Sheila Carter is alive but who did Steffy Forrester Kill that night?
Who is RJ Forrester? What happened to him on B&B?
RJ Forrester is heir to the Forrester legacy in Bold and the Beautiful. While we’ve only got to see more of him since 2023, he has always been around. RJ was first portrayed by a couple of child actors like, Jack Horan and Mace Coronel, then the character underwent a rapid aging process in 2016, transforming into a teenager. Anthony Turpel then took on the role, staying with the soap opera until 2018. Fast forward to April 2023, and RJ made a comeback, this time with Joshua Hoffman giving a fresh face to the character.
RJ is the son of Ridge Forrester and Brooke Logan. When Brooke was pregnant with RJ, she wasn’t quite sure who the baby daddy was. It could’ve been Ridge or it could’ve been his brother, Nick Morone. After a bunch of messed-up paternity tests, Jackie Payne finally ran one that said Ridge was the real dad, just as Brooke was about to give birth. So, they decided to name the baby Ridge Forrester Jr., in short, RJ when he was born in 2004.

As a kid, RJ mostly stayed out of all the drama with the Forrester and Logan families. But one time, he and his sister, Hope Logan, accidentally started a fire in the living room when they were home alone. Child Protective Services got involved, and Brooke and Ridge fought for custody, but Brooke ended up winning in the end. And when Brooke disappeared after a plane crash in the Pacific Ocean, along with Thomas Forrester, everyone tried to keep RJ in the dark until his mom came back safe and sound.
In 2016, RJ returned to LA but this time he was a teenager and has one mission, that was to get his parents back together. With Brooke engaged to Bill Spencer, RJ urged his dad to fight for her love. He even helped Ridge create a romantic gesture by drawing a massive heart in the sand with their names.
Things got complicated when RJ fell head over heels for Coco Spectra, a new intern at Forrester. When Forrester designs ended up on a Spectra runway, RJ defended Coco, insisting she was different from her family. Unfortunately, Coco unknowingly helped her sister, Sally Spectra, steal designs because of a necklace with a hidden camera. RJ stood by Coco even after Ridge fired her, and then, he accepted Brooke’s decision to marry Bill instead of Ridge.
RJ trying to impress his girl let her drive his dad’s Camaro but she crashed into the tree which got them both hospitalized. Thankfully, he just had a concussion and got an earful of scolding from Brooke. When Ridge disappeared in the Persian Gulf after Bill’s helicopter stunt, RJ was relieved when his dad made it home safely. And he was over the moon when Brooke and Ridge decided to patch things up and get back together.

Then after almost 5 years, RJ came home again in 2023 and this time he was actually a social media influencer traveling all around the world. Everyone was thrilled to have him back and said that he was here to stay this time. Despite resisting his father’s efforts to get him into designing, RJ agreed to help his grandfather, Eric Forrester, with his final legacy collection. Due to Eric’s illness, RJ assisted with sketching out the designs. He also developed feelings for Luna, a new Forrester intern. When Luna’s aunt, Li Finnegan, pushed for her to quit, RJ was determined to keep her at the company and he did. Right now he is dating Luna but he still doesn’t know Luna cheated on him with his cousin, Zende.
What will happen next? We’ll have to wait and see.
