THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Will Eric Reverse His Decision And Make Rick CEO Now That Maya Spilled The Beans On Ridge and Caroline?
Courtesy/CBS
As we go into Monday’s episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, there is plenty of story to unfold as all hell broke loose on Friday’s cliffhanger episode of the CBS soap, after Eric (John McCook) named Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) the new CEO of Forrester Creations over his other son, Rick (Jacob Young)!
After citing how fantastically talented Ridge is as a designer, Eric gives the top spot of the company to Ridge and makes Rick, the president. However, Rick is devastated to not be chosen after he has proved his worth as a very successful businessman and asset for the company.
But leave it to pot-stirrer Maya (Karla Mosley) to turn this into one big Forrester mess! Knowing that Ridge and Caroline (Linsey Godfrey) have shared some intimate moments, she blurts out: “I’m sorry, Rick. But you need to know what you wife is doing back behind your back .., and on hers!” And with that and more, Maya reveals that Ridge and Caroline have been having an affair. Next, when push came to shove, Caroline tells Rick that Ridge and her shared just a few kisses. Rick is shocked, and devastated again, that Caroline of all people would now be smooching his brother, the one guy he has this long-standing contentious relationship with!
Looks like Maya is well on her way to getting her claws back into Rick! Kudos to Jacob Young during all the scenes on Friday’s episode as we felt Rick’s disappointment and pain!
Now the question remains … will Eric change his tune and reverse his decision and name Rick the new Forrester CEO? Or, will Ridge somehow end up staying in the spot? Watch a preview for Monday’s episode of B&B after the jump and then share your thoughts on the matter!
Jacob is a tremendously gifted actor. I know what his characters are feeling before he says a word, because his face says it all. The devastation he felt when Caroline confirmed everything Maya had been telling him for weeks was there. The pain in his voice when he learned she’s been intimate with not only his brother, but his archrival.. saddened me. Betrayal is a hard blow especially when it’s handed to you by someone you love and trust very much. Rick turned to her when he thought Maya (the woman he loved) was lost to him. He put a lot of trust into Caroline again, and she does this.
I’ve never wanted the two together because I like him better with Maya, and (fingers crossed) I may get the chance to see then reunited after this. Caroline and Rick fans are upset, but Raya’s fans are rejoicing. Lol
Maya Get paws off rick.right now who think you are never be his partner or his lover please
Quit this job not working out for you. Find another job. Leave rick alone get that grow up
Start clean your mess up He is married. Man. Iam not huge fan You are horn cow crazy silly
Girl Live on wrong path from Aimee mason
I’m happy that Maya spilled the beans on Caro/Ridge, but I hope Rick doesn’t go running into Maya arms, her reasons for wanting to be with him is tasteless and disgusting. The only thing she’s in love with is the Frorester name and where it can get her. I don’t know why the writers decided to change her character, I’m not liking it at all.
Did you forget that Maya loved Rick before she knew who he was!
Why didn’t Caroline just lie???!!!!! Feel bad for Rick, but hope he and Caroline can overcome this. Of course, Katie might not be so forgiving.
Ridge came back to town for Brook. Katie tried everything she could do to get Bill & Brook together. Once they had an affair she hollowed over it and went for Ridge. I never felt that was fair so I would love to see Caroline & Ridge together, Rick with Maya, and I think Ridge & Caroline could run Forester together. If Eric changes his mind I would love to see Ridge & Caroline start their own company and become competitive with Forester like when Sally Spectra was on the show.
I hope Katie is not so forgiving. I also hope that Ridge pursues Caroline because he just can’t help himself. It looks like his feelings for her are more real than he expected.
Oh how I hope your right. Maybe she makes him remember his first love Caroline before Brook.
Oh did Baby boy Rick get his feelings hurt? As for Ridge & Katie the fact she is still wearing a string for a ring says it all. Where is the true heir Thorne?
I like the idea of Thorne being CEO. That would put a sticker in Ridge and Rick’s balloon.
It doesn’t really make any difference who runs the business (maybe they should have co-bosses) but I have to ask one question…why was Maya at the meeting. She isn’t a Forrester or even married to one? She is just a trouble-maker like Wyatt and his crazy mom.
