The Bold and the Beautiful’s Dr. Taylor Hayes is a woman who’s been through a rollercoaster of love, heartbreak, and emotional drama. The accomplished psychiatrist has put herself through it for way too long! It’s time for Taylor to smarten up – and, honey, that means staying out of Ridge’s bed for good.

Get Your Head on Straight, Taylor! 

Let’s rewind a bit, shall we? Taylor (Rebecca Budig) and Ridge’s (Thorsten Kaye) history is nothing short of soap opera gold. From their passionate, on-again, off-again romance to their multiple breakups, betrayals, and oh-so-close reunions, these two have been down a very rocky road.

Unfortunately, Ridge has played Taylor like a fiddle more times than she’d like to admit, and yet, here she is again—letting him into her life like the last decade of drama never happened. It’s time for Taylor to close that door once and for all.

Daughter Knows Best

Why, you ask? Well, let’s look at the facts. Ridge has consistently chosen Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) over Taylor. Sure, their love story is “epic” in soap terms, but Taylor deserves better than to be the other woman in a never-ending love triangle. She’s a brilliant, strong force with a career, family, and, let’s not forget, a seriously cool reputation. She’s not some consolation prize when Ridge and Brooke are on a break. 

It’s 2025, Taylor! Time to take a leaf out of Steffy Forrester’s book. Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) knows what it takes to move on from toxic relationships. She’s cut ties with her own ex, Liam (Scott Clifton), even after years of drama, because she knows her worth. It’s time for Taylor to do the same. 

She’s too smart, too beautiful, and too independent to keep running back to a man who’s already shown where his heart truly lies (spoiler alert: it’s not with her). Taylor should take a lesson from Steffy and focus on her own happiness, away from Ridge’s endless heart games.

Enough Is Enough!

And here’s the kicker – Taylor doesn’t need Ridge. In fact, no one does. She deserves a love that’s clear-cut and committed, not one that’s constantly in flux due to someone else’s indecision. It’s time for Taylor to find a man who sees her as the prize, not a backup. She’s got a lot to offer, and it’s about time someone appreciates her for the brilliant, beautiful woman she is.

So, Taylor – honey, no more. Close the chapter on Ridge. It’s time to take control of your love life, embrace your worth, and find true happiness. It’s time for you to move on, and trust us, it’s going to be fabulous!
