💔 The Shocking Ocean Lie: Brooke’s Manipulation EXPOSED 💔

It was a dramatic and haunting moment that fans couldn’t forget. Ridge had jumped into the ocean to save Brooke, believing she had slipped and fallen, but something always felt off. As Ridge stood at the edge of the beach house, the truth came crashing down in the form of a viral video. Brooke didn’t fall. She jumped. And it wasn’t an accident—she had purposefully staged her near-drowning to manipulate Ridge into coming to her. The shocking footage, captured by a paparazzi drone, shows Brooke throwing herself into the water after giving Ridge a deliberate look, making him think she was in danger.

When confronted, Brooke admits to it all. Desperate to get Ridge back and fix their strained relationship, she claims she was just “acting out of need,” but Ridge feels utterly betrayed. The moment of clarity is too much for Ridge to bear, and with the fury of a storm, he slaps Brooke across the face in a heart-stopping moment that leaves both of them reeling.

But Eric isn’t buying it. “You were raised better than this, Ridge,” he tells his son, his voice trembling with anguish. He refuses to excuse Ridge’s behavior, even as he tries to reconcile the reality of what happened.

Eric’s breaking point comes when he faces both Ridge and Brooke, knowing that the lies, manipulation, and now physical violence have turned their world upside down. “You’ve both crossed a line that should never be crossed,” Eric says, as his faith in both of them begins to crumble.
