“Bye Taylor, go away” — The Bold and the Beautiful fans fed up with Taylor’s recent actions on the show

Taylor Hayes, in the latest episode of The Bold and The Beautiful which aired on December 19, 2024, has depicted herself as a strong opponent of Brooke Logan but is never tired of supporting Ridge Forrester and her daughter, Steffy. Instead of offering constructive advice, she has been blamed for abating the frustrations of Ridge and fueling the fire.

This criticism of Brooke's new status as the CEO of Forrester Creations has been termed divisive and unproductive, besides the critical commentary she has rendered on the company's changes in leadership.

The Bold and the Beautiful is one of those shows that have been on air since 1987, targeting audiences with dramatic twists, intense rivalries, and romantic entanglements. It has built a loyal fan base over the decades. Central to the series are the Forrester, Logan, and Spencer families, whose conflicts and alliances drive the drama.

The backlash against Taylor's recent actions is swift and vocal. There are comments flooding social media from viewers who are frustrated with Taylor's constant meddling. A lot of fans feel that Taylor's behavior has become obstructive from protective.

The Bold and The Beautiful: What's going on with Taylor? Is she helping or hurting?

Taylor Hayes has long been a cornerstone of emotional support for Ridge and the Forrester family, but her current position in their lives is taking an interesting turn. While Ridge wrestles with Brooke’s decision to take on the CEO role at Forrester Creations, Taylor has remained a steady, albeit conflicted, presence.

Her arrival at the Forrester mansion during a critical family meeting signals her ongoing commitment to the family’s welfare. However, Taylor’s observations about Brooke’s actions and Ridge’s repeated heartbreak hint at her growing distance from the drama.

Taylor’s expression of sorrow over the family's turmoil and her willingness to stay behind to comfort Ridge underscore her enduring care. Yet, she also appears to be subtly advocating for change. As Ridge vents his frustration over Brooke’s perceived betrayal, Taylor’s measured responses reflect a more mature perspective. She recognizes that Ridge’s repeated decisions to trust Brooke have led him to this point.

The current plot dynamics in The Bold and the Beautiful

The power play at Forrester Creations has gone fever pitch as Brooke Logan sits right at the middle of it on The Bold and the Beautiful. Accepting the position of CEO did not only thrust her into professional spotlight but directly puts her against Ridge, Steffy, and Eric.

This, combined with Brooke announcing her role publicly and the reinstatement of "Hope for the Future," has alienated the Forresters further, and viewers wonder if she's actually after stability in the company or a way to prove herself.

Meanwhile, Carter Walton’s alliance with Brooke and Hope Logan has sparked outrage among the Forrester family. Ridge’s accusation of betrayal and Steffy’s labeling of the situation as a hostile takeover encapsulate the rising tensions.

The drama is complicated by Eric's concern over the damage that might be done to Forrester's legacy. These conflicts show the cracks in the family, the battle between legacy and progress.

In the midst of this chaos, a private conversation with Zende reveals Brooke's internal conflict. As she is seen supporting the new leadership structure in public, she reveals to Zende that she has secretly planned to return Forrester Creations to Ridge.

Whether Brooke's plan works or backfires is left to the audience, but it does create a very interesting layer of intrigue in the story, keeping people glued to their seats.

Fans of The Bold and the Beautiful can catch the episodes on CBS every weekday.
