CBS's The Bold and The Beautiful premiered on March 23, 1987, and is set in Los Angeles. The show, which was created by Lee and William Bell, is mainly centered around the Forrester, Logan, and Spencer families. The Bold and The Beautiful has won numerous Daytime Emmy Awards, including the prestigious Outstanding Drama Series. Recently, on the show, Ridge Forrester was shown getting close to Taylor Hayes right after moving on from Brooke Logan.

Ridge's character on The Bold and The Beautiful has been shown to be involved in a love triangle between Brooke and Taylor, with him being unable to decide who he wants to have a relationship with and oscillating between the two women. Recently, after he left Brooke for Taylor again, fans were seemingly outraged.

Fans took to Facebook to voice their opinions about Ridge Forrester. Many added that he was disrespectful of Brooke and never deserved to be with her as she truly loved him. One fan called Peggy Fisher Miller said,

"He got over her quick, fast and in a hurry."

Fans also added that Ridge was the main problem, and his indecision to choose one woman shows that he does not respect either of them. Some fans called him a jerk and said he is not a Forrester by blood, and a true Forrester would never act this way.

Ridge Forrester's history of being unable to stick to his decision and giving hope to both Taylor and Brooke was also why the two women lost out on their thick friendship. Recent episodes of The Bold and The Beautiful showed Taylor Hayes confiding in her daughter Steffy that she was confident Ridge would return to her.

Meanwhile, Ridge was shown getting closer to Brooke right after sharing a passionate New Year's kiss with Taylor. The January 9, 2025, episode of the show revealed him moving on from Brooke Logan and deciding to start a relationship with Taylor.


Recent storylines on The Bold and The Beautiful

Recent plotlines on The Bold and The Beautiful showed Steffy Forrester stepping up to regain control of Forrester Creations from the Logans. She was shown planting her spy, Daphne Rose, inside the company in the guise of helping the company make their signature scent while she relayed all essential information back to Steffy.

Carter was shown outsmarting Steffy's ambitions to take back control by pushing forward the Hope For The Future (HFTF) fashion line, which was Hope's line but had been declining due to sales losses. This decision proved essential for the company, making Carter gain even more control than he previously had.

Bill Spencer's character on The Bold and The Beautiful was shown hiding Luna from Electra, hinting at potential issues between them. Hope Logan was shown comforting her mother after her heartbreak with Ridge and pushing her to continue her position as the CEO of Forrester Creations.
