The Bold and the Beautiful threw a curveball that has fans salivating. Even though many of them saw this storyline coming, they’re looking forward to the fallout. Eric Forrester volunteered to design Katie’s debut collection. Many fans predict this will cause a stir at Forrester Creations.
Key Takeaways
- Eric Forrester wasn’t ready to retire yet.
- Ridge forced him to leave his position as designer of Forrester Creations.
- Eric decided to design for Katie’s debut collection.
- B&B fans predict that “mayhem” will be the result of this storyline.
Eric Agrees to Be Katie’s Lead Designer
Katie (Heather Tom) asked Eric (John McCook) for advice on running a fashion house successfully. She wanted his expertise. Eric felt the energy between them. He decided to design Katie’s first collection to ensure that it would be an immediate hit.
Over on Reddit, B&B fans are amused by this storyline. Some of them are eagerly anticipating the conflict that’s ahead. Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) are already upset with Katie for stealing their lapsed Logan trademark. Wait until they find out that she has their former lead designer, too.
One Redditor argued, “His son dismissed him. Threw him out like an old shoe. And we need some mayhem on this show! How many times do we have to endure the same old love triangles and villains? I’m ready for some good old-fashioned fashion showdowns!”
Someone else echoed something similar, adding, “It’s going to be delicious mayhem, and I’m ready!” A third Redditor noted, “It will be mayhem — the good kind!!”
Meanwhile, another viewer explained, “It creates tension that the show needs. Plus, it would be interesting if Eric was able to poach talent from Forrester Creations or some other fashion house to fill the ranks at ‘Logan’ since Katie is starting off with nothing but a name and a promotional campaign.”
Arguably, Ridge retired Eric before he was ready to step down. Additionally, Ridge and Brooke’s reaction to Katie’s fashion house has angered many B&B viewers. Most of them would love to see the couple get what’s coming to them.
How Will the Truth Come Out?
Eric asked Katie to keep their collaboration a secret for now. Once the news comes out, it’ll become a PR mess. Why would the founder of Forrester Creations join a startup? Eric will have a lot of explaining to do, especially with Brooke and Ridge.
They’ll just see this as another betrayal. Of course, Katie doesn’t possess fashion design skills. So, she had to hire someone to design her first collection. Meanwhile, other fans would like to see Eric take Deke (Harrison Cone) under his wing.
Maybe Eric could hide behind Deke’s name until their debut fashion show. Then, Ridge would be in for the shock of his life. There’s also the possibility that RJ (Brayan Nicoletti) could jump ship and design with his grandfather again.
Either way, it’s going to be a mess. Are you looking forward to the mayhem that’s coming? Sound off below in the comments section.
