The Forrester family: Did you know?

*Many people disagree about the birth order of Eric & Stephanie’s children. Well, here is the correct order (from CBS, the official source):
From oldest to youngest: Ridge, Angela, Kristen, Thorne and Felicia.

*But if you take the actors real ages, then the birth order would be this:
Ridge, Thorne, Felicia and Kristen. (Don’t know the age of “Angela´s” Judith Borne)

*Angela was born micro cephalic. As the doctors told Stephanie the girl would die before her 10th birthday, Stephanie hid her away from Eric and told him Angela was stillborn. Stephanie took care of Angela for years in a house in Santa Monica under the name of “Stephanie Douglas”. But Angela died at the age of 14 in an accident caused by her doctor. He replaced her with a look-a-like to keep getting paid by Stephanie. After Eric had found out all about Angela, they discovered the impostor as Deveney Dickson – who in return blackmailed them for money to keep quiet about family secrets (that Thorne shot Ridge). Deveney later left town (for Switzerland) to get plastic surgery from her burn damage.

*Ronn Moss (Ridge) was born on March 4 1952 and is therefore way too old to play John & Susan’s son as he is only 7 respectively 9, years younger then them! But hey, this is a soap – anything is possible!

*Every Forrester child on B&B has been aged (or de-aged) by SORAS (Soap opera rapid aging syndrome). If they hadn’t, Ridge would be 40 (which he is, but not Ronn Moss), Thorne and Kristen would be in their early to mid 30´s, Felicia would be in her late 20´s, Rick would be 12 (born 1990) and Bridget would be 9 years old (born on new year 1992-93). Also, the grandchildren has been aged. Thomas was born in 1998 and Phoebe and Steffy were born in late 1999. The only two grandchildren who hasn’t been aged are adopted Zende and Little Eric.

*The Forrester’s only moved into the mansion when all the kids had been born. Before that, they lived in a small house that is now serving as the Forrester guesthouse!

*The Forrester children all developed different roles in the family while growing up. Ridge was the playboy and mother’s favorite, Kristen was daddy’s little girl, Thorne was the shadow of his older brother and Felicia was the rebel with a strong love for animals.

*Ridge spent a lot of time with Eric´s mother while growing up. A reason to why he is nosy, according to Eric & Stephanie.

*Stephanie practically raised all children single handed while Eric was out building the family company. But the family were close-knit together and grew up with the lesson that family was the most important thing, although Thorne and Ridge wasn’t always close...

*The family has a cabin in Big Bear.

*Eric, Ridge and Thorne have all been married to Brooke and involved with Taylor.
Eric was the first to marry Brooke (1990-1992), then Ridge twice (1994 and 1998) and then Thorne (2001). Taylor was first involved with Ridge (1990-1994), then Eric in 1995, then Thorne in 1997 and Ridge again from 1998 to her death in 2002. Taylor only married one of them: Ridge, twice.

*Stephanie first found out Ridge wasn’t Eric´s son in 2001 when Ridge needed blood after an accident. She realized Massimo Marone was the father – her former boyfriend before she met Eric. The reason why she believed Eric was the father was because she had had her period after her one night with Massimo. Ridge was just a bit premature, which was normal.
