Vickie and Billy belong together. No if’s, no and’s, no but’s, no maybe’s, no whatever! This couple belongs together because they’ve long loved each other, still do, and have children, one of whom is Billy’s child (Johnny, Ryan and Holden Hare) that Vickie adopted.
A full-on head fake was thrust at viewers last fall, as Sharon (Sharon Case) and Nick (Joshua Morrow) were ripped apart. After teasing a remarriage in 2014, that led all the way to the altar, Y&R did the same thing again, though with different villains.
October 2018’s Shick split was caused by Phyllis being outed by Sharon, which countered Sharon being exposed by Phyllis four falls earlier. Daytime devotees knew the most recent remarriage attempt was shaky, due to Phick’s surprise reboot in the summer.
Instead of throwing a plot bone at Shick fans, by giving Sharon and Nick at least a handful of month’s worth of marriage, desperate supporters were given no nuptial. That felt wrong and created additional scars.
The Shick review made Villy fans naturally cautious. They weren’t sure if Vickie and Billy were being written back together, or not. Phyllis’ latest information dump, purposely delivered at the Genoa City Athletic Club in front of Vickie, was quickly followed by a third instance of Vane kissing. Yuck!

Why so many uses of the exclamatory within this feature? Well, every GC fan knows that Vickie and Cane have never been and aren’t in love. They don’t even like each other. So to assume that both characters would willingly smooch, sans alcohol, on three different occasions within a matter of weeks is just too much.
If Sharon isn’t going to be with Nick, then Phyllis will have to do. At the very least, she’s been with him before and a logical rebound storyline makes sense. They have a child together, Summer (Hunter King), and Phick can count as each person’s second-greatest actual love, with Sharon being Nick’s and Jack (Peter Bergman) being Phyllis’.
However, after such romantic upheaval it’s now not out of the realm of possibility that Billy will rebound to Phyllis. He’s seen walking in on Vane kissing in what was once Villy’s house. The make-out session takes place on the living room couch, no less. Wow!
