Christian Andrew Newman is a fictional character from the original CBS Daytime soap opera, The Young and the Restless. He is the son of Sage Warner (Kelly Sullivan) and Adam Newman (Justin Hartley), prematurely delivered by Adam in Chancellor Park on October 7, 2015. Christian was presumed dead on November 8, 2015, as a result of complications from his premature birth. It is currently believed that Nicholas Newman (Joshua Morrow) is his father, however, it was revealed that Adam is Christian's biological father, and Adam switched the results to avoid suspicion when he was masquerading as the late Gabriel Bingham. Only days later, it was revealed that Christian's death was faked by Dr. Anderson (Elizabeth Bogush), a doctor at Fairview. Dr. Anderson's motives for the switch are still unknown at this time, but on November 23, 2015, she hands Christian to Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) and congratulates her on the birth of her new son. Sharon was a patient at Fairview after miscarrying her baby with Dylan McAvoy (Steve Burton) and she was served medication by Dr. Anderson and kept in a drug-induced state. Sharon and Dylan decide to name their baby Sullivan "Sully" McAvoy, in honor of Dylan's friend who was killed in Afghanistan when their platoon was attacked.
Sage confronted Nurse Stephens on April 27, 2016, and she admitted to stealing Christian and helping Dr. Anderson pass off Christian as Sharon's son. Sharon had a DNA test run which proved "Sully" was really Christian but decided to hide the truth. Sage confronted Sharon, who admitted the truth, but Sage died in a car wreck on her way to tell Nick the that Christian was alive.
