‘The Bold and the Beautiful’ POLL: Stephanie Or Maya – Which Portrait Should Hang Over the Forrester Mantel?

“The Bold and the Beautiful” fans which Forrester woman’s portrait should permanently hang over the mantel in the Forrester mansion? Should Stephanie Forrester’s, [Susan Flannery] the matriarch of the family, portrait go back up or should Maya Forrester’s [Karla Mosely] permanently replace Stephanie’s?

“B&B” spoilers for Monday, February 22 indicate that the fact that Ridge Forrester [Thorsten Kaye] swapped out May’s portrait and put Stephanie’s back up will infuriate Rick. Now, you would expect Eric Forrester [John McCook] to take Ridge’s side, but you never know.

Team Stephanie
No matter how many women Eric married or with whom he enjoyed affairs, Stephanie was always there when Eric came back home. Through thick and thin, better or worse, sickness and health, Stephanie supported most of Eric’s decisions and raised his family in that home. 

We understand why Eric might take Rick’s side over Ridge’s – Papa Forrester isn’t Ridge’s biological father – but Stephanie was the backbone of the Forrester family and they’ve been a bit lost since her death.  We’re guessing Eric will agree with Ridge and Maya’s portrait will come down.

Are you Team Stephanie? Should her portrait be the one in the place of honor over the mantel?

Team Maya
Maya and Rick haven’t been married very long, does Maya deserve to assume the role as matriarch of the Forrester family so quickly? Is Ridge right to be so upset that his mother’s portrait has been replaced by a newcomer to the family?

Rick has every right to expect that the Forrester family respect his bride, but to demand that they must accept Maya as the new Forrester matriarch? Isn’t that a little bit ridiculous? Maybe Rick and Maya should be married a few more years before Maya becomes the female head of the family?
Are you Team Maya? Is it time for the Forrester family to move on? Maybe Stephanie’s portrait should be moved to another room?

Or perhaps “The Bold and the Beautiful” viewers believe neither woman’s portrait should be placed over the mantel? Should the space be empty for a while, maybe forever? Maybe Ridge is waiting to put Caroline Forrester’s [Linsey Godfrey] portrait up there?
