Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Daphne Rose Walton Kidnaps Steffy’s Baby and Runs in a Shocking Prediction

DAPHNE ROSE WALTON GRABS STEFFY’S NEWBORN AND RUNS IN ONE DARK PREDICTION, BUT THE SHOW KEEPS POINTING HER TO PARIS

TL;DR: A new prediction says Daphne will grab Steffy’s newborn and run once the surrogacy story falls apart. No spoiler backs it yet. On Monday, November 9, she is still defending the surrogacy to Ridge.

The Kidnapping Prediction Nobody Has Sourced

Will Daphne take Steffy’s baby? One rumor mill thinks so. A prediction that surfaced Sunday, November 8, says Daphne Rose Walton (Murielle Hilaire) could grab the newborn Steffy Forrester Finnegan (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) is carrying and run once the surrogacy story crumbles. It is a what if, posed as a question, with no air date, promo or insider behind it.

So let’s do what the gossip did not. The latest Bold and the Beautiful spoilers have Daphne trying to make an angry Ridge see the surrogacy from a different angle on Monday, November 9. Her take on the gift she believes Steffy is giving her may not cool anyone down. By Tuesday, Ridge is still grappling with his daughter’s decision.

Daphne has no idea what started all this. She believes Steffy is carrying her and Carter Walton‘s (Lawrence Saint-Victor) child out of friendship. She knows nothing about the night Steffy and Carter spent together on August 17, the night Steffy believes made this baby.

Would Daphne really run with a baby, or just run? Write to me at amber@soapoperamagazine.com and tell me which.

Why Daphne Wants This Baby So Badly

The want is real, and it aired. In July, Daphne learned she is infertile and told Carter, “I’m infertile. I can’t give you the family you want.” In October, Carter told her, “Steffy is our surrogate,” and Daphne has called Steffy a selfless friend.

Then Friday, November 6, she walked straight into the fire. Daphne told a panicking Carter, “You didn’t do anything wrong, Carter,” and went with him to the cliff house, where Ridge was demanding the truth. If you missed it, Ridge exploded at Carter in front of her, and she is still the only one in that room defending this surrogacy with a clear conscience.

That is what makes Daphne Rose Walton dangerous. She is not lying. She is the one person who will feel robbed when the truth lands, and the woman who plays her knows it. Hilaire told an interviewer in late October, “I think right now she really wants a baby, and so she’s going to do whatever she can to have that baby.”

Will Daphne Take Steffy’s Baby on Bold and the Beautiful?

Not on anything the show has aired or announced. No preview, promo or network line has Daphne taking the baby, and there is no baby to take. By the show’s own calendar, Steffy’s child is months from arriving. Here is our edge: the show has pointed Daphne Rose Walton at Paris three times this year, and the actress has wondered aloud whether the reveal costs her the baby, not the other way around.

Paris came up in January, when she said her future was there. On August 13 she announced she was going back to Paris, then was home by August 20, and on October 23 she recalled nearly leaving Carter to go back. The writers keep oiling that door. Hilaire put it plainly: “If everything is revealed, I don’t know if she’s going to be able to keep that baby.”

Who Daphne Punishes When the Story Breaks

My gut says Carter takes the first hit. He built the cover story, he lied to his wife, and he let her walk into Ridge’s rage beside him. Steffy is next, and Wood has already said, “Steffy deep down knows that she’s going to lose her best friend.” She also said “it’s going to be very difficult for her to give up her own child,” which tells you Daphne may be fighting Steffy for this baby long before she runs with it.

And there is a wild card. No paternity test has aired, and John Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) has never been ruled out as the father. Viewers are restless. On our Facebook page, one fan wondered how everyone around Steffy can be so naive, and another begged the show to just tell the truth already.

Could Daphne Rose Walton snap? Sure, this is daytime. But if I know these writers, Daphne’s breaking point looks like an airport, not a crib. Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) is already doing the surrogacy math on his daughter, and back in October the rumor mill had Daphne pregnant herself. It never happened.

Paris, the baby, or both? Tell us what Daphne does in the comments.

Daphne Runs, but Paris Is the Getaway Car

Daphne is the most wronged person in this whole mess, and wronged women on this show do not go quietly. But a kidnapping turns the only innocent party into a villain, and nothing on screen is building that. What is built is Paris, three times over, and an actress saying her character may lose the baby.

We say Daphne walks out on Carter and flies to Paris without the baby, and Steffy is left holding the child Wood says will be very hard for her to give up. Are you Team Daphne runs with the baby or Team Daphne runs to Paris? Tell us on our Facebook page.
