The Young and the Restless Spoilers: Ashley Becomes Dina’s Protector – Health Issue Heals Past Wounds

Ashley (Eileen Davidson) was understandably suspicious of Dina’s (Marla Adams) intentions on ‘The Young and the Restless’. However, the nature of this particular health issue will enable Ashley to become her mother’s protector. Graham’s (Max Shippee) physical actions will spark Abbott family rapprochement.

Dina abandoned her choices in the 1980’s. She did so two decades after free-thinking ideas invaded the minds of many parents. Dina wanted to have a husband and three children, but then walked away from her obligations as so many other lost souls do in a society that fails at attempting to excuse such decisions and then forces them to be weakly addressed through forced funding.

The need to find oneself is actually a self-centered pursuit disguised as enlightenment. Yes, warped ideologies are often packaged as new-age ideals in order to lure the masses away from family structures. And so Dina flew off to France, while John stood by the family they both created.

Ashley, Jack (Peter Bergman) and Traci (Beth Maitland) were naturally crushed by Dina’s actions. She left their father and acted as if her children were objects left behind in the pool house. Ashley’s particular angst was compounded by the revelation that she wasn’t John’s (Jerry Douglas) child. A stunning fact that served to influence Ashley’s later relationships.

However, Dina’s contrition is real and, like any person she deserves a shot at redemption. Thus Jack’s openness to Dina’s quest for forgiveness somewhat softened his maternal sister’s heart. Abby’s (Melissa Ordway) desire to get to know her grandmother then helped Ashley thoughts to further develop. But it was Traci’s initial recognition of Dina’s changed demeanor that caused Ashley to begin questioning her overall perception of their mother.

Seeing Graham lay her hands on Dina at the Genoa City Athletic Club was a game-changer. Past grudges were replaced by protective instincts the moment that scene played out in a fabulously tailored suite.

How about that? Ashley’s love for her mother appears to be stronger than the deep-seeded feelings she’s carried for years.
