is Lisa Yamada leaving The Bold and the Beautiful?

July Sweeps will be intense this week on The Bold and the Beautiful when three lives hang in the balance. Fans know that Sheila Sharpe (Kimberlin Brown) was shot on Monday while wrestling with Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada) over a gun. There will be two more gunshot victims and one will be Luna. There are reports that one victim will die but it will not be Miss Nozawa.

Yamada, however, is leaving The Bold and the Beautiful for a role in Elle, a prequel to the hit film Legally Blonde. This leaves fans wondering who the third victim will be and who will lose their life. Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda), Bridget Forrester (Ashley Jones), and Grace Buckingham (Cassandra Creech) will all be working hard to save lives, but one will be lost. John Finnegan (Tanner Novlin) is not mentioned so he might be too distraught over the events.

Who will live and who will die?

There have been rumors that Crew Morrow is leaving B&B for The Young and the Restless because Will Spencer will die. There has been no confirmation of this, but it could happen. Spoilers reveal that Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) will be at the hospital agonizing over Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton). What's unknown is whether Liam gets shot or if he is at the hospital because of his medical condition.

Bill will also feel guilty because he set everything in motion by getting Luna set free from jail. Steffy probably is not going to be a victim, because we know Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) and Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) will be enjoying themselves in Italy later in the month.

Some fans believe Remy Pryce (Christian Weissman) might die because he is not a regular character. Although spoilers assure fans of The Bold and the Beautiful that Luna won't die, Sheila's fate is unknown. It's believed Luna will be incarcerated again, but another theory is making the rounds.

Will Luna go to prison or be hidden away?

Some B&B viewers believe Li and Poppy Nozawa (Romy Park) will join forces and take Luna away somewhere so she cannot hurt anyone again. The sisters are at odds because Poppy slept with a teenage Finn, and became pregnant but they still might work together.

B&B viewers recall that Li kidnapped Finn and cared for him in secret after he was shot by Sheila, when everyone thought he was dead. The sisters could have pity on Finn's daughter and hide her away, while it's believed that she has died.

This would leave the door open for a return but who would want Luna around after the chaos she has caused.If she is the shooter of the person who dies she will have murdered three individuals. It's possible that Dollar Bill may also be blamed since he saw that Luna was set free.

There is much uncertainty

There will be much chaos this week and some tense moments as thsi drama comes to a conclusion, so be sure you don't miss an episode. What is known is that Lisa Yomada has another role, so she might say goodbye to The Bold and the Beautiful, as did Pierson Forde (Thomas Forrester) and Kia Barnes ( Zoe Buckingham).

Younger soap actors come and go and don't seem to have the staying power of those who have been on the daytime drama long-term. Lang and John McCook (Eric Forrester) have been with the show since it debuted in 1987, which is admirable. B&B fans wish the best of luck to Lisa Yomada in Elle, but say they will be glad her character's chapter has come to an end.
