In the Friday, June 23, 2023, full episode recap of CBS’ Bold and the Beautiful, Liam tells Steffy Hope was kissing her brother, Finn and Taylor discuss the trip to Rome, and Hope and Thomas toast to their success.
We also have Thursday’s B&B recap where Liam’s world collapsed as he found Hope kissing Thomas, while Ridge found his destiny — Brooke — in the Aventine keyhole.
As Thomas and Hope stand by the Colosseum, he says he feels like they’ve made history today. Liam spots them in the distance and watches as his wife starts kissing the other man intensely.
She stops, looks at Thomas, and then starts kissing him again. Liam runs away.
Joining hands, Thomas and Hope walk the streets. They get some espresso and toast to their success. Hope beams.
Some fans of theirs show up and ask for a photo with Hope. Thomas takes it.
Ridge stares through the Aventine keyhole as he spots Brooke. Carter keeps the line of tourists back as he doesn’t budge.
Ridge says it’s the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen. Finally, Ridge jogs away.
As he runs, he flashes back through his recent conversations with Brooke.
After running through some parks, he finds Brooke at a wall looking out over the city.
“I found you,” he says, startling her. She was lost.
Ridge says he was lost and saw his future through a keyhole. It’s her.
“I don’t want to spend another day without my Logan,” he says. Brooke is overwhelmed and gets him to say it again. He asks her to be his Logan forever. They kiss.
When Carter bumps into Steffy, he tells her her dad was looking in the keyhole and then went running. She looks worried.
Wandering off, she finds Liam moping and asks if he couldn’t find Hope.
“I found her,” he says. “In the arms of your brother.”
Steffy is appalled. Morose Liam tells her it wasn’t her brother’s fault. She was right. Hope kissed Thomas. That’s the one thing that could tear their marriage apart.
Shaking her head, Steffy says he doesn’t deserve this.
As he holds himself and shudders, he details what he saw and the way his wife kissed her brother. She chose him. He saw the one thing he can’t unsee: his wife with his nemesis.
“I think my marriage is over,” he says.
As he cries, she tells him he doesn’t deserve this. He kisses her. She’s shocked.
