Brooke explained the Forresters want the latest collection to stay with the buyers and they won't want to employ Danny's celebrity image to help them.

Soon, Brooke, and later Steffy, announced the new partnership and welcomed Christine and Danny.

Going by the new partnership in the storyline, Danny may continue to be part of The Bold and the Beautiful in the future, at least in recurring appearances.

Danny Romalotti, who was recently seen on The Bold and the Beautiful, was introduced on its sister show, The Young and the Restless. Portrayed by Michael Damian, Danny debuted on Y&R in 1981 as a 16-year-old rockstar in Genoa City. With friends like Traci Abbott, Lauren Fenmore, Amy Lewis, and his sister, Gina Roma, his group performed on stages in the city and on tours.

In 1987, his estranged father, Brian Romalotti, arrived in the city, renamed Rex Sterling, and transformed into a good person. Soon, Rex developed a good relationship with Danny and Gina. Danny developed a close friendship with Cricket Blair, or as she was later called Christine. They married in 1990 but divorced in 1994 because of Danny's extensive tours and Phyllis's scheming.

Danny was forced to marry Phyllis after she manipulated him into getting her pregnant. However, after divorcing her in 1996, he remarried her because of their son, Daniel's ill health. After learning that Daniel was not his biological son, Danny divorced Phyllis again, but Christine, his attorney, helped him win Daniel's custody.

Over the years, Danny made repeated trips to Genoa City while he started living in Malibu, California. His relationship with Daniel Jr. also became strained while Christine remained his friend and attorney. With Danny, Christine seems to have made a crossover to The Bold and the Beautiful.


Look out for Danny's musical performance on The Bold and the Beautiful on CBS.
