Bold & Beautiful’s Deacon is clearly feeling torn between the feelings he’s developed for his psychiatrist, Taylor, and the love he has for his wife, but what happens next will almost certainly blow up his recent marital reunion. Yes, Sheila’s harboring yet another secret… and it’s thisclose to being exposed!
Although Deacon’s gone back to Sheila, it’s been far from a passionate rekindling of the flame. It wasn’t exactly the heighth of romance when he informed her that he came back because it was the right thing to do. That suggests that although he still has love for her, part of the reason he’s giving the marriage another chance is out of a sense of duty.
We saw Deacon start to fall for Taylor, the woman who advised him in the days following Sheila’s big betrayal, and who ultimately sent him back to give his marriage another shot. For her, it was also the right thing to do… especially considering they had a doctor/patient relationship and the closeness between them was, ahem… inappropriate.
Bottom line: Deacon and Sheila’s reunion is a precarious one. It wouldn’t take much for him to throw in the towel entirely. For instance, if he were to find out that his wife was harboring another secret, or had made other questionable moves behind his back, well, that would surely be the only excuse he’d need to kick Sheila to the curb… and dive right into exploring his feelings for Tay Tay.

Given that Sheila did do something else that Deacon is unaware of, and that it’s suddenly going to become relevant to current events, we’re expecting the reveal will be the last proverbial straw. What on earth are we referring to?
When Remy, who is suddenly back on the scene and on everyone’s naughty list, showed up at Il Giardino after serving time for posting fake nudes of Electra, Sheila was able to relate to the young criminal seeking a second chance. She couldn’t rehire him, but helped him out by tipping him off that Bill needed someone to fix his A/C system. Bill, who was hiding Luna in his home at the time, hired “Dario” without a second thought.
It doesn’t seem like a transgression big enough to upset Deacon and Sheila’s apple cart, but given they’re on such thin ice, and that Remy is the town pariah at the moment, we’re gonna go out on a limb and guess that they’ll be done like dinner when it comes out she came to the rescue of yet another baddie… and it will. Soon.
Bill spent a good part of a recent episode ranting about protecting Electra from Remy, having no idea he had the guy in his own house. Yep, this is going to explode and Sheila will find herself in the hot seat again. We can already hear Deacon hollering that if Sheila hadn’t helped the stalker find a job, he would have left town and never would have become entangled with his son, Deke.
Deacon’s all but looking for a reason to dump Sheila and run to Taylor, and we’re betting the reveal that Sheila helped Remy gain access to a job (not to mention Bill’s house and Luna), will be just the one he needs to jump the “Sheacon” ship.
