Devon Hamilton and Hilary Curtis are fictional characters and a supercouple from the American CBS soap opera, The Young and the Restless.[1][2] Devon Hamilton, portrayed by Bryton James is the biological grandson of the show's iconic matriarch, Katherine Chancellor, portrayed by Jeanne Cooper and the adopted son of Neil Winters and Drucilla Winters, played by Kristoff St. John and Victoria Rowell. Hilary Curtis, portrayed by Mishael Morgan was introduced in 2013 as a woman looking for revenge on Neil and the Winters family for Neil's part in her mother's death.

The couple quickly rose to popularity in the summer of 2014 as they began a forbidden affair soon after Hilary's wedding to Neil. The duo faces several obstacles including Hilary being intimidated by Devon's billion-dollar inheritance, Devon believing Hilary is interested in other men, their trepidation in hurting Neil, Hilary's disappearance on their honeymoon, her kidnapping and subsequent memory loss at Neil's hands and Hilary's consistent lying driving Devon away.

Devon and Hilary were first called super couples when they started their affair and they are commonly referred to by the portmanteau "Hevon" in magazines, on social media, and internet message boards. Viewers and critics have praised the undeniable chemistry between the characters which is credited as the reason for the duo's success—despite inconsistencies in the writing. The duo has been compared to William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Devon and Hilary also won the Fan Favorite Award for "Most Romantic Duo" at the 42nd Daytime Emmy Awards in 2015 and the plot earned Bryton James a Daytime Emmy Award nomination Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series in 2016.[citation needed]
