Biography

Kelly is the first born child of Liam Spencer and Steffy Forrester. She has a younger maternal half-brother Hayes Forrester Finnegan, a deceased older brother Aspen Forrester-Spencer and also a younger paternal half-sister Elizabeth “Beth” Spencer. Kelly was named after her late grandmother, Kelly Hopkins.

Conception

Kelly was conceived during her parents marriage, but her mother Steffy Forrester wasn't sure who is her father. The two candidates were Liam Spencer and his father Bill Spencer Jr. as Steffy had sex with the both of them within 24 hours. Steffy and Liam were happy, but their issue was that Liam was helping Sally Spectra II to get back at Liam's father who destroyed her career. Steffy wasn't happy that Liam is trying to help this woman as she once stole designs from her family company. Steffy and Liam's father were on one team. Steffy wanted the two of them to work it out. Liam almost died with Sally after an explosion. When they were buried in rubble Sally told Liam that she loves him. He gave her a kiss. Luckily the two were saved. Liam told Sally that he wants to be with his wife forever and he said that she must find out. When Steffy heard about the "dying kiss" she was furious and told Liam that he disgusts her before walking out on him. She cried at her grandfather's guest house when Liam's father appeared and the two started had sex. Steffy was horrified when she woke up and realized that she has betrayed her husband with his own father over a kiss and she ran straight home. Liam saw that Steffy was very emotional, but he thought that it was because she's still sad over his kiss with Sally. The two of them ended up renewing their vows and having sex which resulted in a pregnancy however Steffy wasn't sure if Liam or his father was the father of her baby. The paternity test revealed that he was so Steffy calmed down and started being excited about their future. Her happiness didn't last long as Liam found the paternity test and left when Steffy confessed that had she slept with his father.

Early childhood (2018-)

When Kelly was conceived her parents were happily married, but when Kelly was born their marriage had been annulled. Once Kelly appeared in their lives they decided to get back together for her sake. Liam moved back in & they got engaged however there was a twist. Liam's ex fiance Hope Logan was pregnant with his child. Hope and Liam were engaged when Steffy and Liam were torn apart due to Steffy's one night stand with Liam's father and Kelly's grandfather Bill Spencer Jr. and due to Bill's schemes after the betrayal. Steffy was heartbroken when she found out that during Hope and Liam's short engagement they conceived a child, but she said that they have to be there for Hope and her baby as a married couple. While Steffy wanted to marry Liam he said that he is in no position to get married as he still doesn't know what Hope's pregnancy means for them. While Liam was torn between the two women and told his brother Wyatt Spencer that he doesn't know who he will choose, Steffy was sure that she would be the one that Liam would choose and she said gloated about it to Hope and assured her little daughter about it as well. During a fashion show for Hope For The Future line, Liam was overcome by his love for Hope and he kissed her in the dressing room. Steffy, who was warned by Bill that something is going on between Hope and Liam went to Forrester Creations and caught the two kissing. She was livid and decided to pay a visit to Bill Spencer. She agreed to marry him under one condition- he will give her his FC shares. Liam was looking for Steffy and when she arrived home, she informed Liam about her and Bill. Liam pleaded with Steffy not to marry his father for the sake of their daughter, but she said that she is not an option anymore. Liam declared his love for Hope and got engaged to her. Bill prepared a beautiful nursery for Kelly and showed it to Steffy, but she changed her mind and said she can't marry him. Bill was emotional and decided to give Steffy his FC shares anyway. Steffy became a single mother to Kelly, but she gained more control in her family's company. When she came to work, she decided to put Hope's line on the backburner and she started her own Intimates line instead.

