They’ve managed to have a beautiful wedding and become husband and wife again, but their happiness will officially be short-lived, as Devon and Hilary share only a few final moments together on the Friday, July 27 episode of “The Young and the Restless.”

Devon (Bryton James) and Hilary (Mishael Morgan) had finally made things work between them and were expecting a child together when tragedy struck on the CBS soap in the form of a horrific car accident. Since then, they lost the baby and learned that Hilary had suffered too much blood loss, and would die very soon too.

Since then, Devon made sure to do everything in his power to make Hilary’s final days memorable, first by proposing, and then putting together a quick, beautiful wedding for the woman he loved. Surrounded by Neil (Kristoff St. John), Nate (Darnell Brooks), Cane (Daniel Goddard), Lily (Christel Khalil), Mattie (Lexie Stevenson), Charlie (Noah Alexander Gerry), Shauna (Camryn Hamm), Phyllis (Gina Tognoni), Mariah (Camryn Grimes) and Jack (Peter Bergman), the pair said their vows, exchanged rings, and were pronounced husband and wife.

Now, the two will be left alone to enjoy their small amount of time together as a married couple, and Devon will continue to enthuse to his wife about all of his plans for the future, unaware she already knows she’s dying and that he was trying to keep the news from her. Hilary will then admit to Devon that she knows she doesn’t have much time left, and the two will sit together in her hospital bed and embrace.

As they stay together like that, with Hilary in her husband’s arms, she will ask him to make sure her funeral is one that celebrates her life. She will also encourage him to not only continue looking after Shauna but to also eventually find a new woman to love and have a family with. The two will continue to share their moments together, thinking about their past and all the love they shared for one another, until Hilary passes, leaving Devon to officially mourn her and the life they weren’t given.

“The Young and the Restless” airs weekdays at 12:30 p.m. EDT on CBS.
