How Sharon Case and Mark Grossman’s real-life break-up changed Y&R’s fate!
Mark Grossman and Sharon Case publicly announced their relationship quite some time after they started dating. They appeared to be spending a lot of time together on each other’s social media posts. The fact that Mark appears to be doing the exact same thing with Courtney Hope now suggests that all of that is in the past. And this past seems to have affected their roles on the Young and the Restless. Here’s how Mark and Sharon’s real life relationship changed the course of Adam and Sharon’s storyline on the show.
Sharon and Mark dated publicly but had a rather private break-up
As everyone’s favorite tormented bad guy Adam Newman, Mark Grossman is doing quite well. However, the actor’s private life is a topic of discussion in the soap opera industry behind the scenes.
Grossman started dating Sharon Case, who portrays Adam’s ex-wife, Sharon Newman, after joining the CBS soap opera in 2019. Despite keeping their relationship a secret, Grossman and Case’s flirtatious Twitter conversations and Instagram posts gave rise to dating rumors. Case didn’t publicly admit they were dating until a March 2021 visit on a podcast. However, the couple’s romance, unfortunately, ended sometime around late 2021 or early 2022.
Their breakup had tons of drama going on off-camera. This was due to the fact that many viewers couldn’t help but question whether Sharon and Mark weren’t exactly getting along on the set. Meanwhile, it appeared that Mark and his other co-star, Courtney Hope, had moved past Sharon.

Y&R writers ended up splitting Adam and Sharon for good on the soap
Due to their real-life breakup, the writers of Y&R decided to make a huge change in their pairing in the show. With Mark starting a new beginning with Courtney in real life, the storyline between their characters on the show was hugely impacted. Adam was preferred with Sally more rather than Adam and Sharon.
In an interview with Soap Opera Digest in 2021, Mark Grossman went on to say that Sharon is Adam’s first love. Adam was head over heels for Sharon but their relationship didn’t last long. With the real-life breakup and storyline changes, Adam and Sally have developed a strong bond, raising the possibility that Sharon Case didn’t want to have anything to do with Mark. It appears that the writers of The Young and the Restless would be better off pairing Sharon’s character with Chance Chancellor.
