THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Finn Hit the Sheets with Poppy Years Ago; Demands to Know if He’s Luna’s Baby Daddy!
Ok, so Finn (Tanner Novlan) and Poppy (Romy Park) had a relationship many moons ago! And, it was confirmed in a conversation on the Wednesday, January 29th episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, when viewers finally learned just how close the two were when they were much younger.
Already very suspicious, and having just looked at a photo of Luna (Lisa Yamada) on his phone and a list of her crimes online, Poppy shows up at Finn’s office after he insisted she come over right away.
The conversation then takes us on stroll down memory lane, never mentioned before! Finn asks Poppy, “Aren’t you curious who Luna’s father is?” Finn tells Poppy that she needs to be honest with him. Did she keep Tom’s letters from Luna, because she didn’t want him to be her father, or because she knew he wasn’t? Poppy wants to know why he’s asking these questions. Finn says seriously, “You know why, Poppy.”

Next, the two reminisce when Poppy came to live with Li (Naomi Matsuda) and Jack (Ted King). Apparently, Finn and Poppy, who were living under the same roof, spent many nights laughing and confiding in one another and one night they had sex. In fact, Finn reveals she was the first woman he ever had sex with and shared an incredible connection with. He then clarified, “There was nothing wrong with it. I’m adopted and was of age.”
Poppy says he changed her life forever and Finn responds that’s what he is concerned about. How did he impact her life? Finn has an uneasy feeling, shouting, “When you told me you were pregnant, you swore it couldn’t be mine, but then you were gone.” Finn wants answers now, exclaiming, “You need to tell me. You need to tell me the truth! If there is any chance, any chance at all that Luna could be my daughter. You need to give it to me straight, Poppy. The truth. Am I Luna’s father?” We fade to black after a long soapy tag stare down.
So, what do you believe will be Poppy’s answer? Is Finn the true biological father of Luna, or is this going to turn out to be one very large red herring? Comment below.
This is disgusting. I don’t care if Finn is adopted. He grew up knowing Poppy is his aunt. Finn should just leave it alone and not want to know if Luna is his daughter.
Exactly what I was thinking! I don’t like being called Step sister, & step monsters family considers me as another sibling, blood is nothing when it comes down to how you feel about someone. Only counts for organ donations, & blood donations.
That is Sick
I think he was just trying to rationalize it by the fact, it wasn’t Incestuous and that he was at least 18 at the time. I still think Poppy took advantage of his very young age and lack of experience, he was probably a virgin.
Ok, DONE!
I’m sorry but Poppy is a nasty HOOOOO. Bleck!
It’s so boring now. Bill and Lunatic childhood horror stories. Move,on, reveal it so I can see Steffy crumble.
This story is gross, and it’s just the latest example of B&B’s long history with pseudo-incestuous stories. Remember Ridge & Bridget’s fling back in the day? Or Rick’s relationships with both Phoebe and Steffy? Or even more recently, Thomas & Hope’s relationship after growing up as step-siblings?
Brad really has to stop with these types of stories, because they’re majorly off-putting and completely unnecessary. There would have been enough drama with Luna being Jack’s daughter, and it would have been far less jarring than this.
Plus, it makes Poppy basically unredeemable. Not only could Luna have potentially been fathered by four men (Tom, Bill, Jack and now Finn), but this twist means she slept with her adoptive nephew, and was his “first.” So icky. I really couldn’t care less where the story goes from here, I just want it to stop.
This is Brad this is because he wants to recycle Sheila and she is yesterdays news but now we make Luna her granddaughter one of the worse actresses to show up at his door. The expiration date went way past due on KB. Ugh
And Finn only learned that he was adopted a couple years ago, so he had no idea of the fact that Li was not his biological mother until he was married to Steffy. This story IS really gross!!!
I thought Finn always knew he was adopted, but didn’t know that Jack was his biological father?
Finn knew he was adopted,he already knew Poppy wasn’t blood to him
Me too!!!!
Get rid of Stuffy and Taylor
What I really thought was disgusting was Ridge practically taking Caroline away from Ric, while they were still married, made up their own wedding vows, living together until she had Douglas and not really knowing if he or his son was the bio dad.
If we have learned anything about Poppy,it’s you can’t believe a word that lady says..So hopefully Finn isn’t just going to take her word,get a paternity test like All the other guys..he could do it in his office just like Li did
Finn also said that years later he recognize that it was wrong what they did.
I wish soap press would call out the fact that Poppy is a groomer and predator. She preyed on Finn. She took advantage of the fact that he was freshly out of high school, barely legal adult, who was a virgin. She most likely began to plan this before he turned 18. It’s just disgusting, and B&B is being irresponsible romanticizing this. It’s such harmful message, and insulting to adoption and victims of grooming. And yes adults can be groomed. The power imbalance between an aunt and nephew, and the fact, that the reason why Poppy moved in was to watch over Finn, makes it grooming.
Exactly
If li ran jacks DNA to see if Luna was his , it would have shown some type of relationship if he was indeed the bio grandfather. So therefore Finn can not be Luna’s father or Li being a medical profesionist that she is would have known it was someone related to jack. That didn’t happen so stop with the crazy stories that dont add up. Some of us are also medical professionalist that watch the show , so, make it make since please .
This is wrong, what is the age difference to be , between Luna and Finn . He has a baby at home. He is not that old to be her daddy. And if he is then that’s child rape. This show is ridiculous.
That’s ridiculous make another mystery man for Poppy. Jack has same DNA as Finn so something would have showed up. Give her a break! Need new storyline…
OMG, can’t wait for Li to find out that her slutty sister defiled her still teen- age son and did not sleep with her husband, which she had thought. I hope she rips her apart!
I guess that you can kill people and get a pass. This whole setting Luna free is beyond ridiculous !!!
Luna is a cold blooded double murderer. Poppy is almost a child molester. Why are these characters on television? Soaps should stop normalizing reprehensible behavior. And they wonder why they keep losing audience share.
This whole “poor Luna” storyline is an insult to our intelligence !! From a wonderful love filled childhood to horrible mom is hypocritical !! The writing has gone from bad to worse. Too many upheavals that don’t make sense. Taking a break.
General Hospital
Could Kristen Vaganos and Josh Kelly Be Exiting ‘General Hospital?’

