The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers show that something is going on with Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig), and we still don’t exactly know what.

However, we know that she confided in Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda) that she didn’t want anyone else to know that she was struggling.

There have been a ton of ideas going around, including Taylor faking an illness as a way to win Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) back over.

However, what if everything happening is real and she is incredibly sick? Did she return to town to make amends before her last breath and could this be it for Taylor Hayes?

The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Taylor Hayes At Death’s Door?

The worst-case scenario for Taylor is that she only has a few months to live and wants to make things right in her life before she passes.

It could explain why she showed up in town when she did and also explained her illness to Li. This all seems to be happening at the same time so it’s not out of the realm of possibility.

If Taylor is deathly ill, it would make sense for her to tell her daughter, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), how proud she is of her and all that she has accomplished. While it may seem like a generally nice thing to say, it would mean something completely different if Taylor is dying.

B&B Spoilers – Steffy Forrester’s Reaction

If Taylor is nearing the end of her life, it will have a profound effect on Steffy. We all saw how happy Steffy was to see her mother again and how much of an impact she’s had on her life, even through all the drama.

If Taylor passes away, it could completely devastate Steffy and have her shut down completely.

Everything that she been building and working on could crumble at a moment’s notice and it would create a perfect opportunity for Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) to take Hope for the Future and turn it into something else while Steffy is preoccupied.

Hope could even take the time to go after Steffy for everything she has done lately while her guard is down. Would it be a low blow? Sure. Effective? Absolutely.

What do you think? Should Taylor just tell her family the truth and do you think that it could be life-threatening? Share your thoughts and remember to keep watching the CBS soap to see what happens next.
