“WHO IS THOMAS’ FATHER?” Eric decides to reveal the biggest secret about Taylor | Bold and Beautiful
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers reveal that the Forrester mansion may be the stage for one of the most explosive family scandals in years.
For weeks, Eric Forrester has been quietly watching his son with a knowing eye. Ridge Forrester, after years of indecision and heartache, finally seemed to accept a truth Eric had always believed — Brooke Logan is the love of his life.
The way Ridge looked at her after their trip to Italy, the softness in his tone when he spoke her name… to Eric, it was proof his son was ready to embrace happiness.
But there was still Taylor Hayes. Determined, steadfast, and unwilling to let Ridge go, Taylor’s confidence in their engagement made it clear that this triangle was far from over.
Eric respected Taylor, but he also knew the tug-of-war couldn’t last forever. And buried deep in his past was a truth that could end it in an instant.
Late one evening, alone in his study, Eric stared at an old folder he’d kept hidden away for years. Inside was the secret that could shatter Ridge’s world — DNA results proving that Thomas Forrester was not Ridge’s biological son.
The discovery had been an accident, born from a private medical matter, but the results had been undeniable. The timeline painted a clear picture: during the time Taylor claimed Thomas was Ridge’s child, she had been with another man.
Eric had kept this secret for years to protect Ridge from heartbreak. But now, watching Taylor hold onto Ridge with everything she had — while knowing the truth she’d hidden — Eric felt he could no longer stay silent.
When he finally sat Ridge down, the tension in the room was palpable. “There’s something I’ve kept from you for far too long,” Eric began, his voice heavy with regret.
As the truth spilled out — the paternity test, the betrayal, the years of lies — Ridge’s face shifted from confusion to disbelief to something darker.
“You’re telling me… Thomas isn’t my son?” Ridge’s voice cracked, heavy with anguish.
Eric’s solemn nod confirmed it. The revelation slammed into Ridge like a tidal wave — the milestones, the memories, the unconditional love he had given Thomas, all now tangled in deception.
The anger was immediate, directed at Taylor for the betrayal, and at the years of fatherhood that suddenly felt rewritten.
The love triangle with Brooke suddenly felt irrelevant. This was deeper. More personal. And somewhere beneath the fury, a haunting question began to take shape: if he isn’t Thomas’s father… then who is?
Spoilers hint that Ridge will confront Taylor in an emotional, high-stakes showdown that could end their engagement for good. But will the fallout push Ridge back into Brooke’s arms… or leave him too shattered to love anyone at all?
