Rebecca Budig Joins The Bold And The Beautiful Cast

Rebecca Budig takes on the role of Dr. Taylor Hayes in The Bold and the Beautiful.

The popular soap opera, The Bold and the Beautiful, has made a significant casting change by bringing back the character of Dr. Taylor Hayes, portrayed by Rebecca Budig. Fans were introduced to Budig's portrayal of the iconic psychiatrist in a recent episode where Taylor was seen in Monaco, wearing a headscarf and observing the interactions between Brooke and Ridge. Taylor then reached out to her daughter, Steffy, to inform her of her imminent return home.

Previously, the role of Taylor was played by Krista Allen, who departed from the show in November 2023 after Ridge reunited with Brooke. Allen expressed surprise at her sudden exit, mentioning that she had even participated in the cast photoshoot before receiving the news of her departure.

Rebecca Budig, known for her roles in other soap operas like General Hospital and All My Children, shared her excitement about taking on the role of Taylor. She revealed that she had contemplated studying psychology before landing the part, making her connection to the character even more intriguing.

Budig expressed her admiration for her co-star Thorsten Kaye, with whom she had previously worked on All My Children. She praised Kaye's versatility as an actor and his ability to keep scenes fresh and engaging.

Joining The Bold and the Beautiful cast, Budig expressed her enthusiasm for the welcoming and collaborative atmosphere on set, comparing it to her experience on All My Children. She eagerly anticipates fan reactions to her portrayal of Taylor and is looking forward to being part of the show's ongoing storyline.

The Bold and the Beautiful airs on CBS on weekdays at 1:30 p.m. ET, offering viewers a blend of drama, romance, and intrigue through its compelling characters and storylines.
