The Young and the Restless spoilers for Friday, June 19, note some interesting moments in the land of Genoa City as the weekend hits.

Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) pulls a shady move, while Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun) strikes back at someone.

Plus, Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) shares a secret. Learn more about what’s going down during Friday’s show, below!

Key Takeaways

• Phyllis overhears a private conversation and prepares to use the information to her advantage.
• Matt and Cane’s discussion could expose Victor’s hidden agenda.
• Sienna retaliates against Audra as their rivalry intensifies.
• Victoria opens up to Claire about a troubling secret.
• Nikki’s worsening condition may become impossible to keep hidden.

Phyllis Summers’ Sketchy Move

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Friday, June 19, hint that Phyllis will stumble upon some intel.

During the Thursday, June 18 episode, Phyllis overheard Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) and Cane Ashby’s (Billy Flynn) conversation at Crimson.

As fans know, Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) handed down an assignment to Matt, telling him to get closer to Cane so that he could bring him down.

Cane called Matt out on wanting to be friends and outright asked the man what Victor was up to.

Will Matt spill the beans?

Will Cane turn the tables on Victor and entice Matt work for him?

Either way, Phyllis will listen in on the chit-chat so she can make a sly move of her own!

Phyllis finds trouble all the time, and should be minding her own business, but she won’t.

Sienna Bacall Strikes Back

Across town, Sienna will strike back against Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver).

There is no love lost between both of these ladies, so what will Sienna’s plan of attack be?

She may simply stumble upon Audra and lash out at her; then again, maybe she tries to turn Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) against his ex, but badmouth her to him. Only time will tell.

Victoria Newman’s Secret

Lastly, The Young and the Restless spoilers for Friday, June 19 suggest that Victoria confides a secret to Claire Newman (Hayley Erin).

Will she tell her daughter how bad Nikki Newman’s (Melody Thomas Scott) condition is? Vicky swore to her mom she wouldn’t tell Victor about how bad her headaches have gotten – but she never told the woman she wouldn’t tell her daughter!

Then again, could this be about Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) moving out of the Abbott mansion because of Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk)?

Beyond the Gates spoilers for Thursday, June 18, suggest some intense moments in Fairmont Crest. The clock is ticking for Eva Thomas (Ambyr Michelle), as Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) confronts Bill Hamilton (Timon Kyle Durrett).

• Andre supports a distraught Izaiah as concern for Eva grows.
• Dani confronts Bill, risking exposure of their explosive secret.

Time Is Running Out

Beyond the Gates spoilers for Thursday, June 18, suggest that time is running out for Eva. As fans know, she needs a liver transplant ASAP, and neither her parents, Ted Richardson (Keith D. Robinson), nor Leslie Thomas (Trisha Mann-Grant), were matches.

Ted begged Kat during the Wednesday, June 17 episode to get tested, and even Martin Richardson (Brandon Claybon) tried to reason with her, but Kat is digging her heels. Will she come to her senses?

In other news, Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald (Robert Christopher Riley) informs Nicole Dupree (Daphnee Duplaix) of an urgent matter.

Kat Richardson Vents

Speaking of Kat, she’ll vent about the entire situation to Chelsea Hamilton (RhonniRose Mantilla). Kat’s terrified for both Eva and her and feels as if no one is considering her side of things, but Chelsea act as a sounding board.

With that said, everyone is focused on Eva’s life, as it hangs in the balance, so will Kat make the right decision and get tested … especially since Eva’s time is running out?

Can Chelsea help Kat make the right decision? Only time will tell. Elsewhere, Izaiah Hawthorne (Lami) will be in a tough position, as Andre Richardson (Sean Freeman) will help him through it.

Izaiah is losing his mind with worry over Eva, so it’s nice that Andre will be there to support him.

Dani Dupree Confronts

Lastly, Beyond the Gates spoilers for June 18 suggest that Dani will have unfinished business with Bill and confront him. Is this about getting their stories straight, or will this encounter just make things worse?

Could someone overhear their conversation and learn about their one-night stand? Vanessa McBride (Lauren Buglioli) already knows … but could Hayley Hamilton (Marquita Goings) find out?

The Young and the Restless spoilers are in for Thursday, June 18, 2026. In tomorrow’s episode, we can expect Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) to give new orders. 

