Bold & Beautiful’s Krista Allen Discloses a Personal Tragedy as She Works Her Way Back to Normal

The Bold & Beautiful star hasn’t been replying to messages and wanted to explain why.

When the lovely Krista Allen (Taylor) isn’t acting like herself (at least on social media), her Bold & Beautiful followers not only notice but also grow concerned. In this case, the worry turned out to be warranted.

After joining the Bold & Beautiful as a recast Taylor Hayes in 2021, Allen and her ready wit became an instant hit with fans both onscreen and off. Though not everyone (including Allen) was a fan of that wig, the soap vet’s posts on Twitter quickly garnered her a legion of admirers — especially when she poked fun at her alter-ego’s dreadful hairpiece.

But Allen isn’t just funny online, she’s honest and regularly interacts with her followers on Twitter, which has endeared her to them all the more.

So, it’s not surprising that her absence would be noticed and her witty banter missed. Realizing this, Allen returned to social media to check in with her followers and to let them know what was going on with her given she hadn’t tweeted since mid-March and hadn’t been responding on social for much longer than that.

The star began, “Just wanted to say hi! I miss y’all and haven’t checked my tweets in many weeks.” She promised, “I will soon.”

She then revealed the reason behind her absence, “Had a personal tragedy and been dealing with that. Trying to get back to normal now.”

Even in the face of such a heartbreaking admission, Allen managed a quip and qualified her statement with, “Well, ‘normal’ for me. (Never actually normal! 😂).”

We’re going to take her ability to crack a joke as a hopeful sign that she’s doing okay.

Finally, the star signed off with a message to her fans and followers: “Love you and sending belly laughs and smiles.”

Just wanted to say Hi!
I miss y’all and haven’t checked my tweets in many weeks.
I will soon.
Had a personal tragedy and been dealing with that. Trying to get back to normal now.
Well, “normal” for me.
(Never actually normal! 😂)
Love you and sending belly laughs and smiles.

SOAPS staff send Allen love, strength, and positive vibes as she continues to deal with this difficult situation.

<p>Ted King (Jack), Tanner Novlan (John ‘Finn’), and Naomi Matsuda (Li) were on hand to mark <em>Bold & Beautiful’s</em> 36th anniversary and took time out to pose for a “family” photo!</p>

<p>Naomi Matsuda (Li), Ken Hanes (Mike), and Kimberlin Brown (Sheila) were no doubt reliving the fun they had filming their insane scenes together.</p>

<p>As we look at this pic of Matsuda with the impressive statues at the <em>Bold & Beautiful</em> party, we can’t help but think that now that we know Bill really isn’t all that into Sheila, perhaps he and Li will finally get their chance once the she-devil is back behind bars.</p>

<p>How adorable are John McCook (Eric) and wife Laurette Spang-McCook? By the way, they’ve got <em>Bold & Beautiful</em> beat when it comes to anniversaries — 43 years together!</p>

<p>Kimberlin Brown continues to bring <em>Bold & Beautiful’s</em> best villain vibes as the notorious Sheila and was on hand to mark the show’s anniversary. Party on!</p>

<p>It’s safe to say you’d never see Sheila cozied up to the Logan girls on <em>Bold & Beautiful</em>, but Kimberlin Brown can definitely hang as seen here with Katherine Kelly Lang (Brooke), Heather Tom (Katie), and Jennifer Gareis (Donna)!</p>

<p>Lang and Gareis broke out their smokin’ hot LBD’s for the <em>Bold & Beautiful</em> party. Fiyah!</p>

<p>Lang laughed out loud as she posed ‘wearing’ the Forrester Original statue at the bash.</p>

<p>Lang posed with newcomer Johsua Hoffman, who is set to join <em>Bold & Beautiful</em> playing her onscreen son, RJ.</p>

<p>Of course, Li will never befriend Sheila onscreen, but Matsuda and Brown appear to have had some fun posing defiantly amid the lit up statues at the <em>Bold & Beautiful</em> anniversary party.</p>

<p>‘RJ’ and ‘Hope’ were all smiles as Hoffman posed with Annika Noelle (Hope) at the anniversary celebration. Can’t wait to see them interacting onscreen as sibs!</p>

<p><em>Bold & Beautiful</em> appears to have done some great casting — Hoffman really looks the part of Brooke and Ridge’s son. Nice to see him at the party with his new castmates!</p>

<p>McCook posed with his TV wife, Gareis, at the party. Donna and Eric’s latest reunion seems to be going well onscreen thus far…how long can they go without drama?!</p>

<p>Gareis, Tom, and Lang helped celebrate the 36-year anniversary of the show on which they star as the beautiful Logan girls.</p>

<p><em>Bold & Beautiful’s</em> Hollis W. Chambers (who just happens to play a character named Paul ‘Hollis’ Hollister onscreen) buddied up with Head Writer and Executive Producer Bradley Bell at the shindig.</p>

<p>Henry Joseph Samiri (Douglas) cut a dashing — and utterly adorable —figure in his debonair leather jacket at <em>Bold & Beautiful’s</em> anniversary gathering.</p>

<p>Don Diamont (Bill), Lang, and Lawrence Saint-Victor (Carter) hung out by the statues for a sweet candid while at the party.</p>

<p>Diamont, McCook, and Bell shouldered in for a snapshot by the impressive 36th anniversary statue as they helped mark the special occasion.</p>

<p>This is for the “Still” fans! Diamont and MacInnes Wood posed together with ear-to-ear grins at the bash.</p>

<p>Darin Brooks (Wyatt) shows his approval at the impressive 36 years <em>Bold & Beautiful</em> has been gracing our screens five days a week. Congratulations!</p>

<p>Brooks and Diamont paused the party for a photo to commemorate their many years of playing father and son, Bill and Wyatt.</p>

<p>Justin Barber has been missed onscreen, having only popped up here and there while working with the Forresters, so it was amazing to see Aaron D. Spears partying it up with his <em>Bold & Beautiful</em> family.</p>

<p>Noelle, Scott Clifton (Liam), and Samiri posed together at the party as a nod to the cute little fam they are on the soap.</p>

<p>Cassandra Creech, who plays Dr. Grace Buckingham, joined the cast and crew to celebrate the show’s longevity. We hope to see her on again soon.</p>

<p>Or fingers, actually. Noelle and Saint-Victor indicate ’36’ as they posed for this shot. You gotta’ love it!</p>

<p>There may be a few faces missing but the cast that was on hand to celebrate <em>Bold & Beautiful’s</em> fabulous 36 years on the air were a happy bunch who got together for a wonderful group shot to commemorate the special event. Happy Anniversary!</p>
