The Bold and the Beautiful wasn’t playing around this week! July 21–25 brought high drama as Brooke went all in for Ridge, Sheila soaked up her so-called happily ever after, and Steffy said “enough” and stepped away from the madness.
Brooke (and Eric) Came In HOT!
Brooke’s (Katherine Kelly Lang) was spent fighting off one man while fighting for the other. From Nick (Jack Wagner) making an impassioned plea to her on Monday to that shocking ultimatum she issued to Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) in the middle of the week, to begging for another chance on Friday, she was all in on reuniting with her main man.
Brooke is a woman in love and she’s not alone in her plight. Eric (John McCook) was also right there all week advocating for his son to chase his destiny instead of chasing a dream with Taylor (Rebecca Budig). While his meddling didn’t exactly win Ridge over, it did help Brooke state her case and getting into Ridge’s head!
Shall We Start Calling Her the She-Angel Now?
Also having a great week was Sheila (Kimberlin Brown). She got a surprise visit from Finn (Tanner Novlan) and for the first time in a very, very long time, he didn’t push her away. In fact, he thanked her profusely for protecting his wife…even it it meant losing his (diabolical and completely deranged) daughter.
Things in Sheila’s world became even brighter when she turned up at the Spencer mansion and was welcomed in by none other than Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood)! Talk about a turn of events! Steffy even thanked her and asked how she was. Was this a turning point? Absolutely. Now, we just have to see if Sheila can keep on this upward trajectory.
An Emotional Goodbye
Speaking of Steffy, we have to say, our hearts are a bit broken knowing she’s leaving town for a few weeks. Her last moments this week by Liam’s bedside were spent making plans to take the kids and get away for a while so she can process all this drama and trauma Luna (Lisa Yamada) put everyone through.
Is this break needed so the actress can go on her real-life maternity leave? Yes. Of course. Does that mean we’ll miss Steffy any less? No. It will be interesting to see what goes on in Los Angeles while Finn (Tanner Novlan) alone, though. He’s been a dutiful husband since the day they took their vows but we all know in Los Angeles, everything can change in an instant!
