Characterization The young adult character of Hope was first described as "A polar opposite of what her mother Brooke once was, Hope makes no secret of her more traditional and reserved views on sex and marriage". Speaking about the character's dramatic aging and her storyline, head writer Bradley Bell stated: "Aging the character of ‘Hope’ to a teenager allows us to bring the next generation of ‘Logans’ to the forefront, as well as play a broader range of the ‘Forrester’ vs. ‘Logan’ story. ‘Hope’s’ presence at Forrester Creations, as well as in ‘Brooke’ and ‘Ridge’s’ home, sparks an intense competition between ‘Hope’ and her step-sister ‘Steffy’ as well as creates new conflict between long-time rivals ‘Brooke’ and ‘Taylor’ as each woman is determined to protect her own daughter."

Character History
Conception, Birth and Childhood

Hope was born as the result of a scandalous affair between Brooke Logan and Deacon Sharpe, who at the time was married to Brooke's oldest daughter, and Hope's older sister, Bridget Forrester. Whip Jones married Brooke to give the baby a name and hide its paternity, but Brooke was disgraced when the truth came out. Brooke hid at the Big Bear cabin, where she went into labor. Brooke's nemesis, Stephanie Douglas, had actually been trying to help Brooke turn over a new leaf and came to the rescue, along with Bridget, and together, they delivered Brooke's baby. To observe Brooke's new point of view, Bridget suggested naming the baby Hope. Deacon wanted to be a part of Hope's life, but Brooke forbade it, even after Deacon quit drinking, became respectable, and settled into a relationship with Macy Alexander. Macy encouraged Deacon to visit Hope and her older brother, Eric Sharpe, and attempt custody rights. Brooke became engaged to Nick Marone, who wanted to adopt Hope. Deacon balked, but Nick promised visitation rights if Deacon complied. Nick became a second father to Hope.

Swimming in a hot tub in the back part of Brooke's house, Nick got distracted and didn't see little Hope experimenting with holding her breath underwater. Hope's hair got caught in the drain, and she almost drowned. Hope suffered two seizures and went into a coma, but made a full recovery.

Later, Hope called 9-1-1 after she and her little brother, R.J. Forrester, were unintentionally left alone all night, arousing the concern of Child Protective Services. But after Hope and R.J. set the living room on fire, and the children were removed from Brooke's care, and sparked a custody battle with Stephanie. Hope inadvertently caused Thorne Forrester and Taylor Hamilton to call off their wedding when Hope told Thorne's daughter, Alexandria Forrester, that Taylor had run down Alexandria's late mother, Darla Einstein, with her car. Hope was ultimately raised by Brooke's on-again-off-again husband, Ridge Forrester.

Almost Raped by Graham Darros In 2010, teen-aged Hope became an intern at Forrester Creations and found herself the flashpoint of a power struggle set off by Bill Spencer Jr.'s takeover of the company. Steffy Forrester didn't want to share Ridge with Hope at work, in addition to her personal life since her dad was married to Hope's mom, and felt slighted when Hope's idea for a fashion line was chosen over Steffy's. Hope overheard Brooke and Ridge discussing Hope's scandalous paternity, and when Ridge referred to Hope as a "stain on the family name," Hope ran to photographer Graham Darros, unaware that he had raped Agnes Jones years earlier. Graham drugged Hope's drink and tried to rape her, too, but Nick arrived and saved Hope from Graham.

Romance with Oliver, Rivalry with Steffy, and The Broliver Scandal Hope met Agnes's brother, Oliver Jones, and began a sweet romance with him. Steffy decided she wanted Oliver for herself, and tried to use her sexuality to best Hope, who was a virgin. However, Oliver didn't take the bait. Steffy further harassed Hope by sabotaging Hope's first "Hope For The Future" showing.

Hope had a huge graduation party where all the guests wore masks and identical clothes. Oliver thought Hope whispered, "I'm ready" as a signal she was ready for sex, and made love to her on the terrace. But Oliver was horrified to learn that he had made love to Brooke, who thought Oliver was Ridge. Hope was devastated and tried to recreate the party in an attempt to understand what happened. Hope forgave Oliver, but couldn't get the image of Oliver and her mother out of her head.

Romance with Liam Spencer Hope met Liam and learned he didn't know who his father was and she helped him find him and it turned out to be Bill Spencer Jr. Liam Spencer finally adjusted to the fact that Bill was his long-lost father. Hope started dating Liam and forgot about Oliver, who wanted to win Hope back. Steffy made a play for Liam, too, but Liam had fallen for Hope. Bill thought Liam could do better and upset Hope by announcing to the media that Liam was "the world's most eligible bachelor". Liam got drunk at the party and was escorted home by social climber Amber Moore. Liam hit his head and woke up next to Amber. Later, she insisted she was carrying Liam's baby. Liam couldn't remember what happened, and he and Hope went through an array of makeups and breakups, trying to decide between their love and what was best for the baby. All the while, Oliver was there trying to convince Hope to return to him.

The night Amber's baby was born, Hope was considering Oliver's proposal at the Big Bear cabin. But when Amber's child was born with some Sub-Saharan African phenotypes, it was revealed that the real father was Marcus Forrester, Liam raced to the cabin in time to stop Hope from accepting Oliver's proposal. Liam and Hope reunited, but Hope still wanted to remain a virgin until her wedding night, and layered that message into "Hope For The Future". Frustrated, Liam proposed to Hope during a fashion show. Hope accepted privately, but her family wouldn't let Hope move up the wedding because of her public stance in the media. Steffy, who had fallen in love with Liam after a disastrous tryst with Bill, declared herself sexually available. Hope caught Liam kissing Steffy in a limo and broke up with Liam in a cell phone message, leaving her engagement ring on Liam's mantel. A confused Liam ended up offering the ring to Steffy.

