Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Sheila Carter Gloats to Taylor Hayes About Deacon Sharpe After Their Kiss
Will Sheila gloat to Taylor about Deacon? Spoilers say Sheila Carter keeps after him once the kiss lands, while he weighs telling Taylor.
SHEILA CARTER STOLE A KISS FROM DEACON, AND NOW SHE MAY WANT TAYLOR TO HEAR ALL ABOUT IT
TL;DR: Spoilers say Sheila Carter gloats to Taylor about Deacon after she kisses him on Thursday, November 5, and keeps after him the week of November 9. Deacon may keep the kiss a secret. Who gets to Taylor first?
Thursday’s Kiss Starts the Race to Taylor
Will Sheila gloat to Taylor about Deacon? The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for the week of November 9 tease that she might, once Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) plants a kiss on Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) that he never saw coming. The tease says Sheila keeps working to win her ex-husband back and could gloat to Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) about their reconnection. Deacon, meanwhile, may decide Taylor is better off not knowing.
It starts Thursday, November 5. Deacon owes Sheila a favor, and she shows up to collect. “In lieu of payment, there is something that I would really like,” she tells him in the promo, then pulls him into a kiss that takes him by surprise. She even lifts her leg to show him her missing toes, and by Friday she is stirring up memories he thought were buried. It is the same kiss with a plan we flagged on October 31, and now it has a date.
So the clock starts. Deacon can tell Taylor himself and take the heat, or he can stay quiet and hope Sheila does too. Anyone who has watched Sheila for more than a week knows how that second option usually ends.
Should Deacon confess the kiss to Taylor before Sheila beats him to it? Write to me at amber@soapoperamagazine.com and tell me what you would do.
Sheila Has Been Watching This Couple Since April
This isn’t Sheila’s first look at Deacon and Taylor. On April 9 she told Deacon, “I’ll be back. This isn’t over for us, Deacon.” The next night she stood outside his apartment and watched through the blinds as he kissed Taylor. Their divorce went final on July 9, but the woman at the window never really left.
Then Taylor handed her a weapon. On August 12 in Monaco, Taylor turned down Deacon’s proposal: “Marriage? I just don’t think we need to do this.” By September 21, Sheila Carter was needling him about it at the Bikini Bar, and on September 23 Taylor objected to the time he was spending with his ex. Head writer Bradley Bell said in a September interview that the rejection would bother Deacon and that he would keep hoping for a marriage, and Sheila knows exactly where that bruise is.
The tease for next week presses right on it. Spoilers also have Sheila pushing Deacon to leave Taylor and come back to her. A kiss gets his attention. A brag to Taylor could finish the job.

Does Deacon Tell Taylor That Sheila Kissed Him on Bold and the Beautiful?
Nobody knows yet. The previews for November 9 to 13 hedge on both sides: Sheila might gloat, and Deacon may keep the secret. No preview has Deacon confessing, and none has Taylor finding out. That leaves the week wide open, and it leaves Deacon sitting on a secret in the very week Taylor is demanding one from her daughter.
That is the twist that makes this delicious. On Wednesday, Taylor sat across from Steffy Forrester Finnegan (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and refused to swallow her surrogacy story. “I want to know what’s really going on,” she said, and on Thursday she keeps pushing Steffy to come clean. The woman insisting on the whole truth at the cliff house may be the last to hear the truth about her own man. If Sheila Carter is the one who tells her, she gets the kiss and the look on Taylor’s face.
Taylor Has Every Reason to Doubt Sheila
Here is the catch for Sheila. Taylor is a psychiatrist, and Sheila once threatened Taylor’s life. If Sheila walks up gloating, Taylor’s first instinct may be to call it a lie. Don’t be surprised if Deacon’s face does the confessing for him.
There is a bigger danger too. Sheila is the biological mother of John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan), Steffy’s husband, and she has spent months trying to get back inside Finn’s family. Any face-off with Taylor puts her one door away from the cliff house, where Taylor’s daughter is guarding the biggest secret in town. As far as anyone has seen, Sheila knows nothing about it. Could one fight with Taylor change that?
My gut tells me Deacon waits too long. Sheila Carter did not kiss him so it could stay a secret between the two of them.

Who should Taylor hear it from, Deacon or Sheila? Make your case in the comments.

Deacon’s Silence Is Sheila’s Best Weapon
Sheila doesn’t need Deacon to cheat. She needs him to hesitate. Every day he keeps that kiss from Taylor, the story gets uglier when it finally comes out, and Sheila gets to be the one who sounds honest for once.
We say Deacon should tell Taylor before the weekend, and we bet he doesn’t. Is it Team Deacon confesses or Team Sheila spills it first? Tell us on our Facebook page.
