‘Bold & Beautiful’ Takes a Cringe-Worthy Turn: What’s Happening?

Bold & Beautiful writers have recently introduced several twists into the storyline that have left viewers baffled. On Friday, a particularly cringe-worthy moment shocked the audience. One of the central characters, Luna (played by Lisa Yamada), has been on a quest to determine who her biological father is. However, her latest action left fans questioning what’s going on in Bold & Beautiful. Here’s what we know so far.

It was initially believed that Bill (Don Diamont) was Luna’s father. Earlier this year, Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda) conducted a DNA test that confirmed Bill as the dad. Then, Tom (Clint Howard) claimed to be Luna’s father right before he was mysteriously murdered. The murderer remains unknown.

Last week, a second DNA test was conducted on Bill after Poppy (Romy Park) was arrested. This test revealed that Bill is not, in fact, Luna’s biological father. While this revelation itself was surprising, it wasn’t the biggest shock.

Just before the weekend, Luna stunned viewers by kissing Bill, the man she had thought was her father. This moment was incredibly awkward and cringeworthy, leaving fans to wonder where the series is headed with this storyline.

Next week’s episodes promise to reveal Bill’s reaction to Luna’s kiss. Viewers can likely expect a dramatic “who’s the daddy” storyline to unfold in the coming episodes.

Beyond the awkward kiss, other storylines have left fans puzzled as well.

Hope’s (Annika Noelle) character has undergone a dramatic personality shift almost overnight. Viewers will soon see her kiss with Finn (Tanner Novlan) exposed. This revelation will likely result in confrontations with Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood).

Additionally, viewers are struggling to accept the recasting of Taylor Hayes. Rebecca Budig has taken over the role, but many fans feel she looks too young to be Steffy and Thomas’ (Matthew Atkinson) mother.

There is a consensus among fans that Budig is a talented soap actress, especially known for her role as Greenlee Smythe on All My Children. However, many feel she doesn’t fit the role of Taylor Hayes.

Between the recasting decisions and the unusual storylines, fans are left scratching their heads, wondering what direction the writers of Bold & Beautiful are taking the show.

New episodes of the soap opera air on weekdays on CBS.
