Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers August 21: Steffy’s Showdown with Hope

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for August 21 preview that Steffy is reeling from the news that Hope kissed Finn at the Foresters’ party and must make a hard decision about her marriage. Then, she confronts Hope. Will Steffy be a whirlwind of fury or cold and calculating? This is a confrontation you don’t want to miss.

A Big Betrayal

Finn (Tanner Novlan) completely blindsided Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) when he revealed that Hope (Annika Noelle) cornered and kissed him at the party. Steffy knew she didn’t trust Hope, but she didn’t think her rival would be so bold and disrespectful.

You could see that Steffy was having difficulty envisioning Hope’s lips touching her husband’s. She wasn’t so sure what Finn’s response was and whether he actually kissed her back. Finn will do his best to reassure Steffy that the kiss was unwanted and that he didn’t enjoy it. Still, Steffy will likely feel that this would never have happened if Finn hadn’t become too friendly with Hope in the first place.

The Next Move

Steffy will need a moment or two to process this shocking development before deciding what to do. First, she reportedly makes a hard decision about her marriage to Finn. Does this mean she wants to separate?

Next, she moves on to Hope. Lord knows, Hope was already treading on thin ice at Forrester Creations. The success of Brooke’s Bedroom boosted the company and saved her faltering line, Hope for the Future — but that was before Steffy learned of Hope’s ultimate betrayal.

Will Steffy fire Hope? She could. Will Steffy slap Hope? She sure would. Will Steffy make Hope regret she ever laid eyes on Finn? Perhaps she should.
