The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers for the week of May 12-16, 2025 | Y&R Next Week

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers for the week of May 12-16 reveal that Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) will spin out while Claire Newman (Hayley Erin) and Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) face some awful news. Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) will also plot a bold move, so here’s what Y&R fans can expect.

For starters, the hostility between Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) and Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) could become a bigger problem if Adam goes through with doing Victor Newman’s (Eric Braeden) dirty work.

Victor is adamant about using Newman Media to drag Billy down, so Adam could cause Billy to strike back as a result.

Of course, any move Adam makes against Billy will land him in hot water with Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) – and Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) obviously won’t be happy either!

Sally and Chelsea could end up doing some feuding as well as the Abbott Communications and Newman Media drama heats up.

Next, Kyle will spin out after Victor makes a power play against him.

It’ll leave Kyle in an angry tizzy – and that could be the perfect time for Audra to take her first real step toward Kyle’s takedown.

Victor is demanding to see some signs of progress before he’ll give Audra the funding she needs for Vibrante.

Will Audra prove she’s well on her way to dirtying up Kyle’s image and ultimately breaking up his romance with Claire?

If Audra ever expects to get her new venture off the ground, she’d better do some brainstorming and make something happen!

Victor expects Audra to get the ball rolling on whatever trap she’s setting for Kyle, so she should get more daring and attempt to pull something off.

Of course, Audra will have to be careful since Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic) is already suspicious of her arrangement with Victor.

The longer this partnership goes on, the more likely it becomes that Nate will figure out what Audra’s secret mission is.

Next, Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks) may put Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) on the hot seat.

At this point, Tessa has figured out that Mariah may have done something bad on her business trip, so she may back her wife into a difficult corner.

Will Tessa push Mariah for the truth and prepare for the worst?

It’s looking more and more like Mariah cheated on Tessa while she was away, so we’ll see if she blurts out a full confession sooner or later.

Regardless of what Mariah spills, Daniel Romalotti Jr. (Michael Graziadei) will remain Tessa’s confidant and a strong source of support.

Across town, Cole Howard’s (J. Eddie Peck) test results seem poised to deliver a devastating blow.

Will Cole find out he’s dying – and if he does, will he tell Victoria and Claire his grim diagnosis right away?

Whatever the case, Claire and Victoria should get some horrible updates eventually, so stay tuned for any grim predictions about Cole’s tough road ahead.

The Young and the Restless spoilers say the week of May 12-16 will bring some tense scenes and plenty of emotional moments.
