The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers: Carter Faces Four Devastating Losses As Surrogacy Secret Explodes

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers and updates reveal that Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) has been battling anxiety under the weight of mounting pressure—but he has no one to blame but himself.

Carter should never have taken this deceptive surrogacy scheme involving Steffy Forrester Finnegan (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) any further.

It seems destined to end in heartache.

Key Takeaways

• Carter could lose Daphne and his marriage
• Ridge may end his friendship with Carter
• Carter could lose his position at Forrester Creations
• A paternity twist could reveal Finn is the father
• Carter’s surrogacy deception could cost him everything

Number One-Carter Could Lose Daphne And His Marriage

Everything suggests Carter may be headed for four devastating losses, so let’s take a closer look at the pain that could be waiting for him.

Steffy will undoubtedly endure plenty of heartbreak of her own, but for now, let’s focus on the ways this surrogacy plot could specifically blow up in Carter’s face.

First, he could lose Daphne Rose Walton (Murielle Hilaire)—and his marriage.

Daphne believes Carter is a devoted husband who puts her above everything else.

She can’t even imagine that he would betray her, which will make the truth all the more painful when it finally comes out.

Daphne Will Be Devastated

Daphne will have to face the devastating news that Carter was with her close friend just hours after she walked away from him.

Carter may have believed Daphne was breaking up with him and returning to Paris, but he wasted no time turning to Steffy.

Worse still, he and Steffy invented the surrogacy story to conceal what really happened, leaving Daphne with an even more painful betrayal to process.

After so much deceit, it’s hard to imagine her standing by Carter.

Their marriage may be headed for divorce.

As previously reported, Steffy’s unexpected pregnancy could change Carter and Daphne’s future.

Number Two And Number Three-Carter’s Friendship With Ridge Dies, Carter Loses His Job

Number two, Carter’s friendship with Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) could be over.

B&B fans watched Ridge explode when he heard the news about the surrogacy.

Just imagine his reaction when he discovers how Carter and Steffy’s baby was actually conceived; Ridge may feel so betrayed that there’s no way to repair their friendship.

Losing his best friend would be another crushing blow for Carter—and yet another source of heartbreak in this tangled situation.

Number three, Carter could also find himself without a job and pushed out of Forrester Creations once the truth comes to light; if Ridge refuses to keep Carter in his life as a friend, he probably won’t want him lingering around the office, either.

Carter may end up unemployed on top of everything else he’s going through, leaving him to suffer both personally and professionally.

Meanwhile, Carter’s wild baby scheme has already raised concerns about how far he is willing to go.

Number Four-Carter Could Lose His Chance To Be A Father, Due To A Paternity Twist

Number four, Carter could lose the baby if a paternity twist changes everything.

It’s still too soon to know exactly how this storyline will reach its climax, but there’s a strong possibility Steffy is mistaken about who fathered the child.

The show may have held back DNA evidence so it can deliver a surprise and reveal that the baby is actually John “Finn” Finnegan’s (Tanner Novlan).

If that’s the case, Carter may have carried out his secretive plan for nothing; in the end, he might not even have a child to raise if the baby turns out to be Finn’s.

Related Bold and the Beautiful spoilers about Steffy’s surrogacy cover-up have also raised questions about the baby’s paternity.

Ultimately, The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers hint that Carter could lose Daphne, Ridge, his place at Forrester, his chance to build a family, and much more—so don’t miss the drama as it unfolds.

Annemarie’s Take

Carter has really backed himself into a corner with this surrogacy scheme, and I don’t see how he gets out of it without someone getting hurt.

Daphne’s heartbreak will be bad enough, but losing Ridge’s friendship and his career could make things even worse. And if Finn turns out to be the baby’s father, Carter may discover that all his lies were for nothing!
