Here’s What Happened Previously
Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Brooke’s (Katherine Kelly Lang) trip to Italy wasn’t about romance — it was business. Still, being there together brought a rush of memories neither could completely push aside. The stunning backdrop, paired with their history, made every interaction feel loaded, even though Ridge was newly engaged to Taylor (Rebecca Budig).
For Brooke, the trip stirred up mixed emotions. She was there to work, yet being so close to Ridge in such a meaningful place only highlighted how far apart they were personally. Every glance carried the weight of what they once shared, and the knowledge that he’d committed to someone else made it all the more difficult.
Adding to the tension was Nick’s (Jack Wagner) presence. He had his own history with Brooke, and being in Italy with both men forced old dynamics to the surface. Nick’s easy charm and ability to connect with Brooke brought a lighter, more relaxed energy to their moments together—a sharp contrast to the complicated undercurrent between her and Ridge.
As the trip went on, Nick was set to propose to Brooke. However, she fell off the boat, and Ridge jumped in to rescue her. It was clear that Italy had left Brooke and Ridge with more than just completed business—it had reopened doors to feelings that they couldn’t fully shut.
