Y&R Twist: Holden's Loyalty Is Tested — Will Claire Be the One to Pay the Price?
Holden (Nathan Owens) had planned to go back to Los Angeles. However, he stayed in Genoa City to keep an eye on Audra (Zuleyka Silver). She hasn't warmed up to his good looks and charms. Instead, she's been focused on her relationship with Nate (Sean Dominic). But now, her new interest is in Kyle (Michael Mealor).
READ THIS: Why a Claire and Holden romance should happen on Y&R.
Holden did strike up a friendship with Claire (Hayley Erin). They've already shared many good drinks and interesting conversations. Holden even helped Claire overcome her panic attack with some breathwork and more drinks. Since Kyle and Audra are out of town, Holden has even more time on his hands.
His luck could change. On the Tuesday, July 1 episode of Y&R, Holden met Cane (Billy Flynn) in the flesh. He was surprised to learn that Cane left his guests behind and headed back to GC. But Cane needs to set up his life there again. He also has an interest in the businesses over there.
Cane offered Holden a new opportunity. Of course, as with any new opportunity in Genoa City, it comes with strings attached. Cane wants Holden to get more information about Adam (Mark Grossman), Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan), Abby (Melissa Ordway), Mariah (Camryn Grimes), and Claire. This could work financially in Holden's favor, but it won't work for him personally.

Holden would ultimately ruin the possibility of a friendship with Claire. She's a smart woman. She could quickly find out what Holden's up to. He can kiss their friendship goodbye if he wants to fraternize with the enemy. In the end, this could affect Claire, especially now that she has close ties to the Newmans. What are your thoughts on Holden's new opportunity? Do you think this will ruin his chances of ever becoming friends (and more) with Claire? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section.

Heather Graham flaunts ageless figure in stunning bikini collection during Italian vacation
There is no one else who is soaking up the sun more these days than Heather Graham. The actress, who is on vacation in Sardinia, has delighted her 571K followers on Instagram by proudly displaying her collection of bikinis while beating the heat with pals. "Got to explore beautiful Sardinia with my friend @debrajfisher," the 55-year-old captioned the series of photos. "@janeseymour came along for part of our adventure. I admire her long career and her #joiedevivre. How the hell does she look so good? I'm asking for her secrets." "The sea is so beautiful and the food is so good," she shared. "I discovered #culurgiones…" The "Austin Powers" star modeled six different swimsuits during her beachy getaway. While she primarily opted for string bikinis in vibrant hues, Graham also sported curve-hugging one-pieces. In sizzling snapshots, Graham is seen enjoying the crystal blue waters of the Mediterranean. She also spent time with friends and explored luxurious yachts. At one point, she was accompanied by Jane Seymour, who, like Graham, proudly flaunted her youthful figure in a baby blue and coral one-piece. In June, Graham and Seymour, 74, attended the Filming Italy 2025 red carpet at Forte Village Resort. Most recently, Graham spoke to Retreat Magazine about her approach to aging. "I think what matters most is how you feel inside," she told the outlet. "Decide that you're hot and enjoy your life. What other people think of you is none of your business. If you feel good about yourself, no one can take that away from you. Pursue the things that fill you with joy, and surround yourself with loving people." "I don't drink or do drugs, and I get a lot of sleep," Graham continued. "Eating healthy makes me feel good. I like cooking for myself and other people. And I love it when people cook for me. Basically, I like eating! Also, I do affirmations. I think they are very powerful. I work on strengthening my inner loving parent muscle, so I can be supportive and loving to myself. One of my affirmations is: 'This is the best time of my life.'" During an interview with People magazine in April, Graham admitted to being a happier person after she turned 55 in January. "I feel like as I get older, I just care less about things that don't matter," she told the outlet. "Everyone gets upset sometimes, but I think that I'm happier. I've done enough hard work on myself that I feel like I'm a happier person now." The "Boogie Nights" actress has been focused on wellness since she was 21. Graham works out, eats healthily, does yoga and meditates. Graham got her start in the entertainment industry when she left her parents' home at 18 and moved to West Hollywood, California, with a roommate. Graham graduated from high school with a 5.0 GPA and went on to study English at UCLA. After her junior year at the university, she decided to drop out to focus on her acting career. The actress is proud of the life she has created for herself. "I live in Los Angeles in a house I bought last year. I also have a loft in New York," she told The Wall Street Journal in 2024, noting that her West Coast home "has views of the Pacific." Most recently, Seymour spoke to Fox News Digital about how she's stayed in shape for decades without fad diets or marathon workout routines. "I almost always never have breakfast," the "Dr. Quinn" alum explained about her diet. "I will have liquids and my vitamins. I've got this vitamin combination that has collagen. I'll have that in the morning and either black tea, coffee, or water. And then at lunchtime, I'll have a fabulous meal, whatever I want pretty much. I tend to like salmon, shrimp and grilled vegetables. And I love Italian food. I might have a little eggplant Parmesan; it's a favorite of mine. Maybe some lean chicken." The star said that the one thing she "almost never" eats is steak, but she does make exceptions. "Once in a while, I'll have a little bit of filet steak, maybe a couple of slices. I'm not against it. But I feel better usually when eating fish and lots of vegetables. I grow a lot of my food in my garden, a lot of it in pots actually … it keeps the bugs out. I have lettuce, arugula, artichokes, avocados, blueberries and strawberries. Also, lots of different types of kale. I love eating fresh vegetables. When I grill my vegetables, I add a little bit of olive oil and sometimes a sprinkle of salt." The former Bond girl also noted that it's important for her to stay active daily. However, she listens to her body about what it needs each day. "I work with a lady … it's almost like physiotherapy, but it's a workout. I do Gyrotonics and some Pilates – a lot of floor work, believe it or not, even though I'm on a bench. But everything I do, anyone else can do at home, in a hotel room, their living room, their garden – anywhere where you can put a yoga mat down. I do Pilates legwork, which is like doing some of my ballet. I can use my own weight or a ballet bar."

