Brooke and Katie Logan fired Electra Forrester in the recent episode on December 19, 2024. Katie was sent deepfake images of Electra from an anonymous source (who the audiences know is Remy). However, the two Logans did not tell Electra the reason that she was being fired, deepening the misunderstanding and the rift.

Fans of the soap seemed to take issue with this development, claiming that Electra deserved to know she was being let go from Forrester Creations, even after cementing her jewelry line there. Many netizens gathered in the comments section of a Facebook post to voice their thoughts:

Why did Electra get fired from Forrester Creations on The Bold and the Beautiful?

Electra Forrester got fired from Forrester Creations on The Bold and the Beautiful this week because of a man from her past: Remy Pryce. Remy edited deepfake pictures of Electra in revealing outfits and sent them across to Katie Logan. Since the Logans have taken over Forrester Creations, the jurisdiction of Electra's career lay in their hands.

When Katie saw the pictures, she was shocked and went to her sister Brooke for advice. The two discussed the fact that the company could not afford to have a scandal, especially after booting out the Forresters. They reached an agreement that they would need to let Electra go from the company.

Katie and Brooke spoke to Ivy Forrester about her niece and how they needed to fire her. Ivy was confused at this development since Electra had been doing well at the company and with her jewelry line. As Electra walked into the office, Katie told her that she wasn't a good fit for the company and told her that she was being let go.

Electra begged Katie and Brooke to tell her the reason that she was being fired, but the two women remained firm in their stance that she needed to pack her bags immediately with no further explanation. In tears, Electra found Will and explained the situation to him, mentioning that she was heartbroken that she wasn't even given a reason for her dismissal.

It is unclear what exactly transpired between Electra and Remy in the past. Electra confessed to Will that the two were friends back in high school, bonding over their love for science. She also said he was there for her during a difficult time in her life, and it would have been much more tricky for her if he hadn't been around. It remains to be seen how Remy navigates his position in Electra's life after this new development on The Bold and the Beautiful.
