How many wives has Victor had on Y&R? A complete guide to his 14 marriages

In the treacherous world of The Young and the Restless, Victor Newman isn’t just a ruthless tycoon or the eternal rival of the Abbotts—he’s also the undisputed king of the altar. With 14 trips down the aisle, Victor has turned matrimony into an art form, each union laced with passion, betrayal, and unforgettable twists.

It all began with Julia Newman, his first wife, back in 1980. But as fate would have it, their love dissolved swiftly when Victor’s eyes fell on a young stripper named Nikki—his true obsession. Their first wedding, a lavish affair in 1984, would be only the beginning of a chaotic, decades-spanning love story, interrupted by affairs, near-death experiences, and other women.

And there were many women.

He wed the fiery Leanna, who schemed her way into his heart. He married Hope, a blind woman he saved from tragedy, only to see that relationship unravel over a heartbreaking disagreement about their unborn son, Adam. Then came Ashley Abbott—Jack’s sister and Victor’s weakness. Their tangled saga involved secret pregnancies, stolen sperm, and the birth of Abby Newman.

There was Diane Jenkins, who married Victor in a revenge plot gone too far—twice. Then Sabrina, Victoria’s best friend, who died tragically pregnant after a short-lived love affair. Even his own daughter-in-law, Sharon, made it to the altar with Victor, in one of the show’s most shocking twists. And let’s not forget Maggie, the black widow bartender who nearly conned him into death—until he turned the tables.

And through it all, the stormy, all-consuming bond with Nikki remained. Despite multiple breakups and remarriages, their love has proven unshakable. In 2013, on Y&R’s 40th anniversary, they said “I do” one final time—for now. Fourteen weddings. Nine women. One legendary man.

Only in Genoa City could love be this dangerous—and this addictively unforgettable.
