The Bold and the Beautiful Fans Call Out Taylor for Hypocrisy in Forrester Romances

Fans Slam Taylor Over Brooke Rivalry

The Bold and the Beautiful has reignited one of its oldest and most controversial debates — Brooke Logan vs. Taylor Hayes. With Ridge back in Brooke’s arms, fans took to social media to revisit Taylor’s long history with the Forrester men.

A Facebook post by fan Phlile Majola stirred heated discussion: “She has slept with every man that has the last name Forrester but she bashes Brooke for sleeping with the Forrester men to Ridge. Again the pot is calling the kettle black.”

The “she” in question? Taylor Hayes. The comment sparked a wave of agreement, with many viewers branding Taylor a “hypocrite.” Others, however, jumped to her defense, arguing that at least Taylor never went as far as Brooke — who infamously had a child with her daughter’s husband.

A Rivalry That Defines the Show

For more than 30 years, Brooke and Taylor’s rivalry has been the beating heart of The Bold and the Beautiful. Their war has never been about power or money — it has always been Ridge Forrester.

Ridge’s indecision cemented the cycle: every time Taylor thought she had Ridge’s devotion, Brooke’s pull dragged him away. Taylor has endured marriages and engagements crumbling overnight because Ridge could not sever his ties to Brooke.

This relentless back-and-forth has left Taylor with the scars of being “the one left behind.” For Brooke, it has reinforced her claim to Ridge as her “destiny.”

Collateral Damage: The Children

The feud has never stayed contained between the women. Their children — Steffy, Thomas, Hope, and R.J. — have lived in the shadow of their mothers’ rivalry, often taking sides in bitter battles. Even when Brooke and Taylor call a truce, Ridge’s wavering heart inevitably reignites the war.

A Story Without End

The hypocrisy debate only adds fuel to the fire of this soap opera’s longest-running love triangle. Whether fans defend Taylor or condemn her, one truth remains: Ridge’s inability to choose has kept this rivalry alive for decades.

And as long as Ridge keeps bouncing between Brooke and Taylor, the cycle of heartbreak and accusations of hypocrisy is destined to continue.
