He forbids Ridge from continuing to date his daughter. The headstrong Ridge responds by proposing to her. Just before the wedding ceremony, Bill tells Caroline that he had Ridge followed and knows for a fact that he slept with another woman just a week before. She is furious with her father and goes on with the wedding, walking down the aisle alone. But before she gets to Ridge, she faints.

Bill's efforts are successful, Caroline doesn't marry Ridge. Later, tragedy strikes. Caroline is raped by a man named Ron Deacon. Bill notices how Ridge's younger brother, Thorne, supports her through her recovery. Bill wants Caroline to marry him, and she does. But she's still in love with Ridge, and despite all Bill's efforts to prevent it, she divorces Thorne to reunite with Ridge.

Margo enlists the help of Blake Hayes, who eventually tracks Karen down in Texas, where she goes by the name of Faith Roberts. Bill and Karen are soon reunited. Despite Margo being pregnant by scheming fashion designer, Clarke Garrison. Bill and Margo marry, and Bill adopts the baby. But their marriage does not last, and Margo leaves town with the child.

In 2009, Bill is diagnosed with a terminal illness. It's revealed that Bill fathered a previously unknown illegitimate son Bill Spencer, Jr. In his will, Bill gives Donna Logan a small jeweled container that was empty inside, a symbol of his opinion of Donna. Clarke received a gold medal made of chocolate with a note that read "as fake as your designs". He wills Spencer Publications to his two living children, Karen and Bill Jr., who each receive 50 percent and are named co-CEO. Karen gave Stephanie a final letter from Bill that he wanted Karen to deliver personally. Bill offered his respect for Stephanie over the years, congratulated her on her new partnership at Jackie M Designs and asked her to mentor Karen in business and personally just as she did with Caroline.

Bill also makes a DVD for his son in which he gives him half of Spencer Publications on the condition that Bill, Jr. use the company to avenge Stephanie, whom Bill reveals to be his true love, by taking over Forrester Creations and crushing Eric. Bill reveals Stephanie refused to leave her husband thus nothing happened between them but that he was heartbroken when Eric humiliated Stephanie with his public affairs with Brooke Logan and Donna Logan then fired her from the company she co-founded.

Kristen Forrester Dominguez is the older daughter of Eric Forrester and Stephanie Forrester. At the show's beginning, she was portrayed by Teri Ann Linn. People magazine reported the character to be a "rich bitch". Of her casting, Linn said, "This is an opportunity I had to take". Meridith Brown, an editor of Soap Opera Digest, predicted that Linn would be a "breakaway star" and nasty characters like Kristen "are ones that become very popular in daytime."[4] Linn departed in 1990, with additional appearances in 1992 and 1994. Tracy Melchior has played Kristen on and off since 2001.[5] The character resides in Florida, and only comes to Los Angeles for significant events. She most recently appeared at a Christmas party with the other Forresters in December 2013 and then in February 2017 for Zende's wedding.

Beth Logan[]

Beth Logan is the matriarch of the Logan family, and was a series regular when the series began. She was originally portrayed by Judith Baldwin in 1987.[6] After Baldwin left the role, Nancy Burnett began playing Beth from June 2, 1987, to 1989. Marla Adams briefly played Beth. Adams was known for her role as Dina Mergeron on The Young and the Restless; her casting for the part of Beth was announced on November 24, 1990.[7] In 1994 Burnett returned, and had various guest appearances until 2001. Upon the character's 2008 return, Robin Riker played Beth, who arrived with a "new personality".[8] Riker's portrayal was met with acclaim; Tommy Garrett Canyon News named her "Leading Lady" of the week ending August 29, 2009, along with Susan Flannery (Stephanie Forrester), for their "Epic Battle". Garret said Riker "showed viewers that she is capable of high drama".[9]

As a teenager, Beth fell in love with Eric Forrester (John McCook). However, another woman, Stephanie Douglas, manipulated Eric into marrying her instead. Beth then married Stephen Logan and they had four children together, including Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang). Briefly, it was speculated that Brooke was the product of Eric and Beth's love affair decades earlier, however, it was confirmed that she wasn't. During her marriage to Stephen, he abandoned her and his children, leaving Beth as the Logan's sole provider.[10] In 1991, Brooke married Eric, which upset Beth, who had remained in love with Eric throughout her marriage and break-up from Stephen.[6]

Beth returns to Los Angeles in 2008 at the request of Nick Marone (Jack Wagner), because he thinks her youngest daughter, Katie, who recently had a heart transplant, needs her. Her family becomes worried about Beth's strange behavior. Beth eventually reveals to Katie that she has had several mini-strokes and is also in the early stages of dementia. It takes some convincing from her family, but Beth finally agrees to stay in Los Angeles and receive treatment from her granddaughter Dr. Bridget Forrester (Ashley Jones) and Dr. Taylor Hayes (Hunter Tylo). The treatment appears to be working. Stephen and Beth have also hinted at a possible reconciliation. After a long absence Stephen and Beth reappeared for Nick and Bridget's wedding and it was mentioned that they had been in Paris. Beth dies in the Forrester pool after a fight between her and Stephanie in 2010, devastating the Logans.

Helen Logan was the matriarch of the Logan family, affectionately known as "Grandma Logan." She was portrayed by Lesley Woods from 1987 to 1989, with an appearance in 2001.

