The Week in Daytime: Five Stories That Made Headlines




Another week of daytime drama is coming to an end, and there's plenty to discuss across the five soaps. Brook Lynn faces a possible custody battle, Katie and Brooke's rivalry continues, and Hayley's pregnancy is causing quite a stir in Fairmont.

Here's a look at five storylines that stood out this week.


General Hospital: Brook Lynn Faces a New Threat

Brook Lynn and Chase could be facing a custody battle after Jude Jacks showed up at the Quartermaine mansion claiming to be Phoebe's biological father.

Jude, who introduced himself as Jerry Jacks' son, claimed that he never gave up his parental rights and that Phoebe's adoption was therefore invalid.

For Brook Lynn, the possibility of losing her daughter is frightening enough. Now she and Chase have to figure out what Jude actually wants and whether his claims will hold up.

His sudden arrival also raises another question: Why has he waited until now to come forward?


The Young and the Restless: Trouble for Victoria and Kyle

Victoria Newman and Kyle Abbott's romance is already facing complications.

Their trip to London didn't go quite as planned when Billy Abbott interrupted them. Kyle had some explaining to do, and Victoria began questioning their relationship.

With the history between the Newmans and Abbotts, the two were always going to have a difficult time keeping things private.

Now the question is whether Victoria is having second thoughts about Kyle or simply doesn't want to deal with the family drama their relationship could cause.


The Bold and the Beautiful: Katie and Brooke Are at It Again

Katie and Brooke Logan are finding it increasingly difficult to keep their business rivalry from affecting their relationship.

Katie has been making progress with her fashion house, Logan, including bringing Zende on board. But Brooke isn't pleased about the competition with Forrester Creations.

Things became more personal when Katie discovered that Brooke had been messaging Bill about the rivalry.

Katie has spent years living in Brooke's shadow, and she's clearly determined to build something of her own. Whether Brooke can accept that without interfering remains to be seen.


Days of Our Lives: Sarah and Xander Could Be Finding Their Way Back

Xander Kiriakis survived being shot while protecting Sarah Horton, but the incident has changed things between Sarah and Brady Black.

After seeing Sarah's reaction to Xander's injuries, Brady decided to end their relationship.

Sarah has tried to move on from Xander, but it's becoming increasingly obvious that she still has feelings for him.

A reunion wouldn't exactly be surprising, considering their history. Still, getting back together is one thing. Staying together without repeating their old mistakes is another.


Beyond the Gates: Hayley's Pregnancy Raises Questions

Hayley Lawson's pregnancy is becoming a major talking point in Fairmont.

After the news began spreading, Hayley told Bill Hamilton that she was expecting. His reaction wasn't exactly what she had hoped for.

Bill questioned whether the baby was his, while Hayley insisted that she wanted both parents involved in raising the child.

Given their complicated relationship, the pregnancy could create even more problems between them.

And now that members of the Dupree family have heard the news, Hayley may have more than Bill's doubts to deal with.


What Was Your Biggest Story of the Week?

Brook Lynn's family could be headed for a custody battle, Victoria and Kyle's relationship is already being tested, and Katie is refusing to back down from Brooke.

Meanwhile, Sarah and Xander may be getting another chance, while Hayley's pregnancy could change her relationship with Bill.
