The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers tease that Katie (Heather Tom) will soon have a lot to worry about. After Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Judge McMullen (Joe Lando) are set up by Bill (Don Diamont), it’s going to be clear that Bill knows the truth – that Ridge and the judge conspired to affect the outcome of the custody case and give Katie full custody of Will (Finnegan George).
And once Bill knows the truth, he’ll have the upper hand. He’ll be looking for ways to get even with Ridge and the judge, but he also might figure out that Katie knew about the whole situation and didn’t say anything about it. After all, Katie did a major about-face and essentially gave shared custody back to Bill. Bill always thought that was a remarkable gesture, but now he may realize that Katie was acting out of guilt.
It’s entirely possible that Bill will decide to keep quiet about the custody conspiracy. In lieu of turning Ridge and Judge McMullen in, Bill may approach Katie wanting more access to Will…or else he blabs to the authorities about what Ridge and the judge did. This would put Katie totally at Bill’s mercy.
And if Bill does decide to go this route, then Thorne (Ingo Rademacher) would basically have to stand by and watch it happen. This would be terribly difficult for Thorne to accept. Remember that it was Thorne’s idea in the first place for Katie to seek full custody of Will, because he really wanted to stick it to Bill. But now he’ll be forced to watch Bill spend more and more time with Will, and there’ll be nothing he can do about it.
This will surely cause strain in Katie and Thorne’s marriage. Thorne will be angry about Bill’s influence over their lives, and Katie will be basically at Bill’s beck and call. It’s a recipe for disaster, and Bill will probably be pleased as punch to be causing difficulties for Thorne.
How long do you think Bill will hold the custody conspiracy over everyone’s heads? Stay tuned to the CBS soap and don’t forget to check CDL often for the latest Bold and the Beautiful spoilers, updates, and news.