Helen Logan was the matriarch of the Logan family, affectionately known as "Grandma Logan." Helen constantly reminded her daughter-in-law, Beth Henderson, that her son, Stephen, had run off because Beth had never fallen out of love with Stephen's rival, Eric Forrester. Living alone, Helen one day opened her door to two men who robbed her and even took her most recent pension check. Afterwards, Helen was invited to move in with Beth and her children, Storm, Brooke, Donna, and Katie. Surprised when Stephen returned to reclaim his family – and unaware that Eric's jealous wife, Stephanie Forrester, had engineered it to keep Beth away from Eric – Helen joined Stephen and Beth when they moved away to Paris.

Helen was in attendance when Brooke married Eric's son, Thorne Forrester, in 2001. By 2003, Beth told Brooke that Grandma Logan had passed away.

Margo Maclaine Lynley[]

Margo Maclaine Lynley was portrayed by Lauren Koslow from 1987 to 1992, with a reappearance from the character in 2002.

Margo Lynley is a divorcée from Wisconsin who worked as personal assistant to Eric Forrester, head of design house Forrester Creations. Margo had a short-lived fling with Eric's son, Ridge Forrester, who wouldn't commit, which prompted her to confess to Eric she'd been in love with Eric for years. Knowing Eric was married to Stephanie Forrester, Margo offered to resign but was allowed to keep her job at Forrester, eventually being invited to join its design team.

Margo accepted the attentions of publishing magnate Bill Spencer, Sr., keeping their involvement quiet since the Forresters hated Bill for trying to steal Thorne Forrester for his company and working to keep Ridge away from his daughter, Caroline Spencer. But Margo also began seeing designer Clarke Garrison, who was married to Kristen Forrester, and became pregnant. Margo hired attorney Storm Logan and threatened to sue the deadbeat Clarke if he didn't pay her $100,000 in child support. Margo delivered a boy, Mark; Margo asked Storm to be Mark's godfather and fumed when Clarke showed little interest in his son.

Hoping to sway Kristen away from Clarke, Margo tracked down Kristen's ex-boyfriend Mick Savage and brought him to Los Angeles, but the ploy didn't work. Though Margo was happy that Clarke finally acknowledged Mark when the infant was hospitalized with a fever, Margo finally gave up on Clarke and accepted a proposal from Bill. Margo designed the showstopper for a joint fashion show with competitor Spectra Fashions on the Queen Mary and was shocked to discover Spectra had the same showstopper, as Clarke had inadvertently copied Margo's sketch.

Margo intervened when young Felicia Forrester began dating tennis instructor Jake Maclaine, initially keeping it secret that Jake was Margo's brother. Margo felt Jake was bad news since he had run away from home as a teen and cut off their parents. After Jake refused her offer of $5,000 to leave town, Margo flew home to Wisconsin to question her parents, who assumed Jake was dead. Margo was stunned when Jake confessed that their father, Ben Maclaine, had molested him. Home to visit a gravely ill Ben, Margo saved Jake from being asphyxiated in the garage by their uncle, Charlie Maclaine, who had actually been guilty of molesting Jake.

Wanting a father for Mark but miserable in her marriage to Bill, who was angry she had kept her family problems a secret, Margo got to know Blake Hayes and freely talked to him about Forrester Creations, not knowing Blake was searching for information about Ridge because Ridge was married to Blake's ex-wife, Taylor Hayes. Margo and Blake embarked on an affair which Margo flaunted to Bill, especially after learning Bill was fooling around with Julie Delorean. Margo thought better of her involvement with Blake when he attacked Bill for catching them together, but by then there was no hope for Margo and Bill's marriage.

Margo was shocked when Jake confessed to stealing Forrester Creations' innovative wrinkle-free formula, BeLieF. Margo knew that Jake was trying to cover for his ex-girlfriend, Macy Alexander, who stood accused of the theft, so Margo asked Eric not to prosecute Jake, then returned to Wisconsin with her brother.

In 2002, Margo appeared via a flashback experienced by her grown-up son, now known as Mark Maclaine, who came to Los Angeles to confront Clarke; the recollection featured Margo advising Mark not to meet with his father. Margo has not been seen nor mentioned since.

Dave Reed[]

Dave Reed was a plainclothes Los Angeles police sergeant who was dating Brooke Logan, a college chemistry student. Dave encouraged Brooke to press charges when she was nearly raped by two thugs, then suggested, against the wishes of Brooke's brother, Storm Logan, that Brooke use herself as bait to put her would-be rapists behind bars. Dave was also on the case when Brooke's friend, Caroline Spencer, was raped by a different assailant, Ron Deacon.

Dave felt lucky to be accepted by Brooke's family, which included Storm, her sisters Donna and Katie Logan, and their mother, Beth Henderson. Dave proposed to Brooke and agreed to wait on a wedding until she had graduated and found a job. Dave was more amused than anything else when Brooke joined her mother, Beth Henderson, on a catering job and became fascinated with the rich Forrester family, who ran fashion design house Forrester Creations. Ultimately Dave received a shock when Brooke broke off their engagement and became involved with Forrester's heir apparent, Ridge Forrester. Dave then disappeared from the canvas and his whereabouts are unknown, though he was mentioned as recently as 2016 when Brooke and Ridge reminisced about their 30-year on-again-off-again relationship.

He was portrayed by Stephen Shortridge in 1987.

