The Bold and the Beautiful Poll Results: Do You Like Steffy and Hope Better As Rivals or Friends?

When Hope first came back to Los Angeles and The Bold and the Beautiful over two years ago, she made every overture to her ex-rival Steffy to be friends. That, of course, didn’t last long and the two women became embroiled in a battle to win Liam’s heart!

The Bold and the Beautiful Polling

Now, Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and Hope (Annika Noelle) are cordial competitors but Steffy has (mostly) been hands-off with Liam especially now that Liam and Hope are together again.

Do you prefer the two women as allies or enemies? Soap Hub posed this question to BB fans. Read on for the results!

Cordial Corner

The majority of you prefer things to be the way they were most recently left off between the two women. Almost 58% of you say that you’d like the two women to be polite with one another. They don’t have to be as thick as thieves like I Love Lucy’s Lucy & Ethel, but you don’t want them at each other’s throats a la Alexis and Krystle on Dynasty!

Schlemiel! Schlimazel!

Almost 22% of you want Hope and Steffy to be BFF’s like Laverne & Shirley. Hope can move into the cliff house and she and Steffy can be gal pals. The two can go shopping, arrange play dates with their daughters, and talk about which habits of Liam’s drive them bananas! Steffy wanted her daughter Kelly to have a sister…maybe Steffy can have one in Hope?

You Bitch!

A small but vocal group — nearly 21% — say you enjoy the rivalry between the two and you’d like to see it continue. Sure, Liam and Hope are together, but that doesn’t mean he’s going to refrain from being Kelly’s dad.

Steffy, not that long ago, allowed herself to be a pawn in Thomas‘ (Matthew Atkinson) plan to break up Hope and Liam by planting a kiss on him. And Liam didn’t exactly immediately reject her advance. What’s going to happen next? Stay tuned to see! The Bold and the Beautiful airs weekdays on CBS. Check local listings for air times.
