Nelle knew about the necklace and that Nina was looking for her daughter. It doesn't make any sense that Nelle would not of played that card. She would have won her case if Nina stepped up as her mother in court. Strange that Dianne did not ask for a paternity test.

Nelle and Nina are one of the same!
I totally believe Nelle could be related to them
Willow and Nathan on the other hand are saints not sure what happened there ? -
Did she? the necklace was kept in Nelle's BOP. Nina did not always wear the necklace - she would wear it, take it off, keep it on her desk, and play with it, and put it away. Nelle never once discovered that necklace when she was working for Nina and snooping on her desk. I do remember that before the cusotdy trial because I thought she would find the necklace half - but she did not.Originally posted by Slim0911 View Post

I’m surprised that no one asked for a DNA test when it came out about NelleComment

You are talking about a case 20 years ago because you can name one since. However Sam and Alexis were established by birth certificate if I remember and adoption papers. Also through Julian and Sam’s DNA test. Later they all took test to determine if they were matches bettDanny and Sam’s family when Danny was sick. Julian was a match. You don’t have any of that in this case. Could the writers have changed Sam and Alexis connection at one time? Yes they could have but now it would be more difficult. So basically Sam and Alexis are not a good comparison to Nelle and Nina which only connected by an eye witness 20 years later and a necklace both are easily explained away -
Good idea if it weren't for the fact that we all know what happens to dna tests at GH lmao -
Yeah even with a DNA test GH writers there is a 50/50 chance writers will change results. So the fact that Nina and Nelle never had a DNA test done makes you believe it is almost certain they will change it. The writers don't even want the obstacle of trying to explain a DNA test. Only thing to connect Nelle and Nina is a necklace and a witness over 20 years ago.

I don't (in regards to the title of the thread) and I think TPTB are a hoot for having Nelle as Nina's daughter all along.
This is my opinion, and not based on anything but what I have watched on the canvas.
Nina is a manipulative being - she is a documented controller of anyone in her life - from Silas to Sasha to Sonny.
Having Nelle as her daughter is poetic justice in my humble opinion. The genetics are there. The environmental influences are there, and Nelle turned out to be a bad seed.
That said, what happened to Nina by her mother was horrific - and that is a fact. Nina should be thanking her lucky stars that her mother did not kill her, and that she came out of the coma, period. But Nina is not thankful - she is revengeful. And that is why Nelle being her biodaughter makes this viewer laugh at the irony.
As for the retcon, I do not like it. it is playing to the crowd, who has been howling ever since the reveal took place that is was not Willow.
Granted, the soapy angst between Willow and NIna (both actresses) has been great, and many of us thought that it was Willow, only to be shocked and some, disappointed.
Having Nelle as her daughter gives NIna something she must live with and never be able to explain away, which for a controlling person would be horrible. The angst Nina would have to deal with over the years (especially with Wylie) would be soapy goodness that would keep on keeping on.
Having Willow as a live daughter having to overcome the aimosity of the years is a tried and tired soap trope - it has been played out with Bobbie and Carly and Alexis and Sam, and probably more that I cannot think of.
It is an easy fix for a quick payoff making Willow a living daughter of NIna - and yes, we all are watching, but for how long?Comment

I don't remember Nelle finding out that Nina was looking for her daughter.
It would have been a big deal if Nelle saw that Nina had a half-heart necklace and was looking for the daughter with the other half.Comment
-
I don't believe Nelle ever learned about the necklace. Willow did, and looked shocked when she saw Nina with it, which is the first time I figured that Willow was Nina's daughter.Comment

nelle had 1 half in her box of pain and we saw her have it when carly visited fr a few minutes in that flashback...but nelle never saw nina
wearing the other half and didn't know the significance....Comment
-
There was one episode where Nina had her half of the necklace on her desk and on this board, a number commented that Nelle was going to see it and create a fake other half to claim that she was her daughter (this was before the retcon where she had the other half), but she never saw it.Comment
-
It was always a WT?? to me that Nelle did not hear of the necklace and the search for the daughter. Nelle was good at ferreting other's secrets and their pasts. I really can't believe she worked for Nina and never over heard or eavesdropped. BUT I guess that happenedComment
-
In a way it's easy to understand that they are mother and daughter because they are both crazy psychos, but I still don't know why there wasn't a DNA test? A necklace means nothing to me. If it was done off screen why not mention it?Comment

DayRose In the real world, yeah, but this is a soap. Nina doesn't have to prove anything because everyone sees her as Wiley's grandmother already. That's what the writers decided & that's the way it's being written. -
Writers haven't decided anything. They will change the story in a minute if it is a better storyline even with a DNA test. So the fact that they didn't do a DNA test tells me they are actually thinking about changing it or plan to change it. It is fine if you believe that the writers have somehow decided that Nelle is Nina's daughter but until they write the DNA test in the story it isn't decided and there is circumstantial evidence that Nelle is Nina's daughterLast edited by Jenn216; May 25, 2022, 07:45 PM.

Yeah I have a difficult believing that Madeline a grandmother that gave her grandchildren away in a desperate attempt to control her daughters fortune would allow Phyllis to deliver the child and give her a neckless so she can later find her mom. Phyllis made it no secret she planned to make sure that the baby got a neckless to help her find Nina. I also have a difficult time believing that her father would not pawn the neckless, the guy sold his daughter's Kidney.Comment

The necklace was always a WT to me because Madeline would want NOTHING connecting the baby with the mother
And I can sort of believe that a unique special necklace was played by a dollar store one. I doubt a real diamond played the ice princessLast edited by OLTL'69; May 25, 2022, 05:20 AM.

The way I remember it is...both Nelle & Nina were exactly alike...but they never realized that... or that Nelle had her necklace and Nina had her's...and neither of them were aware the other had the matching half...because if either of them did they would have more then likely figured it out

Did Nelle know she was adopted? I too find it hard to believe that she wouldn't have tried to scam Nina as her "lost child" if she knew she was adopted and that Nina was looking for her child. Or even manipulated Nina by saying she was like a surrogate mom to her or she wished she was raised by someone like Nina.Comment
