Ridge is seriously injured and loses his memory after the accident, Taylor has a chance to reunite

“A Dynasty in Crisis: Ridge’s Amnesia Ignites a Forester Family War”

Los Angeles, CA – Just days after Ridge Forrester and Brooke Logan’s high-profile wedding, tragedy struck. In a shocking turn of events, Ridge was involved in a car crash that left him seriously injured and suffering from amnesia—an incident that has since ignited a civil war within the Forrester family and shaken the very foundation of Forester Creations.

A Sudden Accident – Or Was It?

What initially appeared to be a tragic accident quickly raised red flags. Ridge’s car spun out on the hills above Mulholland Drive, and upon investigation, emergency responders discovered that the brake lines had been deliberately cut. Sabotage was undeniable. But the mystery surrounding who was behind it only deepened.

Memories Lost, Love Rewritten

When Ridge regained consciousness in the hospital, he recognized his children, Forester Creations, and even his passion for design. But when Brooke—his new bride—entered the room, he looked at her like a stranger. The only woman he remembered with emotional clarity? Dr. Taylor Hayes, his ex-wife and longtime love.

Ridge had mentally regressed decades into the past, believing Taylor was still his wife and Brooke was merely a familiar face. The heartbreak was instant. Brooke, still reeling from their recent vows, now faced the unthinkable: the man she married had no memory of their relationship.

Taylor’s Dilemma and Thomas’s Deception

Taylor, caught in a moral crisis, tried to correct Ridge’s confusion—but his condition worsened each time the truth was mentioned. Doctors advised her to maintain emotional stability, and slowly, Taylor became Ridge’s sole source of comfort.

Meanwhile, Thomas Forrester, watching the chaos unfold, saw an opportunity. Quietly and methodically, he began manipulating Ridge’s medical records, altering memory reports, and stalling his father’s recovery. His goal: to engineer a reunion between Ridge and Taylor, rewriting history to erase the Logan influence once and for all.

The Unraveling Begins

But secrets never stay buried. Carter Walton, Dr. Finn, and Dr. Lee Finnegan grew suspicious. Lee uncovered unauthorized entries in Ridge’s medical files—clear evidence of tampering traced back to Thomas. When confronted with the digital trail, even Steffy had to accept the truth: her brother had crossed a line.

The fallout? Explosive. A fierce divide erupted within Forester Creations. Brooke demanded full transparency and legal action. Taylor, devastated, admitted her complicity. Ridge, now slowly regaining fragments of memory—including flashes of his wedding to Brooke—was shattered by the betrayal from his own son.

Thomas was removed from Ridge’s care and suspended from his executive role. Brooke moved Ridge to a private facility. Trust was broken. The family was fractured.

Enter Sheila Carter: The Ultimate Power Move

Just when the Forrester drama seemed to peak, Sheila Carter re-entered the scene. Unbeknownst to everyone, she had been lurking near the accident site that night and captured damning footage of Thomas approaching Ridge’s car—footage suggesting possible sabotage.

Sheila didn’t take this to the police. Instead, she used it as leverage.

Her demand? Public acceptance. Holidays with the family. Acknowledgment as Finn’s biological mother and Deacon Sharpe’s partner. In exchange, she’d keep the video secret.

Deacon was torn, but Finn refused. To him, this was classic Sheila—blackmail disguised as negotiation. But Sheila had anticipated resistance. She changed tactics and took her evidence straight to Taylor, the one person with the most to lose if Thomas were exposed.

A Mother’s Bargain, A Family’s Collapse

Faced with the footage and the threat it posed, Taylor broke. She made a deal to protect her son. The next day, the world saw the unthinkable: Sheila Carter, front and center at a Forrester-Finnegan family brunch, arm in arm with Finn and Deacon, smiling for the cameras.

Back at Forrester Creations, chaos erupted. Brooke was furious. Ridge was blindsided. Steffy was livid. Carter warned of legal disaster. And Eric Forrester, watching it all unfold, whispered the truth no one wanted to admit:

“She’s winning.”

The Legacy on the Edge

Sheila now holds the most dangerous weapon in L.A.—not just footage, but control. Every handshake, every press release, every reluctant smile legitimizes her. And worse, she hasn’t shown her full hand. The original, unedited video remains in her possession—more damning than anyone can imagine.

This isn’t redemption. It’s a hostile takeover of the family narrative. And with Ridge still recovering, the battle for Forester Creations is far from over.

Because in the world of fashion, it’s never just about what you wear—it’s about the secrets you hide beneath the seams.
