With everyone in Genoa City thinking she was dead, Sheila thought she could start over in the fictional version of Los Angeles on “The Bold and the Beautiful,” but her better angels didn’t win out.
She set her sights on the Forresters and their life right away and thought she’d be a perfect nanny for little Rick Forrester, the son of Eric Forrester (John McCook) and Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang), via Soap Central. She made sure to get rid of the other nanny so that she could get the job, and she did. She even managed to get Eric to fall for her and want to marry her.
However, when Sheila learned that Brooke was pregnant and her ex-husband, Eric, might be the dad, she fudged the paternity tests to make sure Brooke believed Ridge Forrester (then played by Ronn Moss) was her baby’s father. Then, she became Mrs. Eric Forrester, but her marriage didn’t last long.
Sheila cheated on Eric to become pregnant, and Eric immediately knew what she did because he told her he had a vasectomy. He also told her their marriage was over (via Soaps In Depth).
