Ridge is rocked by Taylor's confession on Bold and the Beautiful (Sept. 30, 2024)

As a long-time fan who’s seen more B&B episodes than I care to count, let me tell you, it’s about time Taylor opened up about her struggles! I was worried we’d be stuck in another drawn-out, emotional rollercoaster, but this heart failure reveal has added some much-needed drama without being overly dramatic.


It turns out that Taylor, who collapsed in front of Ridge on The Bold and the Beautiful, didn’t keep her condition to herself. So it seems we might avoid another drawn-out “I don’t want to tell my family I’m dying” plotline!

Instead of listening to another conversation between Katie and Will discussing Katie possibly rekindling things with Bill, unnecessary flirting between Carter and Hope, and Steffy being overly aggressive about her parents’ relationship, we did manage to catch a few moments with Ridge and Taylor in the Forrester drawing room.

After managing to rouse her from sleep and settling her comfortably on the couch, with his jacket wrapped around her for warmth, Ridge asked his friend about the reason behind Taylor’s fainting spell. It was evident that Taylor was reluctant to share her concerns, but her repeated requests for secrecy and evasiveness made Ridge suspect that a significant issue was at play.

As a gamer, I didn’t want to head to the hospital, and when he inquired if my fainting spell could be a panic attack, I compared it to that, but my tone gave him a hint that I was concealing something. Eventually, I had to come clean. I’ve got heart failure, and I’m on my last legs.

The heart-wrenching disclosure by Rebecca Budig and Thorsten Kaye was masterfully executed. We can expect an extraordinary episode of the soap tomorrow, hopefully delving deeper into their storyline. Now that Taylor’s hidden truth has been unveiled to her lover, this narrative promises to pick up momentum.

Over the last couple of weeks, the authors have been emphasizing the unbreakable bond between Brooke and Ridge, stating that nothing can come between them at this point in their lives. However, Taylor’s illness and the possibility of her passing is bound to disrupt their relationship, even though neither she nor Ridge wish for it to happen.

Despite consistently favoring Brooke, Ridge’s connection with Taylor remains profound. He’s never been able to suppress his feelings for her, and now, with Taylor’s health deteriorating, he will feel compelled to stand by her side. His intention is to assure her that she isn’t alone; she can rely on him during this challenging time, and he will be there to provide support as she battles for her life.

It seems that Brooke and Taylor are trying to build a friendship, but whether this will last given the current storyline remains to be seen. This isn’t due to any lack of support from Brooke towards Ridge or Taylor, but because the situation is intricate and emotions, quite literally, hang in the balance. So, keep those tissues handy, everyone.
