Heather Tom is about to juggle more hats than a royal wedding. The Bold & The Beautiful star, best known for playing Katie Logan Spencer (aka the woman with more drama than a Kardashian Thanksgiving), is stepping behind the camera AND the writer’s desk for a history-making all-female episode of the long-running soap.

That’s right, people! Heather isn’t just acting—she’s directing AND writing. She’s basically turning into the Steven Spielberg of soap operas, except with way better hair.

35 Years of Soap Opera Majesty
Deadline reports that Heather’s milestone 35th anniversary on the show inspired this epic feat. And how did this all come about? Well, apparently, head writer and executive producer Brad Bell came up to her like:

👉 “Hey Heather, you’ve been acting, writing, and directing for years. Why not do all three at once? You know, just for fun?”

And Heather, instead of responding with the normal human reaction (“Are you trying to kill me?”), said, “Yeah, sure, sounds interesting!” Because clearly, she enjoys a challenge.

What’s This Episode About?
The episode, airing March 27th (mark your calendars and cancel all plans), will be a mother-daughter drama-fest, starring iconic ladies like:

👩 Rebecca Budig (Taylor) – Queen of dramatic sighs.
👩 Annika Noelle (Hope) – Could probably cry on command.
👩 Katherine Kelly Lang (Brooke) – Survived more love triangles than geometry class.
👩 Jennifer Gareis (Donna) – Brings the fabulous.
👩 Jacqueline MacInnes Wood (Steffy) – Head of the Steffy Forrester Fan Club (self-appointed).
👩 Heather Tom (Katie) – Obviously.

And if you’re wondering, “Where are the men?” Well, sweetie, they’ve been benched for this one. It’s the ladies’ time to shine, and honestly, they’ve earned it after decades of putting up with so much fictional nonsense.

A Personal Touch
Heather revealed that the storyline was personal for her, as she lost her mother last year. Cue all the tears. She wanted to pay tribute to her by weaving real-life emotion into the mother-daughter relationships in the episode.

💔 “I certainly wouldn’t be here without her—literally and figuratively,” Heather shared, making all of us reach for a tissue.

One Day. 45 Pages. No Pressure.
If you think your job is stressful, imagine filming 45 pages of dialogue IN A SINGLE DAY. That’s basically the soap opera equivalent of running a marathon while doing calculus.

And in case you were wondering—no, this isn’t some random “special” episode that gets ignored later. The drama will seamlessly flow into the existing storylines, proving once again that The Bold & The Beautiful knows how to keep things spicy.

All-Female Crew Because, Duh.
To keep things even more iconic, the behind-the-scenes team is also women-powered:

✔️ Female stage manager? Check.
✔️ Female assistant director? Check.
✔️ Female editors? Check.
✔️ Probably some strong coffee? DEFINITELY CHECK.

Heather’s no rookie to this whole directing thing—she’s already directed 38 episodes and written 11. But this time, she’s proving she can do literally everything short of teleporting onto our screens and reciting the script herself.

Final Thoughts?
If this episode doesn’t get a standing ovation, we riot.

The Bold & The Beautiful is making history, and Heather Tom is leading the charge like the soap opera superhero we never knew we needed. Get your popcorn, people—it’s gonna be legendary.
