On The Bold and the Beautiful, Thursday, April 23, 2026, RJ learned the truth about the letter, Brooke and Ridge scolded Ivy, and Bill and Katie worried about Will — and their fashion show.
What happened on The Bold and the Beautiful
As Brooke and Ridge chastised Ivy for interfering in Will and Electra’s relationship, Ivy begged and pleaded for Electra not to return to Will. Her pleas fell on deaf ears as everyone reiterated what Ivy had done. But Ivy wasn’t about to give up. She announced to Will that he had moved on with Dylan, and Electra had moved on with RJ.
Brooke and Ridge were surprised to hear that Daphne knew about this brief little letter that didn’t really say much. Ivy kept insisting that she was just trying to protect Electra. She knew how Electra felt about Will and then did such a horrible thing. Will finally stopped aunt and niece’s back and forth because he was sick of listening to Ivy tear him apart when he had done nothing wrong.
Ivy was not happy when Brooke and Ridge asked Will and Electra to leave so they could have a word with Ivy. As they tried to leave, Ivy reminded Electra that she was a bright star. She apologized for interfering in Electra’s life because it wasn’t proper. It wasn’t proper at all.
Once Electra and Will left, Ivy tried to explain herself, once again going over all the horrors that was Will Spencer. And then came RJ, who was like a prince. Brooke admitted that she loved the idea of RJ and Electra together, but not like this. Ivy refused to give up.
RJ gets a big surprise
In the showroom, RJ surprised Daphne when he suddenly started talking about Electra and how she shouldn’t be dealing with all this. He wanted Electra to see what she saw in her. RJ went on and on about how amazing and perfect Electra was. At least she had Aunt Ivy on her side. Daphne informed a confused RJ that they may change soon.
RJ insisted that Electra deserved better than Will. He was sure that Daphne did not realize what a horrible person Will was, but it wasn’t his place to tell her. Daphne informed RJ that she knew way more about Will and Electra’s relationship than he did, which hit a nerve with RJ.
After their time in Eric’s office, Will and Electra returned to the design office where Electra tried to focus on work. She finally broke down and once again lamented that her aunt had interfered in her life. However, they couldn’t forget about what the other had done with Dylan and RJ. They (gasp!) kissed.
Electra finally decided to talk to RJ, who had set up a romantic dinner for them in the showroom. Electra worked up the nerve to tell RJ exactly what had happened with the letter. When RJ asked where things stood between her and Will now, Electra said she did not know. RJ also insisted that he still wanted her and begged her not to reunite with Will.
Katie and Bill lament life
Katie’s office looked more like a showroom than a business office as th models donned their powder blue gowns. Katie and Bill were ready for more models to take the runway in Logan (Eric Forrester) designs. Or at least Bill was. However, he did notice that Katie was not as into the preparations as he was.
Bill suddenly shut the “B&B is getting ready for a fashion show” music off and asked the models and seamstresses to leave. He knew that Brooke was who was distracting Katie. She claimed that Brooke hurled ugly accusations, but they were not any uglier than anything Brooke has said before. Katie promised Bill she wouldn’t let Brooke get in her way. She was also worried about Will’s career at Forrester now that they were persona non grata.
Bill didn’t seem to care about Will because he brought the subject back to Brooke, telling Katie that her sister had been out of line. Katie also forgot all about Will, as she lamented how Brooke has been treating her. Bill asked Katie to just let it go, so they went back to talking about Will.
Bill hated that Will worked for Forrester and really didn’t like that he gave them hell about using Eric’s designs. However, he was pleased that his son wanted to chart his own path. However, he still wished he had the chance to mold Will in his own image. Katie hated that there could now be distance between Bill and Will.
