‘The Bold and the Beautiful’: How Krista Allen Is Preparing for Taylor Hayes Role?

The Bold and the Beautiful‘s favorite doctor Taylor Hayes (Krista Allen), is coming back.

The beloved heroine has been missing in action in recent years, but now she’s returning to reunite with her family. However, there’s one slight change to the character.

Hunter Tylo, who played the character for 29 years, won’t be returning to the role, much to fans’ disappointment. Allen being cast as Taylor received mixed reactions. The actor knows she has a challenge but prepares properly as she gears up for her debut.

Allen is no stranger to daytime; she played Billie Reed on Days of Our Lives from 1996 to 1999. Now’s she returning to her soap opera roots with her new job on The Bold and the Beautiful. Taking over a significant role like Taylor is a challenge, but Allen’s been doing her homework.

In an interview with Soap Opera Digest, the actor watched old Taylor episodes to prepare for her debut. “So right now, I’m studying up and trying to understand what these different relationships have been through the years so I can make this Taylor as authentic as possible,” she explained.

Any actor would be nervous about joining a new show, but Allen enjoys The Bold and the Beautiful family. The actor is already bonding with her new castmates, including her onscreen family. Allen will be sharing a lot of scenes with Thorsten Kaye, who plays Taylor’s ex-husband Ridge Forrester. Allen called him a “handsome and funny guy when talking about Kaye.”

As for the rest of her onscreen family, Allen had kind words for Jacqueline MacInnes Wood. “Jacqui is a ray of sunshine, and I couldn’t be luckier to have her as my TV daughter,” the actor gushed. Wood’s character, Steffy Forrester, will be happy to have her mother back. Steffy may also stir up trouble when she tries to reunite her parents.

Taylor Hayes and Ridge Forrester reunion imminent

The Bold and the Beautiful fans will get to see Allen’s debut on Dec. 10. Taylor’s return comes amid Ridge and Brooke Logan’s (Katherine Kelly Lang) latest marital issues. The Taylor, Ridge, and Brooke triangle was one of the show’s biggest storylines in the 90s,’ and another round is coming.

Ridge will be seeking Taylor’s help as tension grows in his and Brooke’s relationship. As Taylor and Ridge spend more time together, old sparks will reignite. After his recent talk with Steffy and Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson), Ridge may be thinking it was a mistake leaving Taylor for Brooke.

Although a Tridge reunion is on the horizon, fans know Brooke isn’t going down without a fight. She’s not going to let anyone, including Taylor, steal Ridge from her. In the past, Brooke may have been able to push Taylor around. But now she’s in for a challenge with the new Taylor.

Steffy Is Overjoyed by Taylor’s Surprise Return and Sheila Mocks Deacon for Living in a Storage Closet

The Bold and the Beautiful, Sheila visits Deacon at Il Giardino, Steffy and Taylor catch up, and Ridge walks out on Brooke again.

At home, Steffy flashes to reminding Ridge he has his family supporting him.

She hears the door and assumes it’s Finn… but it’s her mom! Steffy is stunned to see Taylor, who says, “Hi sweetheart. I’m back.” They embrace. Steffy asks if Thomas knows she’s back, but Taylor explains she wanted to surprise them both. Steffy is sure she’s dying to see the kids, who are napping. Taylor will peek in on them. They hug again.
At Brooke’s place, Ridge rubs the tension out of her shoulders and muses that there are other ways to reduce tension — she could send Deacon packing. Brooke replies that it’s not that simple. Ridge’s phone dings and Brooke sees a message from Thomas about over-stepping. Ridge fills her in on his conversation with his children yesterday, in which they reminded him he does have another family, with them and Taylor. Brooke looks taken aback.

Brooke wants Steffy and Thomas to feel secure in their relationship with their father…

but if they’re upset about not having their family together they only need to look to their mother. Taylor didn’t even show up for Steffy’s wedding! Ridge reminds her she was working and suggests they don’t say anything to his kids about Taylor.

Talk turns to the situation with Deacon and Ridge says he believes the decision she and Hope are making is wrong. Hope walk in just in time to hear. Ridge insists they’re going to get hurt and urges Brooke to step up and tell her daughter who this man really is. “Why aren’t you two listening to me?”

At Il Giardino, Paul tells Deacon everything has to be spotless before the inspector gets there… and he has a visitor.

Sheila walks in and muses, “Well, well, well. This is where you’re living. In a storage closet.” She smirks and chuckles as Deacon insists it’s just temporary, until he gets back on his feet. Sheila brandishes the mop and says this is ridiculous — he should just come back to her hotel room. Deacon doesn’t want to let Hope and Brooke down. Hope, Sheila can understand, but not Brooke.

Later, out by the bar, Deacon is asked to serve some beer and Sheila questions if it’s a wise decision for him to be working around temptation. Deacon’s avoiding the bottle, but he can’t return to Sheila’s room or he’ll never have a place in his daughter’s life. Sheila thinks he’s nervous about the sexual tension between them and invites him to come back to the hotel and see what happens. Deacon scoffs, “You got me.” Sheila doesn’t think the future he envisions is going to happen. Deacon says a boy can dream.

He pulls out his phone, says he wants to do something special for Hope, and will text Brooke for ideas. Sheila realizes that this isn’t about Hope at all… he’s doing everything he can to reach out to Brooke.
