The Bold and the Beautiful Comings and Goings: Ridge Forrester Crosses Over to Beyond the Gates
A major shake-up is hitting CBS Daytime! The Bold and the Beautiful has confirmed that Thorsten Kaye will take his iconic character, Ridge Forrester, beyond the borders of Los Angeles — straight into Beyond the Gates. The crossover marks a bold new chapter for the Forrester patriarch, blending high fashion, fierce ambition, and emotional depth across two CBS soaps.
Ridge Forrester Enters New Territory
It’s official: The Bold and the Beautiful’s leading man is heading into new territory. According to The Bold and the Beautiful Comings and Goings, Ridge Forrester will make his first appearance in Beyond the Gates later this season — and fans can expect his signature mix of charm, confidence, and corporate chaos.
Ridge’s storyline kicks off when he travels to scout new talent and expand Forrester Creations’ global reach. There, he crosses paths with Dani, a model-turned-agent played by Karla Mosley. Their encounter quickly becomes more than business when Dani introduces Ridge to a fresh lineup of creative talent — and possibly rekindles a spark that fans never expected to see again.
A Reunion Years in the Making
The crossover also marks a reunion between Thorsten Kaye and Karla Mosley, who famously portrayed Maya Avant on The Bold and the Beautiful. Their professional chemistry was undeniable during Mosley’s run, and fans are thrilled to see her return to the CBS daytime family.
With Dani’s career now in full swing and Ridge looking to reinvent Forrester Creations’ legacy, the two are set to clash and collaborate in ways that could transform both of their futures. Will business turn personal, or will the ghosts of their past connections complicate things once more?
CBS Expands Its Shared Soap Universe
Ridge’s crossover continues CBS’s growing trend of interconnected storylines across its daytime dramas. Earlier this year, The Young and the Restless’s Bryton James (Devon Hamilton) made a guest appearance in Beyond the Gates, sparking unexpected chemistry with Dani. Now, Ridge’s entrance could shake up that dynamic — and add a new layer of intrigue to the network’s evolving shared universe.
These crossovers are designed to bring new energy to the soaps while honoring their history, giving fans a sense of nostalgia alongside fresh storytelling. CBS is clearly betting big on collaboration — and Ridge’s arrival could be the most ambitious move yet.
What This Means for Ridge and Brooke
Of course, Bold and the Beautiful fans are asking one big question: what does this mean for Ridge’s marriage to Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang)? With Ridge traveling to Europe for an extended stay, tensions could rise back home. Will Brooke trust her husband’s business motives, or will old insecurities resurface?
Meanwhile, Ridge’s absence could create an opening at Forrester Creations — and in true soap fashion, you can bet someone will be ready to seize it.
A Game-Changing Crossover
Thorsten Kaye’s move proves once again why The Bold and the Beautiful remains the most unpredictable show in daytime. Ridge Forrester’s crossover into Beyond the Gates blends legacy, passion, and ambition into one dramatic storyline that’s bound to keep fans hooked.
Whether this marks the start of a long-term crossover arc or a setup for future CBS soap collaborations, one thing is certain — Ridge Forrester is about to redefine the fashion world all over again.
