The Young and the Restless (YR) Spoilers: Victor Smeared – Anonymous Attacker Winning

Victor (Eric Braeden) is suffering on ‘The Young and the Restless’. His now-revealed health problems have been linked to a cascading business crush. But who is causing mayhem and what is this person’s motivation?

Whoever the anonymous leaker is hasn’t yet been determined Y&R has skillfully withheld information from the audience in order to further an intriguing storyline. J.T. Hellstrom (Thad Luckinbill), with the last name added per Victor’s decree, would be the most likely person to be attacking Newman Enterprises except for one cogent point, he’s dead.

Unless shocking proof of his continued existence is presented, or an evil twin is confirmed as existing and therefore is the gaslighter, someone else should be presumed as being behind the leak that has taken place.

How would Victor’s confidential health records have been secured? Is there someone at Genoa City Memorial Hospital who has it in for the ‘Moustache’?

Okay, well there are likely various employees who may have been somehow wronged by Victor. Considering none of them are current characters on the show unless ‘Stitch’ (Sean Carrigan) is back and has an unknown grudge, let’s move on to someone else.

Various people could be humiliating Victor, including: Nick (Joshua Morrow), Jack (Peter Bergman), Kyle (Michael Mealor), Kevin (Greg Rikaart, though he’s on ‘Days of our Lives’, but is still shown on Y&R’s main cast list page because he’s likely still a recurring character),

Chloe (Elizabeth Hendrickson, though she’s on ‘General Hospital’), Adam (most recently played by Justin Hartley), if this character is alive, Gloria (Judith Chapman) is always an option as well, the aforementioned J.T., Mackenzie (Kelly Kruger) could be seeking revenge while cloaking her rage, assuming she’s somehow learned of J.T.’s killing, Reed (Tristan Lake Leabu), or another character who could be returning.

Until the suspect is caught, as this person will invariably be, Newman Enterprises is in trouble. Some companies have severed ties with the conglomerate purely based upon the public smear. So, for now, the anonymous attacker is winning.
