This week\u2019s messiest move goes to Liam and Hope (especially Hope) on The Bold and the Beautiful<\/em>. They\u2019re getting back together for their daughter, Beth. Not because they love each other.<\/p>\n For months, fans have wondered if Hope (Annika Noelle) and Liam (Scott Clifton) would get back together. They spent a lot of time together, especially when Liam thought he was going to die.<\/p>\n Then, he found out that Grace (Cassandra Creech) was only using him to pay back her ex-husband\u2019s gambling debts. That scene of Hope and Liam finding out the news was so powerful. We kind of wanted \u201cLope\u201d back together.<\/p>\n So did their daughter, Beth (Jordyn Lynn Ariza), who wouldn\u2019t stop bringing up the fact that their family was better when \u201cmommy and daddy\u201d were together. Even Liam had to sit Beth aside and assure her that they were still a family unit, no matter what happened.<\/p>\n Ultimately, Beth got her wish. It took Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor)<\/a> to realize that Hope wanted to go back to Liam because of their daughter. He told her to give their daughter what she wanted.<\/p>\n First off, it was messy because Hope did to Carter what she did to Thomas (Matthew Atkinson). She stayed with him until she realized that she couldn\u2019t fully commit to him. (B&B fans say Steffy was right \u2014 Hope used Thomas.<\/a>)<\/p>\n It\u2019s also messy because there\u2019s no love story between the exes. The montage only included the hardest parts of their marriage, most of which involved nearly losing baby Beth.<\/p>\n Beth\u2019s expectations played a role in Hope and Liam\u2019s decision. A true reunion would involve their desires, attraction, and love for one another, followed by Beth\u2019s wants.<\/p>\n Liam wants to have what Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and Finn (Tanner Novlan) have with Hope and Beth. Sadly, there\u2019s no passion in this storyline.<\/p>\n Ultimately, Liam and Hope chose their family. They didn\u2019t choose love. While most couples stay together for the sake of their kids, it\u2019s never a good idea, even for the sake of their own children.<\/p>\n This story was originally reported on Soap Hub<\/a> on October 5, 2025.
