Sheila Carter or Paris Buckingham, which ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’ lady is a bigger threat to Steffy Forrester?

Steffy is The Bold and the Beautiful‘s top heroine. After dealing with heartache, she finally found happiness with Dr. John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan). However, the newlyweds might end up splitting. Of course, the couple’s main issue is Finn’s mother, Sheila. Given Sheila’s dangerous past, Steffy doesn’t want her anywhere near her family. Finn seemed torn at first, but since then, he sided with Steffy in the matter. This has undoubtedly angered mama Sheila, who wants revenge against Steffy.

Although Steffy is more concerned about Sheila, it’s Paris Buckingham (Diamond White) she needs to keep an eye on. The new houseguest has become a confidante to Finn, and it’s obvious Paris is crushing on the handsome doctor. With Paris’ bond with Finn growing more potent, she might find herself competing with Steffy for his affections.

Will Finn learn the truth about his birth dad?

Finn’s life has been thrown for a loop upon discovering Sheila is his birth mother. However, he’s still in the dark about his biological father. The Bold and the Beautiful viewers already know Finn’s adopted dad Jack Finnegan (Ted King), is also his birth dad.

Jack and Sheila’s affair led to Finn’s birth. Jack and his wife Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda) adopted Finn, but Li was unaware her husband was the child’s father. Sheila is using Jack’s secret as blackmail to worm her way into Finn’s life. Jack’s secret remains safe; however, eventually, it’s bound to come out. So will he be the one to confess? Or will Sheila do the honors?

Which Logan sister will cure Eric Forrester’s problem?

The Bold and the Beautiful veteran character Eric Forrester (John McCook) is back on the front burner due to his recent storyline with Quinn Fuller (Rena Sofer) and Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor). Eric and Quinn were experiencing intimacy issues, which led to her affair with Carter. Eric eventually confessed to his wife he has erectile dysfunction and came up with a plan. Since he couldn’t be intimate with Quinn, he’s asking Carter to step in.
