Jackie Wood will give birth soon

The Bold and the Beautiful actress Jackie MacInnes Wood (Steffy Forrester) is about to give birth to her fifth child. She has four sons: Rise Harlen, born on March 4, 2019; Lenix, born on February 21, 2021; Brando Elion, born in May 2022; and Valor, born in August 2023, with her husband, Elan Ruspoli.

Fans are wondering how her character Steffy will leave LA. In the past, Mrs. Finn has been in a coma, kidnapped, and fled to Paris. Some viewers thought Ste might travel with Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) to search for a cancer cure or take her children and run far away from Sheila Carter Sharpe (Kimberlin Brown) and Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada).

Another boy or a girl?

B&B fans believe Luna might try to get rid of her mother-in-law so she can spend time with John Finnegan (Tanner Novlin). The theory is that Steffy will flee LA while the soap vet is on maternity leave. The popular actress has shared many images of her pregnant body but has not said whether she knows the sex of her baby or if she hopes it will be a girl.

B&B fans, however, believe she is about to give birth to a female child and may have given a hint with the name. Sometimes people do that. A former pastor of mine and his wife were going to have their third child. One day, when a young man had not joined the church, the pastor asked his name, and he said, " Michael, one of the most powerful names in the universe."

He was probably thinking about the archangel. Later, he told the church leaders that "the two Michaels," my husband and son, were loyal and dependable. When his son was born, he was named Michael. This does not indicate that Steffy Forrester's portrayer has given her followers a teaser about her baby's name and sex, but it could.

Did Jackie Wood give B&B fans a clue?

Wood shared an Instagram post and a poem with her fans during the Easter holiday. The actress began with “A new season, a fresh start. Grace in full bloom.”

"Let this Easter be a reminder that light always returns even after the longest winters. May your heart be lifted, your spirit renewed, and your path guided with purpose and peace. Here’s to new beginnings and the blessings ahead.”

The post contained images of Wood and the hashtags “#EasterReflections, #FaithOverFear, [and] #GraceInBloom.” This has led some followers to deduce that the baby is a girl and will be named Grace. We will know for sure in time what happens to Steffy and also the details about Wood's fifth child. But for now, B&B viewers are eagerly waiting.

Be on the lookout for updates related to Jackie MicInnes Wood and her baby. Keep watching The Bold and the Beautiful to find out how and why Steffy leaves LA and if Luna plays a role in her exit.

    This article about Jackie Wood's upcoming birth is interesting. It makes me wonder how they'll write Steffy's departure on the show. I remember when a character on another soap had a major exit during the actress's real-life pregnancy. It was handled well. Do you think they'll come up with a creative way to explain Steffy's absence like that? Also, the name theory is fun. It makes me think about how real-life events can sometimes inspire storylines. I'm curious to see if there's any truth to the idea that Steffy's baby's name could be a hint. What do you think are the chances of that?
