The week of July 28 on The Bold and the Beautiful delivers a full-blown emotional storm that threatens to wreck relationships, reignite old flames, and pit loyalty against longing. As the show’s cast heads to Italy, sparks fly, secrets boil over, and the fragile web of alliances begins to unravel in ways no one saw coming.

Brooke Logan is once again in the eye of the storm. After Taylor Hayes overheard her shameless pitch to rekindle her romance with Ridge Forrester, Taylor wastes no time confronting Brooke directly. With fire in her eyes, Taylor makes it clear: Ridge belongs to her now. But Brooke, never one to back down from a challenge, responds with cool confidence, reminding Taylor that destiny has always pulled her and Ridge back together—no matter how far apart they drift. The backdrop of Italy only fuels Brooke’s agenda, and she’s ready to risk it all.

Eric Forrester, meanwhile, plays puppet master in the shadows. Obsessed with reuniting Brooke and Ridge, he confronts Nick Marone and demands he back off. But Nick, determined to prove he’s the better man, is already planning a romantic proposal in Capri. His confidence may be admirable, but it’s also dangerously naive. Eric, no stranger to manipulation, may sabotage Nick’s travel plans just to get Ridge and Brooke alone on a boat together. And when Brooke ends up in the water during the trip, Ridge’s instincts kick in. A dramatic rescue could reignite their love—or expose more than just emotions.

While Brooke battles Taylor and Nick, Steffy is making a difficult decision of her own. Haunted by Liam’s miraculous recovery and still unsettled from the trauma of recent events, Steffy tells Liam she’s leaving town—with their kids—to clear her head. Her conversation with Sheila, who has bizarrely become a source of support, adds more confusion to her emotional landscape.

But back home, Dr. Finn is starting to see the cracks. His inability to reach Grace Buckingham for medical clarification only adds to his suspicions. Something about Liam’s “miracle” cure doesn’t sit right with him—and worse, he’s sensing Steffy is drifting away. When he finally confronts her about the growing bond between her and Liam, Steffy shuts him down. It’s clear she isn’t ready to have that conversation. And that’s when Finn begins to realize: he might be losing the woman he fought so hard to keep.

In a world where emotions shift with the tide and no loyalty is unbreakable, one thing is certain—every character is playing a dangerous game. Will Brooke succeed in winning Ridge back? Can Nick outplay Eric’s master plan? And is Steffy ready to trade in a stable marriage for a second chance with the man who’s broken her heart before?

In Los Angeles and now in Italy, love is war—and no one is safe from the fallout. What twist do you think will shatter the next alliance?
