A Tik Tok video ruined Brooks’ strawberry shortcake birthday surprise.

Gluten-free strawberry shortcakes were the order of the day as Bold & Beautiful’s Darin Brooks (Wyatt) set out to make his wife, Kelly Kruger’s (Eva; Mackenzie, Young & Restless) birthday extra-special. The actor posted a heart-warming family photo and loved up message on social media and gushed, “Happy Birthday babe! Here’s to another one… You surprise me every day, you’re strong, funny and extremely caring for our baby girl! And she and I couldn’t be happier! I love you and have the happiest Birthday!”

On a decidedly cheekier note, he then added, “Oh… and you better like my homemade Gluten Free strawberry shortcakes I made for you, damnit!!!” The pair bantered in the comment section beneath the post as Kruger teased, “Thank u for making this day and every other day so special!! Love you!! ❤️❤️❤️ (Can’t wait to taste the cakes and my pad Thai 😂).” So it turns out he didn’t do all the birthday cooking, but those cakes were bound to be good… right?

Kruger, who recently appeared as Eva on Bold & Beautiful in a scene with Donna, took to social media a few hours later with an update, and it wasn’t all good news. She shared the same photo of the adorable fam cuddling in bed and relayed, “Couldn’t ask for more… well except for the strawberry shortcake I asked Darin to make.” Wait… what?

Elaborating on the strawberry-flavored letdown after so much build-up, the actress hilariously explained, “Problem is, I soaked the strawberries in vinegar because I saw stupid Tik Tok videos where millions of bugs come out when you do. Well, there were no bugs but the strawberries taste like vinegar… like very strong awful vinegar.” So, it really wasn’t Brooks’ fault and it’s the thought that counts anyway…

We’ve no idea how it all turned out as Kruger left us in suspense and said, “Sooo @theedarinbrooks has to go get more strawberries. Unless he’s mad and makes me a vanilla cake instead. Let’s see what happens.”

The actress signed off with thanks for all the birthday love she’d received and Brooks chimed in one more time to say, “Happy Birthday Munchkin Monkey Butt!!!” Such a cute couple. Happy birthday wishes to Kelly!

<p>Brooke’s portrayer and her handsome partner love traveling together, and they’re both so athletic that there’s a 50/50 chance you’re getting fitter just by reading this caption.</p>

<p>The significant other of the actor who plays Ridge is Susan Haskell, best known for her role of Marty Saybrooke (opposite his Patrick Thornhart) on <em>One Life to Live</em>. Except at home, where she’s probably better known as Mom to their two daughters.</p>

<p>The real-life alter ego of <em>Bold & Beautiful</em>‘s Carter married his college sweetheart in 2007. Together, they have a son who clearly is going to grow up to be drop-dead gorgeous. (Look at ’em!)</p>

<p>No soap could top <em>this</em> romantic storyline. Quinn’s portrayer married the TV producer in 2003, they divorced in 2017, and — plot twist! — the parents of two daughters have since reconciled.</p>

<p>Since the soap-hopping Emmy winner wed her beau in 2011, they’ve added to their family one son, Zane, who once played Katie’s child on <em>The Bold and the Beautiful.</em></p>

<p>The Daytime Emmy winner who brings Steffy to life married her hubba-hubby honey in 2018. They now have three sons, Rise, Lenix, and Brando.</p>

<p>The hottie who plays Finn is married to the <em>Bold & Beautiful</em> alum who in the mid-2000s appeared on the show as Caitlin Ramirez (and also worked as a love-scene stand-in for Jacqueline MacInnes Wood during the pandemic). The couple have one daughter, Poppy, and a son named Jones.</p>

<p>The daytime vet who played <em>Bold & Beautiful</em>‘s Maya is in a long-term relationship with the handsome fella with whom she has two daughters.</p>

<p>Shauna’s off-screen alter ego married her hunky hubby in 2018. The <em>Wild Things</em> vixen was formerly married to actor Charlie Sheen, with whom she has two daughters. In 2011, she adopted a third daughter.</p>

<p>The actor who has given Justin his edge has five children with his wife — four daughters and a son. Or, in soap terms, almost enough characters to populate a daytime drama of his own.</p>

<p>Deacon’s portrayer could teach the ex-con a thing or two about maintaining a healthy relationship. He and his wife have been married since 2012 and have a blended family of five.</p>

<p>Off screen, <em>Bold & Beautiful</em>‘s Donna has been happily hitched to this real-estate developer since 2010. The couple has two children, a son and a daughter, and no trouble looking amazing in every picture. Seriously. Every. Single. One.</p>

<p>The soap vet who plays Eric married his missus in 1980 (only a year after she played Cassiopeia on the original <em>Battlestar Galactica</em>). They have three children, including actress Molly McCook (<em>Last Man Standing</em>).</p>

<p>Brown and Pelzer married in May 1991. The happy couple have two grown kids, Alexes and Nicholas.</p>

<p>Cassandra Creech, who plays the dynamic Dr. Grace Buckingham on <em>Bold & Beautiful</em>, married author/nutritionist Johnny Bowden in 1998.</p>
