What Happened Previously on B&B
Eric (John McCook) made it clear he wanted a bigger role at Forrester Creations, insisting he was finished being treated like a figurehead. What he really longed for was a return to the work that defined him — creating haute couture.
He didn’t hold back on his thoughts about Ridge’s (Thorsten Kaye) newest designs, and his criticism landed hard. Ridge and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) bristled, remembering how close their last fashion showdown came during the time everyone feared Eric was dying.
Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) has taken on more duties at Forrester while Eric has stepped back. She carries his lessons with her and misses having him fully involved, even knowing he’s earned a slower pace in his life.
Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) and Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) watched uneasily as Ridge informed Eric it was time to retire. Even Brooke appeared taken aback by the firmness of her husband’s words.
Liam (Scott Clifton) and Hope (Annika Noelle) are getting married very soon. Deacon (Sean Kanan) will be there as the father of the bride. Unfortunately for him, his wife, Sheila (Kimberlin Brown), isn’t welcome at the wedding.
