Will Hope End Up With Carter, Liam, or Thomas on The Bold and the Beautiful?
Romance triangles have always been at the core of The Bold and the Beautiful, but this time around, Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) isn’t just dealing with a triangle—it’s a full quadrangle that could send shockwaves through the canvas of the show. Hope is at the center of a complicated web of emotions, with three very different men vying for her affection: Carter Walton, Liam Spencer, and Thomas Forrester. Each man offers something unique, and the decision she makes will change not only her life but also the lives of nearly everyone around her.
At this moment, Hope is officially engaged to Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor). On paper, Carter looks like the perfect choice. He’s stable, dependable, and devoted—qualities Hope has longed for after enduring years of heartbreak and emotional chaos. Carter’s proposal seemed to promise her a fresh beginning, one built on trust and reliability. Yet, even with his ring on her finger, Hope doesn’t appear fully committed. Instead of planning her wedding, her heart seems to be drifting in another direction.
That other direction points straight back to her ex-husband, Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton). Liam and Hope’s story has been one of The Bold and the Beautiful’s most enduring romances, marked by countless ups and downs, breakups and reunions. No matter how many times they’ve walked away from each other, somehow, they’ve always managed to circle back. Recently, a shocking health scare brought them close once again. Believing he had a brain tumor, Liam leaned on Hope for comfort, and she was right there at his side, offering unconditional love and support. Even after it turned out to be a misdiagnosis, the renewed closeness between them didn’t fade—it grew stronger.
Now fans can’t help but wonder: did Liam’s brush with what he thought might be mortality awaken in him the realization that Hope is truly the love of his life? If Liam chooses to fight for her again, Carter may find himself in a losing battle, no matter how much he tries to hold on.
But the storm doesn’t end there—because Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) is about to return, and his presence always shakes things up. Thomas has never stopped carrying a torch for Hope. Their relationship was passionate and complicated, but ultimately Hope wasn’t ready to commit to him. She rejected his proposals multiple times, leading him to walk away. His move to France and sudden engagement to Paris Buckingham (Diamond White) shocked everyone, making it seem like he had finally closed the door on Hope.
Now that Thomas is coming back, the big question looms: what does he truly want? If his engagement to Paris still stands, things could quickly get messy. But if he arrives determined to reignite things with Hope, then Carter and Liam both may find themselves facing unexpected competition.
This leaves Hope at a heartbreaking crossroads. Carter gives her the chance at stability, loyalty, and a safe, fresh chapter. Liam represents history, a love story written over many years, and a passion that refuses to die. Thomas, meanwhile, brings fire, intensity, and the possibility of reviving something that always felt unfinished. Each man symbolizes a different path, and whichever direction Hope takes, the fallout will be huge.
If Hope chooses Carter, she may gain security but risks breaking both Liam’s and Thomas’s hearts. If she reunites with Liam, she could find herself in familiar territory, but it may devastate Carter and stir up more drama with Steffy. And if she dares to take another chance on Thomas, she’ll not only shock everyone but also potentially blow up his engagement to Paris and spark chaos within the Forrester family.
No matter what happens, one thing is certain—there’s no way for everyone to walk away unscathed. Hearts will be shattered, alliances will shift, and families could be torn apart. Viewers should brace themselves for one of the most emotional, high-stakes storylines the soap has tackled in a long time.
So the question remains: Who will Hope Logan give her heart to in the end? Carter, the man who offers stability? Liam, the one who represents a deep, complicated history? Or Thomas, the passionate wildcard whose love has never really disappeared? However this plays out, fans of The Bold and the Beautiful are in for a whirlwind ride full of twists, heartbreak, and shocking revelations.
