Mariah und Tessa sollen in der US Soap "Young and Restless" ein Paar werden; wenn ich das richtig verstanden habe, wurde dies auch schon bestätigt. Sie wären damit das erste Regenbogenpaar in dieser Soap.
Hier mal ein Eindruck von den beiden:

Daytime Confidential: Mariah and Tessa kissed last week on The Young and the Restless. What was the genesis behind telling a story where two seemingly straight women fall in love?
Sally Sussman: When I came into Y&R last September, I had one day's notice to start the job. I had been traveling in France with my feature documentary [Midnight Return: The Story of Billy Hayes and Turkey], and hadn't been watching the show for several years. So, I had nothing prepared and never have started a job like that before. But because of the change happening so fast, I had to jump in with both feet. While starting to write the daily shows, I came up with several stories that I pitched the network; one of which is the love story between Mariah and a new character named Tessa. This is a love story; it's not a gay story. It's about falling in love with a person, not a gender. It is about Mariah and Tessa's self-discovery and it catches them both off guard. People fall in love unexpectedly for all sorts of reasons. Some they understand; some they don't.
DC: Soap fans and TV journalists alike have long been critical of Y&R over its tepid history with LGBT stories. Did you receive any resistance from Sony or CBS after pitching the story?
SS: The executives at CBS who oversee daytime enthusiastically approved this story; I think they saw the value and the freshness in the way it would be told. They did however note that they have a very conservative audience and this story may offend some people. CBS knows their audience very well, which could be the reason Y&R never did a story like this before, except in the early 70's when Bill Bell tried it and it was very negatively received.
DC: Per usual with LGBT stories on daytime, some fans are loudly voicing their disapproval on social media. Did you anticipate this?
SS: Before the kiss actually aired and the audience was starting to sense where the story was going, I was told by CBS that they had been getting a lot of negative comments. Because I had been away from the daytime genre for 10 years, and was aware that many other soaps had done stories featuring LGBT characters — some as long as 20 years ago — I was honestly a little taken aback by the depth of the negativity. It made me quite sad. When I created Generations, my goal was to make the African-American families where you didn't see race. I had hoped with this story people wouldn't just see gender; they'd feel the honest love between the characters. I hope the audience watches as it plays out and doesn't judge too quickly.

Last week, Mariah and Tessa’s slow dance culminated in their first kiss, which, naturally, made some Y&R viewers go ballistic. How dare they show two adult women kissing on TV in the middle of the afternoon?! Despite decades of advancement in real life and myriad LGBTQ characters on prime-time TV, moralizing conservatives are still singing the same decades-old tune.
But there’s a new twist in the romantic melody that’s currently playing out on TV. Two women are falling in love, and so far, there hasn’t been any mention of either’s sexual orientation. Although they’re both clearly surprised and confused by their burgeoning feelings, neither Mariah nor Tessa appear to be struggling with their sexual identity or trying to define it. At the moment, they’re just two women falling for each other and attempting to make sense of it without putting a label on it.
Let’s just hope it continues to play out like a universal love story, without the handwringing over sexual orientation that usually accompanies daytime-TV forays into same-sex romance. There’s already inherent drama in two siblings falling for the same person, even if it’s not two sisters or two brothers. Who ultimately ends up with whom doesn’t have to be as life-defining or character-defining as the unplanned pregnancy currently complicating another Y&R storyline.
Yes, coming-out angst is a fact of LGBTQ life, but Y&R‘s new writing regime would be wise not to predictably fall back on it. I’m dreading having to watch poor Noah get his heart broken again. But if “Messa” can bring us closer to demolishing those tired old distinctions between “gay” love and “straight” love, it’ll be worth his pain.

Auf Twitter gibt es für mein Empfinden übrigens deutlich mehr Unterstützung für die Storyline als auf Facebook

I like to shut "the haters" down with an existential crisis

When I receive hateful/bigoted tweets all I can think of is the handmaid's tale
and how we are headed straight into that reality
