On The Bold and the Beautiful, Liam has recently been pushed to his limits — even convinced he was dying, which led him to pull the trigger on Luna in a shocking twist after she shot him first. Off-screen, though, Scott Clifton is living in a very different reality. Away from the drama of daytime, he’s focusing on the people who matter most. That includes his girlfriend, Elle, to whom he dedicated a moving birthday tribute that had fans swooning.
A Birthday Message from the Heart
Clifton shared a post on Instagram, accompanied by a photo of Elle smiling in front of a candle, ready to make her birthday wish. In the lengthy caption, he admitted it had been a difficult week, but used it as an opportunity to praise Elle’s giving nature, her resilience in the face of challenges, and the way she handles life’s hardships with grace.
He marveled at her tenacity, noting that after each stumbling block in life, “You dust yourself off and take one more step forward.” Ultimately, he ended his sweet message with, “You never stop getting better and better, and I’ll love you eternally for it. Happy Birthday, Elle Anderson.”
Elle herself was clearly touched, replying, “Only you could turn my birthday into poetry 🥰 Thank you for holding my heart so tenderly, for seeing me so clearly, and for loving me in ways that make every day feel like a celebration. I love and adore you 🥹❤️❤️❤️.”
His Words Struck a Chord
Fans quickly joined in, with one follower writing, “The Lord won’t give you more than you can handle, and you got through what you say was terrible! But you did it!” Another said, “Well @cliftoncam you are sweeter than Liam will ever be. Happy birthday to Elle, sorry for the sadness/challenges and happy you have each other. ❤️❤️” Co-star Rebecca Budig (Taylor) eagerly commented, “Beautifully written. Beautiful woman.”
More love poured in as another fan shared, “Happy Birthday 🥳 🎈 Ellie – You and Clifton have an Amazing love 💝” while someone else added, “Happy Birthday Elle!! You deserve the best day ever ❤️” And one viewer commented, “Touching and precious words for what seems to be an amazing human💖it’s absolutely beautiful to read this type of love story❣️ thku @cliftoncam and happy happy birthday Elle🎉 i think your birthday 🎁 is every day…🫶🏻”
