The Bold and the Beautiful’s Ridge has once again left a trail of heartbreak in his wake. After breaking things off with Taylor, he immediately turned around and tied the knot with Brooke, leaving many fans furious at how quickly he shifted loyalties. Now, questions swirl about what’s next for Ridge’s fractured family — especially Thomas and Steffy — as his choices continue to ripple through Los Angeles. The show’s official social media post stirred the pot further, sparking a flood of fan outrage online.
Ridge’s Credibility With Fans is Gone
On Instagram, the official B&B page teased, “Ridge isn’t holding back. #BoldandBeautiful #drama #meme #daytimedrama.” That short statement was enough to ignite a heated debate. One fan fired off, “Ridge doesn’t care if Thomas is okay. Ridge doesn’t care about Thomas [Matthew Atkinson] or his family with Taylor [Rebecca Budig]. He has just been performing with them. He and Eric [John McCook] care about their relationships with The Logans.” Another wrote, “The way Ridge and Eric Logan treated Taylor was so messy.”
Others echoed the same frustrations, pointing out how much the children have suffered. “Just stop, Ridge, you don’t care if Thomas is okay or not. Eric told you that Thomas’ mental health meant nothing in your duty to Brooke [Katherine Kelly Lang],” a really frustrated viewer posted. Another declared, “So disappointed in Ridge. I don’t want to watch anymore! Too frustrating!!”
Fans Speak Out
The outrage didn’t stop there, as one fan vented, “Ridge is a total d**** belittling his son like that. He’s the one who has had the problem for the past 30 years with his sick back and forth. So tiring……urgh. 🤢🤮.” Someone else chimed in, “Ridge is such a tool. Breaks up with Taylor and goes straight to the office and marries Brooke. Such terrible writing. Same stuff over and over.”
Some fans admitted they were walking away from the character altogether, while another wrote bluntly, “I dislike that B&B put Ridge and Brooke back together. I just don’t want to watch this show anymore.” While a few defended Ridge’s latest move, most saw his actions as another example of putting The Logans above his own children. “Ridge just be by yourself for a while!!!” urged one, who added, “Have a rest from desperate women 😹😹😹😹😹.”
With so much backlash, it’s clear the audience isn’t ready to forgive Ridge anytime soon. (Is Ridge really the best man for Brooke?)
