Y&R spoilers reveal it’s been a hot minute since Ian was on canvas. He entered the country of GC in 2014 and was prominent figure on screen until around 2016.

Ian was the leader of the “New World” cult, a group that Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) and Paul Williams (Doug Davidson) were affiliated with in their younger years. She became pregnant by Dylan McAvoy (Steve Burton) during this time, and because Ian had raped her, they both believed at one point that he was Dylan’s father.

Y&R spoilers remind fans that Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) also entered the storylines in 2014, and she was also linked to Ian as a former member of his cult. Ian encouraged her to try to bond with Sharon Newman (Sharon Case), but didn’t exactly explain why.

As viewers may recall, Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) did some research, because he was suspicious, and it turned out that Mariah was Cassie Newman’s (Camryn Grimes) unknown twin. It turned out that Ian had stolen Mariah at birth, and the madness didn’t stop there!

Ian would kidnap Mariah, drug her and put her in a wedding dress to marry her. Both had married, but fortunately, their wedding did not take place.

Yet Ian returned yet again, escaping from prison to team up with Gabriel Bingham, who was actually Adam Newman (played by Justin Hartley at the time).

The goal was to bring down Newman Enterprises and Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), but he also landed in the orbit of Phyllis Newman (Michelle Stafford), posing as “Fred”, a local fisherman while she was at the Abbott cabin.

This was during the Paragon computer virus storyline, where somehow Ian managed to escape from prison but return to his cell without the guards noticing anything. whatever.

That being said, later that year he ended up escaping from prison again and setting fire to the Newman Enterprises tower. Adam was devastated by what his “partner” had done.

While everyone thought Ian had died in the fire, Phyllis played a role in tracking Ian down and exposing him to the police before he could release the Paragon virus.

Then, in 2016, when Victor landed in prison, sure enough, one of his inmates was Ian Ward. He tried to concoct a plan with Victor that the Mustache would help him get out of prison, but it all went wrong.

Ian ended up taking Nikki to the Abbott cabin, where Phyllis happened to be at the time, and held both women hostage.

Luckily, they were eventually saved by Victor, along with Paul and Dylan, and Ian was sent back to prison, but clearly the prison cells couldn’t hold him for too long.
