The Young and the Restless Spoilers Update: Week of July 12 – Goodbye Chelsea – Phyllis Targets Tara – Mariah Investigation

The Young and the Restless Spoilers Update: Week of July 12 – Goodbye Chelsea – Phyllis Targets Tara - Mariah Investigation

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers update for week of July 12-16 teases that the investigation into Mariah Copeland’s (Camryn Grimes) disappearance will heat up – and fans will have to say goodbye to Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) for now. Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) will also target Tara Locke (Elizabeth Leiner), but she’ll do it with a smile and perhaps a backhanded compliment!

For starters, there’ll still be no sign of Mariah as fears turn to tension at the Chancellor mansion.

Abby Newman-Abbott-Chancellor (Melissa Ordway) and Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) will end up arguing about the best way to handle the crisis, but let’s hope they call Rey Rosales (Jordi Vilasuso) and get the GCPD in on this soon.

It’s obvious something isn’t right here, so Mariah’s loved ones will be wasting precious time if they don’t report her missing as soon as possible.

As for where Mariah is, Ben “Stitch” Rayburn (Sean Carrigan) might know the answer. Stitch has shown signs of instability, so he could be holding Mariah hostage based on the timing and his suspicious behavior.

Since Mariah is pregnant, that certainly raises the stakes! Speaking of raising the stakes, that’ll happen in Ashland Locke’s (Richard Burgi) storyline as well.

Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) will inadvertently wind up with a video that makes Ashland look sick and angry, but it appears it’ll be Tara who leaks the clip online for all to see.

Sally will deal with a sense of betrayal in the week ahead, so she may lash out at Tara for tricking her into thinking the video was gone. Sally certainly won’t want this blowing back on her somehow.

As for Phyllis, she’ll make it back from Milan and decide she’ll pretend to be nice. Phyllis will want to lower Tara’s guard, so she’ll think she should turn on the charm and pull her closer through flattery.

That’ll put Phyllis in the prime position to help Billy, who’s got some trust issues when it comes to Tara.

While Billy and Phyllis become scheming partners against Tara, Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) will get what her heart desires.

It’s time for Melissa Claire Egan’s maternity leave, so Chelsea will be released from her psychiatric facility and will leave to take care of Anita Lawson (Catherine Bach) out of state.

Connor Newman (Judah Mackey) will go with Chelsea, but this won’t be the last we see of Egan since Chelsea will appear on some video calls along the way.

Other Y&R spoilers say Ashland will try to figure out the best way to confirm his illness to the public.

Regardless of what that statement looks like, Ashland will keep bonding with Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) and will ultimately announce the merger of their companies.

Billy isn’t going to like it when his own offer’s rejected, but he’ll mostly be concerned about Victoria getting in over her head in more ways than one. As other Y&R news emerges, we’ll pass along updates.

The Young and the Restless spoilers say Victoria could indeed battle some regrets down the road, so stay tuned. Be sure to stick with CDL for lots of other exciting Young and the Restless spoilers, updates and news!
