The Young and the Restless spoilers and updates indicate that Bryton James (who plays Devon Winters) is concluding his marriage, bringing some genuine divorce drama to light for the actor.

TMZ has obtained court documents revealing that Bryton filed for divorce on October 13 in Los Angeles, signaling his intention to officially part ways with Jahaira James, citing irreconcilable differences.

Bryton Hasn’t Even Been Married A Year

This news arrives less than a year after Bryton and Jahaira tied the knot, with their wedding taking place in March.

However, signs of trouble emerged shortly after their nuptials, leading to their separation in June. Since Bryton and Jahaira do not have any children together, this will simplify matters as they pursue their separate paths.

Regarding Bryton James’s requests, he is not seeking spousal support for either party and is asking Jahaira to revert to her maiden name once the divorce is finalized.

This isn’t Bryton’s first experience with divorce; he previously married Ashley Leisinger in 2011, but they officially ended their marriage in 2014.

Most Fans Didn’t Know He’d Been Married Twice

Following  his first marriage, he had a relationship with Brytni Sarpy (Elena Dawson) for a longterm period, although they never publicly confirmed their split; many fans knew of it. But not many fans know about the marriage before he dated Brytni, and if not for TMZ’s diligent dirt digging, they may not have known about the second one either.

It seems like life may have mirrored art as his and Brytni’s breakup must have happened around the same time Devon broke up with Elena. Fans recall that she’s hardly on the CBS soap anymore, although it’s not certain that it could be related to their real-life breakup.

Bryton James Was A Child Star On Family Matters

Some fans may recall Bryton James from his role as Ritchie Crawford on Family Matters, but viewers of Y&R recognize him primarily as Devon Winters.

As far as anyone is aware, Devon is blissfully married to Abby Winters (Melissa Ordway), yet there are subtle indications of potential relationship troubles looming ahead! A new storyline suggests that Abby and Devon’s love story might encounter a significant obstacle, perhaps a betrayal.

In the coming weeks, Devon will face unexpected challenges that could put his family in jeopardy. Is it possible that Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan) will tempt Devon and create an opportunity for him to betray Abby; only time will reveal the answer.
