Bold And The Beautiful POLL: Now That Phoebe Is Gone What Does Steffy’s Future Hold? Vote Now!

Steffy Forrester’s (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) pain is real on ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’. Of course her loss isn’t the same as when Hope Spencer (Annika Noelle) and Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) were maliciously told by Doctor Reese Buckingham (Wayne Brady) that their daughter was stillborn on Catalina Island.

Hope later became a Forrester when she married Steffy’s brother, Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson), without knowing that he was part of a group that was furthering the Phoebe Forrester ruse. As everyone now knows, Phoebe never existed.

Without Steffy agreeing to adopt the baby, who she instantly fell in love with, in an apparently legal adoption that her mother, Taylor Hayes (Hunter Tylo), paid a quarter million dollars to make happen, there’s no way to know what would have become of Beth. Now, with the reveal having happened, what path will Steffy take forward?

Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Loss of Family Hurts Steffy Forrester Deeply

Liam was deeply affected by the sight of Steffy crying as he, Hope, and Brooke Logan Forrester (Katherine Kelly Lang) took Beth out of the cliff house. Steffy tearfully asked Liam about their family, meaning the former Phoebe, Kelly Spencer (Zoe Pennington and Allison Marcia Sweeney), and what may have been a reforming ‘Steam’.

That’s the issue, really. Steffy openly gave of her heart and then allowed Liam to return to the home where this formerly married couple lived. In return all she was hoping for was time to see if their relationship could spark, as they raised two daughters.

Unless B&B drops a second baby shoe, Kelly is Liam’s biological daughter. Viewers can only assume that Steffy is her mother and that a baby swap didn’t occur at some point after Kelly’s birth.

Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Steam Will Be Liam Spencer’s Second Family

As long as Kelly is Steffy and Liam’s child, then ‘Steam’ will be a family. But this trio will be Liam’s secondary consideration for the immediate future.

It’s natural that he needs to be with Hope and Beth right now. It’s incredible that ‘Lope’s’ baby is still alive and was in plain sight since she was born at the beginning of this year. Hope and Liam have earned this bonding time, which appears to be leading to a reversal of their marriage annulment.

All of the above implies that Steffy will raising Kelly on her own indefinitely. The abrupt change is that Kelly will no longer be living with the girl who was intended to be her adopted sister. Instead, Beth is actually Kelly’s half-sister and will remain part of her life, as well as Steffy’s.

Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Will Steffy Forrester Choose Herself Again?

Steffy and Liam’s various romantic connections haven’t endured. Last summer Steffy decided that she was choosing herself in distancing herself from Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) and letting go of Liam.

Clifton’s character returned to Hope after Steffy told him to do so. Wood’s character’s advice also coerced ‘Lope’ to remarry. Those choices left Steffy on her own where she is again.

Coming to accept the renewed status quo would allow Steffy to avoid the risk of heartbreak by remaining alone and raising her child. Allowing some time to digest all that’s happened will likely spur resilience and eventually allow Steffy to find love again. But those two paths aren’t the only ones that could be taken, as this is daytime in the fictional version of Los Angeles, California.
