The Bold and the Beautiful: Will Taylor die?

Last time Taylor passed out was when she saw Ridge and Brooke kissing and her heart couldn't take it. After Brooke had already left, Ridge saw Taylor unconscious, and ran to her aid.

 

Taylor tells Ridge about her situation, her deadly heart condition. Taylor asks Ridge not to tell Steffy. Ridge agrees to it only on the condition that Taylor agrees to go to the doctor.

This doctor is an old acquaintance, Grace Buckingham, who has surprising news. Taylor doesn't have heart failure. Taylor suffers from a broken heart! The official name of this disease is Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. And at worst, you can die from it.

 

Does this mean that in order to heal, Taylor needs to have Ridge to herself? Is marriage to Ridge the only possible cure for Taylor's illness? Is this the reason why Brooke and Ridge haven't gotten married this time?

Ridge finds a naturopathic healer for Taylor. Ridge is intensely involved in Taylor's treatment, and at one point they sit intimately on each other's laps. Brooke (of course) sees this, and guess does she like it?

 

This plot immediately lost all interest when it was revealed that Taylor is not dying. So if it's all about Brooke and Taylor's ancient fight over Ridge, then no thanks.
