‘You’re Fired’ — Why RJ Forrester’s Latest Move Has ‘Bold and the Beautiful’ Fans Furious
On ‘The Bold and the Beautiful,’ RJ Forrester got Will fired from Forrester Creations to pursue Electra, but fans are furious over his hypocritical behavior.
The Bold and the Beautiful’s RJ Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) thinks he won a war, but it might have just been a battle. He managed to get his cousin fired from Forrester Creations and thinks she now has a clear path to Electra (Laneya Grace). However, he also managed to anger a legion of fans in the process.
‘The Bold and the Beautiful’ Fans Have Had It With RJ
RJ returned to B&B scene in 2026 after traveling through Europe yet again. Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada) broke his heart, but he’s back in Los Angeles pining for another girl. When Electra and Will (Crew Morrow) broke up for a hot minute, RJ made his move and thought he had won the girl. Even when Electra and Will reunited, RJ refused to leave her alone and harassed her at a party. So, Will took matters into his own hands and punched RJ in the stomach.
One set of bruised ribs later, RJ convinced his family to fire Will, despite the fight taking place outside work and RJ punching Will at work more than once. As RJ smugly told Will, “You’re fired,” fans were left fuming. The next day, RJ took his victim act to new heights, taunting and insulting Will as always. That left fans with a lot to say on social media.
“So this is the only way RJ can get Electra?” one fan asked on X. “By getting her boyfriend fired? He clearly has no game. What a weak punk.”
“On this one, I’m Team Will because everything he said was true. RJ is a mama’s boy. Ridge didn’t stand up to RJ enough, and Steffy was erased even though she supposedly has free will,” a longtime viewer said.
“Do they not see RJ is doing all of this so he can flirt with Electra and Will isn’t around? I honestly hope Electra quits,” another fan commented.
Yet another fan made note of the fact that RJ and his family are hypocrites, considering RJ’s past behavior: “Ridge and Brooke are full of it. Protective of your Nephew. That’s laughable, you totally took RJ’s side. Not once recognizing RJ’s part in this situation. Will hit RJ and he’s fired. Forgetting the part that RJ started an actual fight in the Forrester Creations’ office.”
Will the Forresters see the error of their ways before they lose more employees to Logan? If RJ keeps acting out, that just might happen.
The Bold and the Beautiful airs weekdays on CBS and streams on Paramount Plus.
