The Bold and the Beautiful recap for January 4-8, 2021, features Hope experience yet another one of Liam’s betrayals, and the launching of a brand new romantic pairing.

The Bold and the Beautiful Recap Highlights

While Hope (Annika Noelle) sat with Thomas (Mark Grossman) and praised how far she and Liam (Scott Clifton) had come since Mannequingate, her “poor, loving, devoted,” hubby was busy learning that he might be welcoming a new child into the world.

Sure, Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) couldn’t SWEAR that he was the father. But it’s a very real possibility. And that put the exes in an equally-sticky predicament. Should or should they not come clean about their night of passion? Liam voted for the former; Steffy pushed for the latter.

Then, a stirring speech about honesty, and her own opinion that Finn (Tanner Novlan) should know if he is raising his own baby or Liam’s, changed Steffy’s mind. So Liam set off for his and Hope’s storybook cottage and Steffy sat waiting for Finn to make his appearance.

And while Steffy stalled the inevitable, Liam began to make his confession. But first, he wanted to make sure Hope understood WHY he made the mistake that he made. The more he talked, the more anxious Hope became. Then Liam mentioned heading for Steffy’s house on that fateful night.

And suddenly it all fell into place. “You and Steffy? … You and Steffy? YOU AND STEFFY?!” Yep, Liam and Steffy.

Sister Dearest

A befuddled Paris (Diamond White) did her damndest to understand why Zoe (Kiara Barnes) was so dead set against her joining the Forrester Creations staff, but all Zoe offered in way of explanation was that she did want to feel that she had to share her life and her job with her sister.

Paris briefly hit upon Zoe’s true reasoning – her desire to keep Zende (Delon de Metz) all to herself – but Zoe managed to deflect. In the aftermath of their contentious confrontation, Paris decided to reject the job offer.

She relayed her regrets to Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor), and he attempted to dissuade her. Ditto Zende. And it actually seemed like the men may have gotten through to her…until she bid Carter a final goodbye and walked out the door.

But Zende wasn’t about to give up. He gave chase, caught up with Paris and made one more impassioned plea for her to stay. This time, she readily agreed. And then she leaned in for a kiss! The Bold and the Beautiful airs weekdays on CBS. Check your local listings for airtimes.
