Sharon chooses ex-husband Nick over current husband Jack this week, during Restless Style's latest controversy. "Sharon has accepted that everyone has moved on and they all have their new lives," explains Sharon Case (Sharon). "That said, there is no way of ever tearing apart Nick and Sharon's love for each other. It's always going to be there."
Sharon's devotion to her ex is stirred once again when Sharon and Jack discover an inflammatory article on "the real Jack Abbott" in the latest issue of Restless Style.
"Sharon blames Phyllis," admits Case. "She knows Nick is involved in [the article], but Phyllis is the one who keeps stoking the fire. Phyllis seems to want to use the magazine as a tool against Sharon and Jack."
When Sharon and Jack confront Phyllis, she cops to it. "Sharon and Jack think Phyllis is nuts. It's just crazy to use the magazine to print articles against each other," says Case.
However, Jack decides if you can't beat them, join them. He gives an interview confirming he wants control of Restless Style, determined to push the feud to help sell magazines. "Sharon is upset when she finds out," confesses Case. "She tells Jack to think back to the beginning, when they all came up with the plan for Restless Style. It was supposed to be a creative, fun magazine. She doesn't want to see it turn into this infighting."
Jack takes things a step further when he tries to persuade Sharon to write an exposé on Victor's death. "Sharon agrees that when someone like Victor Newman dies, there is a reason to tell a story, but because everything is so heated between her and Jack and Nick and Phyllis, she disagrees with the idea," recounts Case.
Enter Phyllis, with newly returned Nick, who is coming to terms with Victor's death. Sharon instinctively rushes to Nick's side. "Sharon has been through family deaths with Nick before. Her knee-jerk reaction is to comfort him," points out Case. "She asks how he's doing and if he needs anything; then, she hugs him."
The tender moment quickly gives way to a spat between Jack and Nick over the article on Jack and the proposed exposé on Victor. "Sharon steps in and stops them," assures Case, admitting that Sharon immediately takes Nick's side. "He's the one going through a rough time. He thinks his father is dead. She tells Jack to back down and stop antagonizing Nick."
Jack and Phyllis see this as a sign of Sharon's true loyalties. Case, however, insists there's more to the story. "Sharon is loyal to her marriage to Jack, but she and Nick will have real estate in each other's hearts for the rest of their lives," asserts the actress. "Whether or not they choose to do something about that remains to be seen, but the more time Nick and Sharon spend together, the more they think about it."
Now that's fit to print.
