The recent premise of The Young and the Restless witnessed the return of Ian Ward and Aunt Jordan. The notorious duo out-of-nowhere had been inculcated into the Phyllis and Sharon drama. This had many wondering how they fit into the current storyline and where this surprising twist is headed. So, here’s everything you need to know about what Ian Ward and Aunt Jordan actually want.
Who are Ian Ward and Aunt Jordan in The Young and the Restless?
Ian Ward and Jordan Howard are antagonistic characters in The Young and The Restless.
Ian Ward, portrayed by Ray Wise, was introduced in 2014. He was a cult leader, whose arrival at Newman Ranch became an ultimate threat to Nikki initially. During his show’s final moments, he learned about Adam and Chelsea’s fake escape plan and ultimately took Nikki and Phyllis hostage. He asked Victor to transfer millions of dollars. Victor agreed in exchange for Nikki and Phyllis’ release. However, he set him up for arrest, when he allocated funds to his offshore account, alerting the police.
Meanwhile, Jordan Howard, played by Colleen Zenk, is an aunt to Claire Newman. All along the show, she had been evil, trying to manipulate Claire and taking Nikki under her custody for the revenge of her sister’s death. She tried to take away the Newman family’s lives by drugging them. Several evil actions later, she was ultimately locked in the basement by Viktor. She was also arrested later.
What do Ian and Jordan want in The Young and the Restless?
Ian and Jordan’s evil motivations in The Young and the Restless remain unclear.
The recent episode showcased Aunt Jordan and Ian’s meet-up in the hotel room, confirming they are now out of the prison somehow for igniting mayhem. Jordan assured him that everything worked out per their plan, making it unclear about their brewing conspiracy.
Since their return, many have speculated on what a potential storyline could be including these villains. Many assume that Jordan might have caused Phyllis’ car crash, also putting Sharon in ultimate guilt. Also, one of them might be Heather’s killer as well, who later pinned the blame on Sharon. Ian’s motivations might be fueled to remove Sharon entirely from the picture to reconnect with Mariah, whom he wanted to marry. Nevertheless, this is merely speculation, the duo might have some other evil plans as well which the audience might be unaware of.
