‘Young And The Restless’ Fact Check: Cane Ashby’s 5 Worst Lies Over The Years

Young and the Restless spoilers say Cane Ashby [Daniel Goddard] doesn’t have a leg to stand on when it comes to Lily Ashby [Christel Khalil] divorcing him over his latest lies. But is this really the worst thing the devious Aussie has ever done? To be honest, he’s never been a knight in shining armor or a particularly trustworthy guy. He’s tall, he’s handsome, but he’s trouble that looks good in a suit and Lily has known it for years. Here’s a look at the five worst lies Cane Ashby has told since he rolled into Genoa City a decade ago.

1 – Lying about sex with another woman – Chloe – on Young and the Restless

Nope, we’re not talking about the lie about Juliet Helton [Laur Allen], but a very similar lie. Cane has the worst luck with women. They’ll get him drunk and tell him they had sex. Chloe Mitchell [Elizabeth Hendrickson] liquored up Cane after she found out she was knocked up and told him they hooked up. She announced the news just in time to ruin his marriage proposal to Lily on Young and the Restless.

Just like he’d done with Juliet. He moved Chloe in with him. Then he married her so the child would be legitimate. But he didn’t know Chloe had lied and tricked him. Eventually, Chloe’s lie was exposed and Billy Abbott [Jason Thompson], his half-brother, found out he was the father of Chloe’s kid, who was named Delia Abbott. The truth freed up Cane Ashby to reunite with Lily as seen on Young and the Restless.

2 – Cane Ashby lied about who he was on Y&R

Young and the Restless watchers recall the big fat lie about Cane’s identity. He was initially believed to be Jill Abbott’s [Jess Walton] long-lost son Phillip Chancellor III. After Lily and Cane reunited once Chloe told the truth about Billy being her baby daddy, this ugly lie was revealed. Cane Ashby admitted to being a no-good Australian cattle rustler. Lily dumped him again upon this revelation but they later reconciled.

3 – Cane faked his death and let Lily mourn him on Young and the Restless

Cane Ashby gaslighted his wife Lily after faking his death. Plus, h was scheming with his mom Genevieve Atkinson after his twin brother Caleb Atkinson [also Daniel Goddard] died. Cane and Genevieve were trying to trick Colin Atkinson [Tristan Rogers] who was plotting to kidnap Cane’s kids, Mattie and Charlie Ashby, after he thought he died. Lily is still holding a grudge about that lie on Young and the Restless.

4 – Lying about sex with another woman – Juliet on Y&R

Of Cane’s more recent shenanigans on Young and the Restless, one sticks in Lily’s craw. He lied about getting drunk and sleeping with Juliet. That must remind her of the lie he told about Chloe a long time ago. Cane Ashby kept lying even when the lie tore apart Brash & Sassy and forced Victoria Newman [Amelia Heinle] to write Juliet a check to settle the sexual harassment lawsuit.

5 – Setting up Billy and ruining the hockey deal

Even when Cane Ashby knew him sleeping with Juliet was lurking. He didn’t stop his scheming – as seen recently on Young and the Restless. Cane plotted to humiliate half-brother Billy Abbott [Jason Thompson] by creatively editing footage of a backstage hockey event to make it look like reformed habitual gambler Billy was back at it. Not only that, but he drained his kids’ college account to pay blackmail to the editor.
