Kimberlin Brown ‘Killed-Off’ as Sheila Carter on The Bold and the Beautiful in Shocking Twist
The Monday, February 26th episode of CBS daytime’s The Bold and the Beautiful brought with it the apparent end to one of the all-time villains of soap opera.
In story, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) was being stalked by Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) in the dark. Eventually, Steffy stabs Sheila in the heart with a knife and she apparently dies.
Speaking with TV Insider, Brown admitted that it is extremely hard to leave a now iconic role she made soap-famous since 1990 on first The Young and the Restless and then The Bold and the Beautiful.

Kimberlin expressed: “It’s a tough place for me to be in right now; I’m not going to lie about this. I guess if anyone were going to take Sheila down, I’m happy it’s Steffy. I just wish that no one was taking Sheila down.” Three time Daytime Emmy-winner, Jacqueline MacInnes Wood expressed: “It’s bittersweet because I absolutely love working with Kimberlin; she is just the consummate professional.”

However, the stabbing is vindication for Steffy as Wood related, “This is her moment. How long has it taken Steffy to take her down and it’s finally happening, so it’s going to be a big shock.”
As to her B&B death scene and to her future plans, Brown revealed, “Laying there on that floor when the paramedics pronounce the time of death, my eyes were closed and you’re holding your breath so it doesn’t look like you’re breathing. It was just like, ‘Wow, OK, I guess we’ll have to see what might come next for me.’”

If this holds up and Sheila is “dead” dead, it will open up the story and trouble in the marriage of Finn (Tanner Novlan) and Steffy, because ultimately, Steffy killed her husband’s biological mother.

This is leading many to believe this move will bring Steffy back together with Liam (Scott Clifton) while Finn and Hope (Annika Noelle) draw closer. Is that part of the reason for Sheila’s death? Stay tuned.
What do you think about The Bold and the Beautiful killing-off Sheila Carter and Steffy to be the one who put an end to her life? Comment below.
Sheila Carter is not dead, it appears that way. I read something online that Sheila will be back.
Oh please. Everyone knows it was all a dream, it was her not-evil twin, it was someone wearing a mask, it was Roger Howarth…
No wonder nobody watches soaps anymore.
Terrible mistake if this is true. I will no longer watch B&B if they made this mistake without thinking of their fans.
She needs to stay dead. It is ridiculous how many times she has come back from the dead. I admit I am not a fan of KB her politics are really creepy!!
I hope they don’t kill Sheila off . She makes the show
The show has pulled this stunt SO many times with characters supposedly dead or dying that ten people could have seen Sheila burning to death and I still wouldn’t believe it. But if any character needs to stay dead, she’s the one. Sheila is an overplayed, one-note psychopath that should never be revived. Her constantly escaping punishment for her crimes is totally unrealistic and irritating, especially this last time when Deacon made that ludicrous deal with the judge. Why so many viewers love her and are in awe of the actress has always baffled me.
So you can’t wait a few days or use a spoiler-free headline? Some of us have to go to work at an office and can’t watch the show until later. Consider “[SPOILER] killed off in today’s episode” or similar headlines that other sites use in the future please.
She is not dead /Brad thinks this is the goose who laid the golden egg. Firing KA/Taylor totally stupid so once again she won’t be with her daughter. I just can’t with this show.
NO, NO, NO to Steffy & Laim, Finn & Hope!!!
NO ON FINN AND HOPE!! Please
Sheila should stay dead! Yay for Steffy
How about Deacon and Brook? Or Bring Taylor back, they had great chemistry!!
Hope and Thomas actually look like they really love one another!
I hope she has a miracle healing. Then Sheila returns to Genoa City next. There’s no way the writer’s should end her legacy on B&B. She needs to find her way back to Genoa City.
B&B’s best years were always the ones involving Sheila. She better be back fast.
I agree. The best years to me were the ones with Stephanie Sr and Brook going at it. No one could slap a face like Susan Flannery. I use to love watching the two of them go at it.
I don’t believe Sheila is dead, most likely she planned the whole thing, and had someone be her, someone who wanted to die or was going to die anyway— it is the perfect way to drive a wedge between Steffy and Finn, have that marriage fall apart, so she can have Finn in her life without Steffy getting in the way.
Speaking of Sheila dying, does anyone know how they explained Sheila being alive after Lauren shot her dead on the Young and the Restless, when Sheila had plastic surgery to look like Phyllis? I wasn’t watching B&B when the character Sheila first appeared on canvas, so don’t know if the show addressed that “death” or if they simply introduced her without her back story in Genoa City.
I think that I am more in shock than Kimberlin Brown. Agree that Steffy or Finn should have brought her down after she shot them both. But this character had a lot more story in my book so this could be a ratings mistake in the future for Brad Bell and B&B. If it is truly the end, I wish Kimberlin the best as she is one of the best actresses in daytime history. Goodbye for now.
Do not put Finn with Hope, no chemistry whatsoever, might as well put her back with the other non chemistry person. No one wants that. Finn shoukd stand by his wife.
I agree To me Liam was and always will be a whiny whimp. I say leave Finn and Steffie alone
I think it will open the door a steam reunion.
I’m sad to see Sheila go. Maybe she can “return” to Y&R.
I don’t like Sheila being killed on the show.
We all know Sheila’s never really dead. Lol. In the meantime she would be great as an evil long lost Cassadine on GH
GH struggles to write for the actresses in Brown’s age group. No need to add another to the mix when legacy characters don’t have story.
I will seriously stop watching this great soap and I know a lot of other people too will stop if Liam and Steffy get together again. Finn and Steffy are meant to be together.
Sheila Carter helps to make B&B great. Kimberlin Brown is an excellent actress and imo, nobody could play Sheila as good as Kimberlin. I do not see anywhere that her contract ended, not that she got fired. I did see on another Internet site that Sheila’s long time friend, “Sugar” went there to kill Steffy and instead “Sugar” got killed. There had been a couple scenes recently where Sheila went to visit someone. It could have been “Sugar” who was on the show decades ago as Sheila’s evil friend. I do not know if this is 100% true or not but it could be because there was a veil over her face when she was still outside of Steffy’s apartment looking in. There is a possibility she may have had plastic surgery to make herself look like Sheila. I am stumped with this one as I have watched both B&B and y&r since they both started and I do not see anywhere where Sheila’s contract had ended nor she got fired. I for one hope that she is still a part of the show because she is an excellent actress at being evil.
Sheila cannot be dead. If she’s out, im out. Period. She IS the bold in bold and beautiful. Without her, the story is definitely in pieces.
Sheila is framing Steffy for murder to get her out of the picture so she can be there for Finn.This would be the shocker of all shockers!!!!!!
I won’t believe that Shelia is dead until they count the toes!
Sheila was the reason to watch bold and beautiful, the rest of the stories so boring. Some story line over and over, blah, blah
Really hope the writers don’t bring Finn and Hope together…. and Liam doesn’t need a woman, he’s just like a fish as much as he flip flops from one to another, please. Writers makin him look stupid.
Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.
The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.
The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW
As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.
O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”
Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”
You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.
Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.

