The Bold and the Beautiful key moments for Friday, July 25, 2025, might have given us an unconscious coupling. No, we’re not talking about a conscious uncoupling. An unconscious coupling is an unexpected pairing. Let’s take a look at what happened in today’s episode, which you need to check out for yourself.
Stupid Cupid
Things took an angry tone as Eric (John McCook) reminded Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) that life was too short. He should know; he almost died. Now, he wants his son to rethink his future. Ridge is set on marrying Taylor (Rebecca Budig), but Eric isn’t sold. He believes his son belongs with Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang).
Speaking of the lady, she walked into the office when Ridge was alone. She took this opportunity to berate him for leaving her amid for Taylor the Forrester Creations takeover. Ridge just stood there and stared at her. It’s hard to tell what’s going on in his mind. Does he feel guilty? Will he have second thoughts in Rome?
Scheming Together
Meanwhile, Nick (Jack Wagner) informed Taylor about Forrester Creations’s trip to Rome, which she already knew about. She will probably find a way to get Ridge’s location, even though he’ll be thousands of miles away. But she refuses to tag along since she trusts Ridge—or so she says. Taylor advises Nick to keep an eye on Brooke. He told Taylor that he would think about it. What will Nick do? Will he use this trip to his advantage?
Brainstorming Session
Back at the hospital, Finn (Tanner Novlan) still has questions about Liam’s (Scott Clifton) recovery. He told Bridget (Ashley Jones) that he couldn’t reach Grace (Cassandra Creech). Could she end up in hiding on B&B? Finn remains skeptical about this procedure, which he should. There are a lot of unanswered questions. However, Bridget feels that it was worth the risk. What will Finn find? Will he find out the truth behind Liam’s health?
Unexpected Houseguest
Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) visited Liam at Bill’s (Don Diamont). But she wasn’t the surprise visitor. That goes to Sheila (Kimberlin Brown), who interrupted their conversation. She excused herself until Steffy urged her to stay. She thanked Sheila for saving her life. Sheila wanted to know if this meant she forgave her. Steffy only wanted to express gratitude.
After Sheila left, Liam wanted to know what was on Steffy’s mind. He asked if she would end up forgiving Sheila. Steffy didn’t want to use “forgiveness” and “Sheila” in the same sentence. She has a lot on her mind these days. Steffy informed Liam that she’s leaving town since she’s been through a lot, but she didn’t want to leave him. Liam assured her that he would be fine. But what (or who) will bring Steffy back to town?
Who Should Recouple?
It’s Nick and Taylor. Wagner and Budig have incredible chemistry, and they look good together. We would love for them to revisit their relationship. They share history. Nick and Taylor used to be married with a child. If the B&B spoilers are true, Brooke and Ridge are likely to reconnect in Rome. It is THEIR romantic spot anyway.
Nick and Taylor could find love with one another once again. Or they could hook up out of spite. Their relationship could work since they both love traveling the world. They can take their respective businesses anywhere they want. We’d love to see this couple reconnect. How about you?
