A brief throwback to Jack Finnegan's storyline on The Bold and the Beautiful
Jack Finnegan’s journey on The Bold and the Beautiful has been full of twists, lies, and heartbreak. At first, he seemed like a loving adoptive father to Dr. John “Finn” Finnegan but everything changed when Sheila Carter showed up at Finn and Steffy’s wedding and revealed she was Finn’s real mother.
That wasn’t the only secret, Jack was also exposed as Finn’s biological father, something he had kept hidden for years. This revelation shocked his wife, Li, and pushed his son away, leaving their family in chaos.
Jack’s secret past with Sheila didn’t just impact his relationships, it also made him an easy target for blackmail. Sheila used this to control him, forcing him to help her get closer to her grandson, Hayes, which caused even more problems for Finn and Steffy.
Even though Jack tried to make things right by telling Finn and Li the truth, his actions ended up pushing them away. After leaving Los Angeles in shame, Jack reappeared in 2023 and 2024, suggesting that his past troubles and family drama were far from over.
Fans of The Bold and the Beautiful can watch new episodes of the show on CBS and Paramount Plus.
