After much speculation and theories The Bold and the Beautiful has finally revealed just who it’s newest leading man Harrison Cone will be playing, but is it who viewers suspect?
When Cone’s casting was announced viewers were teased that while his identity wasn’t being revealed in advance, he would be tied to someone on the canvas. The character was also described to be a fashion designer, leading many to assume the identity would be that of Jack Marone, son of Nick Marone (Jack Wagner) and Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang).
However, the character made his debut on September 16, 2025 and it was revealed that the character’s name is Deke.
While viewers have not yet been shown what the connection between Deke and the canvas is, many viewers assume that Deke may in fact be Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan)’s son Eric Sharpe aka Little D, his son with Becky Moore (Marissa Tait)

How is Deke tied to the canvas?
Deke is Remy (Christian Weissman) love interest. The two were shown together when Luna Nozowa (Lisa Yamada) came over to their apartment. “Are you guys roommates?” Luna ask. “We live together, Luna.” Remy responded, before further explaining that “we’re together. Deke’s my boyfriend.”
Luna then questioned this apparent life changing news, asking “Wait. And this is coming from a guy who was crazy for a certain girl not so long ago?” Referring to Remy’s interest in Electra (Laneya Grace).
Remy then went on to share, “Yeah. What can I say? I mean, the closet is a complicated place. You know, I think part of me thought that if I could get her to want me that… I’d be able to hide who I really was. Stupid. I know. Luckily, I don’t have to hide anymore.”
Why is Deke and Remy Noteworthy?
Deke and Remy mark the first gay male relationship for the long running CBS soap opera. The two have been confirmed to be something the show is committed to telling, and will not be shying away from having the two kiss.
