On The Bold and the Beautiful, February 3, Deacon confessed his feelings for Taylor. He admitted that he couldn’t live without her, no matter what her daughter says.
Key Takeaways
- Deacon and Taylor agreed to be together, no matter what it takes.
- The couple reaffirmed their love for each other.
- Now, they have to figure out how they’re going to make this romance work.
Deacon Doesn’t Divorce Sheila
Deacon (Sean Kanan, who was named Soap Hub’s Performer of the Month for January) was close to breaking up with Sheila (Kimberlin Brown), but he got choked up by her meat cleaver. Taylor (Rebecca Budig) called Deacon and told him she needed to see him as soon as possible. Deacon agreed to meet her at Steffy’s (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), even though she set a hard line in the sand with her mother.
Once Deacon arrived, Taylor explained that Steffy threatened to ditch her unless she let go of him. Taylor admitted that she can’t let go of her daughter and grandkids, but she couldn’t risk losing Deacon either.
The couple reaffirmed their love for one another. They wondered how they could make this work. They were so overcome by passion that they almost made love at Steffy’s place. But Deacon promised her that it would happen at a better place and a better time.
Why Deacon Has Fallen for Taylor
In their raw, candid conversation, Deacon spoke about his complicated past. He admitted that he has a long scar on his stomach from committing one of his many crimes. Taylor admitted that she has a past as well.
But she can see how much he’s changed. Deacon told Taylor the one thing that she’s done that Sheila could never do. “Nobody has ever made me feel seen the way that you do,” he shared.
“Not even Sheila?” Taylor wondered. Deacon shook his head before saying, “Sheila didn’t flinch when she saw the bad in me, but you only see the good.”
What’s Next For Deacon and Taylor?
Deacon’s learned to move forward with his past. He wears that scar as armor. Now, he wants to let his guard down around Taylor. But will they be able to make their love work? The odds are stacked against them.
Steffy threatened Taylor, saying she would disown her if this relationship happened. In the meantime, Deacon could lose his head once Sheila finds out. Or maybe it will be Taylor who has more to lose in the end.
