History: Ridge Moves On
Enter Ashley Abbot. The character of Ashley Abbott originated on The Bold and The Beautiful’s sister show, The Young and the Restless. Ashley had a long history on The Young and the Restless, beginning in 1982. She was a key player in The Young and the Restless for quite some time but was dropped for a while due to budgetary concerns. Then she was picked up on contract by The Bold and the Beautiful. I had high hopes for her stay on The Bold and The Beautiful as they are always in need of quality actors vs. models hoping to break into acting. But, like my dream of Brooke and Ridge falling off a cliff and dying instantly, it wasn’t to be.
