When Devon Hamilton asked Abby Newman to marry him on “The Young & The Restless,” it was a

moment of pure joy for Abby. She accepted his proposal without hesitation, filled with happiness and

excitement. However, as the initial euphoria faded, doubts began to surface—a natural reaction given Abby’s tumultuous romantic history.

Abby’s romantic journey has been anything but smooth. Her past relationships have seen their fair share of ups and downs, with marriages and engagements that ended in heartache. This history inevitably influences her current feelings about marrying Devon, despite the deep love she has for him.

Melissa Ordway, who portrays Abby, shared her insights with Soap Opera Digest, highlighting Abby’s internal struggle. “I can definitely relate to Abby with that,” Ordway explained. “You start thinking about things too much and you’re like, ‘Oh my gosh, what am I doing? This is bad. This could end terribly!’ This is her one true love and he’s everything that she’s ever wanted, and it feels so perfect now. They don’t even really argue because they just fit together so perfectly.”

Abby’s fears are rooted in her past failures. She has experienced the breakdown of her marriages to Stitch and Chance, as well as a broken engagement with Arturo. These experiences have left her wary of repeating the same mistakes and hurting Devon, who is not only her fiancé but also her best friend.

“But I think she’s worried that once you put the marriage title on it, it’s going to change everything because she’s been so unsuccessful in that department,” Ordway continued. “She loves Devon so much that she doesn’t want to ruin this and make him collateral damage in her relationship mishaps. She’s sensing a pattern; she’s been married to Stitch and Chance and they didn’t work out, and didn’t work out with Arturo after they got engaged. And now the last thing that Abby would ever want is to hurt Devon because he’s the love of her life and also her best friend.”

In an attempt to calm her fears, Abby confided in her mother, Ashley. During a video call, Ashley reassured Abby that her feelings were normal and encouraged her to trust what she felt in her heart. This conversation gave Abby some confidence, but it was short-lived. A chance encounter with Kyle led to a sarcastic offer to have his attorney prepare divorce papers for her, reinforcing her doubts and fears.

The big question now is whether Abby and Devon will make it down the aisle and, if they do, whether their marriage will endure. Abby’s apprehensions are understandable, given her history, but the love she shares with Devon is genuine and strong. Their relationship has been built on mutual respect and deep affection, qualities that could help them navigate the challenges ahead.

The outcome of their relationship remains uncertain, and fans of “The Young & The Restless” are eagerly watching to see how their story unfolds. Will Abby’s fears prove unfounded, or will her past continue to cast a shadow over her future with Devon? Only time will tell.
