‘The Bold and the Beautiful’ (B&B) spoilers say that while a lot of actresses in her position would consider this to be a blessing, Jacqueline MacInnes Wood is doing everything she can to separate her ‘real’ pregnancy from her ‘fake’ pregnancy.
Being the protective mother that she is, Jacqueline wants to protect her child from all of the feelings and emotions that she is playing in front of the cameras. Here’s what she has to say.
‘The Bold and the Beautiful’ Spoilers: Jacqueline MacInnes Wood Is Separating Her Real Pregnancy From Her Fake Pregnancy
Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, Jacqueline explains how she’s trying to separate taking care of her child during her pregnancy while she is still going through all of those grueling takes and the emotional rollercoaster ride that her character Steffy Forrester is going through right now during her own pregnancy.
Jacqueline puts it this way, “My first pregnancy, I had all of those emotional scenes with Bill and Liam, but then I got pregnant after that and I had a really chill storyline, not emotional, very relaxed. This time, I was 4 months pregnant, I had these very emotional scenes, but it’s weird in that it never felt like it was too much stress on the baby. It was really nice. It’s hard to explain. I was in the scene and the top of me knew I was in the scene and my lower half was like, ‘Don’t worry.’ I felt very grounded.”
With that said though, Jacqueline is also very grateful that she doesn’t have to hide her pregnancy this time around like she did with her first one. “I was far along in my pregnancy when I revealed that at some point in the new year I’d have to take maternity leave,” she adds.
“I like that I get to embrace my pregnancy on the show; it just makes everything a lot more Zen. When I was pregnant with Rise, I was doing very emotional, crying scenes every day, and of course, I had to compensate to him in utero for all that emotion after the scenes were done. I think that this is a great plot twist. I mean, Steffy just found a new man so, of course, it can’t be uncomplicated and I no longer have to hide behind big, baggy clothes, desks, plants and purses!”
