I don't even like her that much. She isn't better than Steffy and Hope but they need to keep her around. So many stories to tell. First because she has true Forrester blood and she had some great scenes with her uncle Eric. But her character has an eventful past too.

I'd like her to confront Steffy about her past for instance. I don't want Steffy and Ivy fighting over Liam but their rivalry in general was fun to watch. The drama with Quinn and the green card wedding was probably the only interesting angst Leffy had for me. The tensions following Aly's death was a good storyline. Then they had all those accidents, Ivy even filled a restraining order (Steffy broke it twice). Can Ivy pull a Xander and pay Steffy's husband a little visit at his office? Not suggesting a Ivy/Finn pairing but she has the power to torment Steffy a little. Finn needs to know that Sugar wasn't her only "accident". Steffy also shot Sheila, hit Aly, electrocuted and caused Ivy to fall down the stairs. None of these were intentional but her past shouldn't be swept under the rug. If Steffy isn't nice to her cousin, I want Ivy to fight back.

It's a bold opportunity for Liam to show he is trying to change. Still unclear if they brought Ivy back to redeem Liam or to trash him even more. If the plan is Livy then Liam has to be clear he is done with Steffy (and Hope). Who wants to see Ivy abused/used as a 3rd choice and dumped the minute Steffy wants him back? Not me. Livy will be great only if he slams the door on Steffy's face when she announces him her marriage is over. And if Liam only wants Steffy then he shouldn't string Ivy along. Next time Ivy tries to kiss him, he needs to make it clear it's not gonna happen and tell her to find a man who only loves her. Either they are serious about Liam's "redemption" or they are not. What I've seen last week wasn't convincing. Liam sitting at the table between the 2 cousins was gross.

A Ivy/Thomas/Hope business story would be another interesting idea. Don't get me wrong I don't want Thomas to waffle (nor Hope to chase after him). His biggest strength is his unconditional love for Hope, it should stay that way when he comes back. But I'm not against a little flirt at the office if Hope is still hesitating. Maybe this is exactly what Hope needs to realize she doesn't want to lose him. AB kind of hinted Hope and Ivy might butt heads ; if it happens I think it'll be business related. Ivy was a successful jewerly designer and she had a thing for Thomas back then, I doubt she and Hope will get along if they all work together.

I'd like to hear about Jessica, her half-sister. Jessica was the daughter of John Forrester (Eric's brother, Ivy's father) with Maggie (Sheila's rival for James in the 1990s). This character was a true Forrester and hasn't been mentionned since she left ; if they won't bring her back, at least acknowledge her existence.

Well, I have no idea if Ivy will actually stick around, but SO FAR, her 2 appearances did Liam no favor whatsoever given that he was acting like a complete idiot allowing a very rude, married Steffy to childishly interrupt Livy..he acted like a jealous married Steffy was so cute for being so rude. If he truly had been doing "soul searching", he would've immediately called a married Steffy out that it's none of her damn business who he sees/dates, but sadly he did the opposite.

I don't like Ivy but she's better than the vile, mean girl Steffy. And given that Hope had her year long wild ride with the bad boy....I'm okay with Liam having a little fun with Ivy. But I'm a hard no on the show reviving the dead horse Leffy..they've always been disgusting to me.

Shown on screen, Steffy blackmailed Bill. Yet, she told Ivy (and Liam too) that “blackmail is a crime”. Per Steffy’s own words, she IS a criminal cuz she has blackmailed.
