The Bold and the Beautiful Fan Theory: Is Hope Really Beth’s Mother?

The Bold and the Beautiful fans are buzzing over a shocking new theory that could rewrite one of the soap’s most emotional storylines. For years, Hope Logan and Liam Spencer have believed that their daughter Beth is their long-lost miracle baby — but some viewers think a dark twist could soon shatter that belief forever.

The Infamous Baby Switch Revisited

Beth’s birth was one of The Bold and the Beautiful’s most heart-wrenching storylines. Hope (Annika Noelle), heavily pregnant and alone on vacation, went into early labor and was assisted by Dr. Reese Buckingham (Wayne Brady). Moments after delivering the baby, Reese told Hope the devastating news — her daughter had died.

But the truth was far more sinister. Reese had staged the infant’s death and arranged for the baby’s adoption by Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), who unknowingly raised Hope’s biological child as Phoebe.
