B&B Recap | Taylor Marks Her Territory, Carter Crushes Daphne & Brooke’s Dream Cracks - Thursday, May 22, 2025 [SPOILERS]

On Thursday’s The Bold and the Beautiful, it’s all about delusions, declarations, and dagger stares. Brooke’s runway fantasy hits reality, Carter stuns Daphne with a gut-punch of a love confession, and Taylor makes sure everyone knows she’s still the reigning queen of Ridge’s heart.

Brooke & Taylor | B&B, CBS

Taylor and Brooke Clash in a Battle of B&B Queens


Brooke was basking in her post-runway glow, living for the press, and soaking in the magic moment she shared with Ridge when Taylor sashayed into the Forrester design office. But Taylor didn’t show up to give compliments—she came with a side-eye and a message. Brooke brought up her magical moment with Ridge like it was a fairy tale reboot, but Taylor was quick to shut it down. According to her, whatever spark lit up that runway was a flicker, not a flame. She’s secure, she’s grown, and she’s not about to crumble over some fashion show flashback. Taylor declared Ridge is with her because he wants to be—and that’s the beginning, middle, and end of it.

Katie Pushes, Ridge Sulks, and the Brooke Obsession Persists


Meanwhile, Katie was busy poking Ridge like a bear with a Logan-shaped stick. She shoved the latest Eye on Fashion in his face (guess who’s on the cover? Surprise—it’s Brooke in that gown), and pushed the age-old Brooke and Ridge forever narrative. Ridge, ever the tortured soul, admitted the dress had him spiraling and reminiscing, but insisted this time is different. He’s with Taylor now, trying not to break more hearts—his own included. But Katie? She’s not buying it. She basically told him to stop playing house with Taylor and face the music—he still wants Brooke.

Daphne Shoots Her Shot and Gets Slammed With the Truth


Over in Forrester’s dressing area, Daphne was mooning over Carter, and Zende—ever the observer—called her out faster than a slap at a fashion show. Daphne admitted her crush, defending Carter like her paycheck depended on it and dragging Hope in the process. She’s convinced Carter is her future, while Hope’s just his complicated past. But baby girl should have checked the script.

At Carter’s place, Hope poured her heart out and asked for a clean slate, and Carter was all in. He promised no more mistakes, and they sealed it with a kiss. Enter Daphne, thinking she still had a chance. She laid her heart bare, told Carter she’d fallen for him, and waited for the swoon. Instead, she got the swerve. Carter hit her with the brutal truth—he’s in love, but not with her. Hope’s got his heart, and Daphne’s got... well, a broken one. Ouch.

Brooke’s Hope is Wobbling, But She’s Not Backing Down


Back at Forrester, Brooke was spiraling post-Taylor showdown. Hope walked in just in time to see her mom looking like someone stole her spotlight. Brooke confessed she felt a real connection with Ridge during that runway moment and hoped it was the start of something real. But Taylor’s confidence shook her, and now she’s second-guessing it all. Still, Brooke’s riding the heart train and holding onto the belief that Ridge is her destiny.

Taylor Claims Her Man—But Ridge Looks Ready to Bolt


Katie wasn’t done stirring drama. She had one last go at Ridge before Taylor walked in and confirmed what Katie had already guessed—she was Team Brooke, as usual. But Taylor handled it with grace and shade. She told Ridge all about her chat with Brooke, gave her props, then doubled down on their relationship. She’s confident, committed, and ready to write the next chapter with him. The only problem? Ridge looks like a man stuck between two chapters he can’t close—and that kiss with Taylor didn’t exactly erase the runway flashbacks.