Even in the business realm, Brad Bell has to have a triangle– I have lost count the number of times Eric named one of his two sons CEO– back and forth, back and forth. Does it matter which one is named, because eventually Eric has to come back when the infighting becomes too much—
Agree I sure miss the days of Sally Spectra and the gang! Everybody always goes on and on about SF/ Stephanie but boy Darlene Conley is sure missed also. What a loss to daytime when DC passed away she was a super lady!
I don’t believe that Maya should have the chance again with Rick, I think Rick should work his problems between him and Caroline, because of Ridge, which instigated the whole thing because of his own actions of his selfishness. Maya had her chance and she blew it. I think if Caroline came up pregnant things in the family would change.
Please remember that Maya knew nothing o f who Rick was when they met…until further down the road, by then Rick was head over heels for Maya and Maya knew nothing of Rick liking Caroline. ..and remember how cruel Caroline treated Maya…think back…Caroline took advantage of Maya pretending to wanting to help Maya further her career as an actress…she did some evil things to Maya…Maya is in love with Rick. He just happened to have money and the name Forrester..the girl ain’t crazy. ..plus she really fell for him when she thought he had nothing. This for those who have forgotten. ..pay back is a b.t.ch!
LaVerne…yes…THANK YOU!!!!! As far as I’m concerned, Maya never stopped loving Rick. Also, Carter is a cool dude and all but I don’t think that Maya will ever love Carter the way that she loves Rick. Nope. LaVerne…remember when Caroline tried to use Carter in her schemes against Maya??? To me, Caroline is nothing but a SPOILED ICE-PRINCESS!!!!! Therefore, Maya dropped her little bombshell (or whatever) about Ridge and Caroline at THE RIGHT TIME!!!!! PERFECT TIMING PERIOD!!!!! Bottom Line Here: Maya UNCONDITIONALLY LOVES Rick for who he is as a P-E-R-S-O-N…Caroline DOES NOT!!!!!!!
So on point ladies!!!!
Maya is a trouble maker, she should have not been at the meeting. I hope Rick forgives Caroline and Maya is fired. Another think off topic, all the views of LA before the show begins is annoying. It takes 2 or 3 minutes off the show. If we want to see LA we will go there.
Agree. What the heck was a model doing at an executive meeting EVER. None of the other models were there….used to like the Maya character, now I can’t stand her….oh well…
Half of them had no business at the meeting! You must not remember Caroline is a busy body trouble maker as well! She got what she deserved!
Ricks reaction i thnk was more to the effect of not getting CEO, then Mayas words just gave him the reason to have the outburst. A few kisses…ok while not a good thing, at least Caroline didnt hit the sheets! It was a silly crush….and she acted on it but Ridge used that to his advantage. He played dirty and got what he wanted. Maya played dirty as well. Sorry but I see nothing good coming of Rick and Maya….never liked them together and she is an opportunist, Caroline isnt. Maya is a user. People have been forgiven for way more than a few kisses. I hope to see Ridge lose his seat as CEO….otherwise Rick should just say buh bye!! Rick is about running a company and doing the best for it, Ridge is about ego and power. Caroline hated herself, and clearly walked away from him at Big Bear. Haha, wonder if this will now become the Katie show when her claws come out.
Woohoo Rick and Maya. When they are together there is true oassion. When Rick is with Caroline she is the opportunist spoiled white girl who steamrolls over pwople. Always lectured maya about how she made poor decisions. Checkmate blondie. She thinks she is betther than Maya because she is a white blonde spoiled brat. Maya loved Rick when she didnt know of his background or prestige. Team Maya. I hope Maya gets pregnant, has Rick’s baby and cause controversy and B & B truly deal with race in America since they tackle heart disease and soaying animals all the time.
I think what really made me laugh was Hope throwing Caroline off her face-book. Hope has been playing two brothers against each other for the longest time and before that she was always jealous of Liam’s friendship with Steffy. Hope is such a hypocrite and I hope Caroline tells her so. She kissed Ridge two or three times, Rick got drunk and jumped into bed with Maya, Even Ridge said Rick is a hot head and will gradually calm down. I suppose he’ll want Caroline to forgive him. I would love to see her with Ridge, and with all the trouble Katie caused with (Bill & Brook) I want to see her hurting.
I think Rick and Caroline belong together and I thought she already was pregnant from what she told ridge the first part of the week. I think it would serve maya right. Let her eat those spples. Money grubbing b….
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.
