THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Caroline Spills The Beans To Ridge: "I'm Pregnant!"
Courtesy/CBS
An emotionally drained Caroline (Linsey Godfrey), who now truly needs some tranquilizers to calm down, confessed to Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) on a pivotal episode of The Bold and the Beautiful!
Monday’s episode featured the continuation of last Friday’s cliffhanger, where Caroline in a let-it-all-out purge, revealed to Ridge that first, she had slept with his son, Thomas (Pierson Fode). But after trying to recover from that stinger, Ridge the second part of the secret that Caroline is harboring … she’s pregnant and Thomas is the father! After all, Caroline just learned Ridge had a vasectomy and cannot father a child.
Deciminated by the news that his son had sex with his wife, and now is the father of the baby she is carrying, Ridge falls to the floor. Making this all the more a punch-to-the-gut is that shortly before meeting up with Caroline, Thomas punched Ridge in the face. That went down after a heated father and son had a verbal assault that led to the game-changer between the two Forrester men.
Watch Caroline spill the beans to Ridge after the jump! Let us know what you thought of the performances, once again, of Linsey Godfrey and Thorsten Kaye, who just may have their Emmy competition submission tapes. Then in story, how do you think this will play out? What will this couple do now that Ridge knows Thomas is the baby daddy? Will Thomas ever know? Share your thoughts below!
It looks like the current run of Lucas Adams (Noah) and Tamara Braun (Sienna) on The Young and the Restless is coming to an end, after the Monday, August 3 edition of the CBS daytime drama revealed that Noah and Sienna are leaving Genoa City and heading back to Los Angeles.
In the storyline, Noah informed his mother, Sharon (Sharon Case) and half-sister Mariah (Camryn Grimes) that he and Sienna made the decision to move back to the West Coast to put distance between themselves and Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). Although Noah did not say it was a permanent move, he did assure his mom that once Matt is hopefully gone from Genoa City they could return.
However, as previewed already on the video teaser for this week’s episodes of Y&R (see below), it appears Noah left Genoa City’s The Shadow Room to be run by a returning Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian). So with that, coupled with today’s episode, it would appear the move could wind up being more permanent.

COMINGS AND GOINGS
Adams made his Y&R debut on November 4, 2025 as the successor to Rory Gibson who last played Noah on-screen in April of 2023. Earlier in 2025, Gibson took over the role of Michael Corinthos on Genera Hospital replacing Chad Duell, who stepped away from the part after 15 years.
Braun who played Adam’s mother on Days of Our Lives when she was Ava Vitali and he was Tripp Dalton, first appeared on Y&R back on October 14, 2025, where we soon learned she had become Noah’s lover as the new character, Sienna Bacall. It should be noted, Adams was on contract with the number #1 soap, while Braun has been on recurring status.
With Josh Griffith now exited as head writer of The Young and the Restless, and the newly announced co-head writing team of Jamey Giddens and Dan O’Connor having taken his place and starting their new tenure this week, it will be interesting to see how the duo resets the show, and if a Noah and Sienna return is in the cards for the future or not.
So, what do you think about the seeming departures of Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun from The Young and the Restless? Weigh-in via the comment section. But first, check out our recent live chat with Tamara and Lucas on the Michael Fairman Channel.
Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.
The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.
The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW
As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.
O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”
Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”
You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.
Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.

It is high drama but maybe this is what happens when you marry your late wife’s niece on the rebound from her marriage to your stepbrother/stepson and your on-and-off marriages with said stepbrother/stepson’s mother (also the ex-wife of your in-name-only father). Oh, and now that your son is father to your new wife’s (his stepaunt) baby, you could be both grandfather and stepdad to the child! (And remember the rumor your son had that crazyberries affair with your ex-wife!).
Did I remember all that correctly?
Sigh.
Rick and Ridge have the same father–they are half-brothers. Yeah, yeah, I know Massimo is really Ridge’s father, but Eric raised Ridge and considers him his son so I consider Ridge Eric’s son, not his stepson.
Half-brothers, yes, I stand corrected, Mo. Still one amazing mess of a family tree. More of a family bramble!
LOL!! You nailed it. Thanks for sharing:)
Well Done, Iakovos! What is amazing is that I, and most of us, could follow and understand your explanation 🙂
I was glad to see that BandB didn’t drag this story out but gave it a huge 2-part punch, starting last Friday. Now that the truth is out between Ridge & Caroline, I wonder if they’ll let Thomas in on the truth or pass off baby-Forrester as Ridge’s child. Maybe Caroline’s guilt will drive her to go along w/a plan like this. Both actors were wonderful in the scene, but I think the moment belonged to Linsey Godfrey.
WONDERFUL ACTING —BOTH ACTORS!!!!!
Agreed. Linsey should put in for lead actress in the Emmy’s.
The acting was exceptional but the story is awful. I can’t help but think that this baby will end up being Ridge’s, not because B&B thinks that Caroline and Ridge belong together, but because there is so much disgust from the audience over what Thomas did. I’m not taking any sides here, and I know that all three characters played a role in the situation being what it is, but fan reaction is very vocal against Thomas’ behavior that night and now Ridge is saying what a lot of fans have been screaming. I can’t see B&B rewarding Thomas with a baby. I may be wrong but the story will probably be very predictable with Ridge being the father of the miracle baby despite what the doctor said. What’s worse is that B&B is saddled with this story for at least a few months until Caroline gives birth, assuming that B&B goes ahead with the pregnancy storyline. I’d much rather see B&B focus on the creation of a new fashion company to rival Forrester.
B and B has years to keep this baby’s paternity in play if they want. I do agree that it will *probably* be Ridge’s baby sooner rather than later, as a lot of viewers point out that Ridge never had a second opinion etc.
But, Y&R kept Summer’s paternity in question forever…18 years? before the final determination.
I don’t think the Thomas/Caroline one-nighter was as god awful as some people do. So, it doesn’t seem like a ” reward” for Thomas to me. And, I am not a fan of this Ridge at all, so that may influence me 🙂
Michael, I think it’s high time you interview those 2. 😉
I was at the edge of my seat watching Ridge and Caroline on both Friday’s and Monday’s show. This is what soaps are all about! Wonderful performances and I hope they get the recognition they deserve, especially Thorsten Kaye who has been overlooked for so many years!
I was pleasantly surprised that they didn’t drag this out and had Caroline confess it all, not because she was threatened but because she thought it was the right thing to do. The other soaps should take notes (GH, I’m looking at you!)
As a huge fan of the Ridge/Caroline pairing I just want them to face whatever is coming up together, whatever that may be.
So heartbreaking.
I don’t like that they are making it Thomas’ baby, but I’m hoping that it is a mistake.
I think Ridge will ask Caroline to lie and say it is his (Ridge) baby.
Caroline also needs to realize it was rape.
OMG I hope Ridge & Caroline make a pack to keep it to themselves and raise the child as their’s. As for noisy Brooke Ridge can tell her the test came back and he’s able to father a child after all. Please don’t break these two up.
As twisted as the situation is this is classic soap and the reveal was great drama. October and November are favorite months to watch soaps– never dull moment until Thanksgiving
Linsey(Caroline) did such an Amazing job! I wonder if Thomas will find out it’s his baby?
Ridge should think back to when he slept with his father’s wife Brook and “Whoa ” RJ was produce. There is and old saying You Reep What You So!!!!! I know they will make this a Ridge baby until Thomas let out to Brooke that he slept with Caroline and she put together that ridge is not the father but Thomas is..
