It was a cruel battle that saw a lot of abusive behaviors and explosive big secrets implode on them both, but the process of getting divorced appears to have officially come to an end for Caroline (Linsey Godfrey) and Rick (Jacob Young) on The Bold and the Beautiful.

Thomas and Caroline Begin Growing Closer

After calling it quits and moving on with new relationships with Maya (Karla Mosley) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), the two had a hard path towards reconciliation-but it has finally been achieved and they are ready to move on as friends-especially now that the divorce appears to have been legally granted.

"It's Rick. He forwarded a message from his attorney," Caroline says to Ridge in a preview clip for the Tuesday, August 4 episode.

However, even though that chapter of her life is officially closed now, things are still not going to be easy for Caroline now that Thomas (Pierson Fode) has come back to town and appears to be at war with his father over not only his ability to join the new Forrester Design team, but potentially her as well.

After Ridge ripped up a sketch of a dress Thomas created, his son sought Caroline out for venting, stopping by the apartment she and Ridge are sharing to talk, something Caroline explains to Ridge after he too arrives home.

"You liked the design, I ripped it up. So he needed someone to tell him how awful I am," Ridge says to Caroline in the clip.

"Well, I didn't so that," she assures him.

The Bold and the Beautiful airs Monday-Friday at 1:30 p.m. on CBS.
