Paternity Shocks, Power Moves, and a Scandalous Kiss
Hold onto your designer handbags, soap fans—because today’s The Bold and the Beautiful full episode recap is serving up a three-course meal of drama, deception, and emotional meltdowns. We’ve got paternity bombshells, corporate chess moves, and a kiss so scandalous it might just blow up Forrester Creations. Let’s get into it!
Luna and Finn’s Tear-Filled Family Reunion
Luna Nozawa is in shambles—and for good reason. After years of thinking she was the daughter of the late (and let’s be honest, not-so-beloved) Tom Starr, she now knows the truth: Finn is her real father. And just like that, her entire life flips upside down.
At Bill Spencer’s place, Luna is in full meltdown mode, spiraling about all the pain she’s caused. And let’s be real—she’s got a lot to regret. From unintentional crimes to deep-seated daddy issues, it’s a mess. She sobs to Finn, confessing that she always wished someone would come save her from the disaster that was her childhood.
Finn, bless his morally conflicted heart, looks like he’s just been hit by a freight train. But instead of running for the hills (which, honestly, he probably should consider), he steps up and embraces his daughter. Tears, heartbreak, redemption—it’s all here, folks. Whether or not Finn’s ready for fatherhood is another story, but at least for today, he’s doing his best.
Taylor is Not Having It
Back at the Cliff House, Taylor Hayes is processing this whole “Finn-is-a-dad” revelation, and to say she’s not thrilled would be the understatement of the year. When Steffy Forrester drops the bomb that Poppy, Finn’s aunt, had a one-night stand with him back in the day, Taylor just about short-circuits.
Let’s break this down:
Poppy seduced a college-aged Finn.
Poppy got pregnant.
She lied about it for years.
Taylor, being the sharp woman she is, immediately goes into denial mode. “This is ridiculous!” she declares, insisting the paternity test must have been tampered with. Finn should take another test! Maybe a third test! Maybe a hundred tests!
Steffy, however, is having none of it. “Mom, he’s already done two. The results aren’t changing.” And with that, Taylor is left fuming while Steffy watches her entire life become even more complicated.
Hope Is Team Daphne—But What’s Up With Carter?
Meanwhile, at Forrester Creations, Hope Logan is riding the high of a wildly successful fragrance launch. Daphne Rose, the new It Girl in the world of perfume, has taken Hope for the Future to a whole new level, and Hope is positively gushing.
The only problem? Carter Walton is looking about as excited as someone stuck in LA traffic. Zende picks up on it immediately. “Why do you think that might be?” he asks Hope, who brushes off the concern. “Carter’s fine! He’s just… processing!”
Sure, Hope. Keep telling yourself that.
Zende, always one to clock when something’s off, isn’t buying it. And honestly? Neither are we.
Daphne Puts Carter in Checkmate
While Hope is busy playing PR queen, Daphne is in the main office reading Carter for filth.
“You went against your best friend and the family who took you in,” she reminds him. “Was it worth it?”
YIKES. Someone hand Carter an ice pack because that burn stings.
Daphne, ever the strategist, lays out an offer: If Carter hands Forrester Creations back to Ridge and Steffy, she’ll personally broker the deal. And suddenly, Carter has a big decision to make.
But before he can even process that?
That Kiss That’s About to Wreck Everything
Carter and Daphne have been circling each other like sharks for weeks, and today, they finally take the plunge.
After all the deep talks, emotional soul-searching, and heated eye contact, Carter lets his guard down. Daphne, ever so dramatically, places a hand on his chest and tells him, “You’re so much more than you think you are.”
And that’s all it takes. One moment they’re talking business, and the next? Their lips are locked.
Unfortunately for them, Hope sees the whole thing.
That’s right. From the hallway, Hope catches the whole steamy moment, and let’s just say—she is not okay. With a look that screams devastation, she quietly closes the door, knowing her world just shifted in a very bad way.
Who’s Winning and Who’s Losing?
Today’s episode of The Bold and the Beautiful was pure chaos, and we loved every second of it. But let’s break it down:
Biggest Winner: Daphne Rose
Not only did she just manipulate Carter into considering a major power move, but she also secured herself a steamy makeout session in the process. We see you, girl.
Biggest Loser: Hope Logan
Girl thought she had it all under control—her business, her vision, her relationship—but now? Not so much. We can’t wait to see how she handles this betrayal.
Wildcard: Taylor Hayes
She knows something isn’t right, and if there’s one thing about Taylor, it’s that she never lets a mystery rest. If Poppy did lie about the paternity test, you better believe Taylor will find out.
