A new younger woman is heading to The Bold and the Beautiful, patriarch Eric Forrester’s beautiful great-niece, Electra. Daytime newcomer Laneya Grace has been cast in the sure-to-be pivotal role.

CBS' new soap Beyond the Gates announced its first casting last week and fans of The Bold and the Beautiful's Karla Mosley (ex-Maya) were thrilled to hear that she was among the three ladies named in lead roles.

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers tease that Taylor’s (Rebecca Budig) bombshell is one hot topic. Friday’s episode ended with the revelation Taylor is dying because of heart failure. She called a meeting with Li (Naomi Matsuda) after making nice with Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) to tell her she was dying.
