The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers tease that Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) will continue to deal with unwanted feelings for Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson). Hope never asked to be struggling with all these wild desires, but she’s indeed got them.
Of course, Hope thinks what really matters is her sense of self-control.
Since Hope doesn’t plan on acting on those desires or breaking her vows to Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton), she feels like she’s got a firm grip on the situation.
However, Hope already looked like she was tempted to kiss Thomas in San Francisco – and her attraction has only grown stronger since then.
Now Hope and Thomas are about to head to Rome together, so that’ll bring more alone time and chances to get closer.
Once Thomas hears about Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) interfering in Hope’s marriage and accusing her of having romantic feelings for him, he may act like that’s ridiculous – at least at first.
From there, Thomas may flash back to all the little moments and nuggets of attraction he’s picked up on.
There’ll be even more of those in Italy, so B&B writers may force Thomas to face an internal battle of his own.
Thomas has been doing well in his recovery, but he was fixated on Hope for years.
It’s tough to believe Thomas can just shut off that fixation forever, especially when he feels like he might actually have a shot at making something happen with Hope.
It looks like Hope will wear a grand showstopper to wrap up the fashion preview, so that could be when Thomas’ resolve will finally break.
Thomas’ attempt to steer himself away from his obsession could fail miserably as he watches Hope in total awe of her beauty and presence.
Although it’s possible Thomas will stay strong and reject Hope if she makes a move, it’s equally possible that Hope will reignite his obsession.
This has been Steffy’s worst fear, so it might come true and lay the groundwork for the betrayal that may come next.
Is B&B creating the perfect cheating storm?
Time will tell, but Thomas may make some dangerous updates to his view of Hope once she’s wearing that spectacular showstopper and dazzling everyone.
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say some shockers and shakeups are still to come, so stay tuned for news on whether Thomas will become fixated on Hope again.
