4 Couples We Hope Make It to 2025 and 4 We Definitely Do Not

Happy endings are a rarity with soap couples. There’s always going to be drama to test relationships, whether it’s infidelity, secrets, or family turmoil. 2024 was a tough year for many couples, and as 2025 nears, it’ll be make-or-break time for some relationships. We’ll be rooting for a few pairings, but others we think are better off not together.

Bridge’s Destiny Is Revealed

Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) are destiny, but couple can’t stay together. They have a long-running habit of breaking up and reuniting on The Bold and the Beautiful. With Taylor (Rebecca Budig) back in town, and the couple arguing over Hope’s (Annika Noelle) role in the Forrester Creations takeover, a Bridge split is looming. Hopefully, this time their break up is permanent and they both realize it’s best to move on.

Hope And Carter: The Power Couple

B&B is establishing Hope and Carter as their new supercouple. Their romance came out of nowhere, and they’ve fallen quickly in love. The couple has become public enemy number one now that they’ve stolen Forrester Creations. They’ll have challenges ahead of them as they run the company and deal with payback from the Forresters. But if their love and commitment to each other is strong, they can survive anything.

Carly Makes A Decision About Brennan

Carly (Laura Wright) has been enjoying single life since her break up with Drew (Cameron Mathison) earlier this year. Although General Hospital teased a Carson reunion and a Jarly romance, there’s another man who’s captured her attention. Brennan (Charles Mesure) and Carly have been flirting from the moment he arrived in Port Charles. There’s definitely chemistry and Brennan has become Carly’s savior on several occasions. But their budding romance could be derailed when Carly spies on Brennan to learn about Valentin’s (James Patrick Stuart) whereabouts. Although Brennan will be angry, he might find it in his heart to give Carly another chance.

Kristina Comes Between Sonny And Natalia

Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Natalia (Eva LaRue) are one of GH’s most baffling pairings. The two became acquainted when their daughters Kristina (Kate Mansi) and Blaze (Jacqueline Grace Lopez) were dating. Unlike Sonny, Natalia wasn’t supportive of her daughter’s lifestyle and relationship. Family is important to Sonny, so the fact he’s with a woman prejudiced against his daughter is shocking. And it’s Kristina who could end her father’s new romance. A grief-stricken Kristina has suffered many losses this year with her baby and her breakup with Blaze. With her mind set on revenge, Natalia could be one of the people on her hit list. Since Natalia broke up her relationship with Blaze, Kristina will return the favor.

Johnny Seeks Chanel’s Forgiveness

Johnny (Carson Boatman) and Chanel (Raven Bowens) have had a tough year on Days of Our Lives. First, Chanel lost their baby; then Johnny cheated with Joy (AlexAnn Hopkins) after believing his wife was unfaithful. Johnny is keeping his infidelity a secret as he and Chanel try to start a family. But things aren’t going to be joyous when Johnny’s secret is exposed. He’ll have to do a lot of begging to a heartbroken Chanel, who’ll be conflicted. Although things don’t look good for the couple, a surprise miracle baby could help heal their broken relationship.

Alex And Stephanie Continue Their Runaround

Will they or won’t they? That’s what many Days fans are asking about Alex (Robert Scott Wilson) and Stephanie (Abigail Klein), who were on the verge of a reunion. The former couple reignited the flame this year, but because of their jobs, Body and Soul, Stephanie thought it best to slow things down. Any hope of a reunion is diminished since Alex is covering for Johhny and Joy’s affair, and Stephanie’s ex Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) is back in Salem. At this point, maybe it’s best if Alex and Stephanie were just friends.

Kyle And Claire: Y&R’s New Supercouple?

The Young and the Restless seems to have found its new supercouple in Kyle (Michael Mealor) and Claire (Hayley Erin). The bad boy businessman and the good girl slowly took their friendship to a romantic level. But as their relationship blossoms, they’ll face many issues from their families: the Abbotts and the Newmans. Also, Kyle’s ex-wife Summer (Allison Lanier) will be meddling in their relationship. However, this Romeo and Juliet storyline should end on a happy note for Kyaire.

Billy Breaks Sally’s Heart

Sally (Courtney Hope) and Billy (Jason Thompson) were heartbroken after Adam (Mark Grossman) and Chelsea’s (Melissa Claire Egan) affair. The two formed a friendship that soon turned passionate. Sally thinks she’s found her knight in shining armor, but she’ll soon get a glimpse of the real Billy. Much like Adam, Billy has his bad-boy ways, which include infidelity. With him and ex-girlfriend Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) working together, it could lead to more heartache for Sally.
