What can you expect from the May 19, 2025, episode of The Bold and the Beautiful?
In the May 19, The Bold and the Beautiful episode, Hope will finally decide to go after Carter, just like Liam urged her to. She will leave Brooke’s house determined to talk to Carter and explain what she really feels. However, she will not know that Carter is no longer at Forrester.
After the emotional blow from hearing her tell Liam she loved him, Carter will have left with Daphne and taken her back to his loft. Daphne will stay close to him and keep reminding him that she warned him about Hope. She will say Hope never deserved his loyalty and was always going to run back to Liam. Carter, still angry and heartbroken, will start questioning whether he ever really knew Hope at all.
Meanwhile, back at Forrester, Brooke will notice Hope’s absence and may check in with Steffy. Hope and Steffy will run into each other soon after. The two women will have a tense but civil conversation. Steffy will tell Hope she respects what she’s going through and that the time has come to stop the back-and-forth. They will talk about Liam and how much he means to both of them.
At some point, Steffy will suggest they stop fighting and try to rebuild what’s broken—not just in their personal lives, but professionally too. Steffy will raise the idea of bringing Hope’s fashion line back to Forrester Creations. She’ll say it’s time to set an example and stop dragging past drama into their work. This will surprise Hope, but she won’t turn it down.
Elsewhere, Carter and Daphne will still be at the loft. Daphne will take this as her moment to prove she’s not going anywhere. She will try to be supportive and calm while also reminding Carter that Hope was never fully in.
Daphne will offer comfort but will also press her advantage, hoping Carter finally opens his eyes to her. While she will not be too aggressive, she will make it clear she wants a future with him if he’s ready to let go of Hope.
Hope, unaware of what’s happening at the loft, will eventually figure out where Carter went. She will arrive at his place just as Daphne gets more comfortable in his space. In The Bold and the Beautiful, Hope may walk in on them, but how she reacts will depend on what she hears or sees.
Monday’s episode will set up a potential confrontation between all three. Hope will be forced to decide if she still wants to fight for Carter—and if it’s already too late.
