Annicelli scheme for ruining his marriage with Phyllis.

But how can Victor find love behind bars? It’s not like he’s going to get cozy with Ian Ward (Raw Wise)… However, there is a beautiful woman at the prison – Dr Meredith Gates (Alicia Coppola) – who’s already showing interest in Victor beyond doctor-patient. Here’s three reasons for that romance to spark.

#1 It would remind Nikki that Victor’s irresistible

Nikki may think that Victor has no choices while behind bars – but romancing the beautiful prison doc would show Nikki that Victor has no limits. Plus, Dr Gates is educated, classy and everything Nikki wishes she was but can never be because of her sordid past. Victor cozying up to the prison doc would drive Nikki insane with jealousy and that’s a plus for Victor.

#2 Gates could help facilitate Victor’s early release from prison

Dr Gates could use her position to manipulate the system to help get Victor released early. If Meredith and Victor embark on a romance, no doubt she’ll want her rich boyfriend out of jail and could stop at nothing to make it happen. Victor may be playing tough now, but we all know what he wants is to be out and exacting revenge – and the doc could help make that happen.

#3 It would give Victor a much-needed ally

Right now, Victor feels completely alone, is stewing in resentment while cooking up revenge plans. Romance with Dr Gates would be a welcome distraction, and she could be an ally. Victor will know her affections are sincere since there’s nothing she can gain from him. His wealth and power don’t extend inside the prison, so he needs someone on his side and that could spark romance.