Thomas' interest in Hope Hope knew she could clear things up with Liam if she had a chance to talk to him. Steffy and Bill knew this too, so Bill sent Steffy and Liam to Aspen. Hope followed, but Bill arranged to have Hope trapped in a gondola, where she was forced to watch Liam and Steffy exchange vows. Steffy's brother, Thomas Forrester, took a liking to Hope and planned on proposing to Hope in Cabo San Lucas, not knowing that Steffy and Liam were at the same resort. Steffy and Thomas tried to keep Hope from seeing Liam, which resulted in an ATV chase on the beach. Liam found Hope and kissed her, while Steffy was injured falling off her ATV.

Bill Interferes Bill knew Liam wanted to return to Hope, so Bill fixed Steffy's MRI to suggest she had a life-threatening blood clot that could worsen under stress. Liam felt obligated to stay with Steffy until Katie Logan - Hope's aunt and Bill's wife - found out what Bill had done. Hope threatened to go public with Bill's crime, but ultimately didn't. Hope was livid when Steffy held out for a proper divorce and refused to sign Liam's annulment papers, causing Hope's first attempt to marry Liam to fail. Hope felt she could take her power back from Steffy if she simply moved in with Liam, but Hope had a deep-seated fear of becoming like her openly sexual mother, Brooke, and froze up in bed.

Pill Prescriptions Hope sought therapy with Dr. Stacy Barton, who prescribed a small dose of anti-anxiety pills. Rather than deal with her issues, Hope latched on to the pills so she could finally make love to Liam. Hope was labeled an adulteress when a photo of Hope and Liam leaked to the press, but Dr. Barton wouldn't renew Hope's prescription, so the frantic Hope didn't question the bottle that showed up on her desk with a note from the therapist. Amber had forged the note and unwittingly bought potentially tainted pills for Hope on-line as a bargaining tool. Hope increased her dosage as the press hounded her, becoming so disoriented that she almost drowned after falling into the Forrester pool. Hope told Liam about the pills and promised to stop taking them.

Bill still wanted Hope out of Liam's life, so he arranged to have Hope besieged by reporters while she was in Aspen with Liam. A photographer snapped a panicked Hope downing another pill, though Bill never used the photo. However, Hope got so high on the slopes that she was barely aware of crashing into Steffy, who was in Aspen promoting her new ski line. Liam stayed with Steffy after the accident with Hope, because she had hurt her knee. Hope apologized profusely when Liam got angry about the accident, and she then swore off pills forever again before going home to Los Angeles by herself. Hope didn't know that Liam, who felt drawn to Steffy again, kissed Steffy after ripping up Steffy's signed annulment papers after she played on his guilt over the accident.

Many Marriage Attempts to Liam and Bill and Steffy's interference When Liam returned, Hope moved out and told him that she could only live with him as husband and wife. Brooke found out about the annulment papers and agreed not to tell Hope, instead planning a sumptuous wedding for Hope and Liam in Italy. Meanwhile, Hope was unaware that Liam was waffling on whether he wanted to be with Hope or Steffy. And Bill, continuing his anti-Hope campaign, and found Hope's father, Deacon Sharpe, serving time in a Genoa City jail and offered to spring Deacon if he would help stop Hope's wedding.

On Hope's wedding day in Puglia, Italy, Hope was stunned to find Deacon at her door. Hope was overjoyed to see her father and asked him to walk her down the aisle, which he politely refused. Hope accepted Deacon's apology for not being there for her growing up, then rushed to her wedding, working around the many obstacles Bill had put in her path. Liam had left the church by the time Hope finally got there, so Hope raced back to the hotel and explained everything to an angry Liam who had misunderstood what had happened on that day. Hope was thrilled to marry Liam later that day, blissfully unaware that Liam had kissed Steffy again and was ready to run off with her, which an iPad accidentally recorded.

Hope and Liam married, inspiring Hope to create the Hope's Perfect Wedding fashion line. But when Hope discovered the video of Liam and Steffy kissing, Hope refused to sign the papers that would legalize the union, instead insisting on a "do-over" wedding. Liam arrived with dyed hair and a tattoo after partying at a club with Steffy the night before. Liam begged for forgiveness in his underwear, but Hope told Liam he didn't deserve her. Hope's half-brother, Rick Forrester, had a friend, Othello, who was a DJ at the club. Othello told Hope he'd seen Liam and Steffy in a passionate embrace there, but Hope didn't know Rick had gotten Othello to lie to keep Hope from reuniting with Liam. Rick pushed Hope toward Thomas in an attempt to have Thomas' girlfriend, Caroline Spencer II, for himself. A conflicted Thomas kissed Hope, but Hope told Thomas they could only be friends.

Hope and Liam bonded when Katie almost died in childbirth, but Hope rebuffed Liam's attempt at a reconciliation. Later, Hope was hurt when she found out Liam had gone back to Steffy and had sex with her. When Caroline started dating Rick, Hope took a clandestine photo of Thomas and Caroline's embrace to show to Rick. But it wasn't long before Hope realized she wasn't over Liam, and started thinking maybe he wasn't over her either.

Hope felt betrayed when Rick finally confessed he had gotten Othello to lie about Liam and Steffy. Later, Dayzee Leigh let it slip that Marcus had overheard a conversation in which Bill was plotting to sabotage Hope's wedding in Italy. Enraged, Hope busted into Bill's house with a golf club when he denied her entry, and confronted him. Bill neither admitted nor denied the stunt, but Hope ran straight to Liam with the information, insisting they were due a chance to be together. Liam was moved and kissed Hope, which a pregnant Steffy saw. When Steffy went out of town and gave Liam permission to work through his feelings for Hope, the formerly gentle Hope, became more aggressive and turned on the charm. Hope told Liam he should ask Steffy to move out so he'd be in a better place to make a choice between them.

