One area where “The Bold and the Beautiful” always shines bright is with forbidden love.

None ofSteffy’s previous loves on “The Bold and the Beautiful"worked out.

Bill couldn’t help but enjoy the extra attention that came from a young, gorgeous woman like Steffy.

Still, his relationship with Katie was a roadblock to any genuine romance.

So she kissed Bill.

As part of his Forrester takeover, Bill named Katie the CEO of Steffy’s family company.

No matter what, the attraction was mutual, and it was still present (viaSoap Central).

In typical Bill fashion, he couldn’t help but fall victim to his own desires.

However, Steffy’s successful duping didn’t end their romantic entanglement.

Instead, it grew more steamy and complicated with much higher stakes involved.

Steffy used this to her advantage, once again attempting to seduce Bill.

Katie never understood Bill at his core, always believing she could change him.

With Steffy, Bill could be himself, not having to worry about being judged.

By this point, Bill was ready to end things with Katie to be with Steffy (viaSoaps.com).

Beyond that, Katie’s reoccurring cardiac struggles reared their ugly head, destroying any chance at a relationship.

The latter triggered another betrayal involving Steffy and Bill.

After being trapped inside a building demolished by Bill, Liam and Sally thought they were going to perish.

Under the impression they were on the brink of death, they shared a kiss in the rubble.

Steffy was incensed after Liam confessed.

However, in typical soap fashion, the drama didn’t end there.

They all had the surprise of their lives in store (viaSoap Hub).

Unfortunately, Steffy’s surprise pregnancy complicated matters.

Bill continued to pursue Steffy, with the intent of marrying her.

She endeavored to focus solely on her daughter going forward.

However, Bill is still in a state of flux, struggling to commit to one woman.
