THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Taylor Tells Li She’s Dying; as Fans Brace for Ridge to Marry Her as Her Last Wish
Even though on the Friday, September 20th episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Taylor (Rebecca Budig) tells Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) that she did not come back to Los Angeles to get close to Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), she tells her frenemy that she came back to be close to her family, namely her daughter, and as mother she is sure Brooke can understand that.
Brooke asks, “Does this mean you and I can be friends?” We don’t know how Brooke will feel about that if the fans of the series predictions ring true. Brooke may get cast aside by Ridge so he can help Taylor have her ‘dying’ wish.
Later in the episode, Taylor reveals what everyone suspect that she is dying. She tells Li (Naomi Matsuda), in a private conversation at the cliff house, she is dying of heart failure, a diagnosis she found out while she was away in Europe.

While the revelation came as basically no surprise to viewers who were teased with something was up with Taylor when the show recast the character with All My Children an General Hospital favorite, Rebecca Budig, they are also suspecting that Ridge will want to make her last months on earth a happy one by remarrying her.
Taylor was trending on X on Friday after the reveal came to light and confirmation that the character was dying. Fans also speculated that Ridge and Taylor would be back together, get married, only to find out that Finn (Tanner Novlan) finds the cure and saves her life, meaning Brooke will be the odd-woman out, furthering the on-going triangle that has gone on for decades and with different actresses playing Dr. Hayes.

This week, also featured Ridge and Taylor in a heartfelt scene where they actually talked about the death and missing their daughter, Phoebe Forrester (Mackenzie Mauzy) who died in a car accident back in 2008 and shared their grief.

