The Bold and The Beautiful spoilers and updates tease that Hope Spencer (Annika Noelle) seems to be mismatched romantically, and needs a new man. Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) has a history of waffling, and Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) a history of manipulation, so she’s be better to start over with someone new.

The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Extreme Jealousy

Not only does Liam have a history of waffling, he’s also extremely jealous and when you get right down to it, he’s insecure, having been very quick to jump to conclusions. When Thomas had the brain aneurysm, he believed the Hope mannequin was really Hope and was making out with it when Liam barged in and never thought twice. Liam simply assumed the mannequin really was Hope, and rushed off for a drunken night of love with Steffy Forrester-Finnegan (Jacqueline Macinnes Wood) causing a “who’s the daddy” scenario.

Now, he’s hurt Hope beyond redemption of their marriage because of his extreme jealousy over Thomas. If he trusted her he wouldn’t be worried, and he didn’t attend her big “Hope For The Future” line preview because Thomas worked with her on it.

B & B Spoilers – Extreme Manipulation

Liam may be right to a point about Thomas’ obsession with Hope returning, but that is all the more reason he should have stayed at the show. Thomas has been fighting falling in love with Hope, but this week he tries to kiss her and seems to be losing the battle. Perhaps he’s only been pushing his feelings down all along and there can be a very thin line between love and obsession for some, he seems to be one of them. But in the past, he was an extreme manipulator and extremely selfish and at times dangerous; he’s still somewhat manipulative but doesn’t seem to be psychotically so. He has used that voice changer app to force his father to leave Brooke Forrester (Katherine Kelly Lang) for Taylor Hayes (Krista Allen) but not for his own selfish reasons.

The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Someone New Is Needed

Someone new is definitely needed as a love interest for Hope, so she doesn’t go through the same patterns of pain over and over. The powers that be at B & B could create a new character as a true love for Hope, someone truly unselfish and loving who supports her. They did for Steffy, with Dr. John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) though he came with some horrible in-law baggage unbeknownst to him until Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) showed up.

Hope needs someone like Finn only without a parent like Sheila who would almost have to be a new character. There aren’t enough of Finn to go around and besides, he’s taken-we don’t want another waffle of Finn to Hope and back to Steffy!