Liam married Hope and while they were waiting for the birth of their baby girl Kelly saw her father during visitations. One day Kelly got high fever so Steffy called Liam and informed him about it. Hope and Liam were about to travel, but instead Hope traveled alone and Liam was supposed to check on Kelly and arrive later. When Hope arrived on Catalina Island, she went into premature labor. Liam couldn't go to the island due to sudden weather change. The only open clinic had only one available doctor Reese Buckingham. He had gambling debts and thugs told him that if he doesn't give them the money back they will hurt his daughter Zoe Buckingham. Reese knew that Steffy wanted to adopt a sister for Kelly and that her mother Taylor Hayes was willing to pay any amount for the adoption so when Hope passed out during labor he stole the healthy baby girl and exchanged her with a body of a dead child of another patient. When Hope was awake, she saw a sad Liam who informed her that their daughter had died. Steffy got a chance to adopt a beautiful baby girl. Reese asked 250k for the adoption. Taylor was surprised by the amount, but since money was not an issue for her she decided to pay. For eight months, Beth Spencer lived with Steffy and Kelly and they had no clue that she is Kelly's biological sister. Hope and Liam both felt close to the child. Hope decided to annul her marriage to Liam and convinced him to live with Steffy and the girls. Beth, who was named Phoebe by Steffy, was called by that for the first 8 months of her life but after the whole scheme was exposed, Steffy was forced to give the child up and had to give her back to Hope and Liam. Liam went back to Hope and Kelly again was living alone with her mother.

After some time, Steffy was in an accident and got addicted to pain medication. Steffy went to rehab and Kelly stayed with Liam, Hope, Beth and her cousin Douglas Forrester while her mother was getting help. When Steffy finished rehab and returned and was overjoyed to see Kelly and soon Steffy's ER doctor Finn Finnegan became a frequent guest at their home. Finn was very much in love with Steffy and was taking good care of Kelly even after he found out that Steffy cheated on Liam Spencer and then Steffy lied to him that Hope cheated on him with Thomas Forrester. Steffy discovered that she was pregnant and had to take a paternity test because she had slept with Liam at the same time she had sex with Finn. When the results came back and Steffy heard that the baby belongs to Liam, she felt bad and wanted to run away with Kelly to Paris because she felt like Finn would start resenting her, but it came out that the test results were not correct because Vincent Walker messed with them wanting to help Thomas Forrester to get a chance with Hope Logan. Finn proposed to Steffy and they went on a trip with Kelly to celebrate. After their son Hayes Finnegan was born they got married. Kelly had a new baby brother and a loving step father until Finn's psychotic mother accidentally shot him while trying to shot Steffy. After losing her step father Kelly saw her mother at the hospital, but she was the only child that Steffy remembered as she didn't remember Finn and their baby boy Hayes. Once Steffy regained her memory she mourned Finn. After listening to her mother's advice, Steffy took Kelly and Hayes to Europe to spend some time away from her house that was full of memories of Finn. Happily for Kelly and her little brother Hayes, Finn was really alive and soon was reunited with them. Kelly was very happy to have her step father back and soon they all went back to their home in Los Angeles together.

Sheila faked her own death by cutting her finger off. The police came to a conclusion that she was mauled by a bear however Finn discovered that the finger was cut too perfectly and it couldn't be done by a wild animal. Sheila was hiding at the home of her romantic interest Deacon Sharpe. One day Kelly's mother recognized Sheila. The police was after her, but Bill Spencer Jr. told Steffy and Finn not to testify or else he will go to the police and tell them that Taylor Hayes shot him years before. Steffy was shocked when she heard that Bill is in love with Sheila. She had no idea that Bill is just pretending so he could get a confession out of Sheila. Bill's home was bugged and when she confessed to murder the FBI arrested her and Sheila landed in jail. For some time things seemed to work out for Kelly's family. Kelly's father, Liam Spencer, expressed his desire to go back to her mother after he caught his wife Hope Logan kissing Thomas Forrester however Steffy rejected him and said that she is happy in her marriage to Finn. After Sheila won the case in court, Liam saw Finn and Sheila in an embrace and he informed Steffy about it. She was horrified, but she said that she does trust her husband and she knows that he will protect her, Kelly and Hayes. The same day Finn and Kelly were playing at the beach when Finn got a call from work. He asked Kelly to stay in one place while he turned his back on her and spoke on the phone. After some time Kelly decided to go into the ocean and started drowning. Luckily Sheila Carter was stalking Finn and Kelly and she saw Steffy's daughter drowning. Sheila ran to help Kelly and saved her life. Once safe, Kelly learned that Sheila is Finn's mother.
