Why Did Liam Let Hope Get Away?
The turning point for Hope (Annika Noelle) and Liam’s (Scott Clifton) marriage was her growing desire for Thomas (Matthew Atkinson). She fantasized about him every time she was with Liam.
The two kissed in Rome, leading Liam to kiss Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), even though she’s happily married to Finn (Tanner Novlan). The two agreed to never share their secret with anyone.
Hope always felt that Liam loved Steffy more than her. She was tired of his waffling ways and undivided heart. Hope realized what it’s like to be loved by a man who’s committed to only her.
Meanwhile, Liam was tired of Thomas’ constant efforts to destroy their marriage in one way or another. He agreed to a divorce despite Hope’s pleas to reconcile.
Is Third Time the Charm for Lope?
Hope and Liam are getting married for the third time on the December 11 episode. Deacon (Sean Kanan) wanted to talk to Liam before the wedding. Liam assured him that he would never let Hope slip through his fingers again.
He promised to love and cherish her for the rest of his days. Liam and Hope were reunited after his health scare. He thought he was dying from brain cancer, but it turned out to be a long con.
That’s when Liam and Hope realized they still had lingering feelings for one another. Up to this point, Hope was in a serious relationship with Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor). Her relationship with Thomas didn’t work despite the passion they shared.
She couldn’t fully commit to Thomas because of his past. He caused Hope and Liam a lot of pain, especially when it came to their daughter, Beth (Jordyn Lynn Ariza).
While Hope accepted Carter’s proposal, she still dragged her feet on the wedding planning. She didn’t want to rush down the aisle. Hope realized that Carter wasn’t the one for her.
What’s Next for Liam and Hope?
The two will exchange vows on Thursday’s episode. Will they finally get their happy ending? Since Steffy is happy with Finn, she’s no longer a factor in their relationship.
However, that doesn’t mean their marriage won’t be without its share of drama. B&B teased Atkinson’s return, and Thomas’ surprise comeback could throw the couple off course and force them to face their difficult past.