So what is your prediction? Will Taylor get back with Ridge, only to live after all, or do you think Rebecca Budig is only on the canvas for a shorter term? Comment below! But first check out this scene featuring Ridge and Taylor.
Omg please with this storyline bring Luna and the cage back I am not vibing at all on this Taylor recast
This is as bad as Ingo Rademacher playing Thorne for a year. Please tell me where MA/Thomas is???
I’m sick of this same ole crap same ole story line every few months. If this happens where they remarry I’m so done with this show. Taylor should have stayed off the show
I agree with you, Richard.
So sick of Taylor and her sanctimonious daughter
I agree. It’s why I stopped watching the show months ago. I see not much has changed in the time I’ve been gone.
We’ve been down this tired road. Are you kidding? This triangle is so yesterday and has flip flopped way too many times to have suspense or genuine meaning. And they aren’t likable characters anymore. If Hunter Tylo returned, then there would be a bit of nostalgia with it. There’s nothing fun about watching 60ish people act like wimpy teens, especially of they are so accomplished.
I agree they should have left Taylor off the show
Please take Taylor back off she is soooooo annoying
Nooooo keep her on we love taylor
We may as well just watch cartoons as these episodes are getting ridiculous. Having we seen this over, over and over.
Give us something worth watching writers!!!!!
Please and thank you
I don’t like the new Taylor, she looks like Steffy’s sister, not mother. Let’s not revisit the
Brooke/Taylor saga. Ridge fawns over Taylor like a love sick puppy and he’s supposed to love Brooke. I’ve been watching the show since the beginning, and this gets ridiculous. Let’s have some story lines that make sense and that are plausible.
agree
I agree with Joyce Marston
I feel the same way.
I Agree!
Well said and am in agreement with all
Yes she is sticking her nose into thing at FC where she has no say saying how great Steffy is at CEO when she’s blackmailing Hope , stay away from Finn or HFTF is over , personal grievances at work ?? She should be fired for this and I hope Brooke acts on it eventually
I love the show right in spite having to look at a Logan on a daily basis. Go ahead and choose to not look at it while Taylo is on there. I promise you I won’t miss any of you. Hahaha
Steffy have the right to warn hope about her husband. She is not blackmailing her. It’s not against the law to tell someone they will be fired if they cross a line. There are moral claws against things like this at work
I’m so over Steffy
I don’t understand Steffy’s indignation about the kiss , when she’s kissed Liam several times ?? What’s good for the goose is good for the gander! Why is that ok ???
Taylor had her fun brook should stay with ridge and have fun with Steph or and hope
Personally I don’t like Steph or she is to fake
I hope she sticks around and they get married again never liked Brooke
I agree
PLEASE DONT bring Taylors story line back. We have seen too many times. RIDGE is so Wishy-washy. He don’t what he wants. I will not watch it anymore Taylor continues on Bold n Beautiful.
I’ve watching this for years, but will cut this off like I cut off Y&R.
I think she is faking because she wants ridge all to herself she don’t want Brooke to have him at all
I totally agree. I don’t trust Taylor. She’s proven she can be a snake.
I will not watch Bold and the Beautiful any more if Ridge and Taylor remarry this has happened to many times we are tried of the old thing happening over and over again. Get a new writer can’t you all think of something else.
I pray they Taylor off the show period. What if she gets cured and leave Brooke all along besides Brooke has been really nice this time to Taylor since she’s been back. Ridge has just not been sp6anytime with Brooke much. He’s being touching and rubbing on Taylor from day 1. She always around him hugging and kisses on someone else’s man like Hope with Finn. My question as a wife or woman period is this right what Taylor is doing ? How would you personally feel? I don’t like it or apologize it.
I do not llke Taylor at all. Ridge and Brooke should get married and set a good example for their children in staying together and working things out. Take Taylor off the show!
Really!!!! Taylor needs to go away, so tired of the 3 ring circus!!!
Hey…here’s an idea: If Taylor is actually dying…OK…whatever. But…if this is just an annoying storyline ploy (or whatever), cut Rebecca Budig loose already and bring in another actress that strongly resembles the character of Taylor. PRONTO!!!!!!!!!!
They haven’t known how to write for Taylor for years now so I bet they do kill her off.
Brad Bell loves KKL and will do anything to keep her front and center no matter how awful she is.
Yea, his crush on her is ruining the soap! Same ole crap, logans logans, its forester creations not logan hoes. Retire brooke already
Ridge will marry Taylor and for her last days and happiest and then she will have a miracle recovery leaving Brooke or Ridges new dumping , but Brooke this time , can’t you tell , when they are saying how their history is !!
I do not like, yet again , the idea of Taylor and Ridge acting like they are married. Brooke should dump him for good and end this on going ridiculous story line.
I haven’t watched in a while due to work and recently picked up again …. it’s like no time had passed, pretty much the same storyline even between Hope, Steffy and Liam the dynamic is the same …. To the point where I can could write it!! (or do better) ✍️
So here is my thought. I believe that yes Taylor and Ridge will marry because she is dying(Brooke will allow it as her and Taylor are now friends). Taylor will be on death bed waiting a heart transplant ( will she make it??? Depends on how receptive fans are to Rebecca’s Taylor) if she makes it it is because Carter died(since he is leaving for a new soap) and Taylor recovers Carter’s heart.
PS to Steffy….Fin did not kiss hope back….but you kissed Liam back twice
So what about finding a guy like him and all those back and shoulder rubs of course she kissed him he lead her on
I hope not she needs to be gone. Anyone that uses her illness to get what she wants is pretty bad. Never liked Taylor or Steffy they are trouble makers and control freaks.
At least they dont use s.x and their bodies to get what they want! They are no better than any of the rest
I really miss the original Taylor, Hunter Tylo. Something should have been done to keep her in. So beautiful and so many years with the soap. An icon. Sad .
Needs the original Hunter Tylo back.
Where’s Hunter ?
I would love to see more of Taylor she should stay on she might be a different star but it happens all the time so let’s keep her and I so wish ridge could find her attractive but if you don’t mind find her someone new that would spin ridge ‘s head that would be fun
I want ridge and taylor to get back together is there time
Take Taylor off, for good. Brooke and Ridge are happy. Bring Thomas back for Hope. Put some excitement in show.
First off don’t care for the recast of Taylor. She doesn’t even resemble her daughter Steffy as the original Taylor did. I think they should just have Ridge he close to her and help her through her diagnosis. Why push Brook aside, confide in her and also let her help. Then Taylor has two people to lean on. It would not surprise me if they find a way to save Taylor in the end, but maybe not……up to the writers.
Luna will get the death penalty, she will donate her heart and it will go to save Taylor. The feud lives on
Brooke and Ridge are still married. So he can’t marry Taylor. Taylor needs to leave the show and go back to General Hospital and be with her show daughter
Welp, I have better things to do with my Time then to watch another Brooke Ridge Taylor triangle especially when we know the end result someone will find a miracle cure for Taylor after her and Ridge are remarried blah blah blah sanctimonious Stephanie, who has kissed Liam how many times will be in La La Land. This story is so predictable and tune back in when somebody decides the nine lives of these three people are enough
Can we find another male besides Ridge For Brooke? one with some chemistry so she can tell Taylor have at it with Ridge And then Taylor will want that person, ridge needs to be left out in the cold for a while since he’s so good at dumping women, Why not bring back the other Marone brother? The funny thing is all these Privileged Kids by Taylor are not real Foresters… Did we forget that?
This is the most disturbing crazy trio ever, and soap opera history. I don’t even know why they Back just to get on everybody’s nerve. The fact that her and her daughter they they are not hoes as a claim. Brooke and Hope are really crazy. They act like they don’t remember when they was messing with these two women’s men in the first place now she’s dying and Ridgeback, a dying wish wow. You need to come up with a new storyline because I am so sick and tired of the Brooke and Taylor saga especially the Stephanie and Hope Stephanie act like she is on site when she was messing with Hope’s husband Hope’s boyfriend you took who in the hell wants to keep going back-and-forth with the same people over and over again stop please bring a new storyline cause this one is going crazy, that’s why I stop looking at this show months ago. Try something new people give these people new people deal with not the same man he can’t be that Great
Please give us a reason to keep watching! I saw the very first episode back in 1987 and the Ridge-Taylor-Brooke situation is getting pretty old! Taylor and Steffy always get their way and Hope and Brooke are always the underdogs. Please change it up so there will be a reason to watch the next episode!!
Where is luna? I would think a trial is in order!
Taylor dying is for the best this bs needs to end.karma for her killing Darla .
General Hospital
Could Kristen Vaganos and Josh Kelly Be Exiting ‘General Hospital?’

