Liam and Hope get engaged; however, she wanted to use this as a way to promote her fashion line, so their wedding was planned for months ahead. Unhappy with Hope wanting to wait to consummate their relationship after marriage, Liam becomes closer to Steffy after he saved her from drowning. Hope focuses more on her work than Liam. Neglected, he kisses Steffy. After witnessing the kiss, Hope takes off her engagement ring and leaves it at Liam's house. Heartbroken, Liam takes the ring and proposes to Steffy, who accepts. Liam and Steffy travel to [[Aspen]], where they are married. Hope later begins flirtation with her step-brother, [[Thomas Forrester]]. They share a kiss despite Hope's unresolved feelings for Liam. While on holiday in [[Mexico]], Thomas proposes to Hope and she briefly acknowledges that she might not be ready at the time, but someday her answer may be different and something may happen for them; she then kisses Thomas and says 'I feel safe with you'. Liam and Steffy are staying at the same resort, and once Liam finds out, he goes after Thomas and Hope on a dirt-bike chase. Steffy gets injured after she fell off her bike trying to get to Liam. |

Liam confesses his love for Hope and tells Hope he plans to leave Steffy. But Bill pays off a MRI tech to switch Steffy's scans with another patient, leading Liam to believe that if Steffy gets upset in any way, a blood clot could explode, causing her to have a stroke and die. Upon receiving such information, Liam decides to stay with his wife while she recovers, leaving Hope devastated. Katie, who is suspicious of her daughter-in-law's sudden health revelations, decides to do her own research. She takes the MRI scans to her own doctor, who reveals the scans are that of someone who has a blood clot, but was not Steffy. Katie then confronts Bill and promises that she will tell Liam the truth. Bill, feeling threatened, locks Katie up in a tower to keep her from ruining his plans. Bill then goes to see Steffy and Liam and reveals that Steffy's blood clot had dissolved itself. Liam, relieved and happy for Steffy, has no idea what's going on until Katie arrives. Having freed herself from the tower, she tells Liam that Bill and Steffy had been trying to keep him away from Hope. |

Liam, feeling gutted and betrayed, immediately leaves to find Hope. He finds her on the rooftop where he proposed to her and tells her that he loves her and that he wants to be with her to give their initial relationship a true chance without manipulations. When they later confront Bill with what they know and what they want from him, Bill refuses to give in, reminding Liam that Steffy is his wife and that he doesn't support his attempt to reunite with Hope. Liam, however, does not take that as an answer, making up his mind that his marriage to Steffy is over. Despite her pleading that they can get through this rough patch, Liam ends his relationship with Steffy and chooses to be with Hope. After she leaves, Liam goes outside where Hope is and reveals his left hand, which has no wedding ring on it. Brooke, worried that Steffy may try to pull a scheme to keep Liam, arranges for a wedding for Hope and Liam in her home, convinced that her son Rick would seduce Steffy into signing the annulment papers. Steffy refuses, and demands a full, legal divorce. Fearing again that Steffy would somehow scheme Liam into staying with her, Brooke insists that Hope spend the night with Liam, to 'take the power away' from Steffy by giving Liam her virginity. The night did not go as well as Hope had wished, and she ended up traumatized. Brooke showed up early the next morning to see how the night went and found Hope in tears, and immediately took her to a sex therapist to 'please Liam' so that she wouldn't lose him to Steffy. |

Hope Logan (formerly Spencer) is a fictional character from the CBS Daytime soap opera, The Bold and the Beautiful. The character was portrayed by many child actors and actresses since Hope's birth in 2002, most notably Rachel and Amanda Pace.
She was portrayed by Kim Matula from January 11, 2010 to her departure on December 12, 2014. The character was dramatically aged.[1] Hope is the result of an affair between Brooke Logan and Deacon Sharpe, Brooke's ex-son-in-law.
Her main storylines as an adult have revolved around relationships with half-brothers, Liam Spencer and Wyatt Spencer, a rivalry (re-creating the rivalry between her mother and Dr Taylor Hayes) with Steffy Forrester. She was also briefly involved with Oliver Jones and Thomas Forrester.
Casting
Between the years of 2002 and 2009, the character was played by child actresses, and appeared as a young girl around 5 years old by 2007. On December 4, 2009, it was announced that Hope was to be dramatically aged and portrayed by Kim Matula. Matula signed on as a contract character. Matula began taping The Bold and the Beautiful on November 19, 2009 and made her first appearance on January 11, 2010. On November 5, 2014, it was announced that after five years with the series, Matula would be departing the series.[2] Matula taped her final scene on November 6[3] and made her final appearance on December 12.[4][5] In March 2015, Soap Opera Digest reported news that Matula would make a return to the series, in a guest appearance as Hope. She is set to report to set on March 4, 2015.[6] Matula returned on-screen as Hope via a Skype video chat on April 17.[7][8]
Characterization
The young adult character of Hope was first described as "A polar opposite of what her mother Brooke once was, Hope makes no secret of her more traditional and reserved views on sex and marriage".[9] Matula has described Hope as "Unlucky in love".[10] Speaking about the character's dramatic aging and her storyline, head writer Bradley Bell stated: "Aging the character of ‘Hope’ to a teenager allows us to bring the next generation of ‘Logans’ to the forefront, as well as play a broader range of the ‘Forrester’ vs. ‘Logan’ story. ‘Hope’s’ presence at Forrester Creations, as well as in ‘Brooke’ and ‘Ridge’s’ home, sparks an intense competition between ‘Hope’ and her step-sister ‘Steffy’ as well as creates new conflict between long-time rivals ‘Brooke’ and ‘Taylor’ as each woman is determined to protect her own daughter."[11]
Storylines
Hope was conceived during an affair between Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan). At the time, Deacon was married to Hope's half-sister, Bridget Forrester. Hope was born at the Big Bear Cabin. Deacon signed off on his paternal rights in 2007 when RJ and Hope were taken from Brooke when she was proven to be an unfit mother by Social Services, reported by Stephanie Forrester (Susan Flannery). Nick Marone (Jack Wagner) was also a father figure for Hope when he was married to Brooke.
Hope is almost raped by a photographer by the name of Graham Derros. Nick and Aggie Jones save her from being raped. At high school (approaching graduation soon), she met a boy Oliver Jones, a DJ.
