[edit] History
Nick Newman and Sharon Collins met as teenagers and fought through many tragedies and third parties to be together in a marriage that lasted 10 years, a rarity on soap operas. They have two children together, Cassie (Camryn Grimes) (deceased) and Noah (Hunter Allan).
The greatest test of their marriage came when Sharon's teenage daughter, Cassie, whom Nick had adopted and loved as his own, died in a tragic car accident. Nick and Sharon grew apart because of Nick's obsession with finding the responsible party (the accident was actually Cassie's fault). Sharon started to develop feelings for Brad Carlton (Don Diamont). In the meantime, Nick turned to Phyllis Abbott (Michelle Stafford) for comfort. While Brad and sharon only kissed at a business trip, Nick and Phyllis slept together the same night. Nick and Phyllis later had an affair with "no strings attached", however that changed, when both of them started to develop feelings for each other. Brad and Sharon had also fallen in love with each other, but Sharon wanted to work on her marriage. She later found about Nick and Phyllis' affair. After numerous arguments, and separation, Nick and Sharon started to find their way back to each other. Their reunion was short lived, because they found out Phyllis was pregnant. Phyllis had to have a paternity test to see who the father of her baby was. While waiting for the results, Nick admitted to his sister that he could not get over Phyllis, as he was in love with her. Nick also told his father he wanted to be the baby's father. After the results had determined Nick to be the father, Nick left town, without telling anyone about the results. When he came back he told Phyllis he would be staying with his wife. When Sharon found out Nick told Phyllis the news first, she knew in her heart that Nick was the father. When Nick told Sharon that he was the father of the baby and wanted to be with her and their son, Sharon realized Nick no longer had any love for her. She felt he was staying in their marriage out of obligation. Sharon also noticed Nick was in love with Phyllis. She left her office, and minutes later, started to make out with Brad. Nick approaches her car, and noticed the two were about to have sex, and left. Sharon saw Nick watching them, but continued to make out with Brad. After Nick left, Sharon told Brad that Nick saw them together. Brad, who was married to Nick's sister Victoria (Amelia Heinle), got afraid. Later that night, Nick and Sharon mutually decided to get a divorce, as they have both fallen in love with different people. Thus ending the 10 year marriage between the two. Now Sharon is dating Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and Nick is married to Phyllis, and looking foward to the birth of their baby daughter.
