On Tuesday’s episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Ridge and Taylor finally confront some tough truths about where they stand as a couple. Despite trying to move forward, Ridge can't seem to shake Brooke’s influence on his life. Taylor senses this, and it’s clear she’s grown tired of Brooke being part of their story. Even after several attempts to ask Brooke to step back, nothing has changed. Taylor is once again forced to question whether her relationship is built on solid ground—or if Ridge is still holding on to something unresolved.

Brooke recently confided in Hope that Ridge is, and always has been, her destiny. Her confidence in their connection hasn’t faded. Even after Ridge chose Taylor over her, Brooke continues to believe that they’re meant to be. Eric once tried to nudge Ridge back toward Brooke during the fashion show, but Ridge didn’t waver—he remained committed to Taylor. However, Brooke’s belief in “always and forever” lingers, and that’s a shadow Taylor can’t ignore.

The reappearance of Nick might just shift Brooke’s attention elsewhere. While she’s still emotionally invested in Ridge, Nick’s return to Los Angeles could offer a new beginning. Whether Ridge likes it or not, Nick’s presence is bound to stir things up. With unresolved emotions and old flames reigniting, Brooke may soon find herself reconsidering her future. And Ridge—despite claiming loyalty to Taylor—may not be as unaffected as he wants everyone to believe.
