The Bold and the Beautiful throws a wrench into Poppyβs plans for a happy life. A conversation between Tom and Poppy reveals a shocking secret: Bill isnβt Lunaβs biological father. Apparently, Poppy was romantically involved with both Tom and Bill around the time Luna was conceived. Poppy, realizing Luna was Tomβs daughter, chose to lie and claim Bill as the father to secure a better life for herself and Luna. Now, Tom threatens to expose the truth, jeopardizing Poppyβs comfortable life with Bill.
Hereβs where things get messy. The DNA test results supposedly proving Billβs paternity were fabricated by Lee, who harbors a grudge against Poppy. Lee was manipulated by Bill, who intentionally altered the results. While Bill isnβt a bad guy, he clearly worried about the truth coming out. Poppy, on the other hand, seems genuinely unaware that Luna isnβt Billβs biological daughter.
Bill, however, has known the truth all along. Despite the lack of blood relation, he genuinely cares for Luna and wants her in his life. Poppyβs dream of a happy life with Bill hinges on Luna being his daughter. Bill, understanding this, orchestrated the fake DNA test to ensure their future together.
Now that Bill knows Tom is the real father, the situation gets even more complicated. Bill has legal rights to fight for custody of Luna, jeopardizing the peaceful life Poppy and Bill have built. Billβs desire for a happy family with Poppy motivates his actions, and heβs willing to resolve the situation, even if it means questionable tactics.
Rumors swirl that Bill might resort to bribing Tom with a large sum of money to leave the country and keep the secret buried. Tomβs history of homelessness suggests such a proposition could be tempting. Will Tom, desperate for a fresh start, abandon his daughter for a chance at wealth? The episode ends with this looming question, leaving viewers to speculate on Tomβs choice and the impact it will have on everyone involved.
