Some newer viewers of THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS may not even know who Tucker McCall is, despite the fact that his name is occasionally mentioned. We’ve got you covered whether you can’t recall or if you simply need a quick review of the key points.
After William Russ’ brief run as the character in December 2009, DAYS OF OUR LIVES star Stephen Nichols was cast in the role. He kept playing the part until Tucker was written out in January of 2013. However, in September of 2022.
Trevor St. John joined the cast of Y&R in a character that would later be identified as Tucker. Tucker McCall, a powerful businessman in Genoa City, made headlines when he had an affair with Jill Abbott and struck a deal with Katherine Chancellor.
His revelation that he was Katherine’s long-lost son and subsequent sale of her estate was an act of vengeance. After getting to know Katherine better, Tucker decided to keep Jabot for himself and promote Ashley Abbott to CEO.
Although Tucker and Ashley consummated their relationship while he was on business in Japan, she ultimately decided to remain in her relationship with Neil Winters. But he broke up with her, and Tucker cheerily consoled Ashley as they pursued the purchase of the Newman Enterprises subsidiary
Beauty of Nature. He was there for Kay when everyone else had given up hope for her great-grandson, Chance Chancellor. Although Tucker had an affair with Diane Jenkins, he ended up proposing to Ashley on Christmas Eve.
Ashley took the responsibility for her inebriated daughter, Abby, who ran over Tucker and left him in a coma. Katherine and Ashley prevented him from having life support turned off despite his DNR. Kay took over for McCall Unlimited after he stepped down and undid all of his prior business moves.
Tucker also included a son in his will, who, if located, would be entitled to 20 million dollars. Tucker and Ashley were already married when he came out of his coma. The murder of Diane made him a suspect, too.
Following Devon Hamilton’s dismissal from Tucker’s record label, the two men were taken aback to realise they were father and son. The arrival of Devon’s drug addict mother, Harmony, sparked a gradual thawing of tensions between Tucker and Devon.
Ashley’s discovery of Tucker in bed with Harmony was the final straw in their already troubled marriage. He also lost the momentum he had been gaining with Devon because of this. The business advice Tucker gave Sharon Newman
led to romance, and the two were about to get married when Victor came back to town. Finally, after Sharon exposed Tucker’s unscrupulous business dealings, the SEC began investigating him, and he was eventually arrested.
Tucker was freed after Sharon changed her testimony, and he reconciled with Katherine before shattering her heart by telling her he was moving to Hong Kong. Tucker was so distraught by Katherine’s death that he was unable to attend her burial.
When attorney Amanda Sinclair showed up in Genoa City in 2019 with a new version of Katherine’s will, saying that Tucker had been engaged in changing the will to give Devon her fortune, his name came up again.
And in 2021, as Amanda was having trouble tracking down her own biological mother, Devon told her the story of meeting his. The rumour mill also had it that Tucker ditched his fortune and disappeared into the wilderness.
But in 2022, Tucker returned to Genoa City with a bang, flying in via helicopter to interrupt Summer Newman and Kyle Abbott’s vow renewal at the Abbott estate. Diane was disappointed since she had hoped to keep her relationship with Tucker quiet after returning to town.
What a humble statement! In the big scheme of things, Tucker wasn’t in Genoa City for very long (Y&R marks 50 next year!), but he played out a lot of plot during his time there. The business magnate had romantic relationships with Harmony Hamilton (Debi Morgan), Diane Jenkins
(Maura West; now Susan Walters), Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson), Sharon Newman (Sharon Case), and Jill Abbott (Jess Walton)! St. John spent several years working in daytime as Todd Manning/Victor Lord, Jr. on OLTL,
but he claims he had never met any of his new co-stars before, and he was especially sad to have missed out on meeting the great Cooper, who played his on-screen mom. Until today, he claims, “I have never met a soul on Y&R.”
The good fortune I’ve had is that every person I’ve met so far has been wonderful. Ashley took the responsibility for her inebriated daughter, Abby, who ran over Tucker and left him in a coma. Katherine and Ashley prevented him from having life support turned off despite his DNR.
Kay took over for McCall Unlimited after he stepped down and undid all of his prior business moves. Tucker also included a son in his will, who, if located, would be entitled to 20 million dollars. Tucker and Ashley were already married when he came out of his coma.
The murder of Diane made him a suspect, too. Following Devon Hamilton’s dismissal from Tucker’s record label, the two men were taken aback to realise they were father and son. The arrival of Devon’s drug addict mother, Harmony, sparked a gradual thawing of tensions between Tucker and Devon.
