Soap icon Ronn Moss is turning heads again — not on the set of The Bold and the Beautiful, but on Instagram, where he’s proudly flaunting a silver-maned transformation. The man who once set hearts racing as Ridge Forrester for over two decades has evolved — and his fans are loving every moment of it.
At 72, Moss is defying Hollywood’s age conventions with the same charisma that made him a daytime legend. No longer dyeing his hair for the sake of the industry, the former TV heartthrob has fully embraced his natural grey locks, a choice inspired by a recent role in a western film. And if his latest Instagram post — a shirtless selfie with a smirk and a silver mane — is any indication, Moss isn’t just accepting aging, he’s owning it.
“I’ve been loving it,” he shared about the grey transformation, inviting fans to weigh in on whether he should keep the all-grey look or return to a salt-and-pepper style. The response? Overwhelming praise. His followers — many of whom still watch his classic Ridge Forrester episodes on YouTube — called him a “silver fox” and hailed him as timeless. One fan even declared him “my KING,” while another nostalgically thanked him for being part of her youth, regardless of hair color.
Moss’s real-life journey post-B&B is as intriguing as any soap plot twist. After exiting the show in 2012, he returned to his musical roots — quite literally. Long before his acting fame, Moss was a rock musician. Inspired at age 11 by a Beatles performance on TV, he taught himself guitar, bass, and drums, and by 14 was playing clubs with his band. That passion never faded.
He co-founded the band Player, best known for the chart-topping hit “Baby Come Back,” and later rekindled his music career with solo projects like Lockdown Lover, Surprise Trip Love, and My Baby’s Back. In recent years, he’s also toured Europe, bringing his smooth vocals and rock energy to fans worldwide.
Ironically, Moss stumbled into acting thanks to his music manager Robert Stigwood — the same man who helped make John Travolta a star. Acting wasn’t even on Moss’s radar until Player hit a touring slump in the early ’80s. That’s when the role of Ridge Forrester came knocking. It turned out to be the perfect fit — and the rest was soap opera history.
These days, when he’s not filming or performing, Moss is globe-trotting with his wife, actress and producer Devin DeVasquez. The couple celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary with heartfelt tributes, proving that romance — like Ronn Moss himself — only grows stronger with time.
In a world obsessed with youth, Moss is a rare breed: a man aging boldly, with grace, talent, and the confidence to redefine what it means to be timeless.
