💍 Ridge Finds Out: “He Can’t Do This”

Eric told Ridge the truth—
Nick was planning to propose.

That was all it took.
Ridge panicked. Jealousy and unresolved feelings took over. He jumped in his car and raced to the marina, determined to stop the proposal at all costs.

⛈️ Storm Strikes at Sea: Yacht Capsizes

Just as Ridge was arriving, the weather turned violent.

Waves slammed the boat
Nick fought to steer
Brooke lost her balance
One massive wave hit—and the yacht capsized

Brooke was thrown overboard, vanishing into the freezing sea.

🏊‍♂️ Ridge’s Heroic Leap

At the marina, Ridge saw the capsized boat in the distance.

Without a second of hesitation, he dove into the ocean, still wearing his shoes, cutting through the waves with only one thought:

Save Brooke.

He found her—unconscious but still floating.
He held her tightly and swam with everything he had left. Every stroke felt endless.

💔 Tragedy on the Beach

Ridge dragged Brooke to the shore.

She coughed up seawater—alive.
But Ridge… collapsed beside her, unmoving.

Brooke screamed
She performed CPR with trembling hands
“Somebody call an ambulance!”
Her voice echoed across the empty beach

He wasn’t breathing.

🫀 Will Ridge Live or Die?

For a terrifying moment, Ridge lay lifeless—pale, still, not breathing. Brooke sobbed over his body, begging him to come back.

This devastating twist changes everything:

Could this be the end of Ridge Forrester?
Did Brooke’s choice cost her the man she never stopped loving?