While Liam deliberated, Hope and Steffy argued, culminating in Hope accidently shoving Steffy into a desk when Steffy berated her about Brooke. Meanwhile, Brooke threw Hope and Liam a surprise wedding, complete with the priest who had officiated at their ceremony in Italy. Liam was about to put the ring on Hope's finger when Steffy rushed in, announcing she was pregnant. Initially, Hope felt that she and Liam could raise Steffy's baby themselves, but later, when Liam said his place was with the baby and its mother, Hope told Liam he should marry Steffy before the baby came. Hope floored Steffy by asking her to leave Forrester Creations, insisting that she couldn't take seeing Steffy there every day.

Hope became increasingly sullen as Liam's wedding day approached, despite Oliver's attempts to cheer her up. When Hope decided to interrupt the wedding, Brooke and Rick managed to talk her out of it, but it didn't stop Hope from sending Liam a congratulatory text on his wedding night. Thomas and Oliver, who had moved in together at Taylor's old beach house, invited Hope over for surfing to keep her occupied, but when Steffy came over and told Thomas how happy she and Liam were, Hope overheard and burst into tears. Hope broke down but told her that she was happy for her and they hugged.

Hope tried to bury herself in her rebooted "Hope for the Future" line, which was now being represented by Maya Avant. But when Thomas found out that the pregnant Steffy had been in a motorcycle accident, Hope took Thomas to see her at the hospital. Hope wasn't sure she should be there, considering, but Bill uncharacteristically asked her to stay. When Steffy miscarried her baby, Hope felt bad but began to wonder if Steffy's part in the accident might prompt Liam to divorce her. Taylor told Hope to stay away from Liam, suggesting that Liam and Steffy would soon be trying for another baby. But Hope called Liam over anyway, telling Liam that they had another choice now and they ended up kissing.

Meeting Wyatt When Steffy ends her marriage to Liam, telling him that he's better off being with Hope then her, and leaves for Paris to spend time with her father, Hope, with Brooke's encouragement, goes over to console him and see if they still have a chance as a couple. Liam, however, is confused and upset over Steffy's decision to leave him, which in turn upsets Hope. Brooke, however, organizes a little getaway for them to the Forrester family cabin in Big Bear. While there, Hope comes to the realization that she and Liam can't get back what they once had, and that she may always be looking over her shoulder when it comes to him. She tells Liam that it's over. He goes back to Los Angeles while she stays behind in Big Bear where she decides to go take a walk in the woods by herself.

During her walk, Hope comes across a campsite where she sees a very handsome guy taking what is known as a "Solar Shower". Intrigued, she takes out her cell phone and snaps a picture of him, which causes him to notice her. Fearing his reaction, she runs off but slips and falls giggling pretty much the whole time running. The handsome guy, Wyatt Spencer, finds Hope knocked out and revives her. He later finds her cell phone and goes to the Forrester cabin where he not only gives her the phone back but also introduces himself. He also gives her a gentle kiss, which takes Hope's breath away. He even goes with Hope as her date to Rick's 4th of July party where he notices how tense things are between Hope and Liam. When Liam leaves after Hope told him to, Wyatt lets her know that he thinks Liam is an idiot for how he has treated her. After giving her a kiss, Hope is shocked to see that Wyatt is wearing a sword necklace similar to the one that both Liam and Bill wear. Liam decides to fly to Paris, France to find out why Steffy left him. Wyatt takes Hope o his mother's jewelry company after Hope asks about the necklace again. Hope meets Quinn Fuller, Wyatt's mother, and asks her about the necklace, which Quinn doesn't deny designing. After Hope leaves, Quinn tells Wyatt that she doesn't think Hope's the one for him, which shocks him. Hope and Rick believe Bill Spencer's Wyatt's father because Quinn stated he was materialistic, self-centered, and a jerk but died when he was young which they felt was a lie. Hope tells Wyatt she thinks Bill Spencer is his dad and Liam's his half-brother. Wyatt then brings this up to his mother and Quinn denies it again and she doesn't want Wyatt hanging around Hope and tells him he can find way better women in L.A. then Hope Logan. Hope then makes Liam take his ring off then leaves. Later Liam takes Hope for a walk then takes Steffy's ring out of the fountain and proposes to her. Hope was very hesitant but said yes. Rick called her and Hope told him she's engaged and Rick told Brooke. Hope and Liam then have an intimate bond with candles. Wyatt can find much better girls in L.A. than Hope Logan. Quinn then told Wyatt to take his sword pendant off. Hope admit she and Bill aren't exactly fans of each other. Wyatt found out Hope was engaged but stayed friends and Wyatt told her to stop about the necklace. Hope wondered why questions about a man she doesn't know upset Quinn. Hope then told Wyatt to have him and his mother meet up at the same restaurant Liam and Bill were at to see what would happen. Quinn and Bill instantly recognized each other and stared at each other. Liam noticed Bill staring and encouraged unsure Bill to go and ask and Bill did. Bill introduced himself and Quinn denied knowing him. Bill mentioned she made him very happy by making his pendant for him. Bill then mentioned her name Quinn Fuller and she ran off scared. Wyatt went after her and asked if Bill Spencer was his real father and Quinn said yes. Wyatt was raging and Quinn said she lied to him that his father died because she was a teenager and once she was pregnant Bill wanted nothing to do with either of them and handed her money for an abortion. Quinn didn't want to loose her child and had Wyatt without Bill knowing. Wyatt drove off angrily. Liam then drove up to Bill and Quinn in his car and Bill hopped in and told Liam to follow the green car. Quinn then went back to the restaurant for her purse when Hope Logan decided to pop out. Quinn attacked Hope by yelling saying she had no reason to stick her pampered nose into this situation and she ruined everything. This started their rivalry. Hope and Quinn got into a huge fight when Hope's mother Brooke Logan came out to protect her daughter. Quinn walked off angrily. In their fight Quinn mentioned she thinks Hope's rich, pampered, and young. Quinn also told Hope she doesn't want her anywhere near her son. Wyatt drove to his apartment packing his stuff. Bill and Liam were trying to welcome him in as family. Wyatt was outraged at first but then Bill and Wyatt hugged when Quinn came in. Quinn then told Bill not to touch her child.

