[edit] Character History
Best friends Sabrina Costelana and Victoria Hellstrom met when they both attended the Guggenheim Program in Florence, Italy. Sabrina was getting her Masters in Art History and Victoria was an undergrad student. They met again and were roommates in Paris where Sabrina was the Art Curator at the Pompidou museum. Victoria eventually returned to Genoa City, but she and Sabrina would meet up again in Florence years later when Victoria left Newman Enterprises. This time around, Sabrina was working with private collectors procuring artwork and Victoria was teaching art at a convent school.
In 2008, with plans of making a new beginning in New York City as a Consulting Private Curator, Sabrina stopped in Genoa City to check in on Victoria, who had just come out of a months-long coma. Sabrina had just broken up with her lover, Phillipe, a talented artist she placed in an art show only to have him dump her afterward. Phillipe now claims to want her back, calling often and saying he made a lot of mistakes. Victoria, newly married and with a new baby, persuaded Sabrina to live at Newman Ranch during her stay. Sabrina began spending a lot of time in the company of Victor Newman, who was recently divorced from his wife, Nicole "Nikki" Reed, and was living alone at the Newman ranch. They began speaking French to each other and shared their love of art. About the time Sabrina tried to tell Victoria of her growing romantic interest in her father, Victoria told her how much she hoped her parents would reconcile for the umpteeth time.
Though her art preference was Modern where his was Classic, Sabrina convinced Victor to invest in Modern art after a trip to Los Angeles in which Victor wooed and won her. On returning to Genoa City, Victor decided to open the city's first art museum in the ground floor of a building Nick owned...a building on which Victor just happened to own the mortgage. The building also headquartered the Restless Style magazine on an upper floor. Sabrina decided she had to tell her friend Victoria that she and Victor were having an affair. Victoria was aghast, called Sabrina an opportunist and kicked her out of her house.
Sabrina moved in with Victor and after only a few happy days together, Victor proposed to Sabrina, who happily accepted.
