‘The Annointed One’
RJ has been a key character on B&B since his birth in 2004. Like many of the Forrester children, RJ spent most of his time away in boarding school. However, he’s made several returns throughout the years.
His most recent return came in 2023 with Hoffman taking over the role. Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) were thrilled to have their son home and working at Forrester Creations. RJ then switched from being a social media influencer to a fashion designer. He helped his grandpa Eric (John McCook) with his collection and Eric dubbed his young grandson, “The Annointed One.”
RJ was front and center in many storylines, including being a pawn in Luna’s (Lisa Yamada) reign of terror. However, slowly his appearances became less frequent, and the character was last seen in October 2024.
It’s been a year since viewers saw RJ, and many think he should come back. On B&B’s official Instagram page, the show posted birthday wishes for Hoffman, which sparked comments about RJ’s return.
“Bring him back! He’s awesome!!” declared one fan. “Is he ever coming back to the show? We need some RJ content,” one viewer wrote. “Where the hell is RJ? He was Luna’s first victim, and no one cares. All the coup stuff, he should have been front and center,” wrote another commenter.
Return Storylines For RJ
When and if RJ decides to return, there’s plenty of storyline for him. The number one is confronting Luna (Lisa Yamada). RJ was one of Luna’s victims during her reign of terror, and it’d be great to see him get some closure.
While RJ was heartbroken over Luna’s actions, Electra (Laneya Grace) could help him heal. The jewelry designer is currently dating his cousin Will (Crew Morrow), but their relationship has been tested because of Luna. With Electra drifting away from Will to RJ, it would set up a feud not only with the cousins, but their mothers Brooke and Katie (Heather Tom).
But Will isn’t the only one RJ could feud with. If RJ wants to get back into designing, he’d face tough competition from FC’s newest designer Deke (Harrison Cone). It’ll be the battle of Hope’s (Annika Noelle) brothers as they fight to be the one to design for her line.
