Let's make this birthday one to remember.

45 years old (Born on August 22, 1979)

Happy Birthday, Jennifer Finnigan! From your unforgettable days as Bridget Forrester on "The Bold and the Beautiful," where you navigated soap opera drama with grace (and somehow survived endless family scandals), to captivating audiences in "Close to Home"—you've always kept us glued to our screens. Seriously, how do you manage courtroom intensity AND perfect hair simultaneously?

Here's wishing a fantastic birthday filled with laughter—and hopefully fewer plot twists than your characters endure! May this year bring even more success, joy, and roles that don't require quite so many emotional breakdowns or dramatic pauses. Cheers from all of us who adore watching every brilliant scene you're in!
