The Bold and the Beautiful viewers are spot-on : Shelia is Finn's mother
Major drama begins when Kimberlin Brown returns and crashes the wedding.
Things are about to become pretty interesting in the LA fashion world of the Forrester’s and Logan’s as the day of Sinn’s wedding approaches. Astute viewers of THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL correctly predicted that Dr. Finn’s big secret was that he was adopted. Some fans went a step further and suggested that his mother might be the notorious Shelia Carter and again they were spot on. Kimberlin Brown had been spotted at the CBS studio this past spring but a cover story was given. There is no telling where this wide ride is headed but viewers should fasten their seatbelts.
In the above photo, Kimberlin Brown is posing with Jacqueline Woods, (Steffy) Tanner Novlin,(Finn), and Matt Cohen who once portrayed Griffin Monroe on GENERAL HOSPITAL. Cohen is now a correspondent for ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT. There have been no revelations yet about how this storyline will play out but there is one thing B&B viewers can take to the bank. Sheila Carter will definitely be in attendance at the wedding that is supposed to begin on Thursday. Those who watch THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL will be anxious to find out the rest of the back story on John Finnigan.
Fans of THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL will want to know if and or how Jack Finnegan knows crazy Sheila Carter and if he had an affair with her. Is he Finn's biological dad and is his wife Li aware of and part of the situation? Where has Sheila been all of this time and why has she not shown any interest in her son until now? Perhaps she reads the wedding notice online decides to make an appearance. Finn hid the fact that he was adopted and who knows what else he may be hiding. Does Dr. Finn know that crazy Sheila Carter is his bio mom and has he ever had contact with her?
Surely Jack Finnegan and possibly his wife know that Finn's birth mother is psychotic. What a cruel joke to be played on Steffy's wedding day and ruin her happiness before it begins. Longtime fans of THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS will recall that Shelia had twins Ryder and Daisy by Tom Fisher who was the father of Kevin Fisher. Is it possible Ms. Carter gave birth to triplets and the Finnegan's raised one of them? THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL spoilers have been teasing that Finn had a huge backstory and when the adoption was revealed fans knew this alone was not that big of a deal.
Sheila Carter has been a tyrant on both CBS soaps and is certifiable as a psychopath. Steffy cannot stand villain because she caused problems for so many of her friends and loved ones. Sheila once kidnapped Steffy’s father Ridge along with his then wife Brooke. Ms. Carter was also married to Steffy’s grandfather Eric and was obsessed with him for many years after. She made a point of doing bodily harm to anyone who got in her way and had more than her share of run ins with Steffy's grandmother and namesake, Steffanie Forrester. Ms. Carter also once shot both Steffy's mother Taylor and her stepmom Brooke.
Taylor was even presumed dead for a time. How will Steffy handle finding out that her baby’s biological maternal grandmother is the woman who tried to destroy her mom, father, stepmother, grandfather and so many others? This is going to be one uncomfortable situation and might end Sinn before they even begin. Many viewers are wondering why Hunter Tylo does not return as Taylor Hayes and this would be an ideal time. Be on the lookout for updates related to Shelia and tune in each weekday afternoon because some "must see" TV is on the way on THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL.
As of Friday's episode, Stephanie Forrester's sister Pam was the only unexpected guest to show up but the wedding will continue on Monday. Finn's dad went to the door when Pam arrived and asked "Is it oyu" so clearly he was expecting someone. Pam took off her veil and Eric introduced her and Jack seemed relieved, Tune in to see if spoilers are correct and Sheila crashes the wedding.

The Rachels - 2025
Much to my surprise, I have kept a list of the films I‘ve seen this year. I daresay it isn’t complete. There will be films that snuck in on a late night in front of the TV that I would’ve forgotten to note. Or others, that I went to watch at the cinema, but then had a red wine and promptly forgotten about. But it’s not a bad approximation of the films I’ve seen this year. In total, there are 53 films listed, so an average of one a week and one for good luck.

