What Happened Previously on B&B
Bill (Don Diamont) and Katie (Heather Tom) got married after Bill surprised Katie with a proposal. This came right on the heels of Hope (Annika Noelle) and Liam’s (Scott Clifton) wedding. The two didn’t wait any time before making it official.
As a wedding gift, Bill gave Katie a fashion house. Of course, she still works at Forrester. However, recently, they cut her out of decisions over the Luna (Lisa Yamada) fallout. That obviously didn’t sit well with her.
Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) have also been enjoying their newlywed status. She has supported her husband even when he forced Eric (John McCook) to retire. She did wonder if Ridge was really sure about the decision, but she didn’t speak out against him.