OccupationBartender at the Bikini Bar

Irving "Sly" Donovan was portrayed by Brent Jasmer from 1992 to 1996. Sly Donovan was a bartender at a Malibu hotspot, the Bikini Bar. Along with his manager, Zach Hamilton, Sly met sisters Kristen Forrester and Felicia Forrester; Sly and Zach were taken with them both. Sly received a directive from Felicia's mother, Stephanie Forrester, to keep an eye on Felicia, as Felicia had almost been raped because of Zach's ties to the criminal underworld. As Stephanie was the co-founder of the prestigious fashion design house Forrester Creations, Sly obediently reported back to Stephanie when he learned Zach and Felicia planned to run away together.

As a bartender, Sly got caught up listening to the travails of Felicia's brother, Thorne Forrester, who was the center of a love triangle between his estranged wife, aspiring singer Macy Alexander, and Spencer Publications honcho Karen Spencer. When Thorne moved on with Karen, Sly sent Macy an anonymous note asking to be her date for New Year's; Sly took some heat when the disappointed Macy, who thought the note was from Thorne, berated Sly for worming his way into her life. Nevertheless, Sly became friends with Macy and tried to tell her about his growing feelings in a poem, which she laughed at. Knowing his co-worker Keith Anderson had a much better way with words, Sly had Keith write love poems for Macy, which he passed off as his own. Sly was happy when the passionate prose got Macy's attention.

Sly told Macy he'd take care of her when she started drinking heavily because her plans for a reunion with Thorne fell through. Sly gave Macy a job singing at the bar, which his customers loved. After Sly took a drunk Macy upstairs to his apartment for lovemaking, he overheard Keith telling Macy that Sly was moving too fast; Sly warned Keith not to interfere in his involvement with Macy, especially after Keith sent Macy flowers and more poems. Sly felt Macy was drinking too much and assured her worried mother, Sally Spectra, but let Macy have more alcohol when she got upset over seeing Thorne and Karen together; Sly felt that Macy would stop coming by the bar if he didn't.

Sly fumed when Keith let his little brother, Kevin Anderson, help out at the bar; Sly yelled at Kevin when he bumped into a drunken Macy and broke a tray of glasses. Sly refused to hire Kevin even after Keith told Sly that Kevin was mentally disabled. Sly covered for Macy after she moved into his apartment, watching her lie to the visiting Sally that she was sober. Sly broke up a fight between the drunk Macy and a biker chick, then panicked when Macy stumbled off to the beach by herself. Sly found Macy passed out in an alley and reluctantly agreed to let Thorne intervene. Sly sadly watched the newly-sober Macy move out, since she and Thorne had decided to reconcile.

Sly continued to object to Kevin's presence at the bar. One night after closing, Sly found himself at the mercy of a gun-wielding robber and was impressed when Kevin tackled the crook and saved him. Sly admitted he had been wrong about Kevin and gratefully hired him to work alongside Keith. Sly hosted a party celebrating Macy's sobriety, then received a call that Macy had gotten into a drunk driving accident with Kevin in the car. Sly agonized over Kevin's critical condition and breathed a sigh of relief when Kevin pulled through. Sly joined Kevin and the others visiting a remorseful Macy in the hospital, where Sly admitted that Keith had written all of "his" poems. Sly felt horrible when he was forced to fire Keith and Kevin at the bar owner's behest.

Sly struck up a friendship with the innocent, underage Jessica Forrester. Sly became jealous when he noticed Jessica's crush on Dylan Shaw, a Forrester Creations intern who was seeing Forrester model Ivana Vanderveld. Sly found out that Forrester had a "no dating the models" policy, so he went to Jessica's uncle, Eric Forrester, and reported seeing Dylan and Ivana together, which got Dylan in trouble. At Jessica's seventeenth birthday party, Sly saw that Jessica was upset over Dylan and naïvely downing Jell-O shots, so Sly got the drunk Jessica alone to seduce her, only to be stopped by Dylan, who whisked Jessica away.

Hard times fell upon the Bikini Bar with Macy no longer singing there, and Sly expressed his resentment to Dylan. Sly filled out a job application at the Insomnia Café and sheepishly defended himself when Dylan saw that Sly's given name was Irving. Soon Sly found himself under suspicion for writing Macy threatening "fan" letters which were signed by "Irv", but Sly had an alibi that cleared him of any wrongdoing. Later, with Dylan and Jessica taking things slow in a non-exclusive relationship, Sly saw Dylan kissing older woman Maggie Forrester, who turned out to be Jessica's mother, and told Jessica about it. Sly was pleased when Jessica finally agreed to go out with him. Sly also agreed to have Thorne and Macy's wedding at the Bikini.

Sly knew Jessica wasn't ready for anything heavy, yet gave her beer, took her skinny-dipping, and kissed her repeatedly. Frustrated that Jessica wouldn't have sex with him and tired of being given a hard time by his boss at the Bikini, Sly decided Jessica could be his meal ticket and proposed to her, agreeing to give Jessica time to think as long as she wore his ring. Despite his engagement, Sly fooled around with Jessica's friend, Jasmine Malone, whom he'd just hired at the Bikini. The cocky Sly even told Jasmine about his plans for Jessica, which threatened to unravel when Jessica called off their engagement; Sly barely concealed his anger as he told Jessica he would wait for her. Sly changed course and plotted to get Jessica drunk and poke a hole in a condom so he could get her pregnant and force her into marriage.

Sly took Jessica to a beach party to carry out his alcohol-soaked plan, but got so drunk himself he passed out. Sly was thrilled when Jessica informed him they'd made love and later confirmed that she was pregnant. But Sly found his path to Easy Street blocked when Jessica made him take parenting classes and train for fatherhood on a computerized baby doll that wouldn't stop crying unless Sly figured out what the "baby" needed. Sly kept trying to disable the doll, coming at it with a screwdriver and whacking it against the bar, worrying when Jessica said she would leave him if he didn't start taking his responsibility seriously.

