The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers recap for Friday, January 17, reveals that Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) agreed it felt strange for Steffy to be back at the office.
Steffy wanted to run something by Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang), but Hope admitted her mother was out of the building right now.
That led to some tension over the price Brooke had paid for her latest betrayal since she’d lost Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye).
Steffy suggested it was a lesson in karma and was pleased that Brooke was out of Ridge’s life for good.
Despite Ridge’s previous addiction to Brooke, Steffy was glad to see him back with Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig).
At the cliff house, Brooke showed up and confronted Taylor about taking advantage of the situation with Ridge.
After Brooke accused Taylor of being a backstabber, Taylor pointed out that she didn’t scheme to make this happen.
That said, Taylor was glad about her Ridge reunion and felt like it was something Brooke would just have to accept.
After Taylor made positive predictions about her future with Ridge, she dashed off to meet up with him.
At the Forrester mansion, Ridge spoke to Eric Forrester (John McCook) and Zende Forrester Dominguez (Delon de Metz) about Steffy’s plan before talk turned to the struggles in his love life.
Ridge wasn’t sure he ever really knew Brooke, so he was clearly gravitating toward Taylor since he felt he could trust her.
Later, Ridge had a phone conversation with Justin Barber (Aaron D. Spears) and seemed hopeful about his updates on fighting the takeover.
Once Taylor arrived, she gave Ridge the news about Brooke’s tense visit.
Ridge changed the subject to their plan to live together and suggested Taylor should move in the Forrester mansion until they could nail down their beach house plans.
After Taylor agreed, she expressed her happiness to be back together with Ridge and said it was worth the wait.
Taylor stepped away on Friday’s B&B episode, which gave Ridge a chance to take a call from Brooke in private.
Once Brooke vented to Hope, she got Ridge on the phone and tried to convince him that things weren’t truly over between them.
Ridge was cold toward Brooke and ultimately hung up on her, so she looked devastated.
At the hospital, Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda) wanted Poppy Nozawa (Romy Park) to confirm what she’d suspected all these years.
While Li was off working on her medical career, she thought Poppy had been busy sleeping with Jack Finnegan (Ted King).
Li insisted Poppy had betrayed her with her own husband and demanded a confession.
After Li pushed her sister to admit Jack was Luna Nozawa’s (Lisa Yamada) father, Poppy stood there looking overwhelmed.
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Poppy will remain in a tight spot, so stay tuned! CDL will have other sizzling Bold and the Beautiful spoilers, predictions, updates and news, so make us your favorite B&B hotspot.
