While Taylor was out of town on a business trip, Morgan tricked Ridge into sleeping with her by faking an email from 'Taylor' signalling her approval for him to inseminate her.
Along the way Morgan exhibited increasingly unhinged behaviour - trying to have her confidante Clarke Garrison killed with a python and vowing revenge on Stephanie for not only the 80's abortion, but trying to drug her while pregnant this time to have her miscarry the child.
Massimo Marone attended college at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, with Stephanie Douglas, Eric Forrester, and Beth Henderson.
In Portofino, Italy, Massimo fumed over the growing closeness between Brooke and Ridge, whose wife, Taylor Hayes, had just died from a gunshot wound sustained by Sheila.
Before a mêlée ensued in which Ridge was presumed dead, Massimo was introduced to his apparent daughter with Sheila, Diana Carter.
Massimo celebrated when Ridge turned up alive, but worried his family would be torn apart after Nick and Brooke's "grief sex" left her pregnant.
Elsewhere, Massimo had his hands full with his rebellious nephew, club owner Oscar Marone, whose illegal business practices were responsible for the death of singer Macy Alexander.
Massimo then brought to town James Warwick, a psychiatrist friend of the Forresters, to advise Brooke in her choice between Nick and Ridge.
Massimo supported Nick when he decided to move on with Bridget, then flew off to Italy to rescue Ridge, who had been kidnapped by obsessive ex-girlfriend Morgan DeWitt.
The bond grew fast and in the weeks after their trip, they decided to return to Africa and bring Zende back to LA as their adopted son.
Tony and Kristen are understood to have lived in Florida since 2002, with the pair making regular visits back to LA for key family events, such as the death of Stephanie Forrester (2012), Christmas (2013) and son Zende's wedding to Nicole Avant (2017).
The character was played by Daniel E. Smith on a recurring basis from 2001 to 2002 and made guest appearances in 2005 and then by Rome Flynn, as a series regular, since June 29, 2015.
[4][5] While honeymooning in Africa, newly married Kristen Forrester and Antonio "Tony" Dominguez noticed that they had lost a roll of film.
While helpful to the family in their immediate grief, Tricia quickly fades to the background, moving in - briefly - with Thorne and sharing a short romance with him before he pursued back-from-the-dead Macy Alexander.
An attempt to distract him from Brooke - who was being wooed by Nick at the time - Samantha's overtures ultimately failed and she was largely a character used for exposition dialogue until the death of her small pomeranian dog 'Pucci' in 2004.
Their rivalry is exacerbated when his mother, Jacqueline Payne, reveals to Nick that he is the son of his employer, billionaire shipping magnate Massimo Marone making him Ridge's half-brother.
They get married (a small interruption in their ceremony which reveals that Taylor Hayes was alive stops the initial wedding) at the Forrester Mansion.
Nick later receives an anonymous message from a woman asking to meet him in the Jackie M steam room, and is shocked when he discovers that it is Stephanie's sister, Pamela Douglas.
Gaskill was hired after the ABC Daytime soap opera Port Charles was cancelled, where he played Rafe Kovich.
Harry meets Nick's niece Phoebe Forrester (Mackenzie Mauzy), who is being blackmailed by Shane McGrath (Dax Griffin) into dating him.
[23] In 2021, Richard Simms from Soaps She Knows put Shane on his list of the most hated soap opera characters, commenting that "For some reason, Bold & Beautiful fans didn't want to see Phoebe Forrester hook up with an unemployed, homeless dude who hoped to blackmail her mom with the knowledge that she'd run down Darla Forrester.
[24] Charlie Mason from Soaps She Knows called Carl as his "Favorite Nerd" and referred to him as "the hospital janitor who always seems to know a whole lot more than the best way to mop up a blood spill!
Speaking of his casting, Maroulis stated, "I think they wanted to gear the audience a little younger this summer and sort of shake things up a bit.
In response to this new information, Donna fires Felicia, Thorne and Ridge Forrester since she didn't believe she could trust them while her husband was in a coma.
Owen was made Donna's assistant (detective and paralegal background), due to his growing admiration of her; and he encourages her to keep Ridge, Felicia and Thorne out of the company since she can't trust them.
Donna became more enamored by Owen's knight saving act and they commenced to kiss as Eric Forrester was awaking slowly from his coma.
Later Stephanie confronts him at a restaurant and wants him to tell her that he had an affair with Donna to which he denies stating that it's not as if he didn't try hard enough, but that she really does love Eric.
Owen, Pam and Marcus don't trust Rick, as they think he had a hand in her sister, Phoebe's death, and they, like her father, Ridge, want to protect Steffy.
After Sheila and Sugar escaped the foundry incident which saw Ridge presumed killed, they didn't show up again on canvas until 2005 in Genoa City on B&B's sister soap The Young and the Restless.
Sugar was locked up in 2006 and presumably remained behind bars until 2024, when she escaped, kidnapped and shackled Sheila in an abandoned warehouse, ultimately aiming to frame her one-time accomplice for the murder of Steffy Forrester.