Sly finally conceded defeat and went to Jessica to tell her he'd be a lousy father and that their baby would be better off without him. But on his way out of town, Sly changed his mind; he dressed up in a suit and tie, got an interview at a car dealership, and proudly told Jessica he was going to do right by her and the child. Sly's shock turned to outrage when Jessica told him that she knew about his plan to get her pregnant and that she'd lied about carrying his baby to teach him a lesson. Sly laughed it off but seethed inwardly when his friends made fun of him for being a chump. Sly vowed revenge and followed Jessica to the Café Russe, where Dylan had taken her for a fancy dinner; donning a mask, Sly attacked Jessica as she walked to her car, threatened to kill her, and raped her.

Sly reveled in Jessica's resultant suffering. When the skittish Jessica finally came to the Bikini with Dylan after weeks of isolation, Sly comforted his victim, who ended up arguing with Dylan. Sly asked Jessica for a dance and didn't deny it when the way he touched Jessica made her realize Sly was the one who had violated her. Sly met Jasmine for dinner at her place and laid on the sex appeal, whipping off his shirt. When Jasmine's attitude changed after seeing the birthmark on his back that Jessica had told her about, he realized Jasmine knew what he did to Jessica.

Sly waited in the back seat of Jessica's car and stopped her and Jasmine from driving to the police station, instead forcing them to go to the Bikini, where Sly tied them up. Sly ignored the girls' pleading and lorded his power over Jessica, proudly declaring that he had taken her innocence, which she could never get back. Sly scoffed when Jessica offered to get Sly help and swore she wouldn't press charges if he'd let her and Jasmine go, but Sly told them they were going up in flames, as he could get rid of them and collect insurance on the bar at the same time. As Sly started the fire, he caught Dylan untying Jasmine and Jessica and brawled with him in the bar. Sly fell onto a burning table when Dylan threw a chair at him, then burned to death after a blazing beam fell on him from the ceiling and the Bikini Bar exploded.

Zachary "Zach" Hamilton[]

Zachary "Zach" Hamilton was portrayed by Michael Watson in 1992.

Connor Davis[]

Connor Davis was portrayed by Scott Thompson Baker from 1993 to 1998. The character returned to the show in 2000, 2002, and 2005.

Jessica Forrester[]

Jessica Forrester was portrayed by Maitland Ward from 1994 to 1996.

Dylan Shaw[]

Dylan Shaw was portrayed by Dylan Neal from 1994 to 1996.

Ivana Vanderveld[]

Ivana Vanderveld was portrayed by Monika Schnarre from 1994 to 1995.

Maggie Forrester[]

Maggie Forrester was portrayed by actress Barbara Crampton from 1995 to 1998.

Jasmine Malone[]

Jasmine Malone was portrayed by Lark Voorhies from 1995 to 1996.

Jasmine Malone was an aspiring fashion designer who interviewed at knockoff fashion house Spectra Fashions for a job. Jasmine and Spectra's owner, Sally Spectra, took an immediate dislike to each other and Jasmine left in a huff, but got hurt when Spectra's rickety elevator plunged three floors. While in the hospital, Jasmine considered suing Sally, who ended up being Jasmine's roommate when she was shot by deranged designer Anthony Armando. Jasmine and Sally continued to bicker, though Jasmine softened when Sally's tailor and good friend, Saul Feinberg, asked Jasmine to ease off. Knowing Spectra needed a new designer, Jasmine snuck one of her sketches into a pile Sally had received from other prospects; Jasmine was thrilled when Sally liked her work and offered her the position.

Jasmine became a confidante in the romantic entanglements of her friends Dylan Shaw, Jessica Forrester, and Michael Lai. Jasmine was confused when Sally presented her with seemingly complete designs and asked her to alter them. After Spectra produced a collection from Jasmine's alterations and set up a showing, Jasmine found out that Sally had stolen the original sketches from rival fashion house Forrester Creations, which specialized in couture. Jasmine's designs were pulled from the Spectra showing when Forrester's lead designer, Eric Forrester, proposed to Sally on his runway. Jasmine was furious and felt that Sally had made her the fall guy for the stolen designs, so she quit Spectra.

Jasmine got a job at Malibu hotspot the Bikini Bar, where she immediately took a shine to bartender Irving "Sly" Donovan. Jasmine pooh-poohed Dylan and Michael's warnings to stay away from Sly, and continued seeing him even after he admitted he had proposed to Jessica. When fellow former Spectra employee Dylan needed work, Jasmine suggested he check out the Beverly Hills Hideaway, a strip club. Jasmine and Michael witnessed Dylan's stripping début from the front row, which Jasmine helped keep a secret from Dylan's girlfriend, Jessica, who had broken off her engagement to Sly.

Jasmine kept another secret: she knew Sly was planning to get Jessica drunk and have sex with her using a faulty condom so he could get her pregnant and live off her money, but Jasmine said nothing to her friend because Sly was still willing to see her on the side. When Jessica indeed got pregnant and made him train on a computerized baby doll, Jasmine and the other waitresses at the Bikini became annoyed because Sly couldn't make the "baby" quit crying by figuring out what it needed. But Jasmine's annoyance turned to amusement when Jessica began tallying up how much money they'd need for their child because her rich family had cut her off; Jasmine whipped out a calculator and watched Sly turn white as a ghost.