Meanwhile, Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) continues his mission. Plus, Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) panics over her mother’s health. Keep reading to find out what is coming up in the CBS soap opera.

Key Takeaways

• Victoria becomes increasingly alarmed by Nikki’s worsening health symptoms.
• Nikki’s headaches may signal a more serious medical issue.
• Victor issues new orders and increases the pressure on Matt.
• Matt struggles with carrying out Victor’s mission involving Cane.
• Phyllis gloats about Arabesque while Cane warns her about Victor’s true motives.

Victoria Newman Panics

Let’s begin with Victoria, who will continue to worry about Nikki Newman’s (Melody Thomas Scott) health. Nikki has been dealing with sudden and really bad headaches.

The woman wants to believe it’s from her MS, but Victoria is concerned it could be something else.

It sounds like Nikki will have another headache or perhaps another troubling symptom. 

Victoria is really going to push her mother to make a doctor’s appointment now rather than later.

Matt Clark’s Mission

Over with Matt, he will continue on his mission for Victor. Victor has ordered Matt to get closer to Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn).

As time goes on, Matt will get more wary of Victor’s orders. While at one time, Matt would have no problem doing dirty work, he’s clearly a different man now. 

When Matt tries to wiggle out of the mission, Victor doubles down on his orders. Not only does Victor double down, but issues another set of instructions for Matt. 

So it sounds like Matt is going to have to get dirty, or risk Victor’s punishment.

Phyllis Summers Gloats

The Young and the Restless spoilers for Thursday, June 18 reveal that Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) will cross paths with Cane. 

Phyllis will probably brag about her new victory, Arabesque. 

That was Cane’s company at one time and knows the business is worth nothing.

 However, Phyllis might still act like this is a win. Cane could warn her that Victor doesn’t give anyone anything for free.

The redhead probably insists she’s going to take the company to new heights.

What Else to Expect

As for what else to expect in tomorrow’s episode, we could see Diane Jenkins Abbott (Susan Walters) continue her plan. 

Diane knows that if she leaves that house, then she might never get back to Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman). So far, it seems like the doctor is suspicious. 

With no way out, Diane is going to have to pull the con of a lifetime. 

By the time she escapes, though, could Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) have already made inroads with Jack?

Deacon is grateful that Sheila walks away. Nothing would have stopped Deacon’s feelings for Taylor. The door slowly creaks open. Taylor screams and jumps off the couch. Deacon jumps up, asking what’s wrong.

Days of Our Lives spoilers are in for Thursday, June 18, 2026.  In tomorrow’s episode, we can expect a romantic escape to be interrupted. 

Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (Richard Wharton) shares good news about Lexie Carver’s (Nikki Crawford) condition. Plus, Abe Carver (James Reynolds) once again feels divided. Keep reading to find out what is coming up in the Peacock soap opera.

• Lani and Theo rally around Chanel as she prepares for a major surgery.
• Abe faces an emotional dilemma during Salem’s Juneteenth celebration.
• Rolf delivers encouraging news regarding Lexie’s condition.
• Kristen issues a warning that could have major consequences for Johnny.

Romantic Escape Interrupted

Let’s start off with Tate Black (Leo Howard) and Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis). The two are at the Horton cabin with Ari Horton (Vico Escorcia) and Aaron Greene (Louis Tomeo). It’s supposed to be a weekend where they forget about all their problems. 

However, Holly and Tate can’t seem to stop making out. When they finally do get some privacy, it is rudely interrupted.

Chanel Dupree DiMera’s Support

Back in Salem, Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) and Chanel Dupree DiMera (Raven Bowens) are getting ready for the port surgery. 

Chanel has refused the resurrection drug and is confident the current treatment is the right move. 

In the meantime, Lani Price Grant (Sal Stowers) and Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews) will rally around Chanel.

Juneteenth Awkwardness

Days of Our Lives spoilers for Thursday, June 18 reveal that it will be Juneteenth in Salem.

 There will be a big event as there is every year. As the mayor, Paulina Price (Jackee Harry) will attend the event. 

However, things get awkward for Abe when he and Lexie run into Paulina on that special day.

As fans know, that day also marks Abe and Paulina’s wedding anniversary.

I wonder if Lexie could see the spark between Abe and Paulina on that special day. 

