Taylor tells Li a shocking secret with the power to change everything on Bold and the Beautiful

As a long-time viewer of The Bold and the Beautiful, I can say that the recent developments with Taylor’s character have me both worried and intrigued. It seems like the writers are taking us on another emotional rollercoaster ride, and as someone who’s been through my fair share of Forrester family dramas, I’m bracing myself for the tears that are surely coming.


If, just like me, you found Taylor’s explanation for returning home on September 20 in “The Bold and the Beautiful” questionable, then the episode served as a validation of our suspicions. Lately, the way the doctor has been speaking has given off some concerning vibes. Her repeated emphasis on not wanting to miss more moments with her loved ones, coupled with a seemingly casual remark about her heart, hinted at potential trouble.

The show began by showing Taylor engaged in a conversation on the phone with someone unknown, promising to provide details once she had more information and expressing gratitude for their concern despite appearing upset. As she ended the call, Brooke arrived, prompting them to delve into a chat about their daughters, particularly emphasizing the importance of Hope comprehending the consequences of her actions.

At last, they appeared willing for another attempt at a friendship. Given their previous encounter ended poorly, it was unexpected that Taylor expressed interest. However, when Li arrived following Taylor’s text invitation, events started becoming clearer. With Brooke absent, the in-laws had an open platform to converse freely.

Initially, Li believed that Taylor wished to meet with her because she was restarting her practice. However, it turned out that Taylor wanted a professional consultation instead. As suspected, Taylor had been in Monaco for a medical appointment. Unfortunately, Taylor has heart failure and is terminally ill. Quite surprising, isn’t it?

Her choice to tell Li is an interesting one since she’s Finn’s mother. It’s going to be tough for Li to sit on this secret and we still need to learn why Taylor told her in the first place. Does she want her take up her case without anyone knowing? Or has she accepted that her heart is failing and wants Li to provide palliative care under the radar? There’s much to consider with this storyline, the biggest question being whether Taylor’s really going to be written out.

Is Taylor leaving Bold and the Beautiful? (Speculation)

From one perspective, omitting Taylor from the soap script could be logical due to inconsistency in her appearance during Hunter Tylo’s later years as the character. This inconsistency led to awkward plot development whenever her absence needed explanation, especially during critical moments involving Steffy and Thomas, even those nearing fatal outcomes.

Initially, it was anticipated that with Krista Allen assuming the role of a doctor and amassing a loyal fanbase who admired her portrayal, there would be greater consistency for the character. However, after a few years, Allen started having inconsistent appearances on the show, eventually disclosing that she wasn’t renewed as a contract actor.

As a devoted fan, I find myself pondering: Rebecca Budig has stepped into the role now, but for how much longer? The current narrative surrounding Taylor’s heart might be the writers’ way of crafting an enduring and dramatic departure for her character, bringing closure to the years-long dilemma about her storyline. However, I sincerely hope this isn’t the end of the road for Taylor.

I know I’m biased as a Steffy fan but she already experienced the loss of Phoebe, her twin. Then, it turned out the daughter she adopted and named after her sister was really Hope’s baby and she was abruptly ripped from her home. Beth needed to be reunited with her biological mother but it was already a traumatic experience and it was made worse by how it was done.

Steffy’s sorrow from past events and life-altering losses led her to rely on painkillers, initially prescribed for managing the discomfort following a motorcycle accident. Time passed, and she came close to death in an alleyway, believing Finn to be deceased, only to later discover that he was alive.

Most recently, Luna nearly killed Steffy. She can’t catch a break! The soap is going to add on the loss of her mother as well? It’s too much. I’m all for a last minute miracle. Did we already do this last fall with Eric when he was thought to be dying only for Finn to work out an experimental procedure that cured him by the start of 2024? Absolutely, and I have no problem with the writers doing it again.

As a gamer, I’m in the know. It won’t take long before Finn catches up too. Bridget is making a return to our town, and it might just happen by next week! If we can gather all the doctors for Taylor, she definitely deserves it. Here’s hoping that happens. In any case, with Taylor being unwell, Ridge will likely step up to support her, which could stir trouble between him and Brooke, despite their efforts at friendship.

Prepare for an abundance of raw feelings as Ridge refers to Taylor as the binding force that keeps their family united. Brace yourself, because the Forresters might disintegrate when Taylor’s heart condition is revealed. With deep affection, they cherish her immensely, so it’s likely we’ll all be shedding tears as this emotional storyline unfolds.
