The Bold and the Beautiful Comings and Goings: Steffy’s grief-driven exit and Nick Marone’s unexpected return promise drama in B&B. With emotional turmoil and business chaos brewing, the casting changes this week will push familiar characters into bold new chapters.
Jacqueline MacInnes Wood Exits As Steffy Forrester Goes Off the Grid
Jacqueline MacInnes Wood has stepped away as Steffy Forrester, starting her maternity leave this week. Steffy’s emotional breakdown over Luna’s death pushed her to leave Los Angeles.
After a heartfelt conversation with Liam, she made it clear that the chaos had become too much. Her children needed peace—and so did she. That means a temporary exit for one of the show’s most powerful women.
Steffy has left town for now, but fans should expect her return later this year. The storyline gives her space while honoring the weight of Luna’s loss and the tension with Finn.
The Bold and the Beautiful Comings and Goings: Jack Wagner Returns As Nick Marone Joins the Italy Arc
Jack Wagner is back as Nick Marone, stirring old memories and fresh tension on The Bold and the Beautiful. His character will re-enter the canvas during Brooke, Ridge, and Eric’s business trip to Italy.
Though Nick’s exact motive isn’t clear, his arrival is no coincidence. His presence may revive history with Brooke or even bring surprises on the business front. Longtime fans will remember Nick’s complicated past—and Ridge won’t like this new twist.
Jack Wagner’s return isn’t permanent, but it’s part of a multi-episode arc. His character will cause friction as alliances shift during the Forrester Creations’ overseas expansion.
So far, no additional casting announcements have been made for this week. However, with Steffy gone and Nick in Italy, the door is wide open for more character shuffling.
The show often keeps surprise appearances under wraps. Don’t be shocked if a fan-favorite pops in or if a minor character takes the spotlight while Steffy’s offscreen. Fans can also expect longer scenes for characters like Brooke, Ridge, Eric, and even Hope—who may now get pulled deeper into the storylines left behind.
That wraps up The Bold and the Beautiful comings and goings for the week of July 28, 2025. With Steffy’s exit and Nick’s return, the show is shifting gears fast. For all your soap updates, keep watching Soap Opera Daily. See you next time!