PTA Wrote to X Three Times Seeking Closure of Imran Khan’s X Account Over the Past 3.5 Years
Pakistan’s digital governance has once again come into the spotlight following revelations that the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) contacted X (formerly Twitter) multiple times over the past three and a half years, seeking the closure of former Prime Minister Imran Khan’s X account. The disclosure has sparked renewed debate about freedom of expression, political speech, and the regulation of social media platforms in Pakistan. As social media continues to shape political narratives, the issue highlights the growing tension between state regulation and digital rights. Background of the Requests According to official sources, the PTA wrote to X three separate times over the last 3.5 years, requesting action against Imran Khan’s verified account. The communications reportedly cited concerns related to content guidelines, misinformation, and public order. Imran Khan, leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), has remained one of the most influential political voices on social media, even during periods of political uncertainty and legal challenges. His X account has been used to: Share political statements and policy positions Address supporters directly Comment on national and international developments This influence has made his digital presence a highly sensitive issue for regulators and authorities. PTA’s Role in Digital Regulation The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority is responsible for monitoring and regulating telecommunications and internet services in the country. Over the years, PTA has taken action against: Content deemed unlawful Accounts accused of spreading misinformation Platforms that allegedly violate Pakistan’s digital laws Officials argue that their requests to X were made under existing legal frameworks, emphasizing the need to maintain public order and prevent the spread of harmful or misleading content. However, critics say the repeated requests raise concerns about selective enforcement and political pressure. X’s Response and Platform Policy X, like other global social media platforms, operates under its own content moderation policies, which are applied worldwide. While the company may comply with local laws in some cases, it also balances: Free speech principles User rights International standards on expression There has been no public confirmation that X agreed to permanently suspend or close Imran Khan’s account following PTA’s requests. In fact, his account has remained active for most of the period in question, suggesting that X either rejected or limited compliance with the requests. This reflects the broader challenge faced by governments when dealing with international tech platforms that are not fully subject to domestic control. Political and Public Reactions News of the PTA’s repeated letters has drawn strong reactions from various quarters. Supporters of Imran Khan PTI supporters view the requests as an attempt to silence political opposition. They argue that: Social media remains one of the few platforms for uncensored political expression Restricting accounts undermines democratic discourse Digital spaces should remain open for debate and dissent Government and Regulatory Perspective On the other hand, supporters of regulation stress that: No individual should be above the law Social media content can influence public order Authorities have a responsibility to act when content crosses legal limits This divide reflects Pakistan’s deeply polarized political environment, where digital platforms play a central role. Freedom of Expression vs. Regulation The case has reignited a broader conversation about freedom of expression in the digital age. Social media has become a powerful political tool, but it also raises concerns about: Fake news and misinformation Incitement and hate speech National security implications Human rights advocates argue that account closures should be a last resort, used only in extreme cases and through transparent legal processes. They warn that repeated requests without clear public justification could lead to self-censorship and erosion of democratic values. The Global Context Pakistan is not alone in facing these challenges. Governments around the world have struggled to regulate social media platforms while respecting free speech. Similar disputes have emerged in: India Turkey Brazil Several European countries These cases highlight a global trend where states seek greater control over digital narratives, while tech companies resist blanket censorship. What This Means for Pakistan’s Digital Future The disclosure that PTA contacted X three times over several years points to an ongoing struggle over digital authority. Key implications include: Increased scrutiny of political speech online Pressure on social media companies to comply with local demands Growing public awareness of digital rights Possible legal reforms related to online regulation As Pakistan’s population becomes increasingly connected, the outcome of such disputes may shape how politics, activism, and expression function online. Conclusion The revelation that the PTA sought the closure of Imran Khan’s X account three times over 3.5 years underscores the evolving battle between state authority and digital freedom. While regulators insist they are acting within the law, critics warn that repeated attempts to restrict a major political voice risk undermining democratic principles. As social media continues to influence public opinion and political engagement, Pakistan faces a critical question: How can it balance regulation with the right to free expression in an increasingly digital society? The answer will likely define the country’s online landscape for years to come.
