Sheila Carter Sharpe’s Interruption

Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) and Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) jump up from the couch. Sheila says it hurts more than she thought seeing them together like that.

Sheila takes out papers. The divorce papers, to be exact. The lady assumes they thought she was going to shoot them. 

She brought the papers, but hasn’t signed them yet. Sheila reminds Deacon she doesn’t want to end their marriage. 

She deserves something for all she put into their marriage. 

Taylor Hayes’ Deal

The lady asks for Taylor to advocate for her so she can build a relationship with John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) and Hayes Forrester Finnegan (Alexander and Chase Banks). 

It’s the least Taylor can do since she stole Deacon. Sheila wants supervised visits with her family.

Sheila asks for two days a month or she won’t sign the divorce papers. 

Wait, do they realize Sheila doesn’t have to sign the papers? A judge will grant it after a certain amount of time. 

Anyways, I guess soaps operate differently than real life.
