Sheila then moved to Death Valley and became a waitress. It was there she met Amber Moore. Amber convinced Sheila to go home and fight for her baby. To prove that Sheila was an unfit mother, James divorced Maggie {seen here} and seduced Sheila into agreeing to marry him. He believed that he could get her into a situation where she would leave the baby home alone, thereby proving she was unfit. The plan failed and James was forced to go through with marrying Sheila. Sheila later found out about the plan and tried to commit suicide. After surviving, James later fell in love with Sheila and wanted to stay married to her. {some info from soapcentral.com}

Mary's father, James fell in love with Stephanie. To keep Stephanie away from her husband, Shelia threatened to kill Stephanie's grandson. She was jailed because of the threat. After breaking out of jail, Shelia kidnapped Mary and left town with her. Mary was not the first child Shelia has kidnapped...she previously took Eric Forrester and also Scotty Grainger. She left James with only a note not to look for her and Mary. Pictured here with her father, James and mother, Shelia. {info from soapcentral.com, photo on the right courtesy Anki's B&B Page}

Jon and Brett Wirta

Eric Forrester III

1999-present

Eric is the biological son of Becky {right}. Amber {left} was grieving the loss of her stillborn son. Amber's mother, Tawny, pushed the baby on Amber. Becky was going to give the baby up for adoption and Amber took the baby back to LA as her own child and soon began to think of him as her own. Eric was raised by Amber his first year and passed off as her and Rick's son. When the truth was found out, Becky took him back and she and Amber began to raise him on their own. The Forresters continued to see the child as part of the family and vowed to do anything they could for him, especially after Becky's death. {some info from Gabriel}

Jon {L} and Brett {R} celebrated their first birthday on the set of B&B with on screen adoptive mom Adrienne {Amber} holding Jon, real-life mom and on screen birth mom ? {Becky} holding Brett.

Pick your parents: This poor kid has more parents than he knows what to do with. Left Becky and CJ Garrison. Right Rick and Amber Forrester.

Jon and Brett and their mom, Linda. Their mom started looking for acting opportunities for them before they were even born, after finding out that a friend of a friend had twins working on GH. At age two weeks, she took them to an agency and when they were just under four weeks old, they were booked to do a fantasy scene with Amber dreaming about the birth of her baby. They never auditioned. {photo and info from CBS.com}

Eric has enough parents for every child. This is his third "father," but he is his only biological father. Deacon and Eric, or as Deacon calls him, "Little D".

Eric finally has a stable home again with his parents of choice, Rick and Amber. Only time will tell if they stay a family or not.

Poor Little Eric or Little D,depending on which parents you talk to. He probably has no idea who he is supposed to call mom or dad. Good thing it's a soap, or this little boy would need some serious mental help. His birth mom is dead and his adoptive mother can't decide who she wants to be with his adoptive father Rick {L} or his birth father Deacon {R}.

Whenever the character of Eric is aged or recast for whatever reason, according to the boys' mom, they will no longer act. It was just something to do when they were younger. They have been in every soap magazine on the market. Eric Forrester has been one popular little boy, making Jon and Brett well known in the soap opera world. {photos courtesy huntingtaylor.com}
