Spoiler for “CBS [9/4/2025] The Bold and the Beautiful FULL Episode, Thursday, September 4: B&B Spoilers”
The latest episode of The Bold and the Beautiful explodes with tension, passion, and impossible choices as lives in Los Angeles’ most powerful families are thrown into chaos. Thursday’s episode centers on Ridge, Taylor, and Brooke, with the rest of the Forrester clan circling as emotions run high and loyalties are tested like never before.
The spotlight falls squarely on Ridge as he grapples with a choice that could alter the trajectory of his life forever. He’s standing at an emotional crossroads, with Taylor on one side, pressing him to commit, and Brooke still lingering in his heart, refusing to be erased. The air around him is heavy with expectation—everyone seems to have an opinion, but only Ridge can decide which path to take.
Taylor is determined not to waste time. Her love for Ridge feels steady and urgent, and she knows every moment counts if she wants to secure their future together. She’s already put her heart on the line with a bold proposal, and now she’s pushing harder, insisting on setting a wedding date immediately. For Taylor, the time for hesitation is long past. She’s tired of waiting for Ridge to choose, tired of Brooke’s constant interference, and desperate to prove that her love is not just passionate, but enduring. Every word she speaks is fueled by a mix of hope and fear: hope that Ridge will finally choose her, and fear that Brooke will once again lure him away.
But Taylor is not the only voice in Ridge’s ear. Eric, the patriarch, steps in with advice that carries enormous weight. In his calm but pointed way, Eric tells Ridge not to be swayed by Steffy, Thomas, or even Taylor’s urgency. Instead, he reminds Ridge of the undeniable truth: his deepest, longest-lasting love has always been Brooke. Those words strike like a thunderbolt. Ridge may have tried to bury those feelings, but hearing them voiced by his father makes them impossible to ignore. Suddenly, what seemed like a clear path forward with Taylor becomes muddled with memory, longing, and doubt.
Meanwhile, Brooke herself continues to cast a long shadow over the proceedings. Even absent from Ridge’s immediate embrace, she is ever-present in his thoughts. Brooke knows her history with Ridge is complicated, riddled with betrayals and reconciliations, but she also knows their connection has never been extinguished. As whispers circulate about Ridge’s possible marriage to Taylor, Brooke steels herself, unwilling to give up without a fight. She senses her chance to intervene, to remind Ridge of the passion they’ve shared, and she refuses to stay silent while Taylor presses her advantage.
Elsewhere in Los Angeles, another storm is brewing. Luna is consumed with the secret she’s hiding—a pregnancy that could tie her forever to Will. She has imagined this future countless times, believing the child could cement her place in his life. But what she sees as destiny, others may view as manipulation, and she knows the truth won’t stay hidden for long. Li, ever suspicious, grows increasingly wary of her niece’s behavior, sensing that a revelation is near. If the truth bursts out during such a fragile moment for the family, the fallout could be catastrophic.
At the same time, Liam struggles to reconcile his own emotions, still hovering around Hope while insisting his focus is on family. Ivy, having faced rejection, starts to accept that Liam’s heart belongs elsewhere, but that acceptance comes with its own sting. Their intertwined lives continue to complicate the landscape, ensuring that no one’s choices remain private for long.
Back at the center, Ridge’s turmoil deepens. Taylor’s demand for a wedding date grows louder. Eric’s counsel echoes in his ears. Brooke’s presence tugs at his heart. And all the while, Thomas watches closely, ready to step in if Brooke threatens to dismantle the dream of a Ridge-and-Taylor union.
Thursday’s episode promises a crescendo of emotions:
-
Taylor’s impatience clashes with Ridge’s hesitation.
-
Eric’s words spark dangerous doubts.
-
Brooke prepares to reassert herself at the worst—or best—moment.
-
Luna’s secret threatens to unravel more than just her own life.
The stage is set for heartbreak, betrayal, and revelations that could fracture the Forrester family beyond repair. Ridge must decide: will he honor Taylor’s devotion with a firm commitment, or will he admit that his heart, no matter how battered, still beats for Brooke?
By the end of the episode, viewers are left breathless, wondering whether a wedding date will be set—or whether the truth will derail everything before vows can even be spoken. One thing is certain: on September 4, nothing stays hidden, and no one escapes unscathed.
