Jackie Wood, who plays Steffy, has returned from maternity leave after welcoming her fifth child and has already been filming for weeks. That means Steffy will soon grace our screens again, and she’s walking into a maelstrom of family crises, shocking secrets, and personal reckonings. Here’s a look at the five major things Steffy is expected to do when she returns.

1. Reconnect with Finn

First and foremost, Steffy will want to reunite with her husband, Dr. John “Finn” Finnegan. Their separation has been hard on both of them, and Steffy’s absence—purportedly due to a need to decompress after the Liam shooting and the fake cancer revelation—was actually a cover for Jackie Wood’s maternity leave. Finn has been waiting anxiously, and now that Steffy is back, expect tender, emotional reunions. Hugs, kisses, and heartfelt confessions are on the agenda as the couple reconnects, especially with Kelly and Hayes in the mix.

But this reunion will not remain purely romantic for long. Finn faces the daunting task of revealing a shocking bombshell: Luna is alive. While Ridge might attempt to break the news first, he has recently expressed reluctance to shatter Steffy’s peace of mind. Regardless of who delivers the devastating revelation, the moment Luna’s survival is confirmed, Steffy’s joy will be ripped away, leaving Finn and Steffy to navigate the immediate fallout. The return of “lunatic” Luna promises to strain Steffy’s emotional state and put Finn in a difficult position as a husband and protector.

2. Confront Lee Finnegan

Next on Steffy’s agenda: confronting Finn’s mother, Dr. Lee Finnegan. Lee, like many others in the Forrester-Finnegan clan, has kept secrets in the name of protection. While Steffy has praised Lee for helping Finn recover from a previous attack by Sheila, learning that Lee also aided Luna—keeping her alive and away from justice—will infuriate Steffy.

The stakes are even higher when Steffy discovers that Luna is pregnant with Will’s child. This revelation will amplify her horror, as she worries for the safety of her loved ones, including Katie, Will, Finn, and Electra. Steffy’s fury will likely extend toward Bill Spencer too, whose actions helped keep Luna free, and Poppy, who is partly responsible for Luna’s place in their lives.

3. Take Action Against Luna

Once fully briefed on the situation, Steffy is expected to take decisive action. Her primary goal? Ensure Luna is returned to prison immediately, regardless of her pregnancy. Steffy will likely attempt to restore order, protect her family, and remove any lingering threat Luna poses. It’s a morally complex decision—allowing Luna to carry her child while confined, with the hope that the baby will be raised safely by someone stable and loving—but Steffy is driven by a fierce sense of justice and protection for those she loves.

Steffy’s determination to remove Luna from her family’s lives is unflinching. She will stop at nothing to prevent further chaos, which will undoubtedly create high-stakes confrontations and emotional turbulence for all involved.

4. Deal with Ridge’s Betrayal

Steffy’s return isn’t just about external threats—family drama awaits her at home as well. She must confront the shocking betrayal of her father, Ridge Forrester. Fans know that Steffy expected to see her parents, Ridge and Taylor, find happiness together, but instead, Ridge has broken Taylor’s heart and remarried Brooke immediately after ending his relationship with Taylor.

This betrayal will ignite Steffy’s protective instincts. Expect fiery confrontations, harsh words, and possibly a public showdown as she expresses her anger at Ridge for shattering Taylor’s trust and disregarding family loyalty. Steffy will also be there to comfort her mother, standing by her side as Taylor navigates the heartbreak and betrayal.

5. Reconnect with Liam and the Future

Finally, Steffy will want to touch base with Liam Spencer, catching up on his life since the chaotic events surrounding Dr. Grace Buckingham’s fake cancer storyline. Thankfully, Liam is doing well, and his relationship with Hope is rekindling, which is likely to bring Steffy relief. She never approved of Hope’s relationship with Carter, and seeing Hope and Liam back together will restore some balance to her perception of the Forrester family’s romantic dynamics.

Steffy will also take time to appreciate other positive developments, including the reinstatement of the Hope for the Future line at Forrester Creations. While other storylines are rife with drama, this revival will provide a glimmer of hope and a moment of levity amidst the chaos.

The Road Ahead

Steffy’s return promises to be a whirlwind of drama, emotion, and high-stakes confrontation. From her reunion with Finn to grappling with Ridge’s betrayal, from confronting Lee about Luna to taking decisive action to protect her family, Steffy’s homecoming is shaping up to be one of the most intense arcs in recent Bold and the Beautiful history. Add in Luna’s shocking survival and pregnancy, and viewers can expect suspense, heated arguments, and emotional turmoil as Steffy fights to restore order in a world turned upside down.

Fans can rest assured that Jackie Wood’s return will deliver all the intensity, passion, and complexity we’ve come to expect from Steffy. The next few episodes will not just explore familial loyalty, justice, and love—they will test Steffy’s resilience and reveal how far she will go to protect the people she loves.

Stay tuned, because Steffy’s back, and she’s ready to shake Los Angeles to its core. Expect romance, betrayal, and revenge all rolled into one dramatic return that will keep fans on the edge of their seats.
