The Bold and the Beautiful Preview Week of August 31: Wife Explains, Darcy Arrives, Steffy QuestionedThe Bold and the Beautiful has released a preview clip for the week of August 31, 2026. It shows Katie Logan Spencer (Heather Tom) explaining herself.

Darcy Dylan (Kelly Sullivan) reunites with her daughter. Plus, Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) questions Steffy Forrester Finnegan (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood). Keep reading to find out what is coming up in the CBS soap opera.

Key Takeaways

Katie Logan Spencer Explains

Let’s start off with Katie, who will explain herself to Bill Spencer (Don Diamont). The woman was not satisfied with Melissa Dylan’s (Sydney Bullock) answers. So, then the woman demanded to meet Dylan’s mother. 

While Darcy is on her way to Los Angeles, Katie explains her confrontation. The lady says that she wants to meet the woman who raised Dylan.

Katie thinks she can get answers on what kind of woman Dylan is by looking at her mother. 

Darcy Dylan Arrives

We saw Darcy in the Thursday, August 27 episode. On that day, Dylan called her mother after Katie’s confrontation. The girl asked her mother to come to Los Angeles, and the lady agreed.

However, it seems that Darcy and Dylan might not be as close as the girl claimed. After all, when Darcy picked up the phone, she immediately asked if Dylan was pregnant. So, that says a lot right there.

We will see Darcy arrive in L.A. However, Dylan doesn’t pick her mother up at the airport. Instead, Darcy shows up at Bikini Bar and hugs her daughter. 


Secrets & Shenanigans

The Bold and the Beautiful preview also shows that Dylan has to update her mother on a few things. The girl says there is something Darcy should know. The look on Darcy’s face is priceless. The lady knows it can’t be good news! 

Will she inform Darcy that her boyfriend is the recent ex of her former best friend? Or will she tell her mother about being homeless? I don’t think Darcy knows about that.

I remember Dylan begging Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) and Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) not to alert her parents as they didn’t know.

Steffy Forrester Finnegan Questioned

Over at the office, Carter questions Steffy about if she told her husband the truth. It doesn’t sound like she has, and the guilt is going to eat her alive. 

Finally, we have a scene of Steffy with her back turned to John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan). Steffy says they have all done things they regret, and need to find a way forward.

However, will Finn realize that this isn’t about Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown), but someone else?
