By Amandah HancenOn Jan 6, 2026

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers are in for Wednesday, January 7, 2026. In today’s episode, Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda) is summoned.

Meanwhile, Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) and Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) are blindsided. Keep reading, and let’s talk about what is coming up in the CBS soap opera. (Make sure to check out our WEEKLY B&B spoilers, here!)

Sheila Carter Sharpe’s Summoning

Let’s start off with Sheila Carter Sharpe (Kimberlin Brown). The woman is ever so grateful to Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig). However, there is a lot that Sheila doesn’t know about Deacon Sharpe’s (Sean Kanan) therapy.

Sheila can definitely sense that Deacon is drifting away from her. However, for now, Sheila doesn’t seem to suspect Taylor.

Li Finnegan’s Advice

After talking to Taylor, Sheila will summon Li. Even though Li and Sheila aren’t exactly friends, they are building a slow bond.

Li was nice enough to tell Sheila she’s made positive strides and to keep going. If Sheila ends up losing Deacon, then she will need a solid friend by her side.

In the past, Sheila has opened up about wondering if Taylor is trying to steal her man. Li doubted that and mentioned what a professional Taylor is.

Sheila agreed and regretted making threats. So, I could see Li defending Taylor again and trying to assure Sheila.

Of course, it would be interesting if Li ends up finding out about Deacon and Taylor! That would put the doctor in a moral dilemma regarding Sheila, that’s for sure.

Steffy Forrester Finnegan’s Shocking News

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for tomorrow’s episode reveal that Steffy Forrester Finnegan (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) learned shocking news. The woman was told by Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) that she’s leaving for Paris.

Carter and Ridge are stunned by the news, and wonder what they can do to change the woman’s mind. It’s not money or a promotion that she wants, though.

Carter Walton Blindsided

That is likely what leads to Carter’s sudden marriage proposal in the weekly preview clip. Carter mentioned to Ridge that he felt that Daphne was creating distance.

However, Daphne told Steffy that she wants Carter to chase her and to know that she’s the only one in his heart.

So, Carter’s proposal just might make Daphne freeze. However, will it really solve the problem? Plus, their romance is still pretty new.

A knee-jerk marriage proposal isn’t really what Daphne wants. Will Carter even truly chase her the way she wants to be pursued?
