What Happened Previously on B&B
When Deacon (Sean Kanan) learned that Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) kept the huge secret that Luna (Lisa Yamada) was alive, he felt devastated. He’d believed Sheila had truly changed, but her hiding the truth really shook him to his core.
Deacon turned to Taylor (Rebecca Budig) for help. She counseled him. However, they crossed the line from professional to personal. Taylor tried to step back, but ultimately, she couldn’t, and they kept seeing each other.
Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) realized what was going on between Deacon and Taylor, and she tried to enlist Hope (Annika Noelle) to help her put a stop to it before Sheila found out. Shockingly, Hope was thrilled to see her dad seemingly moving on from Shelia. She didn’t want to put a stop to it, and instead, she wanted to encourage the new relationship, which made Steffy fear for her family’s safety.
