‘The Young and the Restless’: Diane Should Have Turned Down Jack’s Proposal

The Young and the Restless has been a cultural institution since it first premiered on CBS in 1973. And like so many other daytime soap operas, a lot of its focus is on romantic relationships. Much to the surprise of fans, though, one of the show’s longtime romantic couples just delivered an unexpected twist as Diane (Susan Walters) and Jack’s (Peter Bergman) got engaged.

Jack and Diane have history on ‘The Young and the Restless’

Jack and Diane’s relationship began back in the early 1980s, with the latter seeing him mostly as a career opportunity. But real emotions soon emerged. Of course, love doesn’t come easy on soaps like The Young and the Restless. So Jack wound up marrying someone else instead. The couple began an extramarital affair, and many years of falling in and out of love – as well as more marriages on both sides – followed.