I just do as much as my body is comfortable doing because I don't want to injure myself. I had back surgery a long time ago. That's a nemesis for me. So, I listen to my body."

Jeff Bezos & Lauren Sánchez Borrowed This Reception Detail From Kate Middleton's Wedding
Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez already have a week of marriage under their belt, but people are still discussing the details of their three-day Venice, Italy extravaganza. It seems that they borrowed a particular detail from Kate Middleton's 2011 wedding to Prince William. The Prince and Princess of Wales' royal wedding over 14 years ago is still considered a timeless classic — from Kate's elegant dress from designer Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen to the couple's romantic balcony kiss. It's understandable why celebrities might try to borrow elements from the royals' big day, but Bezos and Sánchez went in a different direction and took a detail from Kate and William's reception. More from SheKnows While Mel B Walked Down the Aisle, Victoria Beckham Quietly Reminded Us Who's the Queen of Weddings Just like the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Amazon founder and his bride had British singer Ellie Goulding play at their reception on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice, per People. Kate and William's first dance was to Goulding's cover of Elton John's hit single, 'Your Song,' and the 38-year-old singer made sure to sing it for Bezos and Sánchez too. The only difference is that the billionaire couple had Andrea Bocelli's son, Matteo Bocelli, sing his version of Elvis Presley's 'Can't Help Falling in Love' for their first dance. Goulding hasn't spoken publicly about the June 27 reception, but she did share her thoughts with the Daily Mail in 2012 about the royal wedding. 'Performing the first dance of the night, 'Your Song' was nerve-wracking,' she admitted. 'But William and Kate were very appreciative. They are an awesome couple and told me how much they enjoyed it. My band and I stayed at the reception all night, and it's something I'll treasure forever.' Still, Goulding revealed to Vogue Australia in 2016 that her nerves got the best of her. 'I mean, talking about scary… I was so nervous that my hands were shaking like this [she shakes her hands]. That was one of my memories, I remember looking down and just seeing this,' she recalled. 'Chris, my pianist, I looked over at him and he looks at me like, 'Literally, you have just sh—ed yourself. I know it in your face that you've just literally pooed yourself.'' Yet years later, it was still a true pinch-me moment for Goulding. 'I thought I was a decoy for someone else,' Goulding joked. 'I thought it could happen. Because at the time, Gaga was everywhere and rightly so, she was killing it. And Beyoncé and Jay-Z and then… me.'
