The Bold and the Beautiful fans can’t stop talking about the outrageousness that is Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace). A character who was supposed to be the young heroine of the show has turned into anything but, while also becoming one more hypocritical member of the Forrester clan. The family that fired Will for fighting back just can’t seem to stop fighting themselves.
The Slap That Could Change Everything
For weeks, the Forresters have been clutching their proverbial soap opera pearls over the audacity of Will (Crew Morrow) to punch RJ (Brayan Nicoletti), when RJ was constantly provoking him. While that doesn’t excuse Will’s actions, he was fired for his violent tendencies. Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Donna (Jennifer Gareis) even disowned their sister, Will’s mom Katie (Heather Tom), after Will accidentally punched Eric (John McCook) when he was aiming for RJ (who had started the fight). As the Forresters preached against violence, Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) made no mention of when he punched Will’s dad Bill a few weeks back.
Now, during a fight with her former bestie Dylan (Sydney Bullock) over Will, Electra has slapped Dylan right in the workplace. Will anyone care since Electra is a Forrester, and different rules seem to apply? That’s what B&B fans want to know.

“No violence allowed in the office. Electra has to be fired. Rules are rules,” one frustrated fan said on X.
“Isn’t this exactly what she accused Will of being, violent?” another fan asked in agreement. “She and the rest of the Forresters are hypocrites.”
“Electra acting all appalled at will for punching RJ when she goes and does the same thing to Dylan. She is such a hypocrite,” yet another audience member concurred.
Finally, others are just tired of all the Forresters and their constant double standards, with one viewer summing things up with: “Ridge, Brooke, RJ and Electra have now all gotten violent. Three of them at Forrester Creations. Two of them more than once. But that’s all fine and justified. Yet Will did it (never on company property) and everyone freaks.”