General Hospital fans took to social media following the airing of the Wednesday, October 21 episode of the ABC daytime drama series. In story, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) reveals to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) that she has received an offer to join the top law firm in Chicago that practices civil law. She says it’s her dream job.
The problem Molly says is relocating from Port Charles and uprooting her life and being away from her mother, Scout and boyfriend Cody Bell (Josh Kelly). Wistful that she may lose another daughter to a long-distance situation (Kristina left a few months back to go to medical school in California), Alexis urged Molly to get Cody to go with her.
Molly still seemed concerned and has trouble committing to the idea. Alexis tells her to talk it over with Cody. Meanwhile, Cody asked Tracy (Jane Elliot) is he can have Thanksgiving off because he and Molly planned to spend Thanksgiving together with their families. After initially balking, Tracy agrees.

WILL MOLLY AND CODY HEAD TO CHI-TOWN?
Later, Cody shows up at Miller & Davis and the conversation turned to Thanksgiving dinner that Alexis is hosting. Molly and Cody asked her not to cook anything. Cody hugged Molly reassuring Alexis that he and Molly would take care of whatever was needed on Turkey Day.
So, this raises the question, why out of nowhere are we learning that Molly received an amazing law offer in Chicago, if the character was not being written out? If Molly leaves the canvas, would the character of Cody make his exit too?
Kristen Vaganos joined GH as a recast Molly Lansing-Davis back in September of 2023 and went on contract in August of 2024. Josh Kelly began playing Cody Bell back in June of 2022. Initial reports were that Kelly joined the show on contract and then as of June 2025 went on recurring status with the show per his choice.
Do you see a world where GH is writing out Molly and Cody? Would you be sad to see Kristen and Josh exit the soap opera? If this is not what is going on, is this just a plot point for some other story that is upcoming? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.

THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Adam Delivers Sally’s Baby as Billy Reels from Jill’s Health Crisis in Tearjerker Episode

The Tuesday, October 20 episode saw The Young and the Restless deliver some deeply-poignant moments in the aftermath of Billy (Jason Thompson) and Sally’s (Courtney Hope) wedding.
The scenes which will be talked about for some time to come, because of how they can impact longterm story, had Adam (Mark Grossman) being the one to deliver Billy and Sally’s baby, while Billy was gut-punched by a phone call from Snapper Foster that Jill had suffered a heart attack in London.
In story, while up in Sally’s room at the GCAC, wishing his ex all the happiness, (because Adam and Billy have no love lost, and he didn’t want to cause waves), Sally’s water broke. In true soapy fashion, all phones were dead. Sally’s phone was missing because it was with Audra (Zuleyka Silver), Adam’s battery ran out etc. Prior to that, Adam did try to call Billy, but Billy did not pick up his calls, as he was with Cane (Billy Flynn) coming to terms with the news on Jill.

