All hail The Bold and the Beautiful’s Steffy Forrester! Now after all, it is her birthday, and this supermom, wife, and Co-CEO of Forrester Creations is quite the force to be reckoned with.  With today also marking the 9000th episode milestone of the CBS daytime drama series, why not make it a special episode devoted to the character, and its two-time Daytime Emmy-winning actress, Jacqueline MacInnes Wood.

Throughout the half-hour, Steffy spends a few moments with her dad, Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), who gets her the the most fashionable of birthday cakes, then presents her with a slideshow of the life and times of his daughter all the way from when she was a child, to a teen, to a young adult.  Steffy has plans for her birthday with her hubby Finn (Tanner Novlan) so she needs to skedaddle, but dad wants her to hang out a little longer with him.  In the end, Finn wins out, and she heads home.

Now at the cliff house, Steffy comes upon a homemade birthday card from her kids, when Liam (Scott Clifton) shows up.  He says he plans on not staying long, although he did stay long enough for the exes to walk down memory lane, complete with the original song from Scott Clifton that aired previously, and a montage of some of the duos most heartfelt moments.

Meanwhile, back at Forrester Creations, Taylor (Krista Allen) and Ridge praise their daughter. Taylor is happy that the former ‘wild child’ has found a man to love her like Finn.

Back at Steffy’s, Finn set the tone for a romantic night celebrating his wife with some of her favorite food and wine.  Steffy shares to Finn that this birthday means more because he came back to her when she believed he had died, and how they received a second chance at a life together.

Cue the flashbacks of Finn, after being shot by Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) and Steffy over his body, and later their long-awaited reunion in Monaco where the church bells rang when as they ran towards each other.  Next, Finn gives Steffy a birthday gift.  When she opens it, Steffy finds a small remote. When she pushes the button, the bells from the church in Monte Carlo play.  As Finn and Steffy kiss in front of the fireplace, the camera pans out to a an exterior shot of Finn and Steffy at the cliff house revealing the outside sky and fireworks that go off that say ‘9000’  – a great touch to acknowledge the series milestone.

You can check out the final moments of B&B’s 9000th episode below.

Now, let us know, what did you think of the show devoted to Steffy? Share your thoughts and your congratulations to B&B in the comment section for hitting another milestone in their 36-year run.

Did not watch but just read it so prepare yourself for another round of Liam & Steffy! What a awful outfit she has on

Pretty sure Liam and Steffy will be reuniting again and poor Gorgeous Finn will be out ‍♀️ this sucks lol but I love the drama & I’m so excited to see what they do next!! I Looove Steffy!! She’s the BEST!! Congrats on your 4th pregnancy im so excited for you im praying it’s a girl this time!! You have to have some equality in that house girl you’re outnumbered lol! Hopefully not for long lol! I have a huge feeling though that A certain “Bad Boy” and HOPE will be having some sexy time on set!! Iykyk
I’ve been watching this show since I was like 6 years old & I haven’t stopped since it’s one of my favor soaps the other is Y&R!! B&B & Y&R my favvvvss!! Love you all so much you’re amazing!! ♥️

I’ve never understood hers (JMW) or this show’s appeal. In the 80s with Susan Flannery it was probably good but now it’s seems like woke drivel. I like Heather Tom a lot tho.

A wonderful tribute to Steffy Forrester and the beautiful actress, Jacqueline MacInnes Wood, who portrays her, in honor of The Bold & the Beautiful’s 9,000th episode.

The 9000th show sucked. I don’t think it should have been all about Steffy. She hasn’t been there for even half that many episodes! It should have focused on the original players still left: Eric Forrester, Ridge Forrester and Brooke Logan. (Taylor was not an original character, before anyone jumps on me about including her.) Jacqueline Macginnis Wood is not the show. I’ll NEVER understand how or why she wins the awards she does. She is not a very good actress. And for pete’s sake, she needs to decide if she is going to be an actress or a baby making machine! Now she will br off on another pregnancy leave and the show will be repeating the same storyline and dialogue for months upon months again! I’m not anti-woman or anti-child, but if it’s going to constantly interfere with your job, then pick family or work. Sorry, but I am old fashioned like that.

