It's been only a few months since former Save By the Bell star Mario Lopez (Christian Ramirez) joined the cast of The Bold and the Beautiful. However, the heartthrob's on-screen time has been non-existent and the show has now confirmed that the actor has been let go.
According to a show spokesperson, Lopez and B&B reached a mutual decision to part ways. The agreement will allow Lopez to pursue other projects. The actor is already rumored to be up for a spot on the next round of ABC's Dancing With the Stars.
Lopez debuted on The Bold and the Beautiful on March 20th. The actor has already taped his final on-screen appearance, but a final airdate was not made available by the show. The final appearance is, however, expected to air mid-July.
Meanwhile, though rumored to be on his way out, Soap Central has learned that Lorenzo Lamas (Hector Ramirez) will be remaining on B&B. The actor, who plays Lopez's on-screen brother, will be featured in a major storyline this summer.