Maybe she will realize that Paulina isn’t the evil husband-stealer she assumed. 

Paulina has a lot of faults, but she also has a loving heart. 

Dr. Wilhelm Rolf’s Good News

Over with Rolf, he will deliver some positive news to EJ about Lexie. 

While the lab rats died and Lexie has had some weird symptoms, there will be good news.

Perhaps Rolf will discover that Lexie might be okay after all? I still think that the overdose deaths in Salem are connected to this miracle drug. 

With Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) planning on getting closer to EJ, things could spiral out of control very quickly.

Kristen DiMera’s Warning

As for Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk), she will deliver a warning to Johnny. However, with Kristen also being the one who sent Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) to kill Johnny, just wait until the truth comes out!

Plus, at General Hospital, Ethan Lovett (Nathan Dean) gave a DNA sample and swapped it with the one he’d stolen from the PCPD evidence room.

Key Takeaways

• Cullum questions Lulu about Rocco before later raiding Carly’s house in search of Valentin.
• Valentin shares emotional farewells with Carly and Charlotte before leaving for Geneva.
• Willow is blindsided when Felicia secures a communication device for Drew.
• Ethan secretly swaps his DNA sample with evidence stolen from the PCPD.
• Dante challenges Chase’s actions while Brook Lynn doubles down on exposing Willow.

Cullum Asked Lulu Questions

Cullum had invited Lulu to Wyndemere, but his irritation grew when she arrived with Ethan, whom she had brought along for “protection.”

The WSB director then began to question Lulu about Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr), mentioning that Rocco wanted to express his gratitude for the kindness he had shown while volunteering during Cullum’s hospital stay.

Realizing that Cullum was trying to fish for information, Ethan and Lulu fabricated a story, saying that Rocco was away visiting family for the summer.

As Lulu said her goodbyes, Cullum made a point to grip her hand a bit too firmly, leaving her feeling quite shaken.

Valentin And Carly Relished Their Closeness

As Valentin and Carly reveled in the warmth of their intimacy, they both realized that their relationship had unfolded in unexpected ways.

He comforted her by saying he had a “better than even” chance of making it through once he arrived at WSB headquarters,.

And if everything went according to plan, the WSB would thwart Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) and Cullum, ensuring the safe return of Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy).

Appreciative of the danger he was facing to protect her daughter, Carly made a promise that he would have the opportunity to bid farewell to his own.

Carly Brought Charlotte To Say Goodbye To Her Father

Afterward, Carly made her way to the house with Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke).

The moment was charged with emotion as father and daughter exchanged a heartfelt and tearful goodbye.

Valentin took the time to explain to Charlotte that once he surrendered himself at the WSB headquarters, it was highly probable that he would be sent back to Steinmauer.

With a heavy heart, he then departed to begin his journey to Geneva, Switzerland, where he was scheduled to meet with the elusive international head of the WSB, known only by the mysterious moniker ‘Z’.

Cullum Raided Carly’s House

Later on, Cullum burst into Carly’s kitchen, accompanied by two other agents from the WSB, without even knocking!

He declared to both Carly and Charlotte that he possessed a search warrant to locate Valentin.

However, after a thorough search, they ultimately departed without discovering any sign of the fugitive.

Once they found themselves alone again, Charlotte turned to Carly and inquired if the search for her father had come to an end.

Carly let out a heavy sigh and replied that she believed they were far from reaching a conclusion.

Danny And Scout Encountered Willow And Drew At The Hospital

Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn) took Scout Cain (Reagan Park) to G.H. after she twisted her ankle while trying to replicate a prank she had seen him do.

There, Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos) met up with her niece and nephew.

As Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst) treated Scout’s injury, Willow and Drew Cain (Katelyn MacMullen, Cameron Mathison) arrived for Drew’s neurology appointment.

Molly shared her concerns with Elizabeth, fearing that Scout’s injury might reignite Drew’s animosity towards Danny; and lead Willow to enforce the restraining order against him, which had never been formally lifted.

Scout expressed her regret for potentially causing trouble for Danny with her father and the siblings reminisced about how much they disliked being apart.

Willow Was Blindsided

Willow felt panic when Felicia Scorpio (Kristina Wagner) told her she had obtained devices to help Drew communicate, even though she pretended to appreciate Felicia’s help.

