In the February 5 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Liam found out that Eric is Katie’s new designer. He was sworn to secrecy. However, that could be a challenge for him as Hope wants in on this information.
Key Takeaways
- Liam learned that Eric is Katie’s lead designer.
- He was sworn to secrecy, not even telling his wife, Hope.
- Liam is not the best person at keeping secrets.
What Happened on B&B
Liam (Scott Clifton) ended up at the wrong place, at the wrong time. He barged into Katie (Heather Tom) and Bill’s (Don Diamont) conversation with Eric (John McCook). He was just asking them not to tell anyone that he was designing for Katie.
Liam walked into that part of the conversation. He learned that Eric was the lead designer, which immediately put him in a difficult situation. He just left Hope (Annika Noelle), who was already pressuring him to give her the 411.
Bill reminded Liam that he can’t say a word to anyone about Eric being Logan’s lead designer. But the problem is that Liam is terrible at keeping secrets. He also said he doesn’t like keeping secrets from Hope, but that never stopped him before when he betrayed her.
Why It Matters: Liam Could Betray Hope’s Trust
Liam had promised Hope that they would remain neutral in the Logan-Forrester feud. But they’re already dragged into this fight, whether they want to admit it or not. They will have to choose a side, and that side will be with their respective families.
Hope already sided with Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) on this matter. She told Liam that Forrester helped create the “Logan” name that made her mom famous. She also agreed with Brooke that Katie was creating something out of nothing.
The fashion world isn’t familiar with The Logans. Most of their association has been with The Forresters. As for Liam, he supports Katie’s fashion house no matter what. He also helped her secure the trademark.
The Fallout: Serious Rift At Forrester
Liam’s words to Bill foretold a serious fallout. He believed the news of Eric being Logan’s lead designer could cause serious rifts at Forrester. Soon enough, everyone will be fighting each other amid the fashion wars.
Hope and Liam won’t have the option to be Switzerland in this matter. If Hope finds out that Liam is keeping this secret from her, she could see this as a betrayal. As for Liam, he’s just looking out for his family’s best interests.
His conversations with Hope and Brooke are only going to get tougher. Liam looked uncomfortable while they chatted about Eric. Will he be able to keep this secret? Or will he spill all?
