Steffy Forrester vs. Sheila Carter is the next epic feud on ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’

Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) has been an enemy of the Forrester family for over two decades. She’s inflicted harm on various family members throughout the years, and when the Forresters think they’re rid of her, Sheila returns. Her latest return already has the family on edge, including Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), who discovered Sheila is her new mother-in-law.

Steffy’s already made it known Sheila’s not welcomed anywhere near her family. However, that didn’t stop Sheila from seeing her son Dr. John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) and her grandson Hayes (Samantha Worden). When Steffy discovered Sheila inside her home, things became tense between the two women, resulting in Steffy slapping Sheila. That moment sent fans reeling and helped further develop the ongoing rivalry between the characters.

Steffy’s fight with Sheila proved she’s just like her grandmother and namesake Stephanie. Like her granddaughter, Stephanie had her showdowns with Sheila. One of the most pivotal moments in The Bold and the Beautiful history had Sheila shooting Stephanie before going on the lam with daughter Mary Warwick (Courtnee Draper).

Now, it’s Steffy’s turn to do battle with Sheila. Steffy’s shown she’s a tough woman and has her grandmother’s fighting spirit. She’s not afraid of Sheila and isn’t going to let her mother-in-law intimidate her. Steffy’s recent altercation with Sheila had viewers cheering for their favorite heroine. On Reddit, fans voiced their support for Steffy. “Would make her Grandma Stephanie proud,” wrote one user.
