The Bold And The Beautiful Co-Star Hunter Tylo Admits To Having An Affair With
Hunter Tylo portrayed Dr. Taylor Hayes for nearly three decades before departing "The Bold and the Beautiful" in 2019. While Hayes was blessed with many riveting storylines, the bulk of her arc was tied to her drama with her on-again, off-again husband, Ridge Forrester. Until 2012, Forrester was portrayed by actor Ronn Moss, which means that he and Hunter shared many steamy scenes together over the years. But did their sizzling onscreen heat necessarily mean they were involved in real life? Thanks to Hunter, this isn't a question we have to ponder.
Back in 2014, Hunter discussed how her working relationship with Moss had impacted her marriage to late soap opera star Michael Tylo in the early '90s. "[Michael] was very threatened by Ronn and the chemistry we had on screen — we definitely connected with an intense passion," she admitted to New Idea (via Yahoo! Life). "So I did everything in my power to push Ronn away."
In 2005, things took a turn, however, after both she and Moss had gotten out of their respective marriages. "We were both single, and I guess we finally felt free to show our feelings for each other without the fear of upsetting our spouses," she revealed. "It was around the time Taylor was coming back from the dead and I noticed during all our kissing scenes there was no holding back. Before we had only done stage kisses." Scandalous!
Did Ronn Moss confirm an affair with Hunter Tylo?
Unfortunately for soap fans, Ronn Moss has never actually confirmed that he and Hunter Tylo hooked up off-screen. But if you thought that Moss' silence meant the end of their saga, think again. During a sit-down with the French program, Telestar, Tylo spoke more about her purported secret lover and the unexpected drama their fling caused.
In 2007, Moss welcomed Tylo into his home for a get-together. However, his future wife, Devin DeVasquez, wasn't happy with her presence. "Over the course of the evening, things got worse between Devin and me," explained Tylo, who claimed DeVasquez threw her jacket at her (via Nine). "I saw red. I came back into the kitchen, and we were on the floor fighting and pulling each other's hair." She continued, "I regret everything that happened."
Ultimately, the situation led to the end of Tylo's friendship with Moss. Of course, the pair still worked together for several more years without any publicly known drama. However, the distance between them was apparent in 2012 when Moss' unexpected departure from "The Bold and the Beautiful" was announced. Taking to X, Tylo implied she was blindsided. "I hope you got my message I had no idea this was coming," she tweeted (via Michael Fairman). "You know I wish you and your family the best in this world and eternity! I will miss U!"
