Daphne Leans on a Friend
During lunch at Forrester Creations, Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) told Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) that she had to check in with her doctor. Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) briefly entered the office and overheard their conversation.
He volunteered to take Daphne to her doctor’s appointment. But Daphne told Carter to go to his meeting. She assured him that she would be fine. After speaking to Steffy, Daphne looked at her phone. She realized that she was going to be late for her appointment. Steffy offered to drive her there. They could get through the carpool lane.
Meanwhile, Li (Naomi Matsuda) and Finn (Tanner Novlan) had a conversation in his office about Steffy and Sheila (Kimberlin Brown). He didn’t expect to see his wife show up with Daphne.
Daphne’s Baby Dreams Dashed
Finn excused himself because he had patients he needed to see. Li informed Daphne that she was consulting with her doctor. Daphne said that Steffy is her best friend and she could speak freely in front of her. Li wanted to get right to the appointment because she had bad news.
She informed Daphne that she was suffering from premature menopause, known as premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). Daphne wondered if she was infertile.
She informed Li that she and Carter had been trying for a baby. Daphne begged Li not to tell her that this was happening to her. Unfortunately, her worst nightmare has become her reality.
What’s Next For Daphne and Carter?
This wasn’t the news that Daphne was anticipating. She was hoping to get a clean bill of health from her doctor. But now her dreams of having a family with Carter have been shattered. The couple has been actively trying for months to have a baby.
They bonded over their desire to start a family, and now that might not even happen. Of course, Daphne and Carter have other options, such as adoption.
This news could test their marriage, which is still new. When Daphne fears that she can’t offer Carter the love he wants, she tends to run back to Paris. What is next for the newlyweds? Are their family dreams dashed for good? Or will they get a miracle?
