The Bold and the Beautiful’s Romy Park just made a shocking claim about her character Poppy and whether or not she groomed Finn. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
The Bold and the Beautiful Actress Insists Poppy Is Not A Groomer
Romy took to her Instagram account to write, “Just an FYI, grooming was never a part of the storyline or the intention of the writers although it has unfortunately been misconceived that way.”
She continued, “Poppy was wrong and it wasn’t appropriate. But she was not a groomer. Naomi can confirm this is the case as we were both very shocked by it.”
B&B fans certainly did have a lot to say about the matter. Some have even commented with, “It may not have been the intent, when you have an adult person who’s known the person since they were a child have a sexual relation with a just-turned-18 year old that’s exactly what it is. Their lack of foresight doesn’t take away that the entire storyline is covered in ick.”
Another fan wrote, “Exactly! Especially before this twist when Li was accusing Poppy of sleeping with Jack, she said that Poppy was in the house to help take care of Finn and pretty much help with Li’s responsibilities to the household as she was becoming a doctor and Jack was getting his law practice off the ground.”
“If they don’t want us to think about it as a grooming situation then they failed because this has all the hallmarks of grooming.”

And then there was this comment as well: “This story had zero grooming, do ppl not use their brains? It’s quite clear Poopy is meant to be only a couple of yrs older than Finn so when he was 18-19 she was at most 25.”
“Was Poppy more experienced than Finn? Yes, due to her likely starting to sleep with guys when she was 15-16, we have zero idea how many times she actually met Finn prior to coming to stay with them.”
Of course, The Bold and the Beautiful fans will have to tune in each and every day to find out what will happen next.
