Big news just dropped on The Bold and the Beautiful—Hope and Carter are officially engaged, and reactions from the Forrester family are rolling in!
The couple didn’t waste any time after their big moment. Practically glowing with happiness, they made a beeline for Forrester Creations, where Hope proudly flaunted the dazzling engagement ring Carter gave her. Right there in the heart of the company, she broke the news to Brooke Logan, Steffy Forrester, and Ridge Forrester.
Brooke’s reaction? Pure joy. As Hope’s mother, she couldn’t be happier. Brooke has always wanted the best for her daughter, and in her eyes, Carter is a dream come true. She sees him as Hope’s true destiny and is convinced he’ll give her the love and stability she deserves. You could see the genuine pride and emotion on her face as she wrapped her arms around the happy couple.
Steffy’s response was a bit more layered. On the surface, she was smiling and supportive. She congratulated Hope, and there’s no doubt she’s making an effort to be happy for her. But there’s definitely something simmering just below the surface. When the announcement was made, Ridge and Steffy exchanged a glance—one that said more than words could.
That look said it all. Ridge and Steffy are clearly concerned. The history between Hope and Carter isn’t exactly squeaky clean. In fact, their time together in the past came with major consequences—most notably when they played a key role in ousting Steffy, Ridge, and Eric Forrester from control of the company. So while this engagement might look like a fresh start, the memory of that betrayal still lingers for Ridge and Steffy.
To Steffy’s credit, she’s trying hard to let bygones be bygones. She's focusing on family unity and putting Hope’s happiness first. It’s not easy, but she’s making the effort, and it shows. Ridge, too, is trying to keep things positive. He openly admitted that he wants Hope to be happy. And of course, let’s not forget—Carter is Ridge’s best friend. So there’s a lot of loyalty there.
For now, everyone is playing nice. The smiles are there, the congratulations have been given, and the mood is festive. But it’s clear there’s still a bit of tension in the air. Whether it’s old wounds, unresolved doubts, or just protective instincts kicking in, Ridge and Steffy aren’t fully convinced this is the fairytale ending everyone hopes for.
So what happens next? Will the engagement bring peace to the Forrester clan—or stir up old drama?