When Drew returned from his doctor’s appointment, Felicia shared the news about the special equipment. Drew blinked once to show he was glad he could soon communicate better, then looked at Willow intently.

While Drew was at physical therapy, Willow met Scout, Danny, and Molly.

Scout confessed to Willow that she was worried she had gotten Danny in trouble with her dad.

Willow reassured her stepdaughter that the most important thing was Scout’s happiness and being around those who loved her, including Danny, her grandmother, and her aunts.

Ethan Swapped DNA Samples

Ethan experienced a heartfelt reunion with Elizabeth when he arrived at the hospital to undergo his DNA test.

She kindly reassured him that she valued his privacy and did not require any justification for his need to provide a DNA sample.

After gently taking a swab from his cheek, she excused herself to attend to another patient, leaving the sample behind on the counter.

Seizing the opportunity, Ethan quickly pocketed his own DNA sample and cleverly replaced it with the one he had stealthily taken from the PCPD evidence room.

Dante Tried To Reason With Chase While Tracy Confronted Brook Lynn

Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) found Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) at the boathouse and tried to reason with him as family, not as an officer.

He pointed out that Chase had overreacted by arresting Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot), which hurt Brook Lynn Quartermaine Chase (Amanda Setton).

Meanwhile, Tracy confronted Brook Lynn in the kitchen, expressing her concern that Brook Lynn was losing herself to fit Chase’s idea of a perfect wife.

When Brook Lynn felt offended by Tracy’s lack of trust, Tracy apologized for meddling in her marriage.

This conversation strengthened Brook Lynn’s resolve to show Chase Willow’s true nature.

After Chase And Dante Were Done, Lulu Talked To Dante

Back at the main house, Chase told his wife that Dante helped him realize his arrest of Tracy was unnecessary.

He expressed gratitude that Willow had dropped the charges and was aiding them in building their dream family, while Brook Lynn feigned happiness for Willow’s support.

However, as they hugged, she revealed her determination to protect their family.

Later, at the boathouse, Lulu informed Dante that Cullum had invited her to Wyndemere to ask about Rocco.

Dante concluded that Cullum must know about Rocco and Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) being together but had no leads on their whereabouts.

He appreciated Lulu for being honest about her visit to Wyndemere, honoring their agreement to work together to find their son.

General Hospital spoilers for Thursday, June 18 are in! Fans can expect to see Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) set a trap, while Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) makes a horrific discovery.

Plus, newbie Joe Fitzpatrick (Jonathan Bennett) has some suspicions about an insider, and Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) objects to something.

Find out all the juicy details of Thursday’s episode below.

Key Takeaways

• Sidwell sets a dangerous trap for one of his many enemies.
• Rocco discovers Britt unconscious and fears the worst.
• Joe tells Dante he believes Sidwell has an insider helping him.
• Sonny unveils a bold new strategy that leaves Ric uneasy.
• Charlotte turns to Danny for support as Valentin’s fate weighs heavily on her.

Jenz Sidwell Sets A Trap

General Hospital spoilers for Thursday, June 18 imply that Sidwell will set an unexpected trap for a foe. Who will his target be … he has quite a few enemies!

Speaking of a possible candidate for Sidwell’s wrath, Laura Collins (Genie Francis) will present an offer, so it’ll be interesting to see if the person she proposes this to accepts or not

In related news, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) will concoct a plan; however, it seems as if Ric will be hesitant to go along with this new strategy.

During the promo for June 18, Ric tells Sonny, “He’s out there … running around loose,” to which the mob boss replies, “Who says this is a problem?”

Are they talking about Sidwell or someone else? What’s Sonny’s new plan? Fans will have to tune in to find out.

Rocco Falconeri’s Horrific Discovery

Meanwhile, fans will finally get an update on how Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) and Rocco are doing out on the run.

Rocco is set to find Britt in the cabin they are staying at, unconscious, which will terrify him, so who will he run to for help?

During the General Hospital preview for tomorrow’s show, everything is Zen at that point when Britt gives Rocco a tablet and says, “The peace of mind this gives you outweighs the risk.”

It looks like Rocco will get some technology so he can, at the very least, see how friends and family are doing in Port Charles, online.

