Luna's apparent death after being shot on The Bold and the Beautiful has triggered intense speculation. While the show announced her death in a recent episode, several viewers believe it may just be another twist in the long-running CBS soap. The suspicious behavior of Li, the character's grandmother, and the show's history of fake deaths are key reasons for this skepticism.
What actually happened to Luna?
In the July 8 episode, Luna was shot by Liam during a chaotic scene that unfolded after Luna had accidentally wounded him during a struggle with Sheila. Doctors performed emergency surgery to save her life. After the operation, Li and Bridget informed viewers that Luna had made it through the procedure but would possibly face legal consequences.
After Bridget left the hospital room, Li was seen telling Luna, 'You don't deserve this, Luna,' and then mentioned keeping a 'close eye' on her. Not long after, Li informed the rest of the characters that Luna had died. This sudden shift has left many wondering whether Luna actually died or if Li is hiding something once again—something she's done in the past.
Why fans are doubting the death
Li has a history of keeping major secrets. In the past, she let others believe that Finn had died after being shot by Sheila. She hid the truth from Steffy and the rest of the family for quite some time. Because of that, longtime fans are suspicious of Li's behavior now.
A fan shared on social media: 'They ALL hated Luna & you know they all wanted her dead. But her mom says it & they'll all hate her. These folks are monsters.' Another viewer pointed out: 'Them keep bringing Luna name is convincing me she definitely not dead.'

Behind-the-scenes hints suggest a twist
Lisa Yamada, who plays Luna, has reportedly exited the show. However, behind-the-scenes photos recently posted by Katherine Kelly Lang (who plays Brooke) suggest that both Luna and Liam are on set for episodes scheduled to air in September. This contradicts the storyline that Luna has died and supports the theory that the character might return.
Additionally, The Bold and the Beautiful has a record of dramatic reversals. Bill Spencer was shown to have hidden the real murderer in another storyline, even after someone else had been wrongly imprisoned. These previous twists have set the tone for Luna's current situation.
A pattern fans know too well
Since her entry in 2023 as a kind and cheerful character, Luna's arc has changed significantly. She got involved in crime, betrayed her boyfriend, and eventually shot Liam. Liam then returned fire, injuring Luna. The quick shift from surgery recovery to death announcement—especially with Li at the center—has raised eyebrows.

While the show stated Luna is dead, the clues and patterns suggest this may not be the final chapter for the character. Whether this is another staged disappearance or a real exit remains to be seen, but viewers have good reason to believe that Luna's story isn't over just yet.
