Sheila isn’t mincing words about what she wants on the Wednesday, July 8 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful. Similarly, Ridge has his own opinions to share with Electra about Will.
Key Takeaways
- The ultimatum Sheila gave Deacon.
- Ridge’s view of Will.
What Happened Previously on B&B?
Deacon (Sean Kanan) knows what he must do to get Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) to sign the divorce papers. He has to get Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) on board with her seeing Finn (Tanner Novlan) and Hayes (Bryan David Garlick). She hasn’t been able to see either of them. If Sheila’s going to lose Deacon, then she wants access to her son and grandson.
Taylor (Rebecca Budig) was skeptical about that arrangement. She knows her daughter’s stance on Sheila. It hasn’t budged in years, and Steffy’s still not convinced that Sheila has changed. But Sheila was adamant. She’s not divorcing Deacon without getting what she wants.
As for Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), the situation with Logan has put Forrester in a terrible position. They’re in crisis mode as they figure out what to do now that Hope has left the company. The launch of her collection, which happened without their knowledge, has them in a tailspin. He and Steffy have put every Forrester line on hold, including Electra’s (Laneya Grace) jewelry line.
Since the reveal of Logan’s jewelry collection and the Hope for the Future diamond, Electra has been spiraling. It’s led her to leave Will (Crew Morrow) for not telling her what his family was doing. The Spencers’ choices impacted the Forresters, and she blames Will for allowing her to be blindsided.
Despite firing him, Ridge has maintained that Will is a good kid. He hasn’t liked his decision-making. His violence toward R.J. (Brayan Nicoletti) has put them at odds. But Ridge does believe it’s his family’s influence that is leading Will astray. Specifically, Bill’s (Don Diamont). Were it not for Spencer, Ridge believes Will would be a different person.
