In a dramatic twist set to shake the very foundation of The Bold and the Beautiful, Hope Logan finds herself at the center of an emotional storm that could change everything for her, Liam, and Carter. In the stillness of the Forrester guest house kitchen, Hope stares down at the pregnancy test in her hands — two pink lines stare back, confirming her worst fear and deepest confusion. She’s pregnant. And she has no idea who the father is.

The pregnancy comes on the heels of a chaotic emotional journey. It all began the night Liam confided in her that he had been diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor. Her world cracked at the news. Despite all the baggage and heartbreak they shared, Liam was Hope’s anchor — someone she had never truly stopped loving. And in a moment of heartbreak and desperation, they gave in to their emotions. Their night together wasn’t planned. It was raw, fleeting, and felt like a goodbye.

But life rarely waits for grief to pass.

In the aftermath, Hope sought solace in Carter, who had been a quiet source of strength during Liam’s health crisis. Their connection deepened, and on a night when Hope needed grounding, she found herself in Carter’s arms. It was supposed to be comfort, a way to feel normal again — but now it only adds layers of guilt and confusion.

When Hope discovers she’s pregnant, reality crashes down hard. She’s trapped between two men, two very different futures, and a secret that could destroy all three. Carter is distant and growing increasingly frustrated, feeling Hope slip away emotionally. He doesn’t know about the night with Liam. And Liam, though quietly suspicious, hasn’t confronted Hope about her emotional distance — not yet.

Trying to find clarity, Hope makes a quiet visit to her OB-GYN, opting not to tell anyone — not even her mother Brooke. But the whispers of change don’t go unnoticed in Los Angeles. Steffy, always on high alert when it comes to Liam, picks up on Hope’s erratic behavior and growing secrecy. When she spots Hope leaving a Beverly Hills medical office, alarm bells go off. Brooke too senses something’s wrong, watching her daughter wrestle with silent anguish.

Back at Forrester Creations, the tension is thick. Ridge, Carter, and even Thomas begin noticing the shifts in Hope’s demeanor. She’s radiant but distracted. Carter grows increasingly concerned as the warmth between them fades. Meanwhile, Liam, even with a ticking clock on his life, is sharper than ever. He senses Hope is hiding something monumental.

Eventually, the secret is too much for Hope to carry alone. Liam invites her to his beach house for a quiet evening. With candles burning and their favorite music playing, he gently confronts her. “There’s something you’re not telling me,” he says. Hope, unable to lie to a dying man she once believed was her forever, confesses the truth: she’s pregnant. And she doesn’t know who the father is.

Liam is gutted. The silence that follows is more deafening than any argument. He leaves without a word, shattering the fragile peace Hope had been trying to preserve.

Back at Forrester, Ridge pulls Carter aside. “You know Hope’s pregnant, right?” Ridge reveals he overheard a call Hope made to the doctor. Carter is floored — he had no idea. Soon, the news spreads through the office like wildfire. Whispers echo down hallways, speculations fly, and everyone wants answers. Thomas, angry and protective of the company’s image, lashes out at Hope. Steffy, even more furious, confronts her directly, accusing her of creating chaos during Liam’s final days.

Meanwhile, Bill Spencer hears the rumors and corners Carter with a pointed question: “You planning to raise another man’s baby?” Carter has no answers. PR teams scramble to prepare statements, while Brooke tries to shield her daughter from the growing storm — though even she struggles to come to terms with Hope’s actions.

Then comes the letter.

Hope receives a handwritten note from Liam. No return address, just his unmistakable handwriting. In it, he tells her he’s scheduled a paternity test. He needs to know the truth before his time runs out — not just for himself, but for the baby as well. It’s a gut punch that brings Hope to tears. The clock is officially ticking.

As Hope clutches her stomach, feeling the tiny life growing inside her, she whispers to the child, “Please… just let me have peace, whoever you are.” But peace is rarely an option in the world of The Bold and the Beautiful.

Now, with a shocking revelation on the horizon and emotions at a boiling point, the question remains: who is the father of Hope’s child? Liam, the man facing the end with dignity, or Carter, the man who tried to give her a new beginning?

The answer will shake the Logan, Spencer, and Forrester families to their core — and nothing will ever be the same again.
