Rocco Carner is a fictional character from the American soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful, portrayed by Bryan Genesse. The character first appeared from 1987 to 1989, returned on March 12, 2009.
In 1987, a teenaged Katie Logan (then played by Nancy Sloan; now Heather Tom), who has self-esteem issues due to her acne problems, is set up on a date with Rocco by her sister Donna (then Carrie Mitchum; now Jennifer Gareis). Katie developes feelings for Rocco, however Rocco is actually more interested in Donna. Katie becomes furious with Donna after witnessing a kiss between her and Rocco, who Katie perceives to be her boyfriend. Despite this, Katie continues to date Rocco, oblivious to the fact that Rocco is attracted to Donna and not her. When Katie finds a ring in Rocco's pocket, she mistakenly believes it is for her, but is devastated when he tells her he bought it for Donna (who later rejects his proposal).
In 2009, Rocco returns to Los Angeles after a lot of years of the work in Forrester International. Now, he works at Forrester Creations.
