Will did a terrible thing…but we don’t really know what it is

How many more times do The Bold and the Beautiful fans have to listen to RJ and Ivy spout off on the horrors that is Will Spencer and that absolutely appalling thing he did to precious pearl Electra when Will didn’t actually do anything to anyone except give a homeless girl food and shelter?

The Bold and the Beautiful’s Will is not the villain

It is both maddening and mind-boggling to hear Ivy (Ashleigh Brewer) go on and on about how Will (Crew Morrow) being nice to a homeless girl was just not proper, not proper at all, while telling Electra (Laneya Grace) how horrible he is for her. She has been fixated on finding any reason to keep Will and Electra apart since last fall, starting from when she learned that Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada) raped Will. While nobody has dared to call it that, it is what happened. In Ivy’s mind, he just slept with another girl the night before he took Electra’s virginity.

She somehow sees Will being a victim of sexual assault as a character flaw and that means he is no good for her delicate flower of a niece (or daughter, we still think that is a possibility). Ivy is absolutely horrible to Will, whether she talks to him or about him, but she is not quite as horrible as RJ (Brayan Nicoletti).

He’s your cousin, RJ

RJ acts like he has barely ever met Will treats him like both a stranger and an enemy. However, RJ and Will are actually first cousins as RJ’s mom, Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang), and Will’s mom, Katie (Heather Tom) are sisters. There should be no reason for these two young men to fight the way that they do. Will seems to agree, but every time he walks in a room just minding his own business, RJ is there to pounce.

RJ never stops telling Will to just get out and leave Forrester Creations. He has no problem telling his parents to just fire will for the sin of giving Electra a sad. All he can do is go on and on about that terrible thing that Will did to Electra when he never did anything to her except give Electra’s alleged BFF a home when she needed one.

Now, Electra knows the truth about the letter and thinks that will change everything, but to RJ and Ivy, Will is a sinister villain, so she had better watch who she trusts from here on out.
