Carter Walton and Hope Logan's biggest betrayal marks a point of no return as the Forresters vow to make them pay. Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say the couple burned all their bridges with the powerful family when they tricked them into signing away the rights to their company.
Although Carter was the one who executed the scheme, Hope is getting most of the blame–at least from the Forresters. Will she get more than what she bargained for?
Bold and the Beautiful: Hope Gets All the Blame
Carter Walton shamelessly waltzed to the top after successfully ousting Ridge and Steffy Forrester from the FC throne. With the takeover complete, the fuming former bosses are starting to play the blame game, squarely placing the spotlight on Hope Logan.
Bold and the Beautiful spoilers reveal Ridge and Steffy are adamant that none of this would've happened if it wasn't for Brooke Logan's daughter. The father-daughter duo believe Hope is the driving force behind Carter's cunning move, blaming her entirely for it.
Ridge even called her names, which obviously did not bode well with Carter. Of course, Ridge's growing animosity towards Hope is becoming a serious problem for him and Brooke.
The Ripple Effect of Hope's Actions
As Ridge's resentment towards Hope deepens, so does the rift between him and Brooke. Bold and the Beautiful spoilers note their solid relationship is now facing a serious strain in the aftermath of Hope's actions.
Brooke remains steadfast in defending Hope, insisting that Steffy is the one who started it all. However, Ridge is not letting his partner spin the situation and put the blame on his daughter.
Ridge lashes out at Brooke for seemingly justifying Hope and Carter's deceit. He's done with her playing the victim and vows to put an end to it once and for all.
With everything that's going on, Ridge and Brooke's relationship teeters on the edge. At this point, it won't be surprising if Ridge ends up leaving Brooke. If she continues to defend Hope, it's likely game over for "Bridge."
Bold and the Beautiful: Will Guilt Consume Hope?
But Brooke and Ridge's relationship isn't the only one affected by Hope's latest antics. Bold and the Beautiful speculation suggests Eric Forrester might take his frustrations out on Donna Logan. The couple had been living peacefully before this drama unfolded, but if Donna chooses to support her niece, Eric will likely be deeply disappointed.
So far, it's unclear where Donna's loyalty lies, but if she decides to stand by Hope, she'll likely have to deal with Eric and Ridge's wrath, too.
The collapse of Brooke and Donna's relationships with the Forresters could weigh heavily on Hope, intensifying her guilt. In the end, will she be able to silence her conscience, or will it become too much to bear?
