Ready to Date
Victoria (Amelia Heinle) has endured many heartaches over the years. Her most recent heartache was the death of her significant other, Cole (J. Eddie Peck), in July.
The former exes reunited in 2024 when they learned that Claire (Hayley Erin) was their presumed dead daughter Eve. The reunited trio became one of Genoa City’s cutest families. However, their happiness was shattered when Cole became ill. Despite efforts to save him, Cole passed away with Victoria and Claire by his side.
Cole’s death was devastating for Victoria and Claire. Yet, Victoria’s grief has eased thanks to the support of Nate (Sean Dominic). Her former ex has been a great help to Victoria, and it appears they might be rekindling their romance.
However, some Y&R fans on Reddit think it might be too soon. “Seriously, Cole has not even been dead half a year and she’s spending all this time hanging out with Nate,” one viewer wrote.
”It’s called soap opera time. One day is equal to six months to a year lol,” one fan joked, while some fans don’t see anything wrong with Victoria moving on.
”Nate and Victoria are good friends. They have a personal history so it’s natural they would reach out to one another in a time of grief (Nate lost his brother recently too). Not unusual at all,” wrote one supporter.
Vate Round Two
Victoria and Nate, aka Vate, seem destined for a reunion. While it will be nice to see the two give their relationship another shot, it won’t be without trouble
First, there’s Nate’s ex-girlfriend Audra (Zuleyka Silver), who is intent on winning him back. Then there’s Claire, who might not be happy seeing her mom move on so soon after her dad’s death. With Claire still grieving over Cole, her dark side might emerge to break up Victoria and Nate.
Aside from Audra and Claire, there’s also Victoria. Although she seems ready to move on, she might change her mind as her and Nate’s reunion progresses. With the reunited exes getting more serious, Victoria might question if she’s truly over Cole.