General Hospital fans took to social media following the airing of the Wednesday, October 21 episode of the ABC daytime drama series. In story, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) reveals to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) that she has received an offer to join the top law firm in Chicago that practices civil law. She says it’s her dream job.
The problem Molly says is relocating from Port Charles and uprooting her life and being away from her mother, Scout and boyfriend Cody Bell (Josh Kelly). Wistful that she may lose another daughter to a long-distance situation (Kristina left a few months back to go to medical school in California), Alexis urged Molly to get Cody to go with her.
Molly still seemed concerned and has trouble committing to the idea. Alexis tells her to talk it over with Cody. Meanwhile, Cody asked Tracy (Jane Elliot) is he can have Thanksgiving off because he and Molly planned to spend Thanksgiving together with their families. After initially balking, Tracy agrees.

WILL MOLLY AND CODY HEAD TO CHI-TOWN?
Later, Cody shows up at Miller & Davis and the conversation turned to Thanksgiving dinner that Alexis is hosting. Molly and Cody asked her not to cook anything. Cody hugged Molly reassuring Alexis that he and Molly would take care of whatever was needed on Turkey Day.
So, this raises the question, why out of nowhere are we learning that Molly received an amazing law offer in Chicago, if the character was not being written out? If Molly leaves the canvas, would the character of Cody make his exit too?
Kristen Vaganos joined GH as a recast Molly Lansing-Davis back in September of 2023 and went on contract in August of 2024. Josh Kelly began playing Cody Bell back in June of 2022. Initial reports were that Kelly joined the show on contract and then as of June 2025 went on recurring status with the show per his choice.
Do you see a world where GH is writing out Molly and Cody? Would you be sad to see Kristen and Josh exit the soap opera? If this is not what is going on, is this just a plot point for some other story that is upcoming? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.

THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Adam Delivers Sally’s Baby as Billy Reels from Jill’s Health Crisis in Tearjerker Episode

The Tuesday, October 20 episode saw The Young and the Restless deliver some deeply-poignant moments in the aftermath of Billy (Jason Thompson) and Sally’s (Courtney Hope) wedding.
The scenes which will be talked about for some time to come, because of how they can impact longterm story, had Adam (Mark Grossman) being the one to deliver Billy and Sally’s baby, while Billy was gut-punched by a phone call from Snapper Foster that Jill had suffered a heart attack in London.
In story, while up in Sally’s room at the GCAC, wishing his ex all the happiness, (because Adam and Billy have no love lost, and he didn’t want to cause waves), Sally’s water broke. In true soapy fashion, all phones were dead. Sally’s phone was missing because it was with Audra (Zuleyka Silver), Adam’s battery ran out etc. Prior to that, Adam did try to call Billy, but Billy did not pick up his calls, as he was with Cane (Billy Flynn) coming to terms with the news on Jill.

