The Bold and the Beautiful on Monday, June 23, will see Taylor plotting a surprising engagement ambush, while Carter works to help Hope deal with her guilt. The episode focuses on the ongoing struggle for Ridge’s affection and Hope’s complicated feelings.
Taylor, feeling insecure about Brooke’s persistent hold on Ridge, plans a decisive move to secure her future with him. Her strategy involves a sudden proposal at Il Giardino, hoping a quick engagement will remove any lingering thoughts of Brooke from Ridge’s mind. However, Ridge’s reaction to Taylor’s proposal will be anything but enthusiastic, hinting at his own reservations about rushing into marriage.
Meanwhile, Carter steps in to help Hope move beyond her current issues and guilt. Steffy had encouraged Carter to support Hope, and he does his best to guide her through her emotional turmoil. The core relationship between Brooke and Ridge remains a huge part of the show, a constant pull in the background.
Nick observes Taylor’s proposal, and it’s likely he will report the news back to Brooke, setting the stage for further friction. While the fate of Daphne remains unknown, the focus stays on the central triangle.
The Bold and the Beautiful airs weekdays on CBS.