Jasmine counseled Dylan when he started stripping at private parties and was offered $10,000 to have sex with a client, which would help him pay off his tuition at the prestigious Design Academy. Jasmine was surprised when Dylan reported he'd finally told Jessica about his job, and that while Jessica had been upset, she now wanted to be in attendance at Dylan's last performance; Jessica cheered Dylan on with her friends. Jasmine quit the Bikini Bar after Sly, who realized he wasn't cut out to be a father, left town; Jasmine admitted to Michael that she knew Sly had no redeeming qualities but loved him anyway. However, when Sly came back and learned that Jessica had only pretended to be pregnant to teach Sly a lesson, Jasmine lent the furious Sly an ear, annoying him more because she seemed to be on Jessica's side.

Jessica took both Sly and her job back and asked Sly if they could take things slow, especially since Jasmine was having to defend Sly to her friends. Jasmine comforted Sly when his buddies made fun of him for being duped by Jessica, who had been very distant in recent weeks. Jasmine couldn't believe it when Jessica admitted she'd been raped and suspected Sly of violating her; Jasmine was sure of Sly's innocence. But when Jasmine had Sly over for dinner and he whipped off his shirt, she saw the birthmark that Jessica had told her about and realized she was telling the truth.

Jasmine ran to Jessica, and together they agreed to go to the police. On the way to the station, Jasmine panicked when Sly popped out of the back seat and forced Jessica to drive them to the Bikini. As Sly tied them up, Jasmine pleaded with Sly not to hurt them, but all Sly cared about was getting back at Jessica for humiliating him. Jasmine was terrified when Sly declared he was going to set the bar on fire with her and Jessica inside and collect the insurance; as Sly started the blaze, Jasmine and Jessica were rescued by Dylan. Jasmine watched helplessly as Sly and Dylan's fight ended with Sly falling onto a burning table and catching fire. Jasmine was last seen escaping the Bikini with Jessica and Dylan before it exploded; she has not been seen nor mentioned since 1996.

While honeymooning in Africa, newly married Kristen Forrester and Antonio "Tony" Dominguez noticed that they had lost a roll of film. A mysterious boy showed up with the film to return it. As they began to talk to him they formed a bond with him. The boy, named Zende, invited them to visit him before they left the country. Kristen and Antonio were shocked to discover that Zende had been orphaned when both parents died of AIDS. Zende had lived at an orphanage with his younger brother, but sadly, his brother also died of the disease. To help pay his way, Zende worked around the orphanage and helped take care of the younger children. Kristen and Tony discovered when Zende became too old to live in the orphanage he would probably end up on the streets or working anywhere he could find work.

On their return to Los Angeles, Kristen and Tony admitted that Zende had never left their thoughts. They had both been drafting letters to send him. Since Antonio had been battling HIV himself, he felt a special connection to Zende; the couple saw this as the first chance to have a family of their own. They decided to rush back to Africa and start adoption proceedings immediately. They legally adopted young Zende, choosing to give him both of their surnames.

Zende went to live with Kristen and Tony, who have since left Los Angeles (with Zende) and are currently living in Florida. In 2015, after a ten-year absence, Zende returned to Los Angeles and is happily greeted by his uncle Ridge Forrester. Zende decides to follow in the footsteps of his family and is hired as an intern at Forrester Creations, along with Nicole Avant, whom Zende takes a liking to. He attends the wedding of his uncle Rick Forrester and Nicole's sister Maya Avant as her date. When Nicole tells him that his cousin Thomas Forrester unexpectedly kissed her, Zende is not fazed by it. In fact, he asks Nicole out on a date and even gives her a kiss. They then decide to officially become a couple. He even supports her when she decides to be Rick and Maya's surrogate despite objections from her parents.

Massimo Marone IV is a fictional character from the CBS soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful. He was portrayed by Joseph Mascolo.

Brief Character History[]

Massimo Marone attended college at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, with Stephanie Douglas, Eric Forrester, and Beth Henderson. Massimo dated Stephanie prior to her dating Eric, who was involved with Beth. Stephanie got pregnant and married Eric; Massimo went on to build the shipping conglomerate Marone Industries.

Massimo arrived in Los Angeles to expand his business and reconnect with Stephanie, who had stayed in touch with Massimo since her first divorce from Eric. Massimo ran afoul of Eric, co-founder of design house Forrester Creations, and denied Eric's contention that Marone Industries was linked to the mob. Massimo knew Stephanie wanted to be rid of Eric's ex-wife, Brooke Logan, who was now pursuing Stephanie's married son, Ridge Forrester; when Massimo blamed Eric for Stephanie's problems with Brooke, Massimo found Eric's fist in his face. Still enamored of Stephanie, Massimo offered to get Brooke out of the way; Massimo located Brooke's father, Stephen Logan, in Paris and paid Stephen $5 million to feign health problems in order to convince Brooke to join him overseas. Massimo gained an enemy in Ridge when his machinations were discovered.

Massimo and Stephanie reminisced about a final evening they'd shared before Stephanie married Eric. Massimo called 9-1-1 when Ridge confronted Massimo in his office and hurt himself badly, after which Stephanie began acting strangely. Massimo was stunned when Stephanie confessed that blood work revealed Massimo was Ridge's father, not Eric. Massimo was thrilled until Stephanie swore him to secrecy; instead, Massimo decided to groom Ridge, who was having problems at Forrester, to take over Marone Industries. To force Ridge into coming over to him, Massimo trained Ridge's half-brother, Rick Forrester, to compete against Ridge in the boardroom.

