Biography[]

Nikki took a job stripping where she was introduced to business mogul Victor Newman, who would become the love of her life. Nikki learned about high society from Victor. Soon, the couple fell in love. Jealous of Victor's feelings for Ashley Abbott, Nikki had an affair with Ashley's brother, Jack Abbott. Nikki was diagnosed with an incurable disease, which sent Victor back to her. Nikki lying about her remission didn't endear her to Victor, but the final straw was Victor blaming her for Leanna Love writing about Ashley aborting Victor's baby.