I agree but maybe they may do other feature shows. I agree the OG’s should’ve been honoured. Brooke is the backbone of the show. Steffy is great too. Happy for them all on 9000!

I do wish it was more about Steffy and her history on the show; both the actress and the character, and a lot less about Finn. But It was wonderful that they recognize this actress for her 15 years PLUS she is number 3 in episode count, right behind Kelly and John. That’s a lot of work! Her loyalty to the show is phenomenal. She deserves the honor. (Despite what the haters in your other comments say).

Yes, so happy for her but they could’ve added something at the beginning re the OG’s to honour them— reflecting on Steffy as a leader and innovator “next gen” type thing. It would have been respectful and inclusive ♥️

Missed the episode as it was pre-empted here in Ca in favor of crappy Soccer.

I have never been a Steffy fan as they started her out being deceptive, coniving and a most dislikeable self-centered character. She always seems to get just what she is after by any means that she chooses. I am just not fond of a character that displays those attributes. Not that Jacqueline MacInnes Wood dosen’t do an excellant job, she does, I guess that may be the reason I dislike her (Steffy) so much.

B.L Robinson,
I couldn’t have said it better myself. She sure takes after her Grandmother Stefanie. Unlike today’s show when Ridge was bragging about passing his artistic talent on to Ridge, Jr., that he inherited from HIS dad, Eric. They forgot that Ridge is not Eric’s s son but Masimo Marone’s.

Steffy and Carter

After taking a second pregnancy test on the Friday, September 12 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) freaks out ever more when it come back positive, too. Leading her to shriek, multiple times over, “Oh my God! Oh my God! I’m pregnant!”

As previously reported, CBS and The Bold and the Beautiful have already confirmed that in the story, the baby Steffy is carrying is Carter’s (Lawrence Saint-Victor) which kicks-off their 40th season of storytelling. However, could there be a twist down the line that it’s really Finn’s (Tanner Novlan)?

On Friday’s episode, Carter gets a text from his wife, Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) telling him she wants to talk more about surrogacy later, since she cannot carry Carter’s child, and the couple was exploring ways for them to have a baby. Suddenly, Carter flashes back to waking up next to Steffy on the couch in the office after they had sex the night before in their drunken stupor.

CARTER DEVISES A PLAN

Then, Steffy comes whirling into the office demanding to talk to Carter right away. Steffy is informing Carter that she has to tell Finn about their night together more than ever! A confused Carter asked her what changed, when they agreed to keep their one night together a secret? Carter tells her if she reveals what happened between them, it will tear about all of their lives.

Carter thinks nothing will come of their “mistake” if they keep their mouth shut. Steffy responds, “You’re wrong.” She goes on to explain that she’s pregnant! That declaration stuns Carter and we fade to black.

However, it was the preview for the action next week on The Bold and the Beautiful, that aired at the end of Friday’s episode and is now all over B&B’s social media that is the real tell-tale sign of where this story is heading.

B&B SPOILERS

In a scene airing next week, Carter says to Steffy, “I have a way out of the situation for all of us!” This comes on the heels of Daphne telling Carter she wishes she knew someone who would be their surrogate. So, putting two and two together, it looks like Carter will come up with the idea to pass Steffy and his baby off as the surrogate child of Carter and Daphne.

Look no further than the official B&B spoilers for episodes airing Monday, September 14- Friday, September 18 and the teaser lines of the Steffy/Carter baby drama to back that up below.

Monday, September 14, Steffy’s news complicates things even more with Carter, while on Tuesday, September 15, 2026  Daphne is hopeful she and Carter will be able to find a surrogate and Carter rushes to stop Steffy. On Wednesday, September 16, Carter makes a passionate plea. and by Thursday, September 17, Daphne can’t believe Carter’s suggestion. Then come Cliffhanger Friday, September 18, Steffy is caught off guard.

So, what do you think how it look to be Carter who originated plan to keep the truth from ever coming out, that he and Steffy had sex, and the best way to do this is for Steffy to be the surrogate for Carter and Daphne’s child? How complicated will the cover-up eventually get? Will Steffy fall in love with the baby making this whole thing untenable for her?

