Stepping into the shoes of a beloved character is never easy, especially when that character has a deep-rooted history in one of the most popular soap operas on television. Rebecca Budig, a seasoned daytime star, recently faced this challenge when she was cast as Taylor Hayes on The Bold and the Beautiful. Taking over a role that has been synonymous with soap icon Hunter Tylo for decades, Budig knew she was in for a daunting task. But with her experience and a warm welcome from the cast and crew, she’s ready to make Taylor her own.
When Rebecca Budig received the call to take on the role of Taylor Hayes, she knew she was stepping into a legacy. Taylor, who first appeared on the show in 1990, has been a central figure in countless storylines, primarily revolving around her tumultuous relationship with Ridge Forrester. Hunter Tylo’s portrayal of Taylor set a high standard, and Budig didn’t shy away from admitting the pressure she felt.
“It was a little intimidating, knowing how important Taylor is to the history of the show,” Budig revealed in an interview.
