What’s stirring up Los Angeles this week? From juicy confrontations to standout quotes, here’s the best of The Bold and the Beautiful for the week of January 26-30, 2026.
What happened on The Bold and the Beautiful

Will Spencer was by far one of the best parts of this week's episode, which seemed like a sentence that would never be uttered. However, Crew Morrow finally arrived as a stellar performer this week, and Will went from one of the most one-dimensional characters in daytime to a complex character with actual layers underneath it all. It took only one business trip out of town with Electra for Will to unpack years of unresolved trauma and establish himself and Dylan as a potential couple with far more chemistry than he has with the jewelry designer.
In all honesty, Electra and Steffy being away from everyone in Los Angeles was the absolute highlight of the week. Normally, they impose their opinions on everyone and make demands about how their loved ones should live their lives, but this week, the distance gave people like Will and Taylor room to breathe. Taylor and Deacon were free to follow their hearts without Steffy charging in and screaming at them for flirting with the danger of Sheila. Without the Forrester women around to dictate how things should be, actual character development could take place.
Quote of the Week - Ivy, "It's not proper. It's not proper at all."
Fabulous guest stars also took center stage this week, a welcome sight on The Bold and the Beautiful. Earlier in the week, television icon Morgan Fairchild popped in as one of Steffy and Electra's affluent jewelry clients, and she did not disappoint. Fairchild is a powerhouse presence on screen, and she possesses an unmatched ability to command a scene, something that truly cannot be taught. An actor either has it or they don't, and she has it in spades.
One of the other celebrity cameos this week was reality television icon Spencer Pratt popping in as yet another client for Steffy and Electra. He portrayed a somewhat 'out there' person who has exquisite taste in high-end jewelry. Despite his real-life reputation for being a controversial reality TV villain, he was quite the opposite in 'reel-life.' Pratt dove headfirst into the character and capped off an amazing week of star-studded appearances.
Although soaps need drama to thrive, sometimes it's the more lighthearted moments that help provide a much-needed balance. Guest stars like Pratt and Fairchild give the show the break it needs from the secrets and the lies, but they don't overstay their welcome, which is why it works so well.
