‘Bold And The Beautiful’ Spoilers: Will Bill Die After Brutal Fall?

His battle with Ridge has been boiling for some time, and now, things may have finally reached a point of no return, as Bill’s life hangs in the balance following their latest battle on the Tuesday, Oct. 23 episode of “The Bold and the Beautiful.”

Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) previously thought he had been successful at beating his enemy once and for all on the CBS soap when he rigged Bill’s (Don Diamont) custody battle with Katie (Heather Tom) against him. Since then, however, a new threat from him emerged in the form of kisses Bill shared with Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang). Furious over what he’s been doing, Ridge, along with Thorne (Ingo Rademacher), went to confront Bill and order him to leave Brooke alone. Naturally, the fight between the men took a physical turn, and by the time it was over, Bill was on his back and on the ground after falling from the balcony of his home, as Ridge emerged back into living room.

Now, B&B spoilers tease that Bill’s life hangs in the balance, and after seeing him on the ground, things don’t look good for the Spencer patriarch. This will be the second major health crisis he has faced in less than a year after Taylor (Hunter Tylo) shot him in the back with his own gun back in March, and a major fall from his balcony to the ground below also doesn’t bode well for him.

Of course, his fall also doesn’t bode well for the Forrester brothers, especially Ridge. Thorne didn’t see what happened when the fight carried outside because he had been knocked to a different space in the room when Bill punched him in the nose. Without any witness, it now will beg a major question of whether Bill simply stumbled on his own and fell during the fight, or if Ridge pushed his enemy to his potential death.

For now, though, the focus will remain on whether or not Bill can pull through and survive the fall—because a lot is at stake for everyone if he doesn’t make it out alive.

“The Bold and the Beautiful” airs weekdays at 1:30 p.m. EDT on CBS.
