The Bold and the Beautiful Is In A Romantic Lull, Needs A Quick Reboot

There’s a serious romantic lull on The Bold and the Beautiful, regarding some of the show’s most popular characters. Brooke, Ridge, and Taylor have been in limbo, ever since Brooke and Taylor decided to put their friendship above their love for their mutual ex. Deacon turned his attention to perfecting pizza after Sheila was hauled off to prison, and Bill’s been spinning his wheels chasing after a disinterested Katie.

Bold and the Beautiful: The Final Mrs. Forrester

It’s time to shake things up in the Forrester fashion world – reunite one key duo, start some new relationships, and get the romance wheel spinning again. As for the decades-long Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang), Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), and Taylor (Krista Allen) triangle, a decision has to be made.

One former Mrs. Forrester is going to have to step aside and give the other Mrs. Forrester her blessing to move forward with Ridge. Taylor will likely be the benevolent one, knowing, deep down, that Ridge and her bestie truly are each other’s destiny. It’s time to acknowledge the truth, so she can move on, and so they can too.

A B&B Romance For Everyone

Where can Taylor turn? Well, Deacon (Sean Kanan) and Bill (Don Diamont) are both available. In his quest to be a better man, it’s really best that Deacon totally cut ties with Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) and move in a new direction. Bill should do the same, realizing Katie (Heather Tom) wants and deserves a future with Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor). A Taylor and Deacon or Taylor and Bill pairing would likely get under Ridge’s skin, upping the drama. Plus, Taylor could turn to Brooke for advice on both men since she’s already had them. It would give the two pals more to bond over.

There is another intriguing option for Bill: Finn’s (Tanner Novlan) mother, Li (Naomi Matsuda). Remember, he was the one who rescued her after her car plummeted into the river, and she miraculously turned up alive. The duo has history, and Li sees Bill as a hero, something the egotistical media mogul needs in his women. However, Li would also be a formidable match for Bill. She’s a doctor who’s just as smart and savvy as he is. And, as a bonus, they’d make a striking couple.