Massimo romanced longtime friend Sally Spectra to keep her from discovering Ridge's paternity, then told Stephanie if he couldn't have her, he would have Ridge. Massimo hired Ridge at Marone and made him his sole heir. Getting nowhere with Stephanie, Massimo met a mysterious woman in a bar and had a tryst with her, granting her request to take her out of the country. But Massimo got the shock of his life when Stephanie heard the woman's voice on Massimo's answering machine and realized he had been seeing Sheila Carter, whose extensive criminal history included trying to kill Stephanie. Massimo and Stephanie rescued Rick's wife, Amber Moore, who had been framed and kidnapped by Sheila to clear the way for Sheila's daughter, Erica Lovejoy, with Rick.

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. Complaining to Brooke's daughter, Bridget Forrester, Massimo let it slip that Ridge was his son. When Bridget realized that she and Ridge weren't related after all, Massimo encouraged Bridget to pursue Ridge to get him away from Brooke; as extra insurance, Massimo tasked Brooke's ex-lover, Deacon Sharpe, with seducing Brooke away from Ridge. But after Stephanie tried to discourage Ridge and Bridget's burgeoning feelings by sending medical student Bridget away for education in Copenhagen, Massimo told an incredulous Ridge that Eric wasn't his father.

One of Massimo's tankers went aground, so Massimo went to Mexico to confront its captain, Nick Payne. Massimo met Nick's mother, Jackie Payne, and didn't immediately recognize her, but when Massimo saw that he and Nick wore the same signet ring, Massimo remembered having a fling with Jackie and found out Nick was his son only after Jackie admitted it during a plane crash. Massimo hired Nick at Marone and tried to get him interested in Brooke, who was reuniting with Ridge. Massimo had Eric removed by security guards after the furious Eric learned the truth about Ridge's paternity.

Bonding over Nick, Massimo and Jackie renewed their romance and got married. Soon after, Ridge was kidnapped; Massimo tracked him to South America and was shocked to find Ridge being held captive 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.

As Massimo refereed his sons fighting over Brooke, Massimo became jealous of Jackie's friendship with Eric and hired Deacon to dig up dirt on him. Massimo then brought to town James Warwick, a psychiatrist friend of the Forresters, to advise Brooke in her choice between Nick and Ridge. Massimo began to suspect Jackie of having an affair and caught her on the phone with Deacon, so Massimo held a gun to Deacon's head, then hired him to find out who Jackie's lover was. On the day of Nick's wedding to Brooke, Massimo and Nick were arrested for bribing foreign agents based on information Ridge found on Nick's computer, but they were ultimately released for lack of proof.

When it came out that Ridge was the father of Brooke's baby after all – and that Jackie knew about it – Massimo served Jackie with divorce papers, but soon forgave her and bought her a chain of department stores, which he rebranded Jackie M. Massimo was about to make Deacon president of Jackie M when he learned of Deacon's affair with Jackie and suffered a stroke, rendering him unable to speak. Massimo plotted his revenge as Deacon, who believed Massimo was unaware of his surroundings, flaunted his affair with Jackie in front of Massimo and drugged Jackie to taunt him. After Nick arranged for Massimo to undergo experimental treatments utilizing electrical impulses, Massimo recovered and tormented Deacon with a gun, then laughed as he revealed it was loaded with blanks.

Massimo divorced Jackie, then spiked recovering alcoholic Deacon's drink as revenge, causing Deacon to fall off the wagon. 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. Massimo reestablished a friendship with Jackie, but ultimately decided not to reunite with her. While standing in as a witness for Stephanie while she removed stocks from her safe, Massimo discovered paperwork that named Stephanie as the sole owner of Forrester Creations; Massimo contacted Genoa City billionaire Katherine Chancellor, who confirmed a trust established by Stephanie's father, John Douglas. Massimo was on hand as Stephanie kneed Eric in the groin for his deception.

Massimo thought he finally had a chance with Stephanie until she went back to Eric. After Ridge had a heart attack, Massimo changed his tune and threatened Brooke, warning her to steer clear of Nick, who wanted Brooke back. Massimo bribed Forrester secretary Megan Conley into helping him frame Jackie for tax fraud, tax evasion, and money laundering, then promised Jackie he'd clear her if she helped keep Brooke and Nick apart for Ridge. Massimo faced Nick's wrath after he caught Massimo and Megan conspiring together, and Massimo was removed as CEO of Marone Industries.

Massimo disappeared from the canvas after he and Stephanie failed to stop Nick's wedding to Brooke by publicizing nude outtake photos from her Brooke's Bedroom lingerie line. Though Massimo hasn't been seen since 2006, he is often referenced, usually to reiterate that Ridge is Massimo's son and thus not a Forrester.

After many problems, Nick underwent therapy with Taylor. He told her about Jackie's days in Seattle, when she became a prostitute to support herself and Nick. Stephanie overhears Taylor recording her notes of Nick's session and publicly announces Jackie's past at the first Forrester Creations fashion show under Nick's management. Much turmoil followed between Nick and the Forresters. Despite the growing animosity between the Forresters and the Marones, Taylor remained Nick's friend. After Taylor's relationship with Thorne ended. Taylor and Nick almost automatically fell in love and married each other.

