Can B&B's Brooke Truly Find Happiness Without Ridge?
Brooke has been the ultimate queen of The Bold and the Beautiful for decades, but let's talk truth, can she really move on from Ridge for good? Sure, she's loved other men (and boy, has she had her fair share of unforgettable romances), but Ridge has always been the one constant in her turbulent love life. He is her 'destiny,' after all. Brooke's Heart: Open for Business or Forever Closed? Remember when she was swept up in passion with Ridge's (Thorsten Kaye) own father, Eric (John McCook)? Or the whirlwind flings with his brothers and even his mortal enemy Dollar Bill Spencer (Don Diamont0)? On paper, she's been able to love other men, but in her heart of hearts, Ridge is her kryptonite. Even when they're apart, the chemistry between Brooke and Ridge smolders like embers waiting to catch fire. READ MORE: See what's coming up on B&B. We've seen Brooke try to give herself over to other men, but has she ever seemed truly fulfilled without Ridge? It's hard to forget how even in her strongest 'independent woman' eras, she still ends up drawn back to her 'destiny.' So, what would it even look like for Brooke to completely cut ties and move forward with someone new? Another Man, Another Heartbreak? Fans are split: some want her to finally break free of Ridge's hold and find a love that's all about her. Others think Ridge and Brooke are endgame, no matter how many times they crash and burn. Could a fresh face in town be the one to sweep her off her feet and give her the happiness Ridge never could? Nick (Jack Wagner) is trying. Oh, boy, is he trying. He's doing all he can to get Brooke to swoon, but so far, nothing he's saying or doing is working. Is Brooke doomed to orbit Ridge forever, trapped in the same fiery cycle? READ MORE: Will Nick win Brooke over? If Brooke does let herself fall for someone else, we have to ask, can she keep Ridge from creeping back into her heart? Or is he the one man she'll never stop loving, no matter how hard she tries? Got a juicy soap forecast? Email amber@ and help start the next must-watch debate. Solve the daily Crossword

First Look: Bold and the Beautiful's Stunning Summer Shoot in Capri
First Look: Bold and the Beautiful's Stunning Summer Shoot in Capri originally appeared on Parade. The Bold and the Beautiful is once again going on location this summer. This time to the stunning shores of Capri, Italy. While the exact storyline details are being kept under wraps, fans can get excited as some of the shows most iconic stars are confirmed to be part of the trip. A first look from the scenic shoot has already surfaced, and it's as glamours as you'd expect. Spotted filming on location is John McCook (Eric Forrester), Thorsten Kaye (Ridge Forrester), Katherine Kelly Lang (Brooke Logan) and the recently returned Jack Wagner (Nick Marone). Brooke is set to be at a crossroads with her on-again/off-again relationship with Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) when his half-brother Nick, father to her son Jack Marone, makes an unexpected return. This brings a rush of emotions back to the surface and a sense of stability that she desperately needs. Nick provides her comfort and support, and he could be what Brooke needs to walk away from Ridge once and for all. During his time on The Bold and the Beautiful, Brooke wasn't the only woman Nick was involved with, nor the only one he married. Nick married Brooke's daughter Bridget a total of three times. He also married Brooke's long-standing rival Taylor Hayes (Hunter Tylo). Nick had relationships with both of Brooke's sisters Katie Logan (Heather Tom) and Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis). His additional flings included Felicia Forrester (Lesli Kay), Pam Douglas (Alley Mills), and Agnes Jones (Sarah Joy Brown). With many of the loves of Nick's life still in town, Brooke's stable life may not be as secure as she envisions. Jack Wagner portrayed Nick Marone from 2003 to 2012 and made a special appearance in the soap's 35th anniversary episode on March 24th, 2022. Wagner is also known for his time on fellow soap opera General Hospital, where he portrayed Frisco Jones, half of the iconic supercouple with partner Felicia Jones (Kristina Wagner). The scenes filmed in Capri will air later this summer. The Bold and the Beautiful airs at 1:30 p.m. ET on CBS and streams daily on Paramount+.
