The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say that we’ve finally got the truth about Poppy’s mints and why she might be so attached to them. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, actress Romy Park, who plays Poppy on the hit CBS soap, admits that her character did not like being confronted by her sister Lil about her mint issue.
The actress also opened up about her character’s daughter Luna accidentally took some of her mints and ended up in bed with Zende rather than her boyfriend, RJ.
She said, “I think that was necessary for what was to come [in the story]. It is part of the plot, because we just found out, as it aired recently, that Tom has died of a drug overdose. And so, what drugs were they?”
“Now, Poppy — I think it’s unfair to say that she’s a drug addict, which I know some people have claimed: ‘Oh, she’s a drug addict!’ She stopped taking the mints, and I studied addiction, I went to school for it. An addict can’t stop just like that. It’s a process, you know?”
“It’s not a cold-turkey thing. But also, it was alluded to these [being] CBD mints, which are legal in California. I’m not saying it’s right or wrong. I’m saying that I think too much has been made of the fact that she’s a drug addict. It’s recreational.”
“She does not drink, and alcohol is also a drug, right. So, it’s kind of like pot calling the kettle and vice versa. That’s what I think about the mints! But,” she concludes, “they were an important ‘character.’“
As far as what kind of real life mints Romy recommends in real life, she said, “I don’t even know! Mints are always there on hand; they give them to us, especially when you’re in such close proximity to somebody or kissing them.”
“But these mints are extra special! I don’t know what they are, [but] they’re tasty.”
Of course, The Bold and the Beautiful fans will have to tune in to find out what will happen next!
