The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers tease that Hope Spencer (Annika Noelle) will remain heartbroken over this separation from Douglas Forrester (Henry Joseph Samiri) and all the waiting. Everyone keeps telling Hope that Douglas will eventually want to come home, but she’s not so sure.
Douglas is having a blast at the cliff house so far, which has left Hope fearful about him wanting to live with Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) for good.
Nevertheless, Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton), Steffy and John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) all expect Douglas to return to the cabin sooner or later.
Once the fun of living by the beach wears off, Douglas may indeed make a more permanent choice about his living arrangements.
However, that doesn’t necessarily mean that Douglas will choose to live with Hope full-time.
It seems like B&B writers want Hope in crisis right now, so she may not get the outcome she’s hoping for here.
Douglas doesn’t like the idea of his parents fighting over him, but he may eventually feel comfortable choosing one or the other.
Having this time away from both Hope and Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) could help Douglas gain clarity about his future.
Of course, Thomas also insists he’s ready to turn things around for real this time and is now in therapy.
It looks like Douglas will have a chance to see Thomas rejoining Hope’s line and making some big changes that’ll score him some points with his son.
Taylor Hayes (Krista Allen) suggested Thomas and Hope could go back to shared custody, so that’s an option to consider.
Even so, there’s no doubt that Thomas would like to be Douglas’ primary caregiver and become a more important part of his son’s life.
If Douglas chooses to live with Thomas at the end of all this, Hope’s going to be more devastated than ever.
That’s the kind of thing that could really lead to Hope’s downward spiral and leave her wondering how she can possibly handle the loss.
Will Douglas pick Thomas as the main parent he lives with down the road? Will Hope get some crushing updates after Douglas’ time at the cliff house wraps up?
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Douglas will have to make some tough decisions, so stay tuned for news on what’s next for him.
