It’s a storyline that longtime fans have seen unfold time and time again, but this time, it cuts deeper than ever before. After a year of renewed hopes, promises, and a seemingly stable love story, Taylor Hayes once again finds herself on the devastating losing side of Ridge Forrester’s perpetually wavering heart. Despite her recent engagement to Ridge and the quiet confidence she held during their latest chapter, the Italy fashion event became the brutal setting for her world to unravel in the most humiliating way imaginable.

In one impulsive, breathtaking, and utterly callous moment, Ridge threw away his sacred commitment to Taylor! Seconds after saving Brooke from a near-death incident in Italy, Ridge did the unthinkable: he pulled out a ring and proposed to Brooke Logan! Just like that, Taylor’s carefully rebuilt dreams, her hopes for a future with the man she believed had finally chosen her, were brutally shattered into a million pieces.
