Thomas proposed to Hope once again on The

Bold and the Beautiful, but her answer is not what anyone expected.
Ever since The Bold and the Beautiful’s Hope threw caution to the wind last June and pulled Thomas in for a passionate kiss in front of the Colosseum, they’ve been one of the most controversial soap couples around.

After all, 2019 was not a good year for Thomas. That was the year he returned from New York as a single dad after Caroline died. He was clearly not in his right mind when he emotionally manipulated young Douglas and chose to keep the truth about Beth being alive from Hope for those few fraught weeks he was determined to make her his wife.

A little over a year later, Thomas imagined a Forrester Creations mannequin that looked just like Hope had come to life, and he dated this mannequin in his apartment. It turned out that the incident was the result of a brain injury. After Thomas healed, he remained pretty harmless and quiet for a while until the show threw the character under the bus once again nearly three years later and made him responsible for that fake CPS call Brooke allegedly made.

Then, Thomas went to therapy and emerged a new man. This new man was one Hope could fall in love with, and that’s exactly what she did. Some fans had wanted this for years, going back to when the characters dated more than a decade ago.
