When Forrester’s head model Donna Logan turned her attentions to Eric Forrester, who had been forced by Nick Marone to divorce Stephanie, she made an instant enemy of his ex-wife, and her children were none too pleased about her having an eye for their father either.
Donna was locked in the steam room by Stephanie’s offspring, Felicia and Thorne, who wanted to prevent her from appearing in the fashion show.
Donna had to compete with Jackie M for Eric’s affections, which was no small feat considering the woman was brazen enough to show up in the Forrester head’s house… in a bubble bath!
Despite the challenges, Donna accepted Eric’s proposal at Big Bear. He put the rock on her finger and plans were made to wed. The blonde, however, had no idea what she would still face on the road to becoming Mrs. Eric Forrester. Had she realized, she might have reconsidered!
Eric and Donna made quite the team both on and off the fashion runway. In the office, for example. If you don’t believe us, ask her dad, Stephen Logan!
Donna was accused of shooting Stephanie, who blackmailed the blonde into leaving Eric after discovering it was really her brother, Storm, who had pulled the trigger. Donna acquiesed in order to keep her sibling out of prison. She and Eric convinced Stephanie they’d broken up, but…
Eric and Donna kept seeing one another and held clandestine meetings to make a little “love in the afternoon.” Stephanie, of course, was onto them and interrupted one day. In a bit of a harrowing twist, Eric was forced to hide outside on the window ledge while Donna dealt with his suspicious ex!
Donna met her newest challenge in Stephanie’s bi-polar sister, Pam Douglas. Determined to scare the blonde off, Pam made Donna the victim of a series of pranks that began with locking her in a tanning booth and turning her hair and teeth green, and escalated to holding her at gunpoint with her Doberman, Tiny, by her side.
Donna couldn’t have been happier to marry Eric, the man of her dreams, but their happiness was marred by tragedy when her brother committed suicide in order to donate his heart to her sister Katie not long afterward.
At Storm’s memorial, Donna reconnected with her long lost son, Marcus Walton, whom she had given up as a teen after a high school dalliance with Justin Barber. She was intensely moved when Eric formally adopted her son and made him a Forrester.
Felicia paid Owen Knight, Donna’s assistant, to try and become between her father and the blonde. Donna resisted his attempt to get her into bed, but later kissed him.
After Eric suffered a heart attack and landed in hospital while in bed with Donna, the police found poison in her dresser drawer. Sure enough, she was being framed by Pam. She found this out during a particularly terrifying run-in with the deranged woman…
Off her bi-polar meds, Pam had poisoned Eric (just a teensy bit) in hopes of curbing his sexual appetite, so as to put Donna off of him. This all came out when Pam attacked Donna at the cabin and held her at gunpoint (again!). In a close call that makes us wonder how Donna could ever have anything to do with honey or use the word “bear” ever again, she narrowly escaped being eaten by one when Pam left her tied up in the remote location covered in the sticky substance!
Pam’s violent threats escalated and Stephanie worked to keep Donna and Eric apart. After Pam was revealed to have a brain tumor, which was purportedly responsible for her behavior, Donna and Honey Bear reconciled even as Thorne tried to derail it with a fake photo of his step-mother kissing Owen.
Donna forged a tentative truce with Pam, and even went on The Price Is Right with her, but the pranks weren’t over and done with as Steph’s sister couldn’t resist dousing Donna in honey when she modeled a Forrester showstopper.
Donna and Eric’s marriage ended when she blamed Stephanie for the death of her mother, Beth. Donna received 12.5% of Forrester shares in the divorce and upset many by selling them to Bill. Despite the years of animosity, Donna was shaken by Stephanie’s death and found herself in agreement with her old nemesis, Pam, who was taken aback at Eric deciding to date Taylor Hayes.
Though Eric went on to marry Quinn Fuller and Donna spent time away from Los Angeles, she popped up a few times to offer some nostalgia and temptation. Eric was never upset at seeing her. Donna eventually moved back and set up shop at the receptionist desk with Pam, who tried to enlist her in a scheme to win Eric back and send his wife packing.
When Eric and Quinn began having marital problems and he had trouble with erectile dysfunction, it was an encounter with Donna in the office that led him to realize that his situation wasn’t as dire as it seemed. A little honey on Donna’s finger was all it took to bring back that old magic feeling.
Eric began having an affair with Donna behind Quinn’s back. The pair shared loved up afternoons at the health club under the guise of playing pickleball, but — of course — that’s not really how Donna and her honey bear were getting their heart rates up. Eric repeatedly told Donna how happy she made him and that he didn’t want to stop seeing her.