Joe Fitzpatrick Is Suspicious

Back at the PCPD, General Hospital spoilers reveal that Joe will inform Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) that he feels as if Sidwell has someone on the “inside”.

Joe’s not wrong, as Cassius Faison aka Fake Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) is on his bankroll, and the real reason Sidwell escaped from police custody.

Speaking of Cassius, he’ll be in full “Nathan” mode when he meets up with Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros).

During a preview clip for the June 18 show, “Nathan” expresses concern to Nina that he may be “setting James [West – Gary James Fuller] up to feel the same way.”

Is Cassius really concerned he may be projecting daddy issues onto James, considering he’s not really the child’s dad?

What Else To Expect

Back to Dante, General Hospital spoilers for Thursday’s show say that he’ll confide in Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst), so fans should expect more close moments between these two.

Lastly, viewers will see Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn) and Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) bond at the Quartermaine boathouse.

During the promo, Charlotte has a box in her hand on the deck, as Danny runs by and asks what she’s doing.

Charlotte will likely confide to Danny about Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) turning himself in to the WSB, so it’s a good thing she has a friend to lean on.

General Hospital spoilers and updates tease time ran out for Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy), and in a surprising twist, Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) made an unexpected decision.

He is surrendering to the WSB, just as Jack Brennan (Chris L. McKenna) insisted; it appears to be a loss, but we suspect it’s a strategic move.

This May Be A Well-Played Move, But Has The Potential To Backfire!

Here’s why this act of surrender could be the most cunning tactic in his repertoire, yet it also has the potential to backfire spectacularly.

Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) was in a state of panic, and it’s easy to understand why.

Josslyn’s ring was found in the possession of a WSB housekeeper, indicating that her daughter is being held at Wyndemere, with every agent on Spoon Island standing between Carly and her child.

She was ready to charge into the stronghold.

She intended to enlist Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) for a diversion and was prepared to set the place ablaze if necessary.

Valentin Talked Her Down From The Ledge, And Made A Strategic Choice

Valentin talked her down from the ledge, as that is what he does; he argued that rushing in without a plan would only result in Josslyn being moved or killed.

Then Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) arrived with the crucial information: Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) has also been taken, forced to complete the dangerous cold fusion project that Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) left behind.

The villains found their new scientist-the chance to act quickly disappeared; so, Valentin took action.

With no time left and no safe choices, he declared he would do exactly what Jack Brennan requested and turn himself in to the WSB, flying to Geneva to meet the elusive WSB leader known only as ‘Z’.

It would seem that Carly’s last ally just chose to walk into danger; OMG, what?

Not To Worry, And Here Is Why

Here’s why we’re not worried, and honestly, why we feel a bit excited.

Valentin doesn’t lose; he pretends to lose, allows his enemies to celebrate, and then sets off the trap he laid three moves earlier.

Just days before this, he told his daughter Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) something that changes how we view this situation: if his new plan succeeded, he wouldn’t be a fugitive anymore.

That’s not the talk of a man who is giving up, that’s the talk of a man with a strategy that needs him on the inside.

Consider Where Josslyn Currently Is

Consider Josslyn’s current situation; she is confined at Wyndemere, encircled by the WSB, while those who could rescue her are left outside, unable to reach her.

Valentin, a wanted man, is trying to evade Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) and every agent on the island, making it impossible for him to get to her.

However, a Cassadine in WSB custody, especially the son of a former WSB director, presents a different scenario.

If he voluntarily surrenders and begins to cooperate, he gains access.

He secures proximity; he earns a place at the table where crucial decisions regarding Spoon Island are being made-with the head honcho of the whole shebang!

Valentin Is The Infiltrator Who Goes Over Cullum’s Head

By surrendering, he changes the game entirely-Valentin exchanges his freedom for the one thing that truly matters at this moment: a pathway into the very system that is holding Josslyn captive.

He is not the captive in this scenario; he is the infiltrator, and the WSB is poised to roll out the red carpet, leading him directly to the core of the operation.

This bold, selfless strategy is a reminder of why he is considered the most formidable chess player in Port Charles.

When he was in WSB spy school years ago, as Ivan Theodore, he was the most brilliant strategist the WSB had ever had!

However, things could go backwards, and Valentin is well aware of that!

