WithΒ Bold & BeautifulΒ clearly ramping up the legendary feud between the Logans and the Forresters, battle lines are being drawn. As usual, Ridge is caught in the middle thanks to the fact that his daughter and step-daughter are the ones waging war this time around. But like so many other recent storylines, this one has us thinking that thereβs a major player missing. Because while Hope has mom Brooke on hand to offer her support, Steffyβs mom isβ¦ well, out there somewhere.
ButΒ according to SoapHub, a casting call has gone out that leaves us thinking maybe, just maybe, Taylor will soon return to support Steffy the way Brooke has Hope. The site says thatΒ Bold & BeautifulΒ is looking for an actress between 45 and 50 years old to play βSabrina,β described as a βstrong, sophisticated leading lady.β
Sounds an awful lot like Taylor, doesnβt it?
Truth be told, we were big fans of Krista Allenβs take on the character and more than a little shocked when the soap bumped the Emmy-nominee to recurring. Ultimately, that move left Allen rejecting an offer to return for a few episodes, which her agent reported at the time amounted to a few lines in a single episode after months of not having appeared.
Soon after her exit, Allen relocated to Atlanta, Georgia. βThis was the right move for me,β she told us shortly after making the trek. As for Taylorβs future, the actress hoped that eventually, someone new would step into the part. βTaylor is needed,β she told us. βThereβs a big fanbase that wants to see her be there for her kids, and who want to see this woman theyβve loved for decades find happiness.β
Those fans, she pointed out, βspent years waiting for Taylor to returnβ after original portrayer Hunter Tylo exited. βI hope, for their sake, the show finds a way to continue her story!β

Now, unless weβre misreading the tealeaves, it sounds as if Taylor just might be heading back. While we canβt help hoping sheβsΒ well-and-truly over Ridge, there is still plenty of story left to be told with the much-loved character.
