Things are about to get messy for Finn and Steffy as the truth behind Luna's paternity has been revealed. On Monday's episode of Bold and the Beautiful, Finn finally confirmed his suspicions—he is indeed Luna's biological father. Naturally, the doctor's in shock, especially now that his complicated past with Poppy has come back to haunt him.
Bold and the Beautiful Star Tanner Novlan Reacts to Finn's 'Messy' Plot Twist
In an interview with Us Weekly, Tanner Novlan admits Finn's latest plot twist is "definitely messy." The Bold and the Beautiful actor finds it interesting to go deeper into his character's past, revealing a side that viewers now see is far from squeaky clean.
Despite Finn's image taking a hit with the revelation of his past, Novlan is fully on board with the direction the storyline is taking. "This was a shocking and exciting twist, for sure," he adds.
While Novlan was surprised to learn Finn's backstory, he understands his character even more now. "I was surprised. But then again, going back to that time where Finn is at, that's where we get to be creative," the B&B star notes. "I mean, obviously he was in a tough mental space. We get to kind of fantasize about where he was at in his life at that time"
Novlan points out that Finn's troubled childhood is likely the reason why he's always wanted to create a perfect family for himself. But now, that perfect family with Steffy, Kelly, and Hayes might be in jeopardy—all thanks to Luna.
Will Finn Bring Luna into the Family?
It's only a matter of time before Luna finds out the truth about her father. The Bold and the Beautiful star hints that his character will end up telling Steffy and Li about the paternity test results.
When asked who's going to take the news harder — Steffy or Li — Novlan admits, "It's going to be close." The two ladies will likely do whatever it takes to stop Finn from reconnecting with Luna. But will he let that happen?
Novlan reveals Finn is torn between taking responsibility for his long-lost daughter and protecting his family. He knows Luna needs a father, but at the same time, he can't just forget about what she did to Steffy.
"He's prone to giving people second chances, but then she tried to kill his wife, you know?" Novlan adds. "And so I'm not sure how he's going to be able to navigate that with wanting to keep his family and his true love, Steffy, and his kids, safe and together. He hasn't forgotten that Luna has issues. So it's gonna be interesting to see how he navigates that because we all know Steffy's gonna draw a hard line in the sand."
Bold and the Beautiful: What's Next for Steffy and Finn?
So what happens next to Finn and Steffy? Will the beloved Bold and the Beautiful couple end up separating?
While Steffy and Finn's relationship is far from perfect, they're true soulmates. However, with everything that's going on, they'll definitely be put to the test.
"They really have a solid relationship, but there's all these external issues, like, pushing and pushing," Novlan explains. "And so you ask yourself the question of, 'Man, how long do you stay with someone, even though you love them, with all the external stressors around their life and drama?'"
Regardless of Sinn's fate, Novlan doesn't foresee any romantic rekindling between Finn and Poppy. In fact, the Bold and the Beautiful actor believes that Finn is "really embarrassed" by his past with Poppy.
"It's something that happened when he was young, and he knows it's wrong and was wrong, and now it's reared its head years later in the worst way," Novlan adds. "It's a mistake he made long ago that he's tried to forget about, but it's coming back to haunt him."
