The Bold and the Beautiful’s Latest Twist with Luna is Shocking!

The Bold and the Beautiful doesn’t always give us a Friday to remember, but they certainly did on Aug. 16 with an unexpected episode-ending kiss! It caught everyone off guard because the smooch happened between Bill and Luna. Did your brain just do a record scratch? You’re not alone. Here’s how we went from 0 to 100 in this episode.

The soap brought us back to the moment where Bill was reading the paternity test. The results were not what he and Luna hoped for. Bill is not her father. This revelation left Luna reeling, realizing that Tom likely was her dad—and now he’s dead. Bill tried to comfort her, telling her that she isn’t alone and that he is also grieving the fact that they’re not biologically related.

To be honest, I thought this was going to lead to the billionaire deciding to adopt Luna anyway since he had wanted to be her father even back when Poppy insisted that he wasn’t. Instead, he told her that she’ll always have a special place in his heart and that he still plans on being there for her. What turned the tables was Luna’s speech on how she was brought up.

We knew that Poppy was a single mother whose work history primarily consisted of picking up jobs at festivals. Li called her a gold digger who was always trying to secure a rich man, but Poppy and Luna denied this. Poppy said she did the best she could to provide for her daughter and create a happy home. However, Luna began to reveal just how rough her upbringing had been.

It was hard being the child of a flighty, transient, free-spirited woman. Luna felt the effects of not having a stable home, which was why she was overjoyed to learn Bill was her father. He provided the stability she never had, and they had been so good together as a family. All of that felt like a young woman talking to a man she really wanted to be a parent to her.

Then Luna started listing off Bill’s positive qualities, and the vibe got weird. By the time she called him a beautiful man, we all probably knew what was about to happen. Our suspicions were confirmed when she leaned in and kissed him on the mouth. He was taken aback, we were taken aback, and The Bold and the Beautiful‘s storyline was immediately flipped upside down.

We’re going to find out what exactly Luna is up to next week on the soap, but this could be a desperate attempt on her part to hold onto the life that Bill has given her. Luna has grown accustomed to being the apple of the man’s eye. He’s doted on her, loved her, and promised her a place in his life. All of that is now in jeopardy. Perhaps she’ll do anything to keep him, including attempting to change their familial relationship to a romantic one. Talk about twisted!