When Liam's taking a shower, Wyatt kisses Hope, which leaves her confused, resulting in her leaving. The next day, Wyatt randomly brings up Steffy's message to Liam on his tablet about her not wanting an annulment but wanting a divorce making Hope and Liam wait 6 months to get married, which stresses Hope out like crazy because of what happened before in the past. This gives Wyatt an opportunity to mess up their relationship. Hope demands Liam fly to Paris and make Steffy sign the annulment papers, or they don't get married. Liam had to do something at work but Wyatt kissed Hope twice by the time Liam came back. Liam punched Wyatt down to the ground making his lip bleed. Bill texted Wyatt to return to his house and Liam and Wyatt became more brotherly.Hope was acting ditsy about the whole thing, and Liam, realizing that he can't trust his brother, decided to throw Wyatt out of his house, but Bill overruled his son, allowing Wyatt to move back in.

Seeing Liam as weak, Wyatt increasingly felt that a place at Spencer was his birthright. Also wanting Hope for himself, Wyatt believed that Liam was the only person keeping him from both. After heading back to the Quinn Jewelry to get more of his belongings, he refused to forgive his mom for keeping him in the dark about his father and stated his intentions regarding Liam and Hope, even telling his mom that she needed to accept his relationship with Bill or she'd be left behind. Soon, Wyatt met Bill's soon-to-be ex-wife, Katie, who just separated from Bill due to his infidelity and unfaithfulness after he slept with her sister, Brooke. Katie also told Wyatt about Bill's fling with Steffy. Angry that his baby half-brother, Will, would suffer the same result of growing up without a father, Wyatt confronted Bill and alienated him so much that Bill kicked him not only of the house, but also cut him out of his life. Liam then confronted Wyatt, calling him two-faced and threw him out of the house again, saying he'd just be happy if he never saw Wyatt ever again.

Hope arrived back at Liam's house seeing Wyatt packing up. Wyatt told Hope everything that had happened and how inappropriate his father's relationship was with her mom, to which Hope agreed. Hope didn't want Wyatt to leave and offered to have them wait for Liam to come back and they could talk it out, but Wyatt wanted to leave anyway, even offering her to come with him and dump Liam. She politely turned down the offer, but still didn't want him to leave. Wyatt returned to Quinn and she welcomed him back home. He told his mom everything about what had happened with Bill and admitted that she was right about him all along. Later, Hope was looking through some jewelry for her clothing line. She managed to find the perfect set for her campaign and when Marcus told her the jewelry was designed by Quinn Artisan Jewelry, she was stunned. She ran over to Wyatt and Quinn and offered them a deal they couldn't refuse: have Quinn's jewelry join forces with Forrester Creations to design accessories for her campaign, to which both Wyatt and Quinn accepted. When Liam found out, he was furious that Wyatt wasn't out of his or Hope's lives. Wyatt smugly told Liam that Hope is still fair game until the day she walks down the aisle and says "I do" to Liam. Desperate, Liam tells Hope to cut off her contract with Quinn and Wyatt, which she did indeed try to do, but Eric turned her down saying the papers were already signed. When Wyatt found out about this, he went to Hope and offered to walk away himself. Hope's reassurance calmed Wyatt, but after Liam, out of desperation, finally convinced Steffy to sign an annulment, Hope was ecstatic. Wyatt was afraid now that the annulment was granted and ultimately pushing Hope's wedding to Liam up, Wyatt was afraid that Hope would kill the Forrester partnership. Quinn sold an idea to Wyatt to have him and Hope go down to Mexico to retrieve a special diamond for Hope For The Future, a recreation of the famous Hope Diamond. When Wyatt offered the trip idea to Hope, she agreed to go down just for business. While in Mexico, Wyatt and Hope see the diamond and asked the owner if they could loan it for her campaign. The diamond supposedly is magically and leads people to their destinies once they've seen it. Wyatt also confesses his true feelings towards Hope and again tells her to not rush into marriage with Liam.

During the fashion show Quinn found Liam's tablet and watched his marriage tribute video of Steffy, knowing he made one for Hope previously. Quinn sent it to her phone and deleted the thread. Pam saw that Quinn sent an email on her phone to Hope, but Quinn lied saying it was to Wyatt. While, Hope and Liam were at Big Bear, Cabin; Hope received the video and had a fight about Steffy with Liam, and Hope left back to L.A. Hope returned home and explained everything to Brooke about what happened. Brooke suggests that maybe it was time to end all of the heartbreak with Liam and be loved by a man who would only think of Hope, someone like Wyatt. Wyatt shows up and is livid that Liam has once again hurt Hope. Intrigued by his devotion towards her daughter, Brooke tells Wyatt to go see Hope at her cabin. Wyatt comforts Hope and once again suggests that she should end it with Liam and be with him. Liam shows up at Brooke's, demanding to know where Hope is so they could fix their relationship. At first, Brooke doesn't tell Liam until Bill shows up. Brooke finally tells Liam that Hope is at the cabin, but she is not alone. At the cabin, Hope finally has had enough of Liam's indecisiveness and takes off her engagment ring and kisses Wyatt as Liam watches.