Pam informs him that Stephen Logan left her and confesses to finding Nick increasingly attractive, but Nick initially rejects her advances. Meanwhile, Jackie M is facing a tough situation. After firing Amber Moore for stealing Forrester designs, Jackie begins to worry as they do not have a designer.

It was a delightful exercise to dig a little deeper and see where it took me."[23] The child abuse story arc was one of many that won the series critical acclaim for handling social issues.[24] White reprised the role in November 2009 when Ann returns to make amends with her family before she dies.

Owen Knight is a fictional character from the American CBS soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful. Created by Bradley Bell and Kay Alden, Owen was portrayed by Brandon Beemer and made his debut on July 2, 2008. Beemer was dropped to recurring status in January 2012, but continued to appear up until February 29, 2012, when he left the show altogether.

Storylines[]

Owen Knight arrives in Los Angeles in July 2008 to see a client of his, Marcus Walton. Marcus hired him from a want ad online to find his biological mother. Marcus doesn't really know Owen since most of their correspondence have been online. Owen meets Donna Forrester and is instantly attracted to her. Donna's stepdaughter Felicia Forrester (Lesli Kay) notices this and offers Owen $200,000 to seduce Donna in an attempt to get Stephanie Forrester (her mother) and Eric Forrester (her father) back together. He appears to be intrigued by the offer and tells her he'll think about it. However, after meeting Donna he becomes enamored by her love and devotion to Eric and comes back and rejects the deal. Felicia is outraged and outraged even more when Owen tells Donna what Felicia did. 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. Felicia was outraged by Owen and slapped him for telling Donna her plan. The Forresters therefore, decide to make it their goal to get Donna out of their father's life once their father comes out of the 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. He works as a voice of reason to her. Owen is shown to be a dissembler, causing friction among the Logans and Forresters due to his influence over Donna. Despite their collaboration to find his mother, Marcus is starting to question Owen's motives in regards to his mother. He believes Owen is manipulating Donna and confronts his mother. Donna listens to her son and begins to question Owen. Donna starts to become suspicious of Owen also since he seems too good to be true and becomes concerned when he tells her he loves her. She and he share a few kisses and she decides that it's best if she lets him go. He agrees and leaves the company but doesn't leave Los Angeles.

It was later discovered that Eric didn't have a heart attack, but he had been poisoned with potassium chloride which had been put in a bottle of gin that Eric had a drink from before he had sex with his wife. Thanks to some detective work by step-siblings Marcus and Bridget, the truth came out, and it could well be Owen whom the suspicion could fall on. On August 22, Owen was arrested for attempting to murder Eric Forrester. He was almost the target of attack by Ridge and Thorne, and even Donna was angry with his actions. However, he insisted that he was taking the blame for someone else, that person being Donna, who was on the verge of being arrested until he lied and said he poisoned Eric Forrester. His suspicions were indeed correct when it was discovered that Donna's arch-enemy, Pamela Douglas (Alley Mills), was the one who accidentally poisoned Eric (in an attempt to stop the lovemaking between Eric and Donna; thinking this would lead to Eric returning to her sister Stephanie) and then saved her when she tried to kill her with a shotgun; and a bear. Donna became more enamored by Owen's knight saving act and they commenced to kiss as Eric Forrester was awaking slowly from his coma. Stephanie and Ridge send Donna and Owen both on a trip after Stephanie catches Donna and Owen in the bedroom kissing. However, they haven't been officially intimate in spite of the appearance. Recently Donna and Owen returned from their business trip unaware that a recovered Eric is down the hall from Kristen's old bedroom. Owen commences to kiss Donna and get her to try to move on with her life without Eric. Eric hears noise and catches them kissing each other.

In light of Eric's recovery Donna tells Owen that she can't be with him because she loves her husband. He refuses to leave and tells Donna that he loves her. He grabs her into a passionate kiss to which she responds. Owen continues to be an ambiguous thorn in Donna's side. She loves her husband but Owen captivates her passions. After discovering that Owen attempted to sleep with Donna her aunt, Bridget Forrester walks over and throws a glass of wine in Owen's face. And then walks away to eat a salad while sitting outside at a restaurant. Owen confronts her and tells her that he really does love Donna and Bridget breaks out into a tirade about men not being able to keep it in their pants to which Owen replies okay, "She can be down on men." And "he can be down on women." He continues to flirt with her.

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. Donna catches this and assumes Stephanie and Owen plotted the seduction attempt. And she relays to him that she "never wants to see him again." Owen tries to attract Bridget, but nothing comes of that; however, he, along with Marcus and Pam Douglas, confront Rick on his attraction to Steffy. 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.

Having been fired from Forrester Creations, Owen got a job at Jackie M Designs. He started a fling with Jacqueline Marone. He also was dating Bridget, but this was short-lived since Bridget was still harboring feelings for her ex-husband Nick Marone and got back together with him. Jackie and Owen also got together, much to the irritation of Nick, who was convinced that Owen was only interested in Jackie for her money. Nick tried his best to break Owen and Jackie up, and even managed to convince Jackie to fire Owen. However, Owen countered with a proposal of marriage, which freaked Nick out even more. Nick vowed never to let Jackie marry Owen. Eventually, Owen took Jackie on a surprise vacation in Hawaii, unaware that Nick and Bridget were honeymooning there. Owen planned a wedding for Jackie, but Bridget found out about it and told Nick. Nick tried to stop the wedding, but he arrived too late.

