Ridge’s ultimate betrayal and DNA bombshell just shattered Eric, plunging the entire Forrester dynasty into an unprecedented crisis!

The gentle candlelight illuminating the Forrester mansion that fateful night of July 14, 2025, stood in stark contrast to the tsunami of fear and betrayal brewing within Eric Forrester’s very heart. Alone in his grand living room, Eric clutched a glass of bourbon, his aged fingers trembling, his mind a whirlwind of torment. He knew the angry voices from upstairs – Ridge and Brooke once more – but this time, Ridge’s tone carried a chilling finality.

I’m finished.” Eric’s expression twisted in disbelief. Was he leaving Brooke? Ridge nodded. “Indeed, permanently. Not just her, either.”
