Scott Clifton plays everyone’s favorite waffler, Liam, on The Bold and the Beautiful. For years, the handsome Spencer has had women fighting over him, and he’s left many broken hearts. But there is one special person whom Liam loves the most.
Key Takeaways
- Liam Spencer has been in a love triangle with Hope Logan and Steffy Forrester for years.
- He’s married both women and has children with them.
- Lope and Steam fans always argue over whether Hope or Steffy is Liam’s true love.
Who Does Liam Love?
Liam’s two main love interests have and always will be Hope (Annika Noelle) and Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood). For the past 15 years, he waffled between the two women, sparking one of B&B’s famous love triangles.
The never-ending love triangle ignited a war between Lope and Steam fans. Many believe Hope is his greatest love, while others consider Steffy the better woman for him. So, who is Liam’s greatest love?
Clifton answered the question in a recent interview with Swooon. “Himself, clearly!” the actor joked about who his character loved the most. All kidding aside, the actor discussed the iconic love triangle that made him a leading man. Like fans, Clifton is curious about the answer and recalls B&B executive producer Brad Bell’s response.
“I asked him, ‘Is the endgame Hope or Steffy?’ He smiled and said, ‘There is no endgame! It goes on forever,'” Clifton explained. “So, that’s what we do! If you think about characters as magnetic poles, you’re going to have characters, like Ridge and Brooke, who always get pulled back together.”
Circling Back to Lope
The Liam/Hope/Steffy triangle ended when Steffy married Finn (Tanner Novlan). With Steffy out of the picture, Hope and Liam were finally able to be together. However, Lope’s marriage faced many challenges, including another split.
Hope went on to have relationships with Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) and, most recently, Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor). Yet, she’s found herself once again back in Liam’s orbit.
Liam’s “brain tumor” scare had Hope’s feelings for her ex-husband reemerging. Hope ended her engagement to Carter and reunited with Liam. With Lope planning another walk down the aisle, it seems everything’s going smoothly for the couple.
However, if Steffy were to suddenly find herself single again, it would be a different story for Lope. Liam will realize Steffy is “the one” and decide he wants to be with her. His indecisiveness will cause more pain for Hope as she realizes Liam’s not as committed to her as she is to him.