Steffy returned to L.A. for a doctors appointment and came to see her grandfather Eric again where she met Quinn. Quinn gets a smile to see Steffy. While Steffy was getting on her plane to fly back to Paris, Quinn told Eric she'd meet at Forrester International in Paris and catch the flight with Steffy. Quinn arrives on the jet and convinces Steffy to break up Hope and Liam. Quinn continues to pressure Steffy into returning to Los Angeles and reuniting with Liam so Hope can be with Wyatt, to which Steffy shows no interest of doing. After more pressure, Steffy is forced to reveal to Quinn the reason why she left Liam and Los Angeles due to her miscarrying Liam's baby after a motorcycle accident. Arriving at Forrester International, Quinn apologizes to Steffy for making her relive the pain. Steffy then gets a phone call from Dr. Caspary informing Steffy that after several medical procedures is now finally able to conceive a child to full term. Quinn overhears the phone call. Quinn agains tries to convince Steffy to return to Los Angeles to reunite with Liam and deliver the spectacular news about her being able to conceive again, but Steffy still shows no interest whatsoever in going back, but still can't let go of her deep feelings she still has for Liam. Quinn finally convinces Steffy to go back.

Hope chooses Wyatt Quinn had Wyatt text her where Liam was which he got from Oliver. Quinn told Steffy to tell Liam in the cabin. Steffy thought hard about it but backed off when Liam saw her through the window. He noticed her and inside she told him she can conceive which Liam was happy for her. Quinn planted a letter in Hope's bedroom that Liam wanted to meet her at the cabin before their wedding. This is when Hope saw Liam talking to Steffy. Fed up with Liam and upset over what she saw, Hope calls off the wedding and not only rehires Quinn Artisian Jewelers but also goes to Hawaii with Wyatt. Liam, however, finds out where they are and goes to Hawaii himself. He finds Hope and tells her that he is the man for her and that he loves her. He even suggests eloping, but she refuses, having had enough of Liam's waffling. Hope ends the relationship, and a heartbroken Liam goes home to Los Angeles. Wyatt, in the meantime, lets Hope know that they have their whole lives to be together, and that when the time is right, he would love to marry her. He then gives her a beautiful necklace as a gift as well as an amazing kiss. However, their relationship is put in jeporady when a vengeful Liam reveals Wyatt's part in a jewelry heist. Hope considers terminating both her professional partnership with Quinn Artisian Jewelers as well as her romance with Wyatt, but he pleads with her for another chance, swearing that he will do everything he can to prove himself to her. She gives him another chance and agrees not to terminate the deal with his mother's company. Hope then tells Liam what she has decided. He tries to get her to change her mind, making it clear that Wyatt cannot be trusted, but Hope tells Liam that she loves Wyatt and is committed to him. She later goes on a business trip to Paris with her mother. Wyatt sneaks onto the Forrester jet and surprises Hope, which makes her happy. Hope thinks she is pregnant with Wyatt's child and wasn't with it for a while. She went by Liam's and through a receipt for a pregnancy test in his bushes which he found and went over there. Hope tells this to Wyatt as Liam rushes in. She retakes it and realizes she isn't pregnant. Hope is selfishly relieved and tells Wyatt she is even thought Wyatt somewhat wanted a child. Liam is dead relieved. Wyatt and Hope feel this is between them but Liam insists this affects him to. Wyatt is getting ready to take Hope camping again. Liam hops in the truck and kidnaps Hope, which freaks her out. She calls Wyatt who is alerted but can't stop Liam. Liam drives her to his place and they both can't let go of each other and fear losing each other. Liam demands equal time and for her to date them both if she shows up for dinner tonight. Wyatt tells Quinn that if Hope goes over to Liam's tonight she'd be dating them both (which Hope's mother Brooke has done with two half-brothers). Quinn wanted Wyatt to fight for her but Wyatt trusted Hope but didn't know what she was going to do. Of course, Hope does and dates them both which she goes back to talk to Wyatt who only cares about romancing her right now.

Bill and Brooke flew to Abu Dhabi and Dubai to get married. Ridge Forrester didn't like the Fuller's jewelry because he was upset that his ex-wife was marrying Bill Spencer. Quinn showed Wyatt the photo. Wyatt was against her using it because of his job and relationship with Hope. Quinn sent Ridge an e-mail of some jewelry pictures and the sex photo. Ridge was shocked and confronted Quinn who told him they had an "affair". Ridge showed this to Eric before he left for the Middle East. Eric confronted Quinn and Wyatt. Quinn brings up her relationship with Eric but that wasn't really relevant. Eric assured her she won't be losing her job. Ridge flew to Dubai and after they exchanged their "I Do's" yelled "Logan." and showed them the photo and Brooke was freaking out. Ridge punched Bill and took off with Brooke. Bill chased after them and Ridge and Brooke got in a helicopter. Bill nodded to the pilot and once they lifted Justin Barber the pilot swayed and Ridge fell in the middle of The Persian Gulf. Everybody thought Ridge could have been dead. Liam blamed Quinn for the possible death of Ridge Forrester. Rick fired Quinn and Wyatt from the company. Liam was badmouthing Quinn and Wyatt punched Liam down to the floor. Hope dumped Wyatt for the punch and Quinn's involvement. Wyatt called Hope to come to Big Bear to win her back over but Hope was confused and chose Liam. Quinn entered a bar and started drinking. Deacon sat next to her and started talking to her. Quinn explained she had a terrible day. She lost her job,son, and life. Quinn later mentioned that her son, Wyatt Spencer, is in love with a girl which she later mentions as Hope Logan. Quinn saw his face and asked if he knew her. Deacon said "Know her? Honey, I'm her daddy." Quinn was shocked to hear this. Deacon lets Quinn know that he talked to Hope and Ridge is still alive. Quinn was happy and relieved. Quinn and Deacon talked about Hope, Liam, and Wyatt.Deacon got a text from Quinn to come over to Quinn Artisan Jewellers Penthouse. Quinn asked if he has heard of Wyatt fro Hope in which he said he has. Quinn plans for her and Deacon to get Wyatt and Hope together again. Deacon needed something in exchange and told her he needed a place to stay. He asked to stay there and Quinn allowed him to stay in the penthouse. Deacon told her he can see what he could do. Hope had told Brooke and Liam that Deacon paid her a visit. Deacon asked Hope if she was over Wyatt while Hope stalled the situation. He told her she didn't answer the question. Wyatt came by the Forrester Mansion to tell her how happy he was for her that Ridge is alive at Ridge's welcoming back party. Liam came out and interrupted. Quinn told Deacon she's going to kill Liam. Deacon shows up at Wyatt's beach house and they had a couple friendly drinks while talking about Hope, Liam, and Wyatt.

