Bold and the Beautiful left no mystery after Steffy Forrester came down hard with a huge, sharp knife into the chest of her mother-in-law on the CBS soap. Sheila Carter gurgled and sputtered blood as all the life drained out of her.
Some might say Steffy got her wish. She can now rest easy with Sheila Carter dead. But B&B spoilers hint that’s likely not the case for the Forrester daughter in the next two weeks.
Bold and the Beautiful: Steffy Forrester Killed Sheila Carter
Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) violently killed her mother-in-law. There’s no wiggle room here, Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) is dead. She can’t wake up in a hospital bed or have the paramedics bring her back to life.
No, that’s not going to happen, as Bold and the Beautiful scripted this as a permanent goodbye to one of daytime TV’s favorite villains. After decades of playing this character, Kimberlin Brown also weighed in regarding her emotions about the death of Sheila Carter. She was sad when learning that Sheila Carter’s reign of terror was over.
Bold and the Beautiful fans found this abrupt end to this long-time villain rather shocking. Usually, such a big storyline would go on for days, maybe even weeks. But no, the woman who spikes fear in those around her is dead. But now it looks as if Steffy Forrester is about to pay for this killing in several different ways.
B&B Spoilers: Steffy’s Words Circulate
Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) and Finn heard Sheila accuse Steffy of saying she couldn’t rest unless Sheila was in the grave. John Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) isn’t thrilled about those awful words of wanting her dead coming from his wife. He is also not happy that Steffy couldn’t leave well enough alone.
Bold and the Beautiful made sure that Steffy’s last words to her long-time enemy spread around. So, now it’s become common knowledge that Steffy told Sheila how life would be easier with her dead. But to the law, could this be misconstrued as pre-meditated murder?
As Finn said, his wife “poked the bear.” So, did she do this on purpose to push her enemy to come after her in a place where she’d be justified in killing her?
Think about it, this is Steffy Forrester’s mother-in-law that she killed. She didn’t brandish a weapon, although she did seem to go for something in her pocket. A prosecutor might be able to make a case out of this. Especially since Finn and Deacon told a few other folks about Steffy saying she would only rest with Sheila dead.
Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Steffy’s dad, Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) appeals to Lt. Baker (Dan Martin) at the end of this week. It could be because Steffy Forrester is in trouble for stabbing Sheila to death. But even if the law doesn’t look at Steffy as a criminal, and she sees no charges, her life likely gets very messy.
Bold and the Beautiful: Did Steffy Plan This?
Finn clarified his position regarding Steffy Forrester after she invaded Sheila and Deacon’s home. He told Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) that his wife knew how this woman could snap if she felt wronged. But she went there and riled her up anyway.
Finn and Hope discussed the possibility of his wife suffering from PTSD this week on Bold and Beautiful. So it’s likely it will be used as part of Steffy’s defense for killing Sheila if this ends up in court. It looks like Finn may start thinking that his wife baited his mother, intending to kill her. And… as the soap rolls on, maybe we find out that she did.
It’s possible this mother of two decided that she had no choice but to take matters into her own hands. So, she may have come up with a ploy to draw her mother-in-law to her home, where she’d be within her legal right to kill an intruder.
The Forrester daughter wasn’t at all surprised that Sheila was there. Steffy Forrester called out her name at the first sign of someone being in the house. Some Bold and the Beautiful fans seemed to side with Finn’s observations about Steffy almost asking for this.
B&B Spoilers: When a Wife Kills Her Husband’s Mother…
No matter what Steffy Forrester had in mind when riling up Sheila Carter, she hasn’t heard the end of it. She may not fear the nut job anymore. But it looks like the deceased woman still interferes in Steffy’s life from the grave. This whacked-out mother-in-law wanted her daughter-in-law gone out of her son’s life.
While it didn’t happen while she was alive, it looks as if in death, Sheila Carter may get her way. Finn may not say it to his wife, but he likely blames her on some level. Steffy Forrester instigated this by attacking her mother-in-law.
So, as Bold and the Beautiful rolls along, it looks like Steffy Forrester’s life becomes a mess. First, the home she loves now is the site of a grisly killing. Will she be able to carry on in that house without seeing Sheila’s bloody death scene in her mind’s eye?
What about her kids? If Kelly’s schoolmates get wind of her mother killing her grandmother, this could become horrific for the family. The repercussions of this killing could spread far and wide on the CBS soap.
