Deacon is a man caught between trust issues and tangled love stories on The Bold and the Beautiful. After Sheila didn’t immediately tell him that Luna was alive, Deacon found himself talking things through with Taylor — yes, as a therapist — hoping to sort out why his heart keeps landing him in dangerous waters. But as Deacon opened up on-screen, fans are opening up online too, debating whether his romantic past or his messy present is where his future belongs. One fan’s post lit up social media and set off a passionate dialogue.
Key Takeaways
- Deacon opened up to Taylor about his trust issues with Sheila, sparking fan debates online.
- One fan’s post about Deacon and Taylor’s past chemistry tests set off a passionate conversation.
- Sheacon loyalists argued that Deacon and Sheila were the only consistent spark during “dark days” on the show.
- Others pointed out the earlier Deacon/Taylor dynamic and wondered if that door might open again.
- Sheila’s warning to Taylor in the aired clip added fuel to the fire on social media.
- Fans quickly took sides — some fiercely defending Sheila, others rooting for Taylor.
Sheacon vs. Deacon and Taylor
The conversation started with @Robansuefarm, who wrote, “They did chemistry test Deacon/Taylor before they did Sheacon. I liked it. If Sheacon hadn’t been the 1 interesting thing on the show during some dark days I might enjoy Deacon/Taylor, but I don’t want to give up Sheacon. I don’t think we have a 2nd string. #BoldandBeautiful.”
They followed up, sharing more thoughts on why Sheacon became such a defining pairing. They posted, “I don’t mean they can’t ever break up or that I think they are a fated, great, romantic couple or anything. But they are interesting on a day in, day out basis. Who else on the show that they actually shown right now that is 100% interesting day to day?”
Others chimed in quickly as one responded, “But that was with KA’s Taylor.” The original poster agreed, adding, “That is true, but it does mean they were showing an interest in going there before. Which actually made a lot more sense at the time they were testing. We’ll have to see.” And another viewer gave their take: “They can never give sheila a break like deacon should be mad but to expect her to abandon the one family member that acknowledged her 😭.”
Sheila Draws a Line
Elsewhere on X, a clip of Sheila warning Taylor to stay away from Deacon got people just as fired up. The fan’s caption summed it up bluntly: “Sheila tells Taylor no one is coming between Deacon and her.”
That was all it took. One follower declared, “I am team Sheila and if Saint Taylor goes after Deacon I hope Sheila gives her hell. Maybe Taylor can f**k off to Europe.” Another viewer wasn’t pulling punches either, countering with, “She kra kra, Taylor. Drop him!”
The debate quickly turned into a full-on shipping war — Sheacon loyalists on one side, Taylor hopefuls on the other, with plenty of passion in the mix. It’s exactly the kind of fan energy that proves Deacon’s love life still has B&B viewers interested.
