Brief Character History
Jackie is Nick's mother, and one of Massimo's former lovers from his post-Stephanie days. Jackie believed that Massimo didn't want her or their son, so pretended for years that Nick belonged to her husband, Frank. After Nick's accident, Jackie ended up in Los Angeles, and although she got involved with Eric, it wasn't long before she ended up back with Massimo. The two married, but Jackie couldn't forget Eric, or get her mind off Deacon, the new man in her life. When she realized Nick was in love with Brooke, she was overjoyed that Brooke seemed to be carrying Nick's baby. When she learned that there was problems with the paternity test, she convinced Deacon to do another test. In their wait, she got extremely drunk, and realized that Deacon had taken advantage of her state. Luckily, the paternity test turned out the way she wanted and Nick was the father, but Massimo became convinced she cheated on him, and was determined to catch her.
After Massimo kicked Jackie out when her withholding the truth about the paternity snafu with Brooke's baby (which created an estrangement between Ridge and Massimo), she spent much of her time with Deacon. The two became lovers again, and learned that they had a great deal in common. Just as they were beginning to prepare for a future together after Jackie signed divorce papers, Massimo shocked her by telling her he wanted her back. When Nick, who hadn't spoken to Jackie since the paternity snafu, threw his hat in Massimo's corner as well, Jackie told Deacon goodbye and moved back in with Massimo who, since he never filed the papers, was still her legal husband. Deacon left town shortly after.
Massimo and Jackie were unable to make their marriage work, and finally divorced. Jackie began seeing Eric again, and became convinced that he was about to propose marriage to her. She was humiliated when she found out that he had married Brooke, and it took a lot of groveling on his part to get her to forgive him after he and Brooke divorced. She and Eric were finally ready to move on with their lives when Felicia asked her parents to remarry as her dying wish, and after discussing it, both Jackie and Eric agreed that it was the right thing to do for Felicia, and she agreed to wait for him.
Jackie couldn't stay away from Eric, though, and she couldn't stay away from Stephanie. She and Stephanie got into an argument at the Forrester mansion, and when Stephanie pushed Jackie, who had refused to leave, away, Jackie went backwards over the bannister. When Donna came forward, admitting that she had seen Stephanie and Jackie fight, Nick and Jackie used that to take control of Forrester Creations.