Valentin Is Skirting The Edge Of A Tall, Tall Cliff

But let’s walk to the edge and look down, because this plan has a cliff; it assumes the WSB follows rules, but the WSB is currently corrupt.

Ross Cullum is a double agent, and the agency holding Josslyn is the same one Valentin is about to surrender to.

What if he isn’t infiltrating the lion’s den, what if he’s just locking himself in a cage?

Now, imagine it going wrong; Valentin turns himself in, and instead of leverage, he becomes a third hostage-three bargaining chips for one, leaving Carly without her strategist and Josslyn still trapped!

Cullum sees an easy target to eliminate in a hidden basement; Valentin warned Carly the odds of him coming out free were 1000 to 1!

Here’s The Most Troubling Part

This is the part that troubles us the most; Valentin built his reputation on always being one step ahead.

However, every chess master eventually faces a board they misinterpret, and now he is making this move while exhausted, trapped, and emotionally affected by a child’s life at stake.

If he has even slightly overestimated his own brilliance, he risks losing more than just his freedom.

He could lose Josslyn, betray Carly’s trust, and give the most dangerous people in Port Charles exactly what they need to complete a doomsday device.

Yet, there’s a chance Valentin could reach Geneva; if Cullum and his henchmen raid Carly’s house while Charlotte is there to say goodbye, Carly and Charlotte might create a distraction, allowing Valentin to escape!

The couple was just talking about how free they feel. However, with Sheila back, she will make her true motives known. This doesn’t sound good.

The only question is what kind of scheme has Sheila come up with and who is her mysterious roommate?

Taylor Hayes Rattled

If Sheila gives them a hint that she’s up to no good, then Tyalor and Deacon will be rattled. They might not be able to prove anything and Sheila might be careful with her words.

Sheila has a way of threatening people without saying a word, though! 

Melissa Dylan’s New Boss

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for Thursday, June 18 reveal that Dylan will have a new boss at Forrester Creations.

We know that Steffy Forrester Finnegan (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) told Dylan that Daphne Rose Walton (Murielle Hilaire) needed an assistant.

While Daphne and Dylan were chatting about it, I get the feeling that The Nose isn’t going to be the lady’s new boss.

RJ Forrester’s Slick Move

Right now, RJ Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) seems to be into Dylan. 

That was quite a quick turn from RJ’s obsession with Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace).

In any case, what if RJ decides he will interfere in Dylan’s career?

Maybe instead of Dylan’s new boss being Daphne, perhaps it will be RJ. 

RJ might reason that way they can spend all their time together. However, Dylan wants to work.

So, I’m not sure if she will agree with this new arrangement.

Dylan could worry what will happen if their dynamic suddenly goes south. 

There is also how much longer Dylan is going to keep RJ a secret. Dylan was afraid of what Electra would think, but she should be more concerned about what Steffy would think.

You better believe that he’s going to make it there no matter what it takes. Clearly, we are talking about Prince Harry as there’s heavy speculation suggesting that he’s going to attend the World Cup finals in New Jersey no matter what, and especially if England ends up playing.

Nothing Is Going To Stop Prince Harry From Attending This Event

It was previously reported by Radar Online that David Beckham was basically gatekeeping the Duke of Sussex from the World Cup as he still can’t get over the nasty feud that he had with him and Meghan Markle from a few years back.

Just to recall, Meghan accused Victoria Beckham of selling stories about her to the media and of course, David was none too pleased about that kind of attack on his wife.

And because of it, he’s made sure that Prince Harry is anything but officially banned from the World Cup games in the U.S. this year.

That might be one of the reasons why Harry opted to watch the New York Knicks take on the San Antonio Spurs for Game 5 of the NBA finals instead.

And while there’s no doubt that Prince Harry has to feel quite annoyed about all of this, there’s a good chance that if England does go to the final, he’s not going to let someone like David Beckham stop him from going to the game.

What’s Next For The Duke of Sussex?

Not only that, but it was also suggested that Harry’s estranged brother Prince William is also looking to attend the finals as well.

Sure, it might be awkward with William in the stadium, but there’s a good chance that the future king of England is definitely going to keep his distance away from his brother, too.

That said, so far Prince Harry himself has not made any comments about the matter but only time will tell if his dream of seeing England in the World Cup finals comes true. It’s only a matter of time before it happens, right?
