The cliffhanger at the end of The Bold and the Beautiful episode, which aired on August 23, 2024, saw Steffy lying on the floor after consuming a spiked drink. While the scene may be spine-chilling, Steffy is not dead on the soap as of now. She was poisoned and would be locked up in a remote place for a few days.
Things in LA are very volatile for Steffy right now with her mother, Taylor, back in town. On the other hand, her rival, Hope, has taken the liberty to plant a kiss on her husband, Finn. While Finn was honest enough to open up in front of his wife, Steffy accused him of letting the incident happen.
Moreover, things at The Bold and the Beautiful are not going as planned for the Forrester Creations CEO. At such a time, Steffy taking a break sounded odd and may have set the plot for her absence for some time.

Steffy is facing peril on The Bold and the Beautiful
Steffy has faced many horrifying events in The Bold and the Beautiful. The recent episode of August 23, 2024, found Steffy stumbling onto Luna kissing Bill. While Bill told Luna her move was wrong, Steffy looked for an explanation from Luna. As such, she followed Luna to her apartment.
At Luna's apartment, Steffy confronted the girl upfront about her actions. Realizing that Steffy had already seen her kissing Bill, Luna tried to reason out with her. She was also hospitable enough to offer Steffy a drink. Listening to Luna, she wondered whether she knew the real Luna.
As Steffy started putting the facts together, she realized that Luna might have been behind the murders of Tom and Hollis. Steffy also figured out that the girl may have falsely framed her mother, Poppy, for the crimes that she herself committed. However, as Steffy thought aloud that Luna was the kind of person who would go to any length to achieve her goals, Luna smiled.
Almost simultaneously, Steffy found it difficult to focus on Luna's face and stared at her glass of drink, which she almost emptied. The next moment, Steffy collapsed on the floor as her glass smashed to bits. The closing scene of the episode on The Bold and the Beautiful found Luna standing over a sprawled Steffy.
What would happen to Steffy on The Bold and the Beautiful
After discovering Luna's sly truth, the Forrester CEO's life is in danger. For one, Luna is aware that Steffy knows about her and will likely not let the truth spill out any further. She may keep the latter locked up and drugged.
However, if she chooses to lock up the Forrester girl in the old apartment belonging to Poppy, more danger awaits Steffy. The old apartment is slated for demolition and would otherwise remain abandoned. This means there would be a slim chance of discovering Steffy's presence in the building.
Also, very few people will realize Steffy is missing. She already informed Finn about needing space away from him, besides warning Hope to keep her hands off her husband while she was away. She also went to meet Bill and asked for Liam's help to take care of Kelly.
Her interaction with Luna came after she informed all acquaintances about skipping town for a few days. As the plot line goes, no one in LA would look for her, assuming she is on the break she mentioned.
Will Steffy actor Jacqueline leave The Bold and the Beautiful?
There have been recent speculations about Jacqueline's pregnancy, which may necessitate the actor's break from the show. Add to that the current plot showing Steffy planning a break; it seemed the actor was leaving for a limited period. To top that, the recent story arc of Luna poisoning Steffy to keep her quiet suggests that Steffy may be missing in action for some time.
While neither the actor nor the production house has any word on Steffy leaving the storyline, the sudden turn of events hints at a short absence while being locked up. However, it may be assumed that Steffy is not dying and will return to The Bold and the Beautiful in the future.
Watch the soap on CBS on weekdays.