TORN BETWEEN RUNNING TO HIS MOTHER OR HIS NEW WIFE AND BABY
Now in the perfect storm of circumstances, Adam is the one to help Sally deliver her baby when she begged him to stay with er screaming, “Please don’t make me do this alone!” Adam reminded Sally that he’d already delivered a baby twice before. She assured him that it will be OK, and not to be scared, because this isn’t the same set of circumstances when she lost their daughter, Ava, during childbirth.
Downstairs, Billy is in tears over his mother. So too is Cane. Cane speaks to Jill on the phone when Snapper holds the phone to her while at her hospital bed. He tells her he loves her. Billy cannot bring himself to talk to his mom.
Cane decides he will go to London. Billy doesn’t know what to do with a new wife and a baby on the way. It’s clear how much losing Jill would devastate Billy. Cane tells Lily (Christel Khalil) what has happened to Jill, and Billy informs Jack (Peter Bergman) before he tries to find his bride who is upstairs in her room.

A NEW ABBOTT
Back in Sally’s room, eventually Adam asks Sally (who is deep in labor), if she thought she was having a girl or boy, and she said a boy. But then, Adam introduced her to her “beautiful, perfect baby girl.” It was a moment laced with so much history for Adam and Sally and Adam and Billy, when you think of the deaths of Ava and Deliah.
As Sally cradled her newborn little bundle of joy, Adam went to go get Billy at her request, and as he made his way to the door, Billy was standing there. Billy is stunned to see his rival standing, but then Sally tells Billy to meet his daughter!
Billy rushes to the bedside to be my his new wife and daughter, with the heartbreaking final shot of Adam emotionally overcome thinking of the baby he has lost with Sally. and how he wishes things could have turned out differently in a bittersweet moment.

EMOTIONAL PERFORMANCES

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Finn Blows a Gasket After Steffy Reveals She’s Gone Ahead and Become Carter and Daphne’s Surrogate

On the Monday, October 19 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, after Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) stammering around and trying to find a way to couch her lie to her husband, Finn (Tanner Novlan), she finally admits what she has been dreading telling him.
But not before, Finn and Steffy rehash Monaco, Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown), and how it was turning point in their lives (that’s an understatement) with Finn reiterating, “Our marriage is precious. What we have is pure and true.”
Finn promises Sheila is out of their lives for good, and Steffy chokes back tears saying how she wished she hadn’t removed her ring and hightailed it out of Monaco. She says she wishes she could take that back, but she can’t.

Steffy tells Finn she has a lot to say. Finn tells her there is nothing they can’t overcome. Steffy says she made a significant decision while he was away. She goes to to say what a great friend Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) has been to her. Finn asks if Daphne and Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) are still interviewing to find a surrogate? Steffy says they found someone and the process has begun, and its “me.”
Finn gulps, “What do you mean it’s you?” Steffy eeks out of her mouth, “I agreed to be Daphne and Carter’s surrogate.” Finn, who is a doctor no less says, “I don’t understand!” He explains he knows there is a list of medical and legal hurdles someone has to go through before a woman can become a surrogate for a couple. He also tells Steffy he knows she could never carry a child and give it up.
Next, Finn tells Steffy she’s wonderful for considering to do this for Carter and Daphne, but she’ll have to tell them no. Steffy says it’s too late. That while he was out of town they went ahead with the procedure. Finn asks, “What procedure?” Steffy responds, “The fertilization of the eggs.” Finn learns they used Steffy’s frozen eggs and did the implantation and loses it!
“I can’t believe you went and did that! This isn’t something a wife does when their husband is out of town on a business trip,” hollers Finn. He cannot believe what he is hearing and that his wife just went and did this without him! He pushes back on Steffy. demanding answers, “There’s more going on here. What is it? Steffy? Tell me!” We fade to black.
You can check out the pivotal scene between Finn and Steffy below.
Now weigh-in: are you glad Finn is as of now not being a doofus? That he is pushy back on Steffy? Do you think Steffy will continue with this lie or admit she slept with Carter and became pregnant? Either way, would Finn stay with his wife while she became a surrogate for Carter and Daphne? Let us know in the comment section.
