Naomi Matsuda

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers reveal that Tom Starr (Clint Howard) was murdered. There are a few suspects, but those are likely red herrings. However, Naomi Matsuda (Li Finnegan) has teased a massive twist in one of her story arcs.

So, could Li and Jack Finnegan (Ted King) have killed Tom to somehow “save” Penelope “Poppy” Nozawa (Romy Park) and Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada)?

Maybe that’s why Li allowed Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) to think he is Luna’s bio dad? Let’s talk about what Naomi said and how it ties into the spoilers ahead.

Tom Starr’s Claim

B&B spoilers reveal that Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) was doing everything in his power to give Tom a second chance at life. Then, Tom ran into Poppy and it was not a heartwarming reunion.

In fact, Tom claimed that he was Luna’s real dad, a fact that Poppy denied. Poppy told Tom that they had a paternity test done, which Li administered, which showed Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) is Luna’s father. 

The next thing we know, someone drugged Tom’s neon blue sports drink. Now Tom is dead and apparently, someone has hidden his backpack. This backpack will be found during the week of July 8, 2024, which holds some shocking items.

B&B Spoilers: Jack Finnegan’s Return

Now, going back to the night of Tom’s death, a lot of people showed up for the musical event at Il Giardino. Li was there and so was Justin Barber (Aaron D. Spears). Even Jack showed up and I was even aware he was still living in Los Angeles. 

Li and Jack ran into each other. Even though Li was in scrubs and clearly still on duty, Jack offered to buy her a drink. Li just walked away, but the interaction was weird. It was weird even considering Jack and Li’s complicated history.

Naomi Matsuda’s Turmotulous Twist

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers reveal that Matsuda has hinted at a massive twist in Li’s story. This is what the actress had to hint while talking to the press at the Daytime Emmy Awards. When asked if Li should lose her medical license for how she administered the paternity test, Matsuda said,

“Don’t you dare say that!” 

As Naomi listened to the theories, the actress couldn’t deny or confirm anything. However, she did say the fan speculations would make great storylines. Naomi also admitted that she would love to work more with Kimberlin Brown (Sheila Carter Sharpe) again. 

The Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Redemptive Double Save?

Even though one theory is that Li tampered with the paternity test, why would she want Bill to be named as Luna’s father? Li has a lot of beef with Poppy, so she wouldn’t do it out of the kindness of her heart.

One possibility is that Tom was secretly dangerous, something that perhaps Li knew. Maybe Li did it because she knew Bill would protect Luna from Tom. That could also explain why Li didn’t stop to help Tom after he collapsed even though she is a doctor. 

It is teased that Li and Jack keep the truth about what happened the night of Tom’s death from John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan). It sounds like Jack and Li might have killed Tom!

So, when Tom’s backpack is found, what is so shocking inside that it rocks Los Angeles? Maybe Tom wasn’t as sweet and grateful as everyone thinks.