Quinn stabbed Liam with his sword and says "Live by the sword, die by the sword." Liam saw this as a threat. Quinn came by Liam's at night and scared him while he took a flashlight and looked out the window and saw Quinn's face. Liam was shocked and tripped spraining his ankle. Liam told this to Hope who told Wyatt. Hope came over to the penthouse and questioned Quinn while Deacon eavesdropped unseen. Quinn lied to Hope and went to Liam's again. Quinn kicked him and told him she'll kill Hope too before she sees him with you. Liam and Hope told Wyatt who talked to Quinn. Later, Quinn made a sword and finally let Deacon see. Quinn left as Wyatt came. Deacon informed Wyatt about Quinn. Wyatt left while Quinn was threatening to kill Liam with the sword. Wyatt arrived just in time to push Quinn out of the way and save Liam.Wyatt told her she's done and Quinn teared and left. Wyatt thought about contacting the police but Liam told her to let her go. Wyatt, Liam, and Hope told Bill and Brooke about this and Wyatt got a phone call. A doctor said that his mother checked herself in to the mental care facility last night and she's getting help. She told him Quinn still loves him and will reach out to him when she gets better. They were all happy for Quinn. Quinn texted Wyatt and apologized for what she did to him, Liam, and Hope.

The man from Mexico who lent Wyatt the Hope For The Future Diamond, Ricardo Montemayor, has passed away and had no family or heir to pass it down to. He left it in the hands of Wyatt. Wyatt showed to Deacon and Wyatt said he promised to give it to Hope one day. Eric and Rick hired Eric's niece, Ivy Forrester, from Australia to work for the HFTF Jewelry line.

They both take his words as a metaphor, though he insists and he repeats that Beth is alive again. Hope gets upset at Douglas saying that Beth is alive and tells Liam that she will wait for Thomas in the car.

At the hotel, Thomas wants to be with Hope, but she confesses that she can't stop thinking about Liam and Beth, despite her husband's efforts to bed her. Unbeknownst to her, he then buys drugs from Vinny and puts them in the drawer in their room so that he can slip it into her drink if she continues to reject him but Steffy ends up calling after Douglas tells and shows Liam that Beth is indeed really alive.

One day Hope is in Il Giardino with Finn and they spot Deacon and Sheila Carter (Finn's biological mother) kissing. They confront them and they announce that they are a couple. Hope and Finn tell this story to Liam and Steffy. Steffy tells them it's another manipulation and they can't trust them. Hope and Finn talk about their parents and Hope tells him that it's not fair that they are being forced to not have contact with their parents. Steffy overhears it and is livid. She tells Hope that for all she cares, she can have contact with her dad, but she has to stay out of her marriage. Hope has no idea that before that Steffy encouraged Liam to not allow Hope to let Deacon back in her life. Soon thereafter, Steffy and Liam have another conversation about Deacon and how Hope shouldn't have him in his life, being a hypocrite when she had just asked Hope not to talk with Finn about his mother. Hope overhears and asks Steffy to stay out of her marriage just like she asked her to stay out of hers. Steffy however continues to say to Liam the same thing and she also tells Ridge that his wife Brooke should never let Deacon in and tells her ex and her dad. "Ok I'm just gonna say this and I'm saying this out of love, but both of your wives have a self righteous sanctimonious streak and when they think they're right there is nothing that we can do to change their minds." Ridge demands that Hope and Liam move out if she wants to see Deacon at the property, but Brooke puts her foot down and refuses to allow it even if Hope and Liam were willing to do it for Brooke's and Ridge's relationship.

