Sibling Rivalry: Ridge and Thorne Forrester The Object Of Their Affection: Caroline Spencer In 1987, heiress Caroline and playboy Ridge were set to wed, but his unfaithulness broke them up. Caroline then dated his brother, Thorne, and accepted his marriage proposal, despite her lingering feelings for Ridge. Thorne teamed up with Ridge’s new lady, Brooke, and intercepted a love letter to Caroline from Ridge, effectively keeping them apart. In 1988, Caroline and Thorne married but one night, Ridge climbed into bed with her as a prank, and an inebriated Caroline made love to him, thinking he was Thorne. Thorne, doped up on painkillers and booze, shot Ridge in the head, ultimately leading to his divorce from Caroline.

Sibling Rivalry: Liam and Wyatt Spencer The Object Of Their Affection: Hope Logan In 2010, Liam met Hope; they wed in 2012 but later split. She was introduced to Wyatt in 2013, and though her heart still belonged to Liam, they began dating. Later, she was rocked by the revelation that Wyatt was Liam’s half brother. The sibs spent much of 2013 competing for Hope’s affections. Hope and Liam reunited, but Wyatt refused to give up on her, which led to fisticuffs between the bros. After Wyatt’s meddling mother, Quinn, sabotaged Hope and Liam’s 2014 nups, Hope got together with Wyatt, but eventually decided Liam was the one. When she and Wyatt had to go abroad on Forrester business, Hope issued an ultimatum to Liam: Meet her in Paris if he wanted a future with her. But Quinn ensured he was a no- show, so Hope impulsively wed Wyatt. After miscarrying his baby, she divorced Wyatt and moved to Milan in 2015, but in 2018, she came home and eventually remarried Liam.
