Sad News Y&R Spoilers Jack and Diane hold a meeting – announce Kyle is not their biological son

The Young and the Restless spoilers shock: Kyle Abbott had always believed his future was carved in stone as the heir to Jabot, the legendary Abbott family business. He thought his destiny was to carry the family legacy just as his father Jack and countless generations before him had done. But everything was falling apart. Jabot was on the verge of collapse, and instead of mourning the family empire, Kyle felt a strange sense of satisfaction watching it crumble. It was as if something deep within him relished the destruction of the very company his parents had worked so hard to build.

Jack and Diane could hardly believe their son’s reaction. They had fought so hard to give Kyle the best life, to raise him as their own, to build a future for him at Jabot, and yet here he was, gleeful at the prospect of its demise. It was the last straw. For years, they had kept a secret—a secret that now more than ever had to be told.

Jack and Diane had always known Kyle wasn’t their biological son, but they had buried that truth deep, wanting to raise him as an Abbott regardless of blood ties. But Kyle’s behavior left them no choice. It was time to bring him down to earth, and the only way to do that was to reveal the truth.

Jack and Diane decided to convene a family meeting—an emergency one. They gathered the board of Jabot, extended family members, and even a few key members of the press. It was a spectacle, and Kyle had no idea what was coming. As he strode into the boardroom, his usual self-assured swagger on full display, he saw the grim faces of his parents and a tension in the room that sent a chill down his spine.

“Thank you all for coming,” Jack began, his voice uncharacteristically grave. He glanced at Diane, who gave a slight nod, signaling that she was ready for what they were about to do. Jack inhaled deeply before continuing, “There’s something that Diane and I have kept hidden for a long time, something that affects the very future of our family and our company. And it’s time the truth comes out.”

Kyle furrowed his brow, confused by his father’s ominous tone. He had expected this meeting to be about the company’s financial crisis or a new strategy to save Jabot, but there was something in Jack’s eyes—something he had never seen before—a combination of sorrow and resolve that made Kyle uneasy.

“Kyle,” Jack said, his voice softer now, but no less serious, “you are not our biological son.”

A stunned silence fell over the room. Kyle’s heart pounded in his chest. For a moment, he was sure he had misheard.

“What?” he whispered, his voice hoarse as the weight of Jack’s words began to sink in.

Diane stepped forward, her eyes filled with tears. “Kyle, we love you. We’ve always loved you. But the truth is, you were adopted. Our biological son… he disappeared when he was just a baby. We never found him.”

Kyle staggered back as if the floor beneath him had suddenly shifted. “This… this can’t be happening,” he muttered, his voice trembling. The people in the room stared at him, their expressions a mixture of shock and pity. But none of that mattered to Kyle. What mattered was that his entire identity had just been shattered.

“You’ve always believed that Jabot was your birthright,” Jack continued, his voice growing firmer. “But the truth is, it was never yours to inherit. We raised you as an Abbott because we wanted you to be part of this family, regardless of blood. But after your recent behavior, your disregard for the company, for this family, we realized we couldn’t keep this from you any longer.”

Diane wiped away a tear, her voice shaky as she added, “You’ve always thought you were entitled to the Abbott name, to everything that comes with it. But it’s time for you to understand that being part of this family means more than just having a name. It means responsibility, respect, and loyalty. And you’ve shown none of that.”

Kyle stood frozen, his mind racing. Adopted? Not an Abbott? He could barely comprehend what was happening. Everything he had ever believed about himself, his family, his future—everything was a lie.

Jack’s voice cut through his thoughts. “As of today, Kyle, you are no longer recognized as an Abbott. You will not inherit Jabot, and you will no longer carry the Abbott name.”

Kyle’s mouth went dry. “You’re disowning me?” he choked out.

Diane stepped forward, her face full of regret. “We didn’t want it to come to this, Kyle, but you forced our hand. We gave you everything, and in return, you’ve tried to tear this family apart.”

Kyle’s world spun out of control. Disowned. No longer an Abbott. He felt like he was standing on the edge of a cliff, about to fall into an abyss. He thought of the headlines that would flood the media, the shame that would follow him everywhere. His mind raced to Victor Newman, his other powerful ally in Genoa City. Would Victor cast him aside now too? Without the Abbott name, without Jabot, what would he be? Who would he be?

The room began to blur as Kyle stumbled out, leaving behind the shocked whispers of the board members and reporters. His phone buzzed relentlessly as news outlets were already spreading the story: “Kyle Abbott—Not an Abbott After All.” It was all over the internet, on every social media platform, on every major news site. His face—his name—no, not his name—plastered everywhere.

Kyle’s legs moved on autopilot, carrying him toward the only place that made sense—the house he grew up in. He had to hear it from Jack and Diane themselves, away from the boardroom, away from the press. This couldn’t be real. It couldn’t be true.

He burst through the front door of the Abbott mansion, his heart pounding in his chest. “Mom! Dad!” he yelled, his voice frantic.

Jack and Diane appeared in the doorway of the living room, their faces a mixture of sorrow and determination. Kyle stared at them, desperate for some explanation, for something that would make this nightmare end.

“Is it true?” he demanded, his voice breaking. “Is everything you said in that meeting… is it true? Am I really not your son?”

Jack stepped forward, his face filled with regret. “It’s true, Kyle,” he said softly. “We adopted you after we lost our biological son. We wanted to give you a life, a family, and we’ve always loved you as our own. But… you’re not mine.”

“Kyle,” Diane added, her voice quivering. “We wanted to raise you as if you were our own flesh and blood, but we couldn’t continue living this lie.”

Kyle’s mind reeled. His whole life, he had believed he was an Abbott—that Jabot was his legacy, his birthright. But now, everything was different. He wasn’t an Abbott. He wasn’t Jack’s son. He was… nothing.

He looked at his parents—no, his adoptive parents—tears welling in his eyes. “What am I supposed to do now?” he whispered. “Who am I supposed to be if I’m not an Abbott?”

Jack stepped closer, placing a hand on Kyle’s shoulder. “That’s something you’ll have to figure out on your own. But remember this—you were always loved, and you still are.”

Kyle’s heart ached with the weight of Jack’s words, but it did little to ease the deep sense of betrayal coursing through him. He had been living a lie his entire life. And now… now he was left to pick up the pieces.

As Kyle stood there, staring at the people he once called family, he realized he was truly alone. Without the Abbott name, without Jabot, he had no idea who he was anymore—or where he belonged.
