This week on The Bold and the Beautiful, explosive drama unravels as Carter Walton’s ambitious plan backfires, leaving him to face devastating consequences. His downfall doesn’t just cost him his career—it also

puts his relationship with Hope Logan in jeopardy.

Carter’s Scheme Crumbles

Carter was on the verge of achieving a monumental power grab. After securing the necessary signatures for his scheme, he and Hope anticipated taking over Forrester Creations, with Carter as the new CEO. Hope was eager to see Steffy lose her authority, ready to revel in the triumph as the tables turned. However, their victory celebration was cut short when Brooke Logan discovered their plan and rushed to expose the truth.

In a dramatic confrontation, Brooke ran to Ridge Forrester and revealed everything. Despite the personal cost of betraying her daughter, Brooke couldn’t stand by and allow such a betrayal of the Forrester family. Her confession set off a chain reaction, leading to Carter’s ultimate downfall.

Ridge Confronts Carter

Next week, Ridge confronts Carter with the truth about his scheme. The revelation leaves Carter stunned—he hadn’t anticipated that Brooke would betray Hope and side with Ridge. Ridge makes it clear that Carter has lost his trust forever, and with that, his career at Forrester Creations is effectively over.

This devastating blow leaves Carter reeling. Everything he worked so hard for has been ripped away in an instant. Without Ridge’s trust and with the Forrester family against him, Carter is left with nothing.

Hope Turns on Carter

As Carter’s world crumbles, Hope reevaluates her relationship with him. Initially, she had supported Carter’s bold moves, believing it was a way to revive her Hope for the Future brand and get back at Steffy. However, with the plan exposed and Carter fired, Hope is deeply disappointed in him.

Adding insult to injury, Hope reveals the harsh truth: she only used Carter as a means to an end. Her involvement in his scheme wasn’t born out of love, but rather her desire to secure her position at Forrester Creations and undermine Steffy’s authority. Now that Carter has lost his power and is no longer useful to her, Hope decides to end their relationship.

A Shocking Rejection

In a cold and calculated move, Hope dumps Carter, leaving him devastated. But that’s not all—Hope shifts her attention elsewhere. Rumors suggest she may set her sights on Finn, reigniting old feelings. With Carter now powerless and out of the picture, Hope sees no reason to continue their partnership, either romantically or professionally.

Fallout for Carter and Hope

Carter’s failure and subsequent firing mark a turning point in his life. The betrayal he faced from both Brooke and Hope leaves him isolated and broken. Meanwhile, Hope’s decision to cut ties with Carter further strains her already fragile relationships within the Forrester family.

As the dust settles, the Forrester family is left to pick up the pieces of yet another betrayal. Brooke must grapple with the fallout of betraying her own daughter, while Hope’s actions risk alienating her further from the people she once called family.
