Finn’s latest diagnosis frightens Hope and Ridge, with Finn stating that Brooke’s chances of survival rest entirely on her will to fight.
Brooke was so badly injured after the plane crash that the police initially thought she was lucky to still be alive. However, her lifetime has now been drastically shortened. Brooke has lost too much blood, and her brain was severely damaged. In addition, she was diagnosed with burns covering 80% of her body.
Hope was devastated when she saw her mother in this state and directed her anger toward Thomas, blaming him for indirectly causing the tragedy. If Brooke dies, Hope vows not to let Thomas go unpunished.
What Happened to Brooke?
Brooke’s injuries stem from a plane crash. She had been rushing to catch up with Ridge to explain things after he accused her of calling CPS on Thomas and falsely accusing him of child abuse.
Thomas had presented evidence, including a recording of Brooke’s voice, to support the accusation. However, Bill later uncovered the truth and informed Brooke. Unfortunately, by the time she learned this, Ridge and Taylor had already left for Aspen. Brooke hastily boarded a plane to follow them, but tragedy struck when the plane crashed and exploded mid-air, leaving her gravely injured.
The Fallout
Brooke fell into a deep coma after being rushed to the hospital. Finn, who was the attending doctor, managed to save her temporarily but confirmed that her injuries were too severe for survival. According to Finn, Brooke’s remaining time could be measured in mere hours.
Hope was inconsolable upon hearing the news, despite Liam’s efforts to comfort her. Losing her mother, someone she had been so close to since childhood, was a devastating blow.
Ridge Takes Action
Ridge, overwhelmed with guilt, could not forgive Thomas for his role in the events that led to Brooke’s accident. To ensure Thomas doesn’t spiral further out of control, Ridge forces him to seek treatment for his mental health. This decision also serves as a way to shield Thomas from Hope’s impending wrath.
Brooke’s Funeral
Brooke’s funeral is scheduled for the following week, and it promises to be a somber event attended by many who admired her. Despite her tumultuous life, Brooke’s contributions to the Forrester family and Eric’s company were significant.
Steffy, who has always had a contentious relationship with Brooke, will also attend. While she feels a tinge of sadness over Brooke’s sudden demise, Steffy is quietly relieved that this tragedy clears the path for her parents, Taylor and Ridge, to reunite. Steffy sees this as an opportunity for Taylor to finally find happiness.
This dramatic storyline on The Bold and the Beautiful is sure to keep viewers emotionally invested as they navigate the fallout of Brooke’s tragic fate.