TORN BETWEEN RUNNING TO HIS MOTHER OR HIS NEW WIFE AND BABY
Now in the perfect storm of circumstances, Adam is the one to help Sally deliver her baby when she begged him to stay with er screaming, “Please don’t make me do this alone!” Adam reminded Sally that he’d already delivered a baby twice before. She assured him that it will be OK, and not to be scared, because this isn’t the same set of circumstances when she lost their daughter, Ava, during childbirth.
Downstairs, Billy is in tears over his mother. So too is Cane. Cane speaks to Jill on the phone when Snapper holds the phone to her while at her hospital bed. He tells her he loves her. Billy cannot bring himself to talk to his mom.
Cane decides he will go to London. Billy doesn’t know what to do with a new wife and a baby on the way. It’s clear how much losing Jill would devastate Billy. Cane tells Lily (Christel Khalil) what has happened to Jill, and Billy informs Jack (Peter Bergman) before he tries to find his bride who is upstairs in her room.

A NEW ABBOTT
Back in Sally’s room, eventually Adam asks Sally (who is deep in labor), if she thought she was having a girl or boy, and she said a boy. But then, Adam introduced her to her “beautiful, perfect baby girl.” It was a moment laced with so much history for Adam and Sally and Adam and Billy, when you think of the deaths of Ava and Deliah.
As Sally cradled her newborn little bundle of joy, Adam went to go get Billy at her request, and as he made his way to the door, Billy was standing there. Billy is stunned to see his rival standing, but then Sally tells Billy to meet his daughter!
Billy rushes to the bedside to be my his new wife and daughter, with the heartbreaking final shot of Adam emotionally overcome thinking of the baby he has lost with Sally. and how he wishes things could have turned out differently in a bittersweet moment.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Finn Blows a Gasket After Steffy Reveals She’s Gone Ahead and Become Carter and Daphne’s Surrogate

On the Monday, October 19 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, after Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) stammering around and trying to find a way to couch her lie to her husband, Finn (Tanner Novlan), she finally admits what she has been dreading telling him.
But not before, Finn and Steffy rehash Monaco, Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown), and how it was turning point in their lives (that’s an understatement) with Finn reiterating, “Our marriage is precious. What we have is pure and true.”
Finn promises Sheila is out of their lives for good, and Steffy chokes back tears saying how she wished she hadn’t removed her ring and hightailed it out of Monaco. She says she wishes she could take that back, but she can’t.

Steffy tells Finn she has a lot to say. Finn tells her there is nothing they can’t overcome. Steffy says she made a significant decision while he was away. She goes to to say what a great friend Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) has been to her. Finn asks if Daphne and Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) are still interviewing to find a surrogate? Steffy says they found someone and the process has begun, and its “me.”
Finn gulps, “What do you mean it’s you?” Steffy eeks out of her mouth, “I agreed to be Daphne and Carter’s surrogate.” Finn, who is a doctor no less says, “I don’t understand!” He explains he knows there is a list of medical and legal hurdles someone has to go through before a woman can become a surrogate for a couple. He also tells Steffy he knows she could never carry a child and give it up.
Next, Finn tells Steffy she’s wonderful for considering to do this for Carter and Daphne, but she’ll have to tell them no. Steffy says it’s too late. That while he was out of town they went ahead with the procedure. Finn asks, “What procedure?” Steffy responds, “The fertilization of the eggs.” Finn learns they used Steffy’s frozen eggs and did the implantation and loses it!
“I can’t believe you went and did that! This isn’t something a wife does when their husband is out of town on a business trip,” hollers Finn. He cannot believe what he is hearing and that his wife just went and did this without him! He pushes back on Steffy. demanding answers, “There’s more going on here. What is it? Steffy? Tell me!” We fade to black.
You can check out the pivotal scene between Finn and Steffy below.
Now weigh-in: are you glad Finn is as of now not being a doofus? That he is pushy back on Steffy? Do you think Steffy will continue with this lie or admit she slept with Carter and became pregnant? Either way, would Finn stay with his wife while she became a surrogate for Carter and Daphne? Let us know in the comment section.
