B&B Murder Mystery EXPOSED: Bold and Beautiful Leak – Brad Bell Reveals Massive Twist
Bold and the Beautiful showrunner Brad Bell recently did an interview and leaked a spoilery tidbit that we’re getting a murder mystery on B&B. That sounds kind of bizarre because it’s a fashion-led soap and they usually don’t do murderous stuff, especially with Luna Nozawa gone and Sheila Carter reformed.
We’re going to share with you what Brad Bell said and who might be the victim of this leaked murder mystery plot if it manifests.
Bold and the Beautiful: Brad Bell’s Murder Mystery Tease
So recently, Bold and the Beautiful showrunner Brad Bell appeared on Rebecca Budig and Greg Rikaart’s podcast. So Rebecca currently plays Taylor Hayes on B&B and Greg Rikaart is on Days of Our Lives as Leo Stark, but he was also on Y&R as Kevin Fischer for a long time. Rebecca Budig said one of the things that she loves about acting on a soap is that they get to do a little bit of everything.
And she talked about laughing and crying and anger. And Brad Bell agreed and said, “You’re doing a murder mystery now and then something campy and ridiculous.” So, the big question is, were Rebecca Budig and Brad Bell talking about a real plot they’re doing now or was he just rattling off examples? I mean, it really caught my ear and it sounds kind of fun.
B&B Drops Huge Hint!
So, we are going to talk about what kind of murder mystery that B&B might do if they are doing it. Plus, the day before Brad Bell’s appearance on the CBS sponsored podcast that Rebecca Budig hosts, the B&B Instagram account dropped a murderous tidbit as well.
We’re going to show you a couple of scenes from this little Insta video they did. It showed Sheila Carter actress Kimberlin Brown jogging up some stairs and flipping through a script looking at what’s next for Sheila. And then she poured a martini and then she was really smirking. So, the words across the screen read Kimberlin warming up to kill in her scenes with kill in all caps and the caption on the post was don’t say we didn’t warn you.
So yeah, maybe we are getting something murderous. I mean it’s been a minute since they’ve had this sort of drama. The last time they killed off somebody was homeless Tom and bartender Hollis. And the main murder mystery of course was about Tom. And it turned out that Luna did it. But this time, we might get somebody else doing murder stuff. I mean, it would be stunning if they killed off a main character. Tom was a disposable character that they brought in specifically to kill off. And Hollis was a glorified extra. He was killed off, too. But never say never.
Bold and Beautiful: Who Could Die in a Murder Mystery?
Let’s talk about who could die. Now, first off, Brad Bell said something happens in Monaco that is life-changing. That was in a different interview. And those Monaco episodes kick off on July 29th. We know Sheila is stalking Finn Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) and Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) follows them to Monaco. And with that and the hint about killing in her scenes, Sheila might be involved because murder certainly is life-changing. If Brad Bell was dropping a real hint, then Sheila being involved makes absolute sense. She’s very upset about losing Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) to Taylor and Sheila’s desperate to be back in Finn’s life, but he told her Steffy will never agree.
So, one possibility is that Sheila stages her own death and frames Taylor. Now, we’ve seen Sheila claim that she’s changed and people are starting to believe it. Finn, actually, Taylor and Deacon, but that doesn’t mean it’s true. And if Sheila can’t have Deacon and can’t have Finn in her life, then she may want to punish Taylor for stealing her husband and punish others. So, Sheila faking her death would actually punish Taylor and Steffy and Deacon because Taylor would lose her freedom. Steffy would lose her mom and Deacon would lose his companion.
B&B: Sheila Fakes her Own Death?
And then Sheila could go off and start a new life somewhere new, knowing that she’s left chaos behind her. And let’s face it, Sheila has already faked her death several times, so it wouldn’t be something new. Now, related to that, she might want a different kind of payback. She might fake Taylor’s death instead of her own.
Maybe you remember, if you were watching back then, it was in the Hunter Tylo days. I think it was 1994, but Taylor was presumed dead in a plane crash and she had amnesia and Prince Omar saw Taylor, thought she was beautiful, hid her away at his palace and then Omar fell in love with her. And that wasn’t her only presumed death involving Omar. Because in 2002, Taylor was again presumed dead. That was when Sheila shot both Taylor and Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang).
And Omar stole Taylor away and had a dummy buried in her coffin. And that time she was gone for three years until Taylor was revealed to be alive in like I think 2005. So, Sheila could contact Prince Omar and tell him he should come snatch Taylor again and Sheila could work with Omar to stage a death scene to get rid of Taylor.
That way Omar gets Taylor and Sheila might get Deacon back if Taylor is dead and gone. But in any murder investigation with Taylor as the victim, Sheila would be a top suspect. However, if she was with Deacon at the time or somewhere public with lots of witnesses, then Sheila would have an airtight alibi and could get away with it. I mean, it’s not unbelievable that B&B would sideline Taylor or repeat this plot.
Bold and the Beautiful: RJ Needs to Go!
Now, speaking of killing off front burner characters, I think top on the list of ones that fans would like to see the subject of a murder mystery is R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti). He is so unbelievably annoying that fans might cheer if he was off. But if something happened to Ridge Forrester‘s (Thorsten Kaye) son, of course, Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) would be the top suspect, especially since Ridge has been going on and on about how violent and dangerous Will is.
So, if something happened to his precious R.J., you bet. Ridge would point the finger at Will. And of course, R.J. dying would make the Spencer and Forrester feud explode. Now, I don’t think Will would kill R.J. ever. But something might happen where it appears that Will hurt R.J. and it’s just bad timing and assumptions and then, you know, Ridge Jr. turns up alive. But that’s fine, too.
Remy Killed Off B&B?
Another person who’s pretty disposable on Bold and the Beautiful at this point is Remy. I could definitely see him getting killed off. Everybody hates Deke’s (Harrison Cone) ex for those deep fakes he made to torment Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace). But the only bad thing is Remy might set up his own death, fake it, and try to frame Deke to punish him for refusing to get back with him. One of those, if you can’t be with me, you can’t be with anybody scenarios.
Bold and the Beautiful: Miss Dylan Murdered?
Now, one last person I could see in a murder mystery is Miss Dylan (Sydney Bullock). She’s getting close to Will again now that Electra confirmed to Dylan she cannot be with Will because of Ridge’s insane and inappropriate ultimatum. But if something happened to Dylan after she got back with Will, Electra could be a suspect, especially if she threatens Dylan that she needs to stay away from Will and somebody overhears it.
However, I don’t think Electra would ever physically harm Dylan, but a not so dead Luna would totally do it. That would be a really fun twist. She could stage a murder scene and either really kill Dylan or make it look like she’s been killed and then Luna plants evidence to implicate Electra.
Because in Luna’s crazy head, that would leave Will available for her. With Dylan dead or gone and Electra locked up for her murder. That’s perfect. Then Luna can creep up and grab Will for herself. So, we’ll see if this murder mystery manifests or if Brad Bell was just teasing fans. I’d be totally down for it if they take out an annoying character that fans would like to see gone. I think it could be a lot of fun.
