Donna Logan

Donna Logan is a fictional character from the CBS soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful.

From March 7 to 12, 1991, the role was portrayed by Mary Sheldon,[1] and then by Jennifer Gareis as a series regular from July 20, 2006, to February 18, 2015.

After a failed relationship with Thorne Forrester, Donna left Los Angeles for San Francisco, and returned for special occasions.

Donna returned to LA in 2006, and immediately began trying to persuade her sister Brooke, who had now married Nick Marone, to take Ridge back, reminding her of how long she had fought to keep him.

During a business meeting at Forrester Creations, it was revealed by Felicia that when Donna was eighteen she had given up a baby boy for adoption.

Thorne and Felicia attempted to use this information to drive Donna out of the company, but were shocked when Eric adopted Marcus.

After Eric suffered a heart attack, and was revealed to have been poisoned, Felicia continued to ally with her brothers in eliminating Donna's presence from their lives.

Donna then started a relationship with Nick Marone, but it ended quickly after it was revealed that he and his mother stole designs from Forrester.

Later when Bill leaves Katie for Brooke, Donna ended up in the middle of it and tries to mediate an unsuccessful reconciliation between her two sisters.

In October 2016, Donna briefly returns for Brooke and Bill's wedding, which ends up not happening due to Ridge's interference.

In September 2018, Donna returns for Katie and Thorne’s wedding, and moves permanently back to Los Angeles the following month.
