Victor and Nikki Newman are fictional characters and a supercouple from the American CBS soap opera The Young and the Restless.

Their pairing, regarded as an "inspired decision", led to Victor and Nikki becoming the most successful supercouple on The Young and the Restless.

In 2008, Nikki began an affair with the devious David Chow (Vincent Irizarry), resulting in the pair's second divorce.

In March 2013, after four years of an on-and-off relationship, Victor and Nikki remarried for the third time, coinciding with the 40th anniversary of The Young and the Restless.

The News & Advance cited Victor and Nikki with other romances considered "epic" of the early supercouple era.

Nikki later recovered, but intentionally hadn't informed Victor to stay clear of the threat Ashley posed.

Victor and Nikki ended up divorcing after he lashed out at her for purposely providing information about Ashley's abortion to an unauthorized biographer — Leanna Love.

After his car is found with a body inside burned beyond recognition, word reaches Genoa City that Victor is dead.

However, Victor turned up at the Kansas farm of the blind Hope Wilson just in time to rescue her from a rapist.
