With Christmas and New Year’s Eve right around the corner, characters on The Bold and the Beautiful will have plenty of holiday drama. But they are focusing as much on romance as corporate drama. And as existing spoilers suggest, relationship and workplace conflicts will collide once again in Los Angeles.
According to Stephanie Sloane at the Swooon entertainment site, three couples will take the spotlight in December as the characters get ready for 2026.
Liam and Hope get married amidst corporate chaos on The Bold and the Beautiful
One is obvious, as Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) prepare to get married for the third time on the show next week. Also according to Swooon, “Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) and Katie Logan (Heather Tom) start their life together again as a family.” Also, “Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) and Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) get reacquainted.”

A promo video by The Bold and the Beautiful showrunners, which you can see below, shows the families getting ready for the wedding. There is a clip of the Logan ladies, sans Bridget (Ashley Jones), helping Hope get ready. The clip shows Bill in a tux, no doubt with Katie as his date.
The wedding takes place while there is more management tension than normal going on inside the walls of Forrester Creations. The promo shows Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Eric (John McCook) having another argument as Ridge tries to force Eric into retirement, with Daphne and Carter witnessing it.
While that tension is boiling on The Bold and the Beautiful, Bill is trying to convince Katie to leave Forrester and join him at Spencer Publications. Bill feels that Ridge is putting Katie on the backburner in the aftermath of the publicity problems caused by Luna’s death, and that Katie is being taken for granted. Ridge doesn’t like that Katie and Bill are back together, and he doesn’t like Bill, period, so that could cause fireworks at the wedding.
Meanwhile, Daphne stepped up in Eric’s defense and argued with Ridge over what he was doing to Eric, suggesting she will get further caught up in the Forrester Creations intrigue as well.
As the wedding approaches, it may not be easy for Carter. While Carter ponders what could have been with his ex-fiancee, Daphne could try to distract him and remind him of what they could have together.
And by the end of the year, Carter could be on the road to finally having a satisfying relationship and maybe proposing to another woman on the canvas. Especially if Hope and Liam actually get married and don’t run into any hurdles, which would be unexpected. If Hope and Liam can actually find lasting happiness with each other, then there is potential “hope” for Forrester’s lovelorn lawyer with the perfume expert and songstress.