Deacon starts working at Il Giardino and Brooke sees him there. She saw a non alcoholic champagne that Eric had bought especially for her at Christmas and ordered one for herself so she can have it for New Years Eve to toast with the others. Sheila arrives and then Brooke tells her that she will make sure to keep Sheila away from her family and especially Steffy, Finn and Hayes. Sheila is very angry at Brooke for what she said to her and then she learned that Brooke ordered a non alcoholic champagne and she switched the labels on the bottles with the one that Brooke would get, which would have alcohol in it. Brooke, Hope, Liam and Deacon toast at New Years Eve and Brooke has no idea she is drinking the real thing. Hope, Liam, and Deacon leave to spend time with the kids at the cabin. Deacon comes back to Brooke's with the excuse that he left his phone there. An already tipsy Brooke gets a call from Ridge at which time he tells her, he won't be able to make it home and asks Deacon to have a drink of vodka with her. She gets so drunk, she even accepts a kiss from him and she's horrified when she wakes up in bed with Deacon the next morning. She's still dressed and Deacon assures her that they didn't have sex, but Brooke tells him to never come back to her home and keep this whole thing, a secret. Ridge arrives late from his business meeting and Brooke reveals that she relapsed. Ridge takes Brooke to an AA meeting and is very supportive. Hope feels guilty, thinking that she might be the reason why her mother relapsed because of Deacon's visits and it could have added stress to her life. Hope also let's Steffy and Taylor (who just returned to LA) know that she wants them to respect Brooke and Ridge's marriage especially now when Brooke needs Ridge because she knows that Taylor blamed Brooke for the end of her marriage with Ridge. Steffy tells Hope that it will be Ridge's decision and keeps on asking Hope what is wrong with Brooke and why would she need help, but Hope doesn't reveal the truth to her and asks Liam to also not say a word to Steffy. One day her son Douglas Forrester reveals to her and Liam that Brooke kissed Santa on New Year's Eve. Hope immediately confronts her mother about it. She asks Brooke if she kissed her father. Brooke starts to tell her how it all went down on New Years Eve when she and Deacon drank vodka together. She confessed that at first it was all laughs and giggles, but they started reminiscing about the past and they kissed. She said that Deacon slept in the same bed however they didn't have sex and she expressed her fear that Steffy and Thomas are waiting to get their family with Ridge and Taylor back. Brooke is sure that if Ridge knew the truth she would lose him forever. She asks Hope to keep it all a secret. Hope replies that she can't keep it from Liam because Douglas told him about what he saw and he is asking questions. Brooke says it's not that she doesn't trust Liam, but she desperately wants to hold on to her marriage. Brooke realized that Douglas knows and he is probably running around telling everyone about it. Hope tries to assure Brooke that Douglas told only them, but she reminds her daughter that he is around Ridge, Taylor, Steffy and Thomas all the time and he might tell them. Hope reminds Brooke that she and Ridge have forgiven each other for far worse things. Hope goes back to the cabin where Liam is waiting for her with the news that Douglas is not changing his story about Grandma kissing Santa. Hope decided to tell Liam the truth and reveals that Santa was in fact her father Deacon. Both Hope and her husband don't want the truth to come out for the sake of Brooke's marriage and they comfort Brooke, and Hope helps Brooke keep the secret about her kissing Deacon. Hope talks with her father to ensure he won't say anything, but what she doesn't know is that her adoptive son Douglas already told his father Thomas that grandma Brooke kissed Deacon during his visit at Steffy's house. When Brooke learns that Douglas is at Steffy's house, spending time with his family and she panics. She asks Hope to call Thomas and bring him back. Thomas brings him to the cabin, Brooke asks to speak to Douglas alone and tells Douglas to forget about Christmas, but Douglas reminds her it was New Years Eve. She tells Douglas "the past is in the past" in an effort to try to make him forget about what happened on New Years Eve. Brooke hugs Douglas and it seems like he understood, but the boy can't forget about this event and talks about it with his father again. Douglas later remembers what he really saw on that night, Douglas tells his father Thomas that he didn't really see Brooke kissing Santa, he actually saw her kissing Deacon. Hope and Liam assure Brooke that her secret is safe, but what they are not aware of is that Douglas already told his father and aunt the truth about Brooke and Deacon's kiss which made Steffy Forrester more determined to break up Brooke and Ridge once and for all, so her father could go back to her mother. Steffy calls Charlie Webber and asked him if he can get into Brooke's security system and explained to him that she suspects that Brooke cheated on her father. Charlie agrees even though it was illegal and soon Steffy and Thomas found out that Deacon left Brooke's house, the next morning. Both of them assumed that the two had sex and they revealed it to their mother Taylor Hayes. Taylor decided that she must be the one to reveal the truth so she invited Ridge over. When Ridge left to see Taylor, Steffy came to see Brooke and taunted her by sarcastically reminding Brooke of her "destiny" with Ridge and confronting her about her past. She made it clear that she doesn't want her father to be with someone like her. Brooke also reminded Steffy how all the obstacles she and Ridge faced made them stronger.

Meanwhile Hope was at the cabin talking to Liam and telling him that she is so done with this old feud between Brooke and Ridge over who will Ridge stay with. Deacon joined them in the cabin and Hope told him that Brooke is planning to tell Ridge the truth about their New Year's kiss. Deacon was surprised and worried and he questioned if Brooke is ready for what is about to happen once she tells the truth. Liam advised Deacon to just stay out of it, as it's between Brooke and Ridge and Deacon has done enough already. Liam said that his actions, have consequences on the lives of the whole family including Douglas who saw the kiss. Hope tries to be hopeful that the family won't be turned upside down because of the kiss, but Liam reminds them how much Ridge dislikes Deacon and wonders what he might do once he learns about the kiss. Hope says that what matters is that they will be there for her mother. Back at the cabin Deacon assures Hope and Liam that he and Brooke didn't intend for this to happen. Liam doesn't want Deacon to support Brooke, but Hope defends her father by reminding Liam that he never revealed the truth to Ridge and it proves he didn't want to damage Brooke and Ridge's marriage.

While Hope was working at Forrester Creations Steffy found her to inform her that she knows about Brooke's indiscretion with Deacon and that she feels sorry for Hope for having a mother like Brooke. Hope reminded Steffy that she has no room to judge after her own past mistakes, but Steffy changed the topic back to Brooke and accused her of decades of similar behavior. Hope asked Steffy if she holds her father accountable for all of his indiscretions or does he get a pass. Steffy replied by saying that her father never claimed to be perfect, but when Hope asked if her mother even made such claims about herself, Steffy accused Brooke of being manipulative. Hope said that Ridge loves her mother, but Steffy replied that she wants her father to be with her mother, who "unlike Brooke is good for him".

