💥FUNERAL FURY! COLE’S SECRET SON CRASHES HIS BURIAL — VICTORIA COLLAPSES, CLARE SCREAMS! 💔 PLUS: MARRIAGE MELTDOWN! TESSA WALKS OUT ON MESSY MARIAH! 😱🔥

Genoa City is on fire with drama this week — and we mean that both literally and emotionally. Just when viewers thought they were gathering to mourn the end of a tortured love story at Cole Howard’s funeral, a bombshell guest stopped everything dead in its tracks…

⚰️ A FUNERAL OR A WARZONE?

Mourners gathered in quiet disbelief to say goodbye to Cole Howard, the brooding, mysterious figure who left a legacy of heartache — and secrets. But just as the priest began the eulogy, the church doors slammed open. Gasps erupted. A lone figure strode down the aisle, stopping beside the casket.

“I’m his son,” the stranger said, voice shaking. “And I deserve to speak.”

Stunned silence fell over the crowd — followed by shrieks, whispers, and one unforgettable moment: Victoria fainted on the spot, and Clare screamed, “No! That’s not possible!”

🤯 THE SECRET SON REVEALED: WHO IS HE?

The young man, introduced only as Liam Ashford, claimed to be the result of a long-ago affair Cole had during his mysterious time away in Europe. DNA results (and behind-the-scenes leaks) confirm he’s telling the truth — but the real question is: Did Cole know?

And if he did, why did he keep this massive secret… from both Victoria and Clare?

A source close to the show teases:

“This changes everything. Liam may not just be a new character… he might be the heir to a fortune, a family feud, and a deadly legacy.”

😱 VICTORIA’S WORLD SHATTERED – “I NEVER KNEW!”

Victoria, already grief-stricken from Cole’s death, now has to process the fact that she wasn’t the only woman in Cole’s life — and maybe not even the most important one. Insiders say she will confront Nikki in the coming episodes, demanding answers about Cole’s past and why no one warned her.

Clare, for her part, is spiraling. Viewers will see her rage at Liam, accusing him of being a liar, a fraud, and a grifter trying to steal Cole’s legacy.

But Liam has something Clare doesn’t: a sealed letter from Cole, addressed to “My Son.”

💔 MARRIAGE IN FLAMES! TESSA WALKS OUT ON MARIAH!

Meanwhile, across town, another beloved couple is falling apart in real time. Mariah and Tessa, long considered one of Genoa City’s most stable romances, are facing a devastating rift.

The pressure of parenthood, careers, and unresolved insecurities has pushed them to the brink. In a shocking moment, Tessa accuses Mariah of being emotionally distant and manipulative, while Mariah counters with: “You haven’t touched me in weeks. We’re roommates with a baby!”

Cue the tears… and the SLAP that no one saw coming.

💔 “I WANT A BREAK… MAYBE FOR GOOD.”

In a scene that left fans gasping, Tessa packed her bags and told Mariah:

“I love you. But I don’t think I can do this anymore.”

Now fans are wondering — is this truly the end of “Teriah”? Or just the beginning of a darker, more complicated chapter?

Spoilers hint that a surprise custody battle may be coming — and it won’t be pretty.

🔮 WHAT’S NEXT: FIGHTS, FURY & FAMILY BOMBS

• Victor Newman is furious about Liam’s arrival and reportedly takes matters into his own hands — with a private investigator.

• Clare uncovers a journal hidden in Cole’s belongings… and what she finds inside could destroy Victoria forever.

• Mariah seeks legal advice, while Tessa turns to an unexpected ex for support — and possibly more?

👀 FANS REACT: “THIS IS THE BEST WEEK OF Y&R IN YEARS!”

Social media has exploded over these storylines. One viewer tweeted:

“That funeral twist? Emmy-worthy. And if Teriah ends, I’m suing!”

Another posted:

“Liam is giving Adam Newman 2.0 vibes — watch him blow up everything!”

🧨 BOTTOM LINE: THE PAST IS NEVER BURIED FOR LONG…

In Genoa City, no secret stays buried — not even at a funeral. With betrayals erupting like landmines and relationships going up in flames, the next episodes promise heartbreak, revenge, and revelations that will shake the Newmans to their core.

Stay tuned. Because in this town, the dead speak… and the living lie.
