Back in March, Wood announced on her website that she was expecting her fifth child. Since then, she has taken a hiatus from the soap as she goes on maternity leave.

Fans are already wondering just when they’ll see Steffy back on the soap. As noted by TV Insider, co-head writer Michael Minnis already teased the character’s return while discussing upcoming storylines.

Minnis shared, “[Steffy] comes back, and she has missed a lot. She’s concerned about her mom and what happened with Ridge, so she’s serving as a caring, supportive daughter. She has to catch up on the whole Luna situation and everything that’s happened there.” Currently, on the soap, Steffy has been out of time since her confrontation with Luna this past July.

Thanks to this, some fans are worried that Steffy’s recent absence could impact her relationship with Finn. However, Minnis assured, “Steffy and Finn are happy and together, so they don’t have any trials or tribulations facing them as a couple at the moment.”

Minnis also described the direction that the soap is going to take going forward. Reportedly, the writers are “really trying to center the show and get our focus on our couples and our families and maybe take a little breather from some of the really high dramatic stuff that’s been going on.”
