Bold and the Beautiful Fans Call for RJ’s Comeback — “Where the Hell Is He?”
It’s been a full year since RJ Forrester last appeared on The Bold and the Beautiful, and fans are officially losing patience. As the son of supercouple Brooke Logan and Ridge Forrester, RJ is a core legacy character whose absence has left a noticeable gap in the Forrester family dynamic — and viewers are making it clear they want him back.
RJ’s Legacy and Rise at Forrester Creations
Born in 2004, Ridge Jr., or RJ, grew up in the shadow of fashion royalty. After spending much of his youth at boarding school, he made several short-term returns to Los Angeles over the years, each time bringing new energy and potential to the show.
When Joshua Hoffman stepped into the role in 2023, RJ’s storyline finally gained traction. Fans saw him trade in his influencer lifestyle for a future in fashion design, joining Forrester Creations to help his grandfather Eric Forrester (John McCook) with what became his final collection.
Eric’s pride in RJ was unmistakable, even crowning him “The Anointed One” — a symbolic passing of the torch from one Forrester generation to the next.
But as B&B storylines shifted toward Luna’s reign of chaos, RJ’s screen time dwindled. His final appearance came in October 2024, leaving viewers wondering why such a vital character disappeared so suddenly.
Fans Demand RJ’s Return
The calls for RJ’s comeback reignited recently when The Bold and the Beautiful’s official Instagram page posted birthday wishes for actor Joshua Hoffman. Fans flooded the comments section, demanding to know where RJ had gone.
“Bring him back! He’s awesome!” one fan exclaimed.
“Is he ever coming back to the show? We need some RJ content,” another wrote.
“Where the hell is RJ? He was Luna’s first victim, and no one cares. He should’ve been front and center during all the chaos,” a third added.
Many feel that RJ’s storyline was unfairly cut short, especially considering his emotional connection to Luna’s downfall and the family drama surrounding Forrester Creations.
Potential Storylines for RJ’s Return
If RJ does make his long-awaited return to Los Angeles, there’s no shortage of drama waiting for him.
1. Confronting Luna:
RJ was one of Luna’s earliest victims before her violent spiral. Seeing him face her again — now that she’s alive and pregnant — would give fans long-awaited closure.
2. A Love Triangle with Electra and Will:
Electra (Laneya Grace) is currently dating RJ’s cousin Will Spencer (Crew Morrow), but with tension rising in their relationship, she could easily find comfort in RJ. That twist would set up a fiery cousin rivalry — and reignite the legendary Logan family feud between Brooke and Katie.
3. A Design Duel with Deke:
Back at Forrester, RJ could return to reclaim his creative edge — but this time, he’d face off against Deke (Harrison Cone), the up-and-coming designer who’s quickly making waves. The stakes would be personal, too, since both men have ties to Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and her fashion line.
Why RJ’s Return Matters
RJ represents the next generation of the Forresters — a bridge between the show’s rich history and its modern direction. His charm, creative passion, and deep family ties make him an essential part of The Bold and the Beautiful’s future.
Fans aren’t just calling for nostalgia; they’re calling for balance — a return to the family dynamics that made the show iconic.
