The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers recap for Friday, November 18, reveals that Douglas Forrester (Henry Joseph Samiri) raised Ridge Forrester’s (Thorsten Kaye) suspicions while Taylor Hayes (Krista Allen) fixated on the secret Ridge kept from her in Aspen.
At the Forrester mansion, the house was all decked out for the wedding as Taylor looked around.
Taylor caught Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) peeking at her bridal gown upstairs and shared a sweet moment with her as they gushed over the nuptials.
Steffy offered to help with Taylor’s hair, but she could tell her mother seemed pensive. Taylor admitted she couldn’t stop thinking about this whole CPS thing.
It was the reason Ridge came to Aspen, but he didn’t tell Taylor – probably because she would’ve kept running.
Taylor acknowledged that what Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) did must’ve really hurt Ridge.
Steffy assured Taylor that the CPS call was just a reminder of who Brooke was and made Ridge see he wanted a woman of integrity like Taylor.
After Taylor wished Phoebe Forrester (MacKenzie Mauzy) and Stephanie Forrester (Susan Flannery) could be there today, Steffy assured her mom that they were.
Steffy was convinced that Taylor was finally getting her happily ever after with Ridge.
In Douglas’ room, he looked at the voice recordings on his phone before Thomas entered.
Douglas hid the phone under his pillow and was reluctant to watch the wedding, but Thomas was counting on him to attend.
However, Douglas wondered if Thomas was really counting on him to keep quiet about what Thomas did to Grandma Brooke and Ridge!
At Forrester Creations, Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) offered to get the cufflinks Ridge needed from the hall closet drawer at Brooke’s house.
Although Carter was happy to help, he knew Ridge still loved Brooke.
Once Ridge was alone, he looked at Brooke’s framed photo before heading to the Forrester mansion.
That’s where Ridge met up with Thomas and joked about Forrester weddings always bringing drama.
Thomas insisted that wouldn’t happen this time and added that everything would be worth it to see his parents happy together again.
Although Thomas knew Ridge wasn’t marrying Taylor because of Brooke’s CPS call, he still wished Ridge hadn’t told everyone about it.
Thomas thought they should at least agree not to tell Brooke and said she could never know.
As Douglas came downstairs, Ridge said he didn’t want to talk about Brooke or the call she made – though he still thought people deserved to know the truth.
When Douglas appeared looking dapper in his suit, Ridge said his grandson was in trouble for showing up the groom.
Since Douglas seemed down, Ridge assumed he wasn’t interested in a boring wedding.
Douglas admitted that wasn’t it and said he wanted to be happy for his grandparents, so Thomas cut him off and said that he should be.
Once Douglas got permission to wait in his room until the wedding, Ridge wondered if he was OK.
Thomas acted like Douglas was fine and urged Ridge to focus on making Taylor the happiest woman ever today.
Ridge told Thomas how proud he was of the man and father he’d become.
This day wouldn’t have happened without Thomas’ help, so Ridge pulled him in for a hug. Thomas embraced Ridge and looked nervous over his shoulder.
Back at the office on Friday’s B&B episode, Katie Logan (Heather Tom) told Eric Forrester (John McCook) that Brooke was the real love of Ridge’s life.
Eric agreed, so Katie asked why Eric was supporting Ridge’s marriage to Taylor.
At Brooke’s place, Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) came over to support her and point out that nothing was going to stop the wedding.
Instead of dwelling on that, Bill urged Brooke to move forward and turn the page on Ridge.
As Bill asked for another chance, Carter appeared and overheard how Bill never loved Katie the way he loved Brooke.
Bill said he’d be totally devoted to Brooke and insisted she was the woman he wanted, not Katie.
That left Carter scowling as he continued to listen in. We’ll pass along updates as other B&B news becomes available.
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Carter’s anger will bubble up thanks to his eavesdropping session, so stay tuned!