In what could prove to be a massive shake-up ahead, both the TV Academy (ATAS), who presides over the Primetime Emmys, and the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS), who preside over the Daytime Emmys, are in exploratory reunification discussions to merge the two organizations into one.
Both sides received an overwhelming vote and support from their boards to evaluate what a unified Academy could look like. However there is no formal calendar at this juncture for the discussions. In addition, because of the ongoing unification talks that should occur, the TV Academy board has voted to extend all current sitting Governors’ terms by one year so they can see the process through.
Boards at both organizations voted overwhelmingly to evaluate what a unified Academy could make possible: a strong vision for the Academy’s future, more effective thought leadership for the industry, broader service and support for members coast-to-coast, and new momentum and opportunities across the full complement of national Emmy competitions.

AFTER NEARLY 50 YEARS, CAN THE EMMYS BE UNDER ONE BANNER?
In a joint statement, ATAS and NATAS shared, “Television remains the most powerful medium we have to shape culture and prompt conversations that define us—no matter the size of the screen, With the business of television undergoing such a monumental transformation, this is the right moment to explore a reunification of our Academies, providing our members and our industry with a bolder voice advocating for them and a stronger partner to navigate the future with them.”
If the reunification talks continue, this would be the first time since the two Emmy organizations split back on June 30, 1977 that they have tried to come together, all of this after almost three decades of often uneasy and strained tension between the two.
The most recent joint change came in 2022 when a move of the game show categories went from NATAS to ATAS’ and now are in the Primetime Emmys.
Deadline notes that a unification of the two television academies who overall preside over nighttime and daytime programming would be similar how SAG and AFTRA used to represent performers from completely different dayparts of work.
Could the Daytime Emmys finally see some love in primetime and have their major categories televised as part of the annual kudofest every September? Stay tuned.
Meanwhile, the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony will take place live on Monday, September 14th starting at 8:00 p.m. ET / 5:00 p.m. PT and air on NBC and stream on Peacock emanating from the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles. While, the 53rd annual Daytime Emmy Awards will take place on Friday, October 30, time to be announced, live from the Hollywood Palladium and will be streamed on watchtheemmys.tv
The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) is a service organization dedicated to the advancement of the arts and sciences of television and the promotion of creative leadership for artistic, educational and technical achievements within the television industry. It recognizes excellence in television with the coveted Emmy Awards for News & Documentary, Sports, Daytime and Children’s & Family programming, as well as achievements in television Technology & Engineering.
The Television Academy (ATAS) strives to shape and advance the dynamic television landscape; cultivate a diverse, inclusive and accessible professional community; and advocate for the television industry while capturing the spirit of a new generation of content creators and industry professionals. Through innovative programs, publications and events, the Academy and its Foundation foster and empower storytellers. The Academy also celebrates those who excel in the industry recognizing their achievements through awards and accolades, including the renowned Emmy Award. Membership in the Academy is open to working professionals in the television industry.
So, would you like to see the Primetime Emmy and the Daytime Emmys fold into one show if the two unions reached a unification arrangement? Do you hope that after almost 50 years, the two organizations can finally make some serious headway? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
