Remy’s Boyfriend is Deacon’s Son! Who is Deke Sharpe on Bold & Beautiful?
In the ever-twisting world of The Bold and the Beautiful, a new face has suddenly emerged—and with him, a secret so explosive it threatens to unravel legacies, love stories, and loyalties. Remy’s dashing new boyfriend—known simply as “Dee”—has just been revealed to be Deacon’s long‑lost son, Deke Sharpe. And this twist is not just another soap plot device. It’s about to shift the dynamics among the Foresters, Spencers, and Carters in ways no one saw coming.
Unmasking Deke Sharpe: Dee’s True Identity
Dee—at first presented as a talented young designer stepping into the Forester fold—was always destined to carry more than just creative tools. His full name, Dee Sharpe, dropped in the closing credits of recent episodes, planted the seed for something much bigger. Early hints and fan theories converged when close ties to Forester Company and lingering mentions of his parents’ past couldn’t be ignored. Then came the bomb: Dee is none other than Deke, born in 1999 to Deacon and Becky Moore.
The backstory here is thick with betrayal and heartbreak: Deacon refused Becky’s request to acknowledge the child, so Becky placed him up for adoption. Then, in a twist worthy of daytime history, Becky’s mother swapped babies—Deacon’s son with her cousin’s stillborn infant. That child became Eric Forester, raised by Rick Forrester and Amber Moore. Meanwhile, Deke grew up apart, his identity hidden, his lineage erased… until now.
A Fragmented Past Takes Shape
When Deacon finally reunites with his son, he and Amber attempted to build something — Deacon as father, Amber as mother. But that fragile bond unravels: Amber chooses Rick over Deacon; Deacon, in retaliation and heartbreak, marries Rick’s sister Bridget and pursues custody. He briefly wins, moving his son in with him and his then‑wife, Macy Alexander. These early years are chaotic, tempered by legal battles and emotional upheaval.
At one point, Deke is sent to live with Deacon’s parents. When he returns to Los Angeles, he’s said to look younger than his biological half‑sister, Hope — a detail fans have noticed with curiosity. The years of uncertainty, mistaken identity, and parental shifts leave a man with deep emotional scars even before he can form his own identity.
Enter Dee: Designer. Boyfriend. Catalyst.
Fast-forward to Remy’s current romantic storyline: Dee arrives in town, talented, charming, creative—and more than a little connected to the Forester empire. As Remy’s boyfriend, he adds another layer of intrigue: how much does he know? How much does Deacon know? And how will their worlds collide now that Deke’s secret is out?
Romance, in soaps, often comes with hidden baggage. But in this case, Dee’s entrance threatens to pull every major player into the web of family legacy and deceit. Remy, already entwined with the Spencer‑Forester orbit, suddenly finds himself caught between love for Dee and the emotional landmines of Deacon’s past.
Ethical Storm: Sheila, Family, and Unaware Dangers
There’s yet another twist: Dee might still be in the dark about some of his paternal lineage — particularly that Deacon is now married to Sheila Carter, one of B&B’s most notorious villains. Sheila’s history of manipulation, murder, psychological games, and betrayals casts a long shadow over any family connection. How will Dee react when he learns that his father’s wife is a woman who, in many ways, embodies chaos?
Meanwhile, fans are speculating: Will Dee confront Luna’s assault on Will Spencer? Will he become an ally to Will, or a complicating factor? Will he dig into family history, perhaps clashing with Deacon over secrets he’s kept, over the unresolved trauma surrounding adoption, identity, and loyalty?
Impact: For the Forester & Spencer Dynasties
This reveal does more than add a new player—it shifts the power dynamics of B&B’s core families.
- For Deacon, it’s a reckoning. He must answer for his past decisions: denying his son, allowing adoption—allowing identity to be stolen. If Dee seeks truth (and acknowledgment), Deacon might face both public humiliation and the disintegration of long‑held alliances.
- For Amber, Rick, Bridget, and Hope, the news could reframe many of their past experiences. If Eric Forester was unknowingly raised as the Forester heir because of a baby swap, then genuine relationships, inheritance, family loyalty—they all look different now. There are emptier shadows where genuine father‑son bonds should have been.
- For Remy, this relationship becomes more than romantic drama. Dee’s past will put pressure on Remy’s loyalties. Will he stand by Dee when family secrets unravel? Will his relationship suffer from the fallout of Deacon’s other entanglements?
- For viewers, this is classic Bold & the Beautiful at its emotional finest: moral ambiguity, identity crises, love triangles remade, and the consequences of past sins catching up to the present.
Speculation: What Dee Knows (Or Doesn’t), and What Comes Next
Now that fans know Dee is Deke, the question is: how much does he know? So far, his public persona seems unaware of half the truth. Does he suspect familial ties to the Foresters? Has he pieced together enough clues — old documents, parental references, or cryptic conversations — to suspect adoption or lineage?
If Dee learns that Deacon is his father and Sheila his stepmother, how will he respond? Disappointment? Anger? Estrangement? And what about Deacon’s reaction? Will he open up, risk losing control, or try to suppress the chaos?
And then there’s Luna: with all that scandal — her assault on Will, her declared pregnancy, the moral and legal consequences — could Dee become a moral voice? Might he challenge Luna’s lies or pursue justice for Will? Given his own history of adoption, legitimacy, and stolen identity, this storyline offers opportunity for him to choose integrity.
The Dramatic Stakes: What This Twist Means Long Term
This reveal isn’t a throw‑away plot twist—it has potential to re‑center B&B around issues of identity, truth, and the idea that love alone cannot resolve unresolved secrets. Family isn’t just who raises you—it’s who acknowledges you. Love isn’t enough if built on lies or omissions.
Deke Sharpe (Dee) arrives as not just Remy’s latest love interest, but as a living reminder that the past doesn’t stay buried. Histories long suppressed have consequences. Emotional and legal. Psychological and familial. The show may be steering toward custody battles, inheritance disputes, and sibling rivalries none of the younger generation anticipated.
And with Deacon’s current marriage to Sheila Carter, Bill Spencer’s recent conflicts with Luna, and Will knowing more about Luna’s crimes than Electra does, the pressure builds from multiple directions. Dee is caught in between — love, betrayal, legacy.
Final Thoughts: What to Expect
- Revelations & Confessions: Expect dramatic episodes where Dee confronts Deacon, where Amber hears his voice, where Hope’s identity as Deke’s sister is revisited. Secrets long hidden will surface under the brightest, most unflattering light.
- Romantic Fallout: Remy’s relationship with Dee could be both his greatest support and his biggest heartbreak. Allies will become adversaries, loyalty will be tested.
- Villains Exposed: Sheila’s web of manipulation may be threatened. If Dee digs into Deacon’s secrets, she could become vulnerable, perhaps judged more sharply by both family and viewers as more than just “wife of intrigue.”
- Identity and Healing: On a more emotional level, Dee’s arc might be about reclaiming his history, establishing bonds, and deciding what kind of man he wants to be—with all the chaos that comes along.
Bottom line: The Bold & the Beautiful has introduced a character who is more than just a romantic intrigue—Deke “Dee” Sharpe is a seismic shift in the show’s legacy. He forces every character around him to confront what they believe about family, honesty, and what it means to be truly known. As fans watch him navigate this dangerous web of love, deception, and power, one thing is certain: once you set history free, you can never stuff it back into a locked box.
Stay tuned. The storm has only just begun.
