A glance at Deacon Sharpe of The Bold and the Beautiful
Deacon Sharpe is a villain who moved between The Bold and the Beautiful and its sister soap. He arrived on B&B in 2000 when Rick Forrester got him to sign away his parental rights on little Eric. However, Deacon had a change of heart and asked for Eric's custody from his adoptive mother, Amber Moore.
After pursuing Amber for some time, he eloped and married Bridget Forrester. He ignored Bridget's family's physical revenge. However, his most dishonorable relationship was with Bridget's mother, Brooke Logan. This resulted in Hope Logan's birth. He first wrote off parental rights for Hope to Nick Marone and later to Ridge Forrester.
Deacon moved to The Young and the Restless for about three years and was missing from B&B. He arrived in LA again in 2014 and collaborated with Quinn Fuller to bring Hope and Wyatt Spencer together.
