The Bold and the Beautiful Recap (BB): Romance, Harsh Realities, and An Epic Breakdown!

The Bold and the Beautiful recap (BB) for Friday, June 22 features a day of of puppy love, broken hearts, and disturbing breakdowns.

A small romantic gesture brought Emma (Nia Sioux) and Xander (Adain Bradley) closer together when he presented her with a single daisy. The sweet move had Emma melting and it looks like the crush is completely mutual.

Emma couldn’t be more thankful for Xander’s friendship. Without him sticking up for her she may not even have a job. The duo promised to always have each others back and sealed their pact with a kiss!

Hope Made Liam An Offer
Over in the main office, Liam (Scott Clifton) and Hope (Annika Noelle) rehashed their breakup and how to best move forward.

They both agreed avoidance isn’t an option and they need to face his life with Steffy head on. There will always be feelings between them but they can’t hide from each other forever.

The talk led Hope to invite Liam back on her team. He was flattered, of course, but wanted to run it all by Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) first. She’s the mother of his child and soon to be his wife so her opinion on him being so close to his ex matters.

The Mother oF All Tantrums
Taylor (Hunter Tylo) paid her first visit since the baby’s birth but she wasn’t really there to see her granddaughter.

Instead she spent her time ranting and raving about shooting Bill. Her mad ramblings became a huge cause for concern for Steffy who could see her mother is clearly going over the deep end.

Taylor’s meltdown over even the prospect of going to jail led Steffy to put a halt to her wedding plans, at least for now. Through tears, she told Liam she needed more time to sort their life out before they take their vows.

A Fabulous Fantasy
Over at SP, Bill (Don Diamont) daydreamed about the life he’ll soon have if he gets his way. He and Steffy would become a powerhouse couple in the corporate world and he’ll have everything he ever wanted. OK, Bill.
