Riverdale star Robin Givens headed to B&B

The Bold and the Beautiful has cast Robin Givens for a several-episode stint alongside Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood).

Continuing its recent tradition of hiring more recognizable actors for guest-starring roles, The Bold and the Beautiful has tapped Riverdale actress Robin Givens for a three-episode arc.

EW reports Givens started taping last week as Steffy Forrester's (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) obstetrician, Dr. Phillips, and will first air on Thursday, February 15. And it would seem that Steffy found herself a really good doctor because we hear that Dr. Phillips graduated at the Head of the Class.
