10) Victoria's kidnapping
In 2012, Victoria (Amelia Heinle) was kidnapped in The Young and the Restless by Eddie G. for Billy Abbott’s unpaid gambling debt.
The storyline was crucial and shocking as Victoria is one of the main characters of the daily soap, but due to spoilers, the episode did not have as much effect as it would have had without spoilers.
9) Nick and Phyllis's reunion
Phyllis and Nick’s relationship was always questionable as it began when Nick was already married to Sharon, and he cheated on her with Phyllis.
The news about their recent reunion brought those past controversial moments to the fore, with Sharon’s trauma of finding out her husband’s past betrayal. Several viewers did not appreciate the spoiler about their reunion.
8) Diane's fake death
Another fake death of an important character of The Young and the Restless, Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters), was already known before the release of the episode.
After being confronted by various people, such as Ashley Abbott and Phyllis, among others, Diane fakes her death with Deacon’s help to leave Genoa City for good. Viewers were disappointed to know through a spoiler that Diane was never dead; she had just faked it.
7) Billy's gambling relapse
Another important storyline was Billy Abbott’s (Billy Abbott) gambling relapse in 2021.
However, spoilers revealed before the episode that it was fake. Billy was faking to have lost everything, including Jabot, to take revenge on Adam and Victor. The revelation of such a major plot twist made the actual episode underwhelming.
6) JT's abusive behavior
Spoilers revealed JT’s (Thad Luckinbill) abusive behavior with Victoria that was not welcomed by fans. The spoiler and where the story of JT was headed were not appreciated by fans as they didn’t want to see him as an abuser.
The spoilers revealed that due to his jealousy over Billy and Victoria’s closeness, he will verbally and physically attack Victoria, which scares her, seeing this change in JT’s behavior.
5) Sharon's cancer diagnosis
The details about Sharon’s (Sharon Case) cancer diagnosis had been speculated and revealed before the actual episode aired, which minimized the emotional impact it would have had in 2020 in The Young and the Restless.
In a heartbreaking storyline, Sharon was diagnosed with breast cancer but was initially hiding it from her family. She later shared the tragic update about her health with her family in an emotional episode. However, as several fans had already known about it through spoilers, the episode lost some of its impact.
4) Ashland's true intentions
As Ashland Locke and Victoria begin to come closer, Locke is suggested to have revealed everything to Victoria, from his name being fake to other details, before marrying her.
However, spoilers revealed that Locke might still be lying about his terminal illness to Victoria in the 2021 storyline of The Young and the Restless. Locke’s deception would bring turmoil in Victoria's married life and would have also resulted in an explosive episode, but due to the spoilers, it was not as impactful.
3) Delia's tragic death is revealed early
Another spoiler from The Young and the Restless was about the tragic death of Billy and Chloe’s daughter, Delia.
Spoilers revealed that Delia will be killed in a hit-and-run case, due to which the episode lost some of the emotional impact that it would have had on the viewers. Delia was killed when Adam tried to save her dog, Dash, who came in front of the car but ended up running over Delia.
2) Adam's return from the dead
After being shot with a tranquilizer gun and left in the cabin by Chloe, Adam’s DNA was later discovered after the cabin blew up. He was then presumed dead.
However, in 2019, Adam’s (Mark Grossman) news of returning from the dead reached the viewers before his actual return to the show, ruining the shock and surprise that would have made his return more exciting.
1) Victor's fake death
In the 2019 storyline where Adam wants to take revenge on Victor and Nick, he plans on doubling Victor’s (Eric Braeden) dose, which results in Victor collapsing in front of his family and being pronounced dead.
Fans were stunned by the storyline, but spoilers suggested that Victor was just faking his death to protect his family from Adam, which worked because Adam decided to leave Genoa City after it. The spoiler about Victor faking his death ruined the shocking storyline for several fans.
