‘You’re NOT My Daughter! Finn’s CRUEL Words to Luna! Sheila’s Breakdown WILL SHOCK YOU!

Bold and the Beautiful Recap & Spoilers | April 17, 2025: Sheila’s Rage Returns, Liam Fights On, and Luna Faces Rejection

Welcome back, Bold fans. Today’s episode of The Bold and the Beautiful was packed with emotion, secrets, and the explosive return of Sheila Carter’s darker side. As tensions rise between families and loyalties are tested, we dive deep into the drama surrounding Liam, Luna, Finn, and the entire Forrester circle.

Liam’s Battle: A Quiet Fight With Loud Consequences

Despite a grim diagnosis, Liam Spencer continues to fight for his life—and for his daughter. With Bridget Forrester and Finn overseeing his recovery, he’s slowly improving, though his condition remains critical. After Finn departs the hospital, Liam shares a heartfelt moment with Steffy, expressing gratitude for her support and the capable hands he’s in.

But concern weighs heavily on Liam’s mind—specifically about Luna Nozawa being anywhere near Kelly. When Bridget’s reaction to Luna’s name reveals more than it should, Liam presses for answers. Steffy assures him that neither she nor Finn will ever allow Luna into their family, but Liam isn’t so sure.

“Finn’s a good man,” Liam tells Steffy. “Sometimes that’s his weakness. He’s not great at saying no to blood.”

Fatherhood Under Fire: Finn’s Inner Turmoil

John “Finn” Finnegan is torn. Though he insists Luna cannot be in his life, the emotional toll is evident. Lee, his adoptive mother, storms into his office to issue a stern warning:

“She’s Sheila’s granddaughter and Poppy’s daughter. That’s two strikes,” Lee snaps. “Luna can’t be part of your life. I mean it.”

Finn reflects on what could have been—if only Poppy had told him the truth sooner. But regret won’t rewrite the past, and Luna’s crimes—locking Steffy in a cage and the deaths of Tom and Hollis—remain unforgivable in his eyes.

Sheila’s Fury Awakens: A Grandmother on the Warpath

Elsewhere, Sheila Carter is done playing nice.

Despite Deacon’s warnings and Hope’s pleas to stay away from Luna, Sheila is once again scheming in secret. At Il Giardino, she comforts Luna, promising they’ll fight for her right to be part of Finn’s life.

“Steffy’s gone too far,” Sheila growls. “I won’t let her win. I will reunite my son and my granddaughter.”

Sheila’s facade is cracking. After a vicious verbal brawl with Poppy—complete with a slap across the face—her darker side is reemerging. The calm, composed Sheila of the past year is gone. And everyone should be afraid.

Luna’s Hope, Shattered

Luna dreams of having a father. Of finding family. She sees Finn as the man who could’ve been the dad she always longed for. But reality hits hard.

“He’s not my father,” she sobs after being rejected yet again. “Steffy will never let me into his life.”

And while Sheila reassures her that blood is stronger than rejection, Luna’s heartbreak is undeniable.

Hope and Deacon: Torn Between Love and Loyalty

At Brooke’s house, Hope warns Deacon to stay cautious around Sheila. She’s grateful that he chose their relationship over Luna’s but knows temptation is never far away.

“We’re talking about Sheila,” Hope reminds him. “Please don’t let her drag you down with her.”

Deacon agrees—barely. He knows Sheila’s connection to Luna is dangerous, but deep down, he still craves the family he’s always been denied.

Secrets, Paternity, and the Price of the Past

As all this unfolds, Bridget and Grace Buckingham may be on the verge of revealing something shocking about Liam’s condition—something even he doesn’t know. A new round of tests could point to a darker turn in his illness, even as Liam masks his fear with forced optimism.

Meanwhile, tensions continue to rise over Luna’s role in the family. Despite her being biologically connected to Finn, neither Lee nor Steffy is willing to accept her presence. But how long can Finn hold out against the pull of paternal guilt?

Why Steffy Should Watch Her Back

All signs point to Steffy being in serious danger:

1. Sheila is slipping back into madness—and now has a partner in Luna.

2. She’s the only one standing between Finn and Luna.

3. Sheila and Luna together could be a deadly combination.

4. Jacqueline MacInnes Wood’s upcoming maternity leave may spell a dramatic twist for Steffy’s character—possibly a kidnapping, coma, or sudden disappearance.

Coming Up on The Bold and the Beautiful

• Bridget and Grace confront Finn with the truth about Liam’s condition.

• Sheila targets Poppy for revenge.

• Finn must choose between blood ties and the family he built with Steffy.

• Hope makes a dangerous move to protect her father.

• Steffy faces a shocking betrayal.

Stay tuned—this storm is just getting started. And not everyone will make it out unscathed.
