Drama is always a given on The Bold and the Beautiful, but one particular storyline has fans recoiling in disgust. The theory that Finn (Tanner Novlan) could be Luna’s (Lisa Yamada) biological father has sparked intense reactions, with many fans calling it not only “icky” but also deeply unsettling. Here’s a closer look at the wild fan theories and why some think this twist might just be too much for viewers to stomach.
The Theory: Could Finn Be Luna’s Dad?
In the latest Bold and the Beautiful plotline, Li is on the verge of finding out the truth about who fathered her niece Luna. Jack, her husband, insists he could never have been involved with his sister-in-law Poppy (Romy Park), but Li insists on a paternity test, which has led fans to speculate wildly. One prominent fan theory has pointed to Finn, Li’s son, as Luna’s potential father.
But this theory has left many fans uncomfortable. According to the math, Finn would have been around 15 years old when Luna was conceived, which, as one fan put it, could be classified as statutory rape. “If Finn was Luna’s dad, he’d have been 15 at the time of conception. Yuck,” said one viewer on X (formerly Twitter).
The Math Doesn’t Add Up—But It’s Still Awful
A quick look at the ages of the actors involved shows that Tanner Novlan (Finn) is currently 38, while Lisa Yamada (Luna) is 22, making it plausible that Finn could have been in his mid-teens at the time Luna was born. Although the theory isn’t completely far-fetched, fans are quick to point out the creepy implications of such a storyline. Many feel that it would be morally and emotionally disturbing, considering Finn would have been a teenager at the time.
“I can’t even imagine how awkward and wrong this would be if they went there,” said one fan, expressing the consensus that this plot twist would be too much for most viewers to handle.
Fan Reactions: A Wave of Disgust
As soon as the theory began circulating, fans took to social media to express their horror. Some posted hilarious memes and clips to show just how wild this storyline would be. One fan posted a scene from Saturday Night Live in which Barbie reveals to her sister Skipper that she’s actually her mother, captioning it, “EXCLUSIVE: Luna finds out Finn is her new daddy.” The caption perfectly encapsulated the bizarre and surreal nature of the potential reveal.
The reactions didn’t stop there. Another fan shared a gif from Dumb and Dumber of Jim Carrey’s character nearly vomiting, saying, “Soooo, is Luna’s father Finn????” This fan sentiment was echoed across Twitter, with many stating they would seriously consider stopping watching if this turned out to be the truth.
The Final Verdict: Fans Hope the Show Won’t Go There
The overwhelming sentiment among Bold and the Beautiful fans is that this theory crosses a line. Several viewers even called out the show’s creator, Bradley Bell, warning that if this paternity twist becomes reality, it could cost the show viewers. “Bradley Bell is sick enough to make Finn Luna’s father,” wrote one fan, adding to the general outcry.
As the paternity mystery continues to unfold, fans are hoping that the writers will steer clear of this deeply uncomfortable direction. One thing’s for sure: if Finn turns out to be Luna’s father, it will leave viewers not only shocked, but deeply disturbed. And for many, it might be the final straw.
