What Can Fans Expect From Roger Howarth’s Stint on The Young and the Restless? Howarth is playing Matt Clark, the evil ex of Sharon, who spent years wreaking havoc on Nick and Sharon. The fact that he is alive in Los Angeles as Mitch, the husband of Sienna (Tamara Braun), likely means trouble for Sharon and Nick.

Adding the fact that Noah was in a mysterious car accident has only added fuel to the fire, as Matt used Noah to get to his parents. In an interesting turn of events, Matt is acting as if he has no idea who Sharon is. It was a twist that fans didn’t see coming. Matt blew her off in the nicest way when she confronted him, adding a whole other layer to this story. While fans don’t know what Matt has in store for Nick and Sharon or if he even remembers them, what fans can count on is that Howarth will bring the drama and fire. The actor is an icon in the soap world and gives it his all to every single role he takes on. Thanks to Stafford’s social media share, fans know that’s once again the case. Stafford’s tease comes hot on the heels of Case making a promise of “powerful stories” taking over the CBS soap amid a cast shake-up. The Young and the Restless airs weekdays on CBS.
