The Young and the Restless is keeping fans on their toes with the Matt Clark revelation. Now another layer has been added, making us wonder if we aren’t being duped.

Key Takeaways

• Sharon thinks Mitch is Matt Clark.
• Sienna knows something is up with her husband.
• Is it Matt or is another soap twist looming?

The Mitch/Matt Factor

When Sharon (Sharon Case) ran right into Mitch (Roger Howarth) and declared he was a not-so-dead Matt, the aftermath was not what fans expected. Instead of a face-off with their villain, Mitch acted like he didn’t know Sharon or who the man she was calling him was.

Adding more fuel to the fire is Nick (Joshua Morrow) asking Sienna (Tamara Braun) questions about her husband. Sienna defended Mitch, but it was easy to see that something wasn’t sitting right with her.

This has Y&R fans wondering what the deal is with Mitch. One option is that Mitch is a good old-fashioned long-lost soap twin of Matt’s.

A fan on X asked whether Mitch is really Matt, his twin, or another twist altogether. Most fans feel like Mitch is Matt, but the evil twin twist wasn’t too far behind in second place.

There is another option too. Mitch could be Matt with amnesia as opposed to Matt with an agenda.

Y&R seems to have shaken things up with the twist that Mitch is either faking that he doesn’t know Nick and Sharon, or he really doesn’t recognize her.

“Is this really Mitch who looks like Matt Clark or is this really Matt Clark who is using Mitch as a disguise. I am actually invested,” shared one fan on X.

One Y&R fan didn’t believe Mitch was Matt from the jump saying, “My first impression was that Mitch is not Matt Clark, he really didn’t seem to know who Sharon was & randomly running Noah off the road after 20 years wouldn’t make a whole lot of sense, hoping it’s a flip in the script, and it is a good twin story rather than the evil twin.”

This story is just getting started, so the answer to who Mitch really is won’t be happening anytime soon. The good news is that Michelle Stafford (Phyllis) gave fans something to look forward to when she teased upcoming scenes between Morrow and Howarth.
