Is Hope Logan Playing Carter? Fans Call Out Bold and the Beautiful Love Triangle Drama
In the latest twists on The Bold and the Beautiful, Hope Logan shocked Carter Walton by professing her love for him—only days after telling Liam Spencer she wanted a future with him. Now fans are calling foul, accusing Hope of playing games with both men.
Hope’s Mixed Messages Leave Carter Confused
During a recent episode, Hope dropped by Carter’s loft after calling him unexpectedly. Carter had been bracing himself for heartbreak after overhearing Hope tell Liam that he was her future. So, when she showed up saying she wanted to be with him, Carter was understandably baffled.
Hope insisted Carter misunderstood the conversation he heard at Brooke’s house. She claimed she was comforting Liam because he’s dying, not declaring romantic intentions. Then, she told Carter that Liam has a brain tumor and that the news made her realize she didn’t want to waste any more time apart from the man she truly loves—Carter.
Carter, overwhelmed with emotion, promised to support her and be her rock. But many fans aren’t buying the sudden turnaround.
Is Hope Gaslighting Carter?
Viewers across social media are questioning Hope’s motives. Just recently, she seemed ready to reconcile with Liam—even before knowing about his diagnosis. She told her father, Deacon, that her life started to unravel after divorcing Liam, suggesting a reunion had already been on her mind.
Critics believe Hope may be using Carter as a safety net now that Liam is terminally ill. While she’s professing love to Carter now, it’s hard to ignore the fact that she did the same to Liam shortly before.
Some speculate this reunion with Carter feels rushed and forced. Others think Hope is simply acting out of guilt or confusion following Liam’s health crisis. One thing’s clear: Carter seems like the backup plan.
Liam’s Illness: A Catalyst or a Convenient Excuse?
Liam, ever the noble ex, encouraged Hope to move on with someone like Carter, someone who could be there for her when he no longer can. But deep down, it’s evident that Liam still has feelings for Hope—and she may still return those feelings.
Hope’s quick pivot from Liam to Carter is raising red flags. Is she genuinely choosing Carter, or is she temporarily settling because she believes Liam’s days are numbered?
Recent developments hint that Liam might actually survive. Dr. Grace Buckingham introduced a risky new treatment protocol, and while the side effects may be severe, there’s a chance Liam could make a full recovery. If that happens, will Hope drop Carter like a hot potato?
Is Carter Destined for Another Heartbreak?
Historically, Carter has never had a lasting romance on B&B, and fans fear this storyline will be no different. Even actor Lawrence Saint-Victor, who portrays Carter, now writes scripts for the show. Some wonder if he’s writing his own heartbreak yet again.
As the story unfolds, it’s likely Carter will confide in Daphne, who has repeatedly warned him that Hope will only break his heart. Yet, Carter seems determined to trust Hope, despite all signs pointing to trouble.
Hope and Carter haven’t resolved their past issues, and when Carter questioned her about Liam, she dodged accountability and claimed he misunderstood. That, many say, is classic gaslighting.
What’s Next for Hope, Liam, and Carter?
With a possible recovery on the horizon for Liam, Hope’s true intentions may soon be revealed. If Liam lives, Carter’s days with Hope could be numbered. Many fans believe this storyline mirrors the recent Eric Forrester cancer arc, suggesting a predictable outcome.
Will Hope stay with Carter out of love—or obligation? And when Liam recovers, will she run back to him and leave Carter devastated?
