Bold and the Beautiful has Taylor Hayes looking more desperate about Brooke Logan getting between her and Ridge Forrester next week on the CBS soap. And she’s taking matters into her own hands with a little help from Nick Marone.
Bold and the Beautiful: Taylor Hayes Worried Over Brooke Logan’s Next Move
Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) got a visit from Nick Marone (Jack Wagner) last week on The Bold and the Beautiful. He taunted Taylor about the possibility of Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) moving in on Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) while they were away in Italy.
While Taylor first puts on a false front of not being worried about Brooke’s moves, it is easy to see she’s not secure at all about her rival and Ridge. She tells Nick that she is confident that Ridge won’t sway, but Nick can see that she doesn’t believe that.
So, Taylor finally drops that stoic stance and presents a plan to Nick last week on Bold and the Beautiful. Taylor wants Brooke to end up in Marone’s arms. This brings us to next week when Taylor and Nick conspire to keep Ridge and Taylor’s relationship safe while Ridge is in Italy with Brooke and Eric Forrester (John McCook).
B&B: Ridge Forrester Hears Eric Forrester’s Predictions
At Forrester Creations last week on Bold and the Beautiful, Eric hammers at Ridge about the possibility of losing Brooke forever. Eric adores Taylor, but he still believes Brooke is his son’s true love.
Ridge bucks his father all the way. He continues his spiel about being committed to Taylor, and that is it as far as Ridge is concerned. Even if Ridge is tempted to go back to Brooke, he has the other members of his family to think about. Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) would be devastated. But Eric covers that nicely by saying they are adults, and the heart wants what the heart wants.
And one of the reasons he has offered for sticking with his commitment to Taylor on Bold and the Beautiful is that she is honest with him. She doesn’t play the games that Brooke Logan has in the past. But Taylor is about to tarnish that thought for Ridge.
Bold and the Beautiful: Ridge Furious as Taylor Uses Brooke’s Playbook
Bold and the Beautiful has a desperate Taylor Hayes joining forces with Nick Marone behind Ridge and Brooke’s backs. This is the kind of stuff that Brooke would do, and Ridge didn’t like it.
Taylor’s honesty was pretty much the foundation for him choosing Taylor over Brooke. Especially after he thought Brooke betrayed him by joining the Forrester Creations takeover.
But on Bold and the Beautiful last week, Eric told his son he was wrong about Brooke’s intentions. She was trying to get the company back for the Forrester family. Now with Taylor in cahoots with Nick, this could blow up in Taylor’s face.
B&B: Taylor Unintentionally Gives Brooke a Path Back to Ridge
Ridge Forrester has made no secret on Bold and Beautiful of his hatred for Nick Marone. And he’s discussed how he despises the guy many times with Taylor. Ridge also made himself very clear that he doesn’t want Nick on their Italy trip.
Taylor went against Ridge’s wishes by asking Nick to go and keep Brooke occupied. Bold and the Beautiful previews have Nick in Italy with Brooke, Ridge, and Eric next week. So, it looks like Taylor got her way.
Bold and the Beautiful will likely have Ridge find out from Nick spilling the beans to Brooke that Taylor wanted him on the trip. This gives Brooke the best ammunition yet for Ridge to break off his engagement to Taylor and come back to her.
All Brooke needs to do is remind Ridge why he ran to Taylor in the first place. He thought she conspired behind his back in the takeover. But now Taylor is doing the same thing, conspiring behind his back with Nick. As she asked Marone to be her watchdog in Italy.
This theory of a storyline would give Ridge the out he needs to call off his engagement to Taylor Hayes and head back to Brooke Logan. Fans assume if this is the way B&B plays it out, we will see a very relieved Ridge Forrester, as he knows his father was right on the CBS soap.
