For 25 years, Ronn Moss was a mainstay on "The Bold and the Beautiful" as the playboy fashion designer Ridge Forrester, who captured the audience's hearts as a man who was always torn between two women. When Moss chose to leave the show, he explained that there were several factors involved.
Moss told Entertainment Weekly, "I've been doing this for 25 years [...] I felt that I needed to go in this new direction to give myself the chance to do all the creative things that I haven't had a chance to do in 25 years, because I've dedicated so much of my life to this." He also admitted that "[money was] a piece of the whole thing."
Since leaving "The Bold and the Beautiful," Moss has appeared in other soap operas, showing up on "General Hospital" as himself(!), AKA the lead singer of his band Player, and also on the digital soap "The Bay" from 2010-2020. In 2021, Moss released a cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah," which made it to the top of the charts in Belgium.
