B&B SPOILERS: WILL HOPE LOGAN MAKE THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF HER LIFE CHOOSING LIAM OVER CARTER?
TL;DR: On The Bold and the Beautiful, Hope Logan is engaged to Carter Walton but torn about ex-husband Liam Spencer who wants her back, with their daughter Beth’s father-daughter dance becoming the emotional trigger that may end Hope’s engagement.
Hold onto your remote controls, soap fans, because Hope Logan is about to throw away the best thing that’s ever happened to her!
And I’m FURIOUS about it!
What’s Happening with Hope Logan Right Now?
Hope Logan is officially engaged to Carter Walton as of September 30, 2025’s episode, but she’s experiencing massive internal conflict because her ex-husband Liam Spencer is actively campaigning to win her back. The waffler extraordinaire is using their daughter Beth as an emotional weapon — they’re preparing for a father-daughter dance that’s got Hope questioning EVERYTHING. Meanwhile, Carter was last seen at a Forrester showroom event with Eric, Ridge, Brooke, and newcomer Daphne Rose (more on her suspicious timing later!).
Here’s the thing that’s driving me absolutely BONKERS: Hope has spent THIRTEEN YEARS stuck in the same toxic cycle with Liam. THREE marriages to Hope. THREE marriages to Steffy Forrester. The man literally cannot make a decision and stick with it when both women are available!
Does Liam Spencer Ever Actually Choose Hope?
No, Liam Spencer has never definitively chosen Hope Logan when Steffy Forrester was an available option — he’s been married to each woman three times since 2011!
Let me break down this pathological pattern for those keeping score at home. Liam kissed Steffy ON HIS WEDDING DAY to Hope in Italy back in 2012. He jumped into a relationship with Ivy Forrester the SECOND Hope left town after her miscarriage. The man slept with Steffy while drunk when he thought Hope was with Thomas. This isn’t love — it’s a psychological inability to commit!
And now? NOW he’s using that brain tumor storyline as an emotional reset button. Classic soap opera manipulation! Make the character face mortality so viewers forget all his terrible behavior. Well, I haven’t forgotten, and neither should Hope!
Is Carter Walton Actually Better for Hope?
YES, Carter Walton is demonstrably better for Hope Logan — he’s the COO of Forrester Creations, wants marriage and family, and makes decisive choices rather than waffling between women!
Look at the FACTS. Carter has his flaws — that Quinn Fuller affair was a disaster, and leaving Paris Buckingham at the altar was cruel. But here’s the crucial difference: Carter makes definitive choices. He chose Quinn. He chose to leave Paris. He chose to pursue Hope. When Carter screws up, it’s from passionate decisions, not from being a perpetual ping-pong ball!
Their relationship grew from mutual support during Forrester’s hostile takeover crisis. Adult foundation. Professional respect. Shared goals. Not teenage infatuation and gondola-trapping drama!
Will Hope Actually Choose Liam Over Carter?
Unfortunately, yes — spoilers strongly indicate Hope Logan will end her engagement to Carter Walton and reunite with Liam Spencer after attending the father-daughter dance with him and Beth.
Ugh.
I hate being right about this! The spoilers tell us Hope will attend that manipulative father-daughter dance. She’ll have an emotional conversation with mama Brooke, complete with nostalgic flashbacks (because nothing says “move forward” like looking backward, right?). Meanwhile, Carter will be expressing excitement about their wedding while Daphne Rose conveniently develops feelings for him.
See what’s happening here? The writers are literally setting up Carter’s rebound BEFORE Hope even dumps him! Daphne is the narrative safety net so Carter doesn’t end up in romantic limbo after Hope inevitably runs back to her toxic ex.
What’s Next for Hope, Liam, and Carter?
Given Hope’s history and the show’s reliance on the Hope-Liam-Steffy triangle, don’t be surprised if she’s back with Liam by Halloween and he’s kissing Steffy by Christmas. This likely leads to Carter and Daphne Rose becoming the new stable couple while Hope gets sucked back into eternal chaos. Could this mean Hope finally learns her lesson after the inevitable next betrayal? Doubtful — we’ve been watching this pattern since 2010!
The most INFURIATING part? Hope literally gave her mother advice about not going back to Ridge and repeating the same patterns. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. Yet here we are!
Carter represents growth. Stability. A partner who actually KNOWS WHAT HE WANTS. But no, let’s go back to the guy who’s spent over a decade unable to choose between two women. Let’s use our innocent daughter as an emotional pawn. Let’s ignore thirteen years of evidence that this NEVER WORKS.
You know what breaks my heart? Hope has the potential for genuine character evolution here. Choosing Carter would mean choosing herself, choosing growth, choosing to break free from the toxic cycle that’s defined her entire adult life.
But soap operas gonna soap opera.
Mark my words: by Valentine’s Day, Hope will be crying about Liam’s latest betrayal while Carter is happily planning a future with Daphne. And we’ll all be screaming at our TVs wondering why Hope never learns.
The father-daughter dance isn’t sweet — it’s emotional warfare. Beth saying she wants her parents together isn’t cute — it’s manipulation. And Liam’s sudden desire for family reunion isn’t romantic — it’s just the latest round in his eternal game of relationship ping-pong.
Hope Logan, if you’re listening (and I know you’re not because you’re fictional but STILL): RUN. Run far away from Liam Spencer and his chronic indecision. Carter Walton is RIGHT THERE offering you everything you claim to want!
But she won’t listen. They never do.
