The Young and the Restless: Audra Uses Pregnancy to Save Nate Relationship, Real Baby or Desperate Lie?

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers hint that Audra Charles’ (Zuleyka Silver) pregnancy could save her relationship with Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic). If Audra indeed announces pregnancy news at some point, will there be a real baby involved or could this be another desperate lie?

Nate is already suspicious of Audra’s true reasons for cutting ties with Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) and losing the Vibrante funding she was previously so thrilled about.

Audra’s been trying to play it like it was her decision when it was Victor who gave her the boot.

In Y&R’s August 18 episode, Audra will frustrate Nate when she refuses to tell him the whole story.

It’ll be obvious to Nate that he doesn’t have all the facts, but Audra will get defensive and lash out at him over his incessant questions.

However, Claire Newman (Hayley Erin) will eventually seek Nate out later and prepare to hit him with some curveballs.

Nate should get updates on Audra working for Victor to ruin Claire and Kyle Abbott’s (Michael Mealor) future together.

Audra wasn’t successful in pulling off a breakup, so that’s the real reason her funding was pulled.

It looks like Claire will tell Nate about that and about Audra’s decision to plant a kiss on him in public.

Audra is a manipulative little menace, so Claire may make that crystal clear to Nate.

Nevertheless, Nate will want to hear the truth from Audra herself, so she’ll be backed into a corner toward the end of August 18-22.

Audra may come clean and try to fix this, but Nate’s going to be livid over her actions and all the deception that followed.

This could be enough to officially break up Audra and Nate’s relationship, so how might Audra try to salvage it?

Could Audra eventually make a pregnancy announcement and leave fans guessing about whether it’s even real?

It’s possible Audra got pregnant right before she left for Nice – at least that might be what she’ll claim.

Then again, Audra and Nate might’ve had a sizzling reunion once she came home to distract him from his Damian Kane (Jermaine Rivers) grief.

In that case, Audra’s pregnancy confession could come later.

Regardless, it wouldn’t be the first time a couple tried to make it work for the sake of a baby.

Audra might use this as her ticket to convincing Nate to try again, but there’s a chance it could all be bogus.

We wouldn’t put it past Audra to use a faux pregnancy as a last-ditch effort to keep Nate as her man.

Audra might blurt it out and just have to figure out the rest later if there’s not really a baby after all!

Whatever the case, The Young and the Restless spoilers say there’s no line Audra won’t cross, so stay tuned for any shocker she might deliver.
