For weeks, viewers of The Bold and the Beautiful have prepared themselves for Liam Spencer’s tragic end, due to his terminal illness. Hope Logan, torn between her loyalty to Liam and her budding feelings for Carter Walton, makes an emotional choice—she returns to Liam, determined to share his final days. Carter, heartbroken but in denial, refuses to believe she’s truly gone. To him, it’s just a matter of time before she returns.

Then, unexpectedly, Carter becomes the one in crisis. Following a violent accident, he’s rushed to the hospital, and doctors discover he has a brain tumor. What was originally Liam’s tragic farewell suddenly shifts direction. Hope, once so sure of where her heart belonged, now finds herself paralyzed by a cruel twist of fate. Could Carter, not Liam, be the one to die?

This shift flips everything. Liam, ready to let go, is now potentially outliving someone else. Hope is left to process the guilt of abandoning Carter. And the rest of the cast—Steffy, Ridge, Brooke—are shaken by the idea that Carter, the one who supported everyone in silence, might be the next to leave. The storyline forces everyone to reexamine their priorities and past choices. And most of all, it asks: will Carter survive, and if he does, will he learn to love in a healthy way?

The Touching Final Wedding – Steffy & Hope Become Liam’s Brides The Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers

Carter Walton has always pursued love with a kind of romantic desperation. From Quinn to Katie, he’s always ended up with a broken heart. When he fell for Hope Logan, many fans thought maybe—just maybe—he’d finally found a real chance. But when Liam Spencer’s diagnosis pushed Hope to recommit to her family, Carter was left behind, devastated.

Carter couldn’t accept it. He believed that Liam’s illness had clouded Hope’s decision and that once things calmed, she’d return to him. He held onto hope—too tightly. But his emotional spiral took a shocking turn when he was involved in a serious car accident. As if fate wasn’t finished with him yet, tests revealed something terrifying: Carter had a brain tumor.

Now, the roles have reversed. While Liam’s health seems to stabilize, Carter’s life hangs in the balance. Hope is thrust into emotional chaos, confronting the guilt of walking away. She never imagined Carter would be the one she might lose. Liam feels the weight of surviving when someone else may not. Steffy, Daphne, and others are left wondering how they missed Carter’s internal pain. The man who always gave to others is now the one slipping away. And if he survives, will Carter finally free himself from chasing unreachable love—or continue down the same lonely path?
