On The Bold and the Beautiful, Brooke and Ridge had reunited after their last trip to Italy. But when Carter and Hope staged a coup and took over Forrester Creations, Brooke joined them to surreptitiously get them to relinquish control. However, Ridge didn’t allow Brooke time to explain, so he dumped her and went back to Taylor. Ever since, Brooke has been trying to get Ridge to rekindle their romance, to no avail. Now, Nick has returned to Los Angeles and has been wooing Brooke to forget Ridge and come back to him. With all this back and forth, fans have been very vocal about the chaos created by these four.
Is Ridge Simply a Hobby for Brooke?
On B&B’s official Instagram page, a screenshot of Taylor (Rebecca Budig) and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) was posted with the caption, “These two 😳🫣.” Over Taylor’s pic was a line of dialogue in which she stated, “I sincerely hope Nick’s [Jack Wagner] return to LA works out for you,” while over Brooke was her snarky response, “I’m sure you do.” One fan commented, “Taylor is so desperate!”
Another viewer wrote, “I think Brooke is a doormat; she likes to [be] abused by Ridge [Thorsten Kaye] all the time. It looks like a nice hobby for her. She doesn’t need Ridge. Let Taylor have him.” Someone else interjected with the comment, “I’m glad Brooke is free from Ridge. She deserves to be happy with Nick.”
