The Bold and the Beautiful Recap: Hope Chooses Love, Carter Steps Aside, and Brooke Drops a Bombshell (October 2, 2025)

Hope’s Heart Caught Between Two Men

At Forrester Creations, Carter pushed for a quick wedding, convinced nothing stood in their way. But Hope hesitated, her mind clouded by doubts and her heart tugged toward Liam. A timely text from Liam – reminding her of Beth’s wish to see her parents together – sealed her decision.

In a bittersweet moment, Carter realized Hope’s love belonged elsewhere. With quiet dignity, he removed her engagement ring, kissed her goodbye, and told her to follow her heart. It was a heartbreaking yet noble gesture that left fans torn between joy for Hope and sympathy for Carter.

A Magical Dance with Liam and Beth

Meanwhile, Liam created a picture-perfect evening for Beth, complete with balloons, cookies, and punch. Dressed for her daddy-daughter dance, Beth longed for her mother to arrive. When Hope walked in, without her engagement ring, the message was clear – family came first.

The three shared a tender dance, a scene filled with laughter, tears, and the kind of intimacy that reminded fans why Liam and Hope’s bond remains so powerful.

Daphne Lights Up Il Giardino

Elsewhere, Daphne hosted an open mic night at Il Giardino to honor Tom’s memory. Carter attended and, still smarting from heartbreak, found himself captivated by her performance. Their lighthearted conversation afterward hinted at something new – perhaps the start of a romance that could finally heal Carter’s lonely heart.

Brooke’s Stunning Revelation

The night ended with a jaw-dropping twist at Forrester. Katie revealed to Brooke and Ridge that Luna, presumed gone, was actually alive. The shocking news promises fallout across the Forrester family, with Steffy and others likely reeling from the revelation.
