Bold And The Beautiful (B&B) fans are not only passionate about the characters they love, they also feel a certain protectiveness about the actors who portray them. Over the past 33 years showrunners have let popular actors go and faced the wrath of viewers. The following are six B&B stars who were unfairly fired.
6. Jack Wagner
Jack Wagner played popular sea captain Nick Marone on the B&B starting in 2003 until he was unjustly fired in 2012. Before he was dismissed, the rumor mill had been abuzz with gossip that Wagner refused to take a substantial cut in pay and drop to recurring status. He would have also had to sign a contract agreeing not to work on any other soaps. Viewers adored Nick and Bridget’s love story and his rivalry with his brother Ridge and were sorry to see him go.
