The Bold and the Beautiful March 27, 2025 recap

The March 27 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful aired as the show’s first-ever all-women episode, written and directed by Heather Tom. The drama kicked off with Hope storming into Brooke’s house, furious that her mother had taken the CEO position at Forrester just to hand it back to Ridge.
Hope, already crushed by her breakup with Carter and the shutdown of her fashion line, felt betrayed by Brooke siding with the Forresters again. Brooke defended herself, saying she did it for Ridge and the company’s legacy, but Hope wasn’t buying it.
The argument escalated fast. Hope threw every past mistake Brooke ever made back at her—begging Ridge for love, putting him above family, never backing Hope when it counted. Brooke snapped and told Hope she was no longer her daughter, which hit the latter hard.
Hope raised her hand to strike Brooke, but Katie rushed in and stopped her just in time. Hope broke down in her mother’s arms, apologizing and saying she felt like she had lost everything.
Meanwhile, at the cliff house, Steffy and Taylor celebrated Ridge’s decision to reunite with Taylor. They toasted with root beer floats and laughed over how things had finally turned in their favor.

Taylor said she felt like her heart had finally healed. Steffy even said it felt like justice had been served—Hope was out, Carter stayed, and Ridge was home. The episode made space for raw conflict, quiet celebration, and family divides, all in 18 minutes of pure drama, with no male characters on screen.
Fans can stream the episode on Paramount+ or watch it again on CBS.