Later, Bridget and Owen have a one-night stand after she loses her and Nick's baby. Owen gets Bridget pregnant, but while Bridget is aware of this, she chooses to keep it a secret until Aggie Jones finds out, forcing her to tell the truth. Nick subsequently divorces her.

Bridget and Owen's baby was born in October 2010. Bridget confessed that she had fallen in love with Owen and wanted to start a family with him. Although Owen appreciated her honesty, he stayed true to his wife and again proclaimed his love for her, leaving Bridget heartbroken. Nick eventually fires both Bridget and Owen from Jackie M Designs, although he later hires Owen back.

Jackie eventually ended the marriage, realizing that Owen belonged with his family and sorrowfully asking him for a divorce. Owen asked Bridget to move in with him, but their relationship ended in February 2012, allowing Owen to return to his marriage with Jackie. Jackie and Owen later sold their house and moved to New York to be with Bridget and Logan.

Casper Knight[]

Owen Knight's twin brother, who appeared in three episodes in 2009, was portrayed by Brandon Beemer .

Graham Darros[]

Graham Darros was played by Justin Baldoni in 2010. Executive producer and headwriter Bradley Bell announced the role in late 2009, describing Graham as, "a well-known fashion photographer who is hired by Steffy to work for Forrester Creations. It soon becomes evident that he has a sinister and mysterious past with another major character." He spoke of Baldoni as "a compelling young actor who will be able to bring forth the intensity that is essential for the character of Graham."[35]

Beverly[]

Beverly is portrayed by Gina Rodriguez since 2011. Beverly was named for Beverly Hills before being placed in foster care and was a friend of formerly homeless Dayzee Leigh. Stephanie Forrester, who befriended Dayzee on the street and bought the Insomnia coffeehouse for Dayzee to run, was impressed with Beverly's determination to make something of herself and convinced her family to hire Beverly as an intern at Forrester Creations. Hope Logan caught the inexperienced Beverly taking photos of Forrester gowns with her cell phone. Later, when the dresses showed up on Jackie M's runway, Hope and Stephanie accused Beverly of selling their collection to their competitor, prompting Beverly to run away. Stephanie's sister, Pam Douglas, the real thief, felt bad that Beverly was taking the fall for her. Jackie Marone affirmed Beverly's innocence to Stephanie, noting that the intern hadn't worked at Forrester long enough to steal an entire line. Realizing their mistake, Stephanie and Hope tracked Beverly and Dayzee to a bus in Whittier; Stephanie stood in front of it to get it to stop. An angry Beverly dashed into a gated apartment complex. Dayzee explained it was transitional housing for kids who had aged out of the foster care system. Stephanie wore Beverly down by recounting her experience as an abused child, even admitting she'd gotten pregnant and married Eric as a way out of her father's house. Beverly agreed to return to Forrester, then introduced Stephanie and Hope to other residents of the home. After meeting Rick Forrester, Beverly gushed to Dayzee that he was "definitely into" her. Though a jealous Amber Moore threatened Beverly to stay away, Beverly held her own. She later disappeared from the canvas but was presumed to still work at Forrester.

He DJ'd for a party that Bill Spencer Jr. set Jesse Graves up at who was the reason Maya went to jail so Caroline, his niece, could be with Rick again. Othello then showed up to DJ the Hope for the Future line that would cement Rick's role as president.

Rick used Othello to lie to his sister Hope Logan that Hope fiancée Liam Spencer slept with his ex-wife Steffy Forrester the night before his wedding to Hope. Othello was reluctant to go along with Rick's manipulation and refused to directly lie to Hope but did confirm Rick's lies.

Othello showed up to help Bill and Brooke Logan climb a mountain in Aspen, Colorado. Bill slipped and was dangling but he saved himself from falling.

Othello questioned Oliver Jones about his relationship with Alexandria Forrester right after Ridge Forrester almost fired him, thinking Oliver found a way to keep his job.

But Karen finally revealed that Danielle was her partner and a second mother to Caroline. Karen arranged a job interview at Spencer for Danielle, who promised she wouldn't tell Karen's half-brother, Bill Spencer, Jr., about their relationship. Bill was intrigued by Danielle's international exploits as a writer and mistakenly thought Danielle was hitting on him. With Danielle's coaxing, Karen finally came out to Bill, expecting the worst from her brother. However, Bill surprised Karen and accepted Danielle into the family.Karen reveals to she has been in a long-term relationship with Danielle after years of being forced by their father to hide her lifestyle. Karen also reveals her father threatened to disown and disinherit her, refused to meet Danielle or acknowledge that Karen had a partner, and attempted to marry her to a junior executive at Spencer Publications for show. Bill and Karen agreed to keep her secret from everyone. Later, Danielle and Karen were outraged when Caroline fell from a two-story balcony while arguing with Bill, and supported Katie when she staged an intervention to deal with Bill's drinking. Danielle commented that she had observed Bill relying too heavily on alcohol more than once. Danielle was stunned when Hope Logan, Bill's almost-daughter-in-law, crashed through the window with a golf club during the intervention and exposed Bill's illegal efforts to sabotage Hope's wedding to Bill's son, Liam Spencer. Danielle lent Caroline an ear when Caroline complained that her boyfriend, Rick Forrester, wasn't paying attention to her. Danielle was surprised to hear Caroline, who ran charitable organizations, demeaning the less fortunate, as Rick had taken an interest in down-on-her-luck singer Maya. Danielle was further dismayed when Caroline claimed that Karen and Danielle had spoiled her by raising her to have expensive tastes.
