Maya's (Karla Mosley) plans to tell Rick (Jacob Young) the truth about being transgender before he proposes could get even closer to being upstaged by someone else telling the truth before she does on The Bold and the Beautiful.

Bill Starts Making Plans

The number of people knowing her secret has imploded in recent days--and now, there is big fear about one person in particular knowing the truth--Bill (Don Diamont), the ruthless head of Spencer Publications, who will stop at nothing to take down both Rick and Maya by publishing the humiliating truth on the cover of all his tabloid magazines,

Someone who is genuinely scared about Bill publishing the truth is none other than Maya's sister, Nicole (Reign Edwards), who is responsible for the truth spreading to the Spencer clan because she came clean with Wyatt (Darin Brooks). Now, she will be questioning how loyal he is to her, and will try to do some damage control by reminding him that Rick could react negatively towards Maya--and even violently--if he learns the truth from someone else.

Wyatt and Liam Figure Out What To Do With Truth About Maya

"If Rick finds out about Maya from anybody else, it could be really bad," she says to him in a preview clip for the Wednesday, May 13 episode.

Also worried about Bill spilling the truth are Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang), who, although they have differing opinions on Rick's right to be CEO of the company, do agree that the scandal could harm the company in a big way.

"Oh my god," Brooke says to Ridge in the clip. "That's not good."

And it turns out everyone should be concerned about what Bill will do, because even though Katie (Heather Tom) and Liam (Scott Clifton) begged him to leave the story alone because it was too personal to sensationalize for their own benefit, he is going ahead with it anyway--and is brainstorming big ideas with Justin (Aaron D. Spears).

"Forrester's gorgeous lead model, the supposed one true love of Rick's life, the big honking picture hanging on the wall, was born a guy," he says to Justin in the clip.

The Bold and the Beautiful airs Monday-Friday at 1:30 p.m. on CBS.
