Ridge and Brooke Cry as She Signs Annulment Papers, While Taylor’s Reacts to Ridge Annulling His Marriage

In the Thursday, November 10, 2022, full episode recap of CBS’ Bold and the Beautiful, Brooke demanded Ridge tell her why they were getting an annulment, and Taylor reacted to hearing that Ridge was getting an annulment, when Thomas and Steffy explained he finally let Brooke go.

We also have Wednesday’s B&B recap where Carter comforted Katie, Steffy and Thomas urged Ridge to move on with their mom, and Brooke remembered her life with Ridge after receiving annulment papers.

At Brooke’s, she tells Ridge she didn’t sign the annulment papers yet.

It’s not easy for him, either. She wants to burn them.

He thought this was the best way to handle this, sparking Brooke’s anger.

She wants to discuss this but he has nothing more to say. She begs.

He tells her it’s done. It’s over. She yells, “What’s done?”

What is making him end their marriage?

He says he doesn’t want this. He doesn’t want any of it. She begs him to communicate.

Is it Bill? Deacon? He says no, “neither one of those clowns.”

He yells that all he wanted was humanity. Forgiveness. That’s his boy!

She gave up on his flesh and blood in the worst way. Brooke cries, confused.

This is about Thomas? Ridge can’t battle with her anymore. He tears up. She says she’s expressed concerns about him but that’s it.

She wishes she could believe he changed for the good but she thinks he’s responsible for some of their issues. He’s being manipulative and not entirely truthful.

Ridge gloms on that. “Did you say truthful?” Ridge asks if there’s anything she wants to tell him about Thomas. She’s confused. What does he have to do with their marriage?

Ridge says he loves her and always will. He thought they’d be together forever but he can’t do this. “Why? Why not?”

She asks. He hasn’t told her what this is about.

He goes quiet and she realizes he’s made his decision. He wants Taylor.

She won’t stand in his way.

He hands her the papers and she signs, though both look tormented.

Tears slide down Ridge’s face.

Maybe it’s this decision, Taylor says. She’s happy but wants Ridge to be happy, too.

Thomas argues that she makes him happy. She’s glad he followed through. It’s great for them all but don’t forget that Brooke’s important to him. He has conflicting feelings, as usual.

She can’t help but worry that something will come along and change everything.

She wonders what influenced his decision.

Katie thinks it’s almost as if he has to choose between one family or another.

Liam s says as if you can’t have both after all these years.

Hope thought they were back on track but after Aspen, everything went to hell.

They ponder in depth how things went south. They go around in circles. It’s why Liam always says Thomas is up to no good. Katie goes and Liam and Hope continue to talk.

Liam thinks Thomas is popping a bottle of champagne about this somewhere. Usually, when things go wrong, it’s Thomas’ fault. Why should this be different?