Jason and Britt

On the Friday, September 11 episode of General Hospital, Jason (Steve Burton) and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship becomes strained to potentially the point of no return.

Things take a turn when an unglued Britt having been traumatized by almost being killed by Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) asks Jason to back her up with the PCPD when she reports Anna for attempted murder.

However, Jason told Britt, he can’t. Jason shares that he does not believe Anna would have gone through with shooting her. Therefore, Britt was not in any real imminent danger. Britt is flabbergasted and hurt that Jason is refusing to tell the police what he actually witnessed for himself on Mount Emerson.

BRITT WANTS BACK UP FROM JASON

Jason counters that he can’t believe that Britt would want Anna punished. or sent to prison, or a mental facility after the trauma she endured while being locked up and mentally tortured while at Wyndemere.

He asks Britt, “How could you even say that you want her locked up or prosecuted for what she did when you knew she was being held prisoner and you did nothing to save her?” Britt is stunned by Jason’s response.

Coming up, official General Hospital spoilers share that on the upcoming Monday, September 14 episode, Jason confides in Carly (Laura Wright), while Britt is stung. In the video preview that aired at the end of the Friday, September 11 episode for this coming Monday, Britt says to Jason, “You don’t believe me. Do you?”

General Hospital head scribes, Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte previously teased in their fall preview of the soap, “Britt and Jason have come a long way and fought a lot of enemies to be together. But the most stubborn obstacle to their happiness isn’t without, it’s within. Decisions Britt made to stay alive while under Cullum’s thumb will come back to haunt her and may prove too difficult for this unlikely couple to survive.”

So, what do you think will happen? Will Jason and Britt break-up over Britt’s lies and Jason’s unwillingness to report Anna’s crime against her? Do you want Jason and Britt to go their separate ways? If they do, will Britt become romantically involved with Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) ? If so, who do you pair Jason with? Anyone? Weigh-in via the comment section.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Steffy is Shaken to the Core, ‘Oh My God! I’m Pregnant!’

Steffy

On today’s Thursday, September 10 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) discovers she’s pregnant, after taking a home pregnancy test, that will launch a new story arc that will remain front and center for the show in the months ahead.

The life-changing story kicks off the B&B’s 40th season which officially began on September 8. In it, Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) is the biological father of Steffy’s unborn child from their drunken night together when both endured turbulent times in their marriages.

Previously, Carter had trouble with Daphne (Murielle Hilaire), when she initially walked out on him, because she could not carrying his child. Meanwhile, Steffy broke up with Finn (Tanner Novlan) while in Monaco over Finn’s mother Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) showing up, who once tried to kill her.

Fast-forward, Carter and Steffy made a pact that no one will ever need to know about their drunken night together, but now with Steffy becoming pregnant it changes everything. Making matters all the worse, Daphne views Steffy as her best friend, in fact, Daphne and Carter have been talking about having a child via surrogacy. While Finn had showed the couple how to start the process of finding a surrogate, Daphne felt just choosing a random person to carry Carter’s child is so impersonal. She would rather have it be someone she knows.

It does not take a scientist to predict … that somehow Steffy will carry the baby pretending to be the surrogate, when she its biological mother, and along the way, the questions become, does she keep the whole thing somehow a secret to herself? Doe Carter find out at some point? Stay tuned to see how this story reveals itself.

At its root, this is a major storyline for Wood, who has already won three Daytime Emmy Lead Actress Awards in her 18 years with The Bold and the Beautiful. In that time, her character of Steffy has experienced multiple pregnancies, given birth to two children, Kelly with Liam (Scott Clifton) as the father, and Hayes with Finn as the father, and endured a miscarriage.

So, what did you think of Steffy getting confirmation she is pregnant and looking mortified when she found out? What will she do next? Will she tell Carter? Will Daphne come to Steffy to ask her to be her surrogate, which Steffy may think will be the answers to her prayers, only for the truth to come out later, or falling in love with the baby since its hers to be begin with? Share your thoughts and theories for this major story for Jacqueline MacInnes Wood, via the comment section.
