What Happened Previously on B&B?
Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) was surprised when Li (Naomi Matsuda) told her that she has premature ovarian insufficiency. The condition is the reason why she and Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) have had difficulty conceiving. It also explains Daphne’s night sweats as the symptoms mirror perimenopause.
Starting a family has been a priority for the newlyweds. Daphne confided in Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) that Carter really wants a child. Being her best friend, Steffy acknowledged that Daphne does, too. Trying for a baby and being unsuccessful has been hard on Daphne.
At Forrester, every line has been put on hold as the company figures out its next steps. FC had originally seen their couture collection as Eric’s (John McCook) comeback. But with Logan receiving rave reviews for Hope (Annika Noelle) and Deke’s (Harrison Cone) debut at the fashion house, FC wants to return with a vengeance. They just don’t know how that’s going to happen.
Will (Crew Morrow) also doesn’t know what the future holds for him. Electra (Laneya Grace) moved out. He’s been distressed since she left him. Will’s been carrying a lot of guilt over not telling Electra about Logan’s plans. Though his family and Dylan (Sydney Bullock) have told him it was business, he’s afraid he’s lost the woman he loves.