Brooke is worried about Steffy and Thomas putting stuff in Ridge's head and tells Hope and Liam that she has to do something. Brooke asked Liam if he could do anything to help her and wanted him to go to Steffy's home and use visiting Kelly as an excuse. Brooke wanted Liam to speak to Ridge, but Hope tried to comfort her that Ridge won't be throwing their entire marriage away over the "drunk kiss". Brooke replied that he could and she doesn't want it to happen so she wants Liam to talk to her husband. Liam agrees to do it.

Brooke told Hope that Taylor has waited years for an opportunity like this and she will use this to get Ridge back. Hope reminded her mother that Ridge loves her. Brooke asked why is Ridge still at Steffy's if that's the case. Hope thought he might need to blow off some steam, but Brooke said that the more he is with Steffy, Thomas and Taylor the more chance there is that they will put pressure on him to leave her. Hope said that she feels partially responsible for what her she is going through, but Brooke blamed herself. Hope said that maybe she should have respected Ridge's wishes where Deacon is concerned, but Brooke didn't want Hope to feel guilty. Brooke told Hope that she sympathizes with her need to know her father because Stephen wasn't there when she was growing up either. Hope said that she will own her part in what has happened and then comforted her mother. Brooke started questioning why she defended Deacon to Ridge.

Hope continued encouraging her mother to fight for Ridge even when Brooke decided that she has to move on. After some days of doubt Brooke decided that she will fight for Ridge and said that she feels that outside forces had something to do with her relapse.

Dealing with Steffy's partial amnesia
Steffy and her husband Finn were shot. Finn died and Steffy was fighting for her life. Hope, Liam and Brooke were horrified when Deacon came over and informed them that he found the two in the alley of Il Giardino. Hope and Liam rushed to the hospital and they spoke to Steffy when she was in a coma. When Steffy woke up she remembered Liam as her husband and had no recollection of Finn or her son Hayes. Hope wasn't thrilled, but for some time she tried to be sensible and allow Liam to play along just as Steffy's mother had suggested. When Steffy told Hope to leave the room so she can be alone with her daughter and husband, it started being too much for Hope. She and Brooke spoke to Taylor about it, but she was adamant that Steffy's recovery is at stake. Hope mentioned Kelly who has to be confused why her mommy is calling Liam her husband and she also mentioned Hayes and the fact that Steffy could regain her memory someday. When Liam joined the conversation, he said that Hope's patience is super human. Taylor got annoyed and said that nobody will tell Steffy anything. Bridget joined them and Brooke asked her for her opinion on this. Bridget said that Steffy should remember on her own and that Bradley Baker is just questioning Steffy which may trigger her memory.

After a couple of days of recovery, Bridget said that because Steffy was doing much better, she thinks it would be ok to tell Steffy about Finn. Liam told Steffy about Finn with her mother, father, and brother in the room with them and she was shocked and then remembered Finn as the memories came flooding back except for the shooting itself and her overhearing the truth about what she did to Brooke that day before she confronted her in the alley. She had foggy recollections of the alley that night but couldn't remember clearly. Sheila followed them in the room as well which Steffy responded to her being present as "You again?". Steffy's memories of Finn came flooding back as she recalled their life together. Hope and Brooke still worried that Taylor and Steffy would take advantage of the situation and interfere, once again in Hope and Liam's marriage.

After being told that Finn was gone, Steffy continued leaning on Liam for support. Taylor told Brooke and Hope that she is happy that Liam is there for her daughter and said that Liam is bringing Steffy more comfort than anyone else. Hope felt very uncomfortable with this. When she and Liam went back home, Hope was happy that she would be able to spend some alone time with her husband, but soon Liam received a call from Kelly. She asked Liam to come over because her mommy was back at home. Liam couldn't say no to his daughter and went to check on her and Steffy. When Liam left, Hope and Brooke had a conversation about the situation. Hope confessed to her mother that she didn't feel good hearing Liam say that Steffy will always have a part of his heart. Thomas entered the house and overheard it. He told Hope that he hates to see her with a guy that has a divided heart, like his mom & Brooke has had to endure as well over the past few decades. Hope didn't let Thomas' words affect her and she continued to defend her husband. Soon Hope was able to spend a lot of quality time with Liam after Steffy took her children to Europe where she tried to mourn her husbands death. One day when Hope and Liam had some alone time Deacon visited them. While they spoke Brooke came home and told Deacon that he can't come to the property anymore because she wants to get her husband back. Hope was sad, but told Liam that she understands her mother. After that Hope and Liam had a passionate night at the cabin.

Finding out about an affair and Sheila escaping jail
When Hope was visiting her aunt Donna Logan she saw her and Eric Forrester kissing. Once Eric left Hope confronted Donna and reminded her that Eric is married to Quinn Forrester and that they are trying to work on their marriage. Hope was angry at first, but later Donna explained to her how much she loves Eric and asked Hope to not tell anyone about what she saw. Hope went to see Eric and told him that she knows about the affair he has with her aunt. She expressed that she is afraid that he might take advantage of Donna's feelings and she advised Eric to follow his heart and make a choice. Hope told Eric that he has to tell Quinn the truth and stay with her or start a life with Donna, but it's important to be honest. Eric told Hope that she's a wise woman and thanked her for all the advice. After going home Hope spoke to her husband Liam about Donna and Eric and how much she hates knowing the truth.

Li said that Sheila didn't show up, but she was lying as Sheila was standing right beside her as they spoke on the phone.
