For the past few weeks The Bold and the Beautiful has been caught in a battle between two families: the Forresters and the Logans. After a coup that transferred ownership of Forrester Creations to Carter Walton, he gave the Logans the power to run the company.

Brooke has constantly had stakes in both sides for this storyline. She has been campaigning for justice for her daughter Hope and the fact that she was unfairly fired from Forrester. However, Brooke warned her partner Ridge when she realised that Carter was planning an unethical coup to remove him from power.
In the latest episode of the soap, Ridge was seen rekindling his romance with Taylor Hayes, his former wife. Following this development, many fans took to Facebook to discuss the effect it had on Brooke:
Many fans believed that Ridge was breaking Brooke's heart one step at a time, from dismissing her opinions to lashing out at Hope. They also expressed their support for Brooke:
However, a few audience members also came up with their support for the Forresters instead of Brooke, opining that there are two sides to every story:
What are Brooke Logan and Ridge Forrester going through on The Bold and the Beautiful?
Brooke Logan has found herself in the middle of a crisis on The Bold and the Beautiful, both on the familial and the relationship fronts. She is currently torn between her feelings for Ridge Forrester, and his behaviour towards her daughter, Hope Logan.
In the last few weeks, Hope and her boyfriend Carter Walton launched a bold move to take control of Forrester Creations after Hope was fired and her fashion line, Hope for the Future, was shut down. This became the primary cause for the struggle between the Logans and the Forresters.
Brooke initially learned about the coup and rushed to warn Ridge. She told him that Forrester Creations was in jeopardy, but it was too late by then. Carter had already tricked Ridge into signing away his rights to the company, unintentionally transferring ownership to Carter and Hope.
Tensions reached a boiling point when Ridge was in a furious confrontation with Hope, calling her a "nasty little b*tch" for her role in the scheme, right in front of Brooke. Understandably, Brooke was hurt by Ridge's outburst, forcing their relationship to a point of no return.
With Ridge and Brooke’s relationship hanging by a thread, the situation has taken another unexpected turn. During this week on the soap, Ridge rekindled his romance with Taylor Hayes. After his continued support of Steffy over Hope, he has now shifted his romantic attentions to Steffy's mother too.
This affair has left Ridge and Brooke's future more uncertain than ever, pushing their relationship to a crossroads.
