The Young and the Restless spoilers shock on Thursday’s full episode (March 10, 2025).

In recent weeks, a sense of foreboding has settled over Genoa City.
Rumors and hidden motives intertwine with unfolding chaos, leaving citizens on edge and family alliances fraying.

At the center stands Diane, a woman with a secretive past and uncertain loyalties.
Her behavior grows erratic, and she’s clearly afraid—perhaps for good reason.

She’s long floated on the fringes of the Abbott family, but with the mounting crisis involving Tracy and Ashley, Diane seems more entangled than ever.

Behind her calm façade lies a storm of secrets and emotional wounds.
Many suspect she knows more about the family’s troubles than she lets on.

A key revelation: Diane was romantically involved with Martin, a man with a vendetta against the Abbotts.
Martin’s obsession with Diane—rooted in a dangerous past—has fueled a campaign of terror against her and her extended family.

As tension mounts, Diane feels cornered.
Her past is catching up with her—and with it, the risk of unraveling the entire Abbott legacy.

Diane finally confides in Jack Abbott, telling him everything about Martin, their affair, and the danger it now poses.
Her confession shocks Jack but motivates him to act.

Jack forms a task force with Ashley, Phyllis, and Chance Chancellor to expose Martin.
They track him, gather evidence, and protect Diane by placing her in a secure location.

To draw Martin out, Jack plants false intel suggesting Diane is willing to meet him.
Martin takes the bait and walks into a trap set at an abandoned factory.

Authorities arrest him, ending his reign of fear.

In the aftermath, the Abbott family publicly supports Diane.
Martin’s trial is imminent, and Diane is determined to rebuild her life—with Jack’s help.
