B&B’s Lawrence Saint-Victor Shuts Down Comment that He is Using His Position as a Writer on the Soap to ‘Kiss All the Actresses’
The Bold and the Beautiful has several multi-hyphenate talents and a few of them not only act on the soap opera but are on the writing team. Of course, we are talking about Lawrence Saint-Victor (Carter) and Heather Tom (Katie).
Saint-Victor is currently involved in a new romantic storyline with Hope Logan played by Annika Noelle. In story, the two are starting their own business venture, after Hope was fired from Forrester and shown the front door by Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood). All this, after Hope trips and falls onto Steffy’s husband, Finn (Tanner Novlan) and they land on a desk!
Fans on X can be extremely rude and vicious at times, just typing from their keyboards or phones, not realizing the implications of what they are saying, or if they do realize it, they certainly can expect a backlash. That has happened here, after a fan claimed that Lawrence is using his position as a writer on the soap to write himself into stories and scenes to kiss actresses on the show. That comment was since deleted on X. However, Lawrence wanted to clear the air.

On Monday, Saint-Victor fired back at a poster, “I don’t usually respond, but you’re calling my integrity into question. I as a writer, have no control over story or what Carter does or doesn’t do. I’ve seen a few of your ignorant remarks about me. They are insulting.”
Then on Tuesday, taking to his X account, Saint-Victor shared, “Here’s some context about my response to a ‘fan”’yesterday. I was accused of using the power they think I have as a writer to write myself into love scenes so I can kiss all the actresses. That’s an insulting statement, and I wish not to be tagged in comments like those.” Fans and followers were quick to come to his defense and he added, “Thank you all for your love and support.”

This isn’t the first rumors floating around on Saint-Victor of late. For back in September, some fans came up with the notion that he was leaving The Bold and the Beautiful to jump ship to the new CBS daytime drama series, Beyond the Gates, which is absolutely not happening.
Saint-Victor made his soap opera debut as Guiding Light’s Remy Boudreau from 2006-09. Later in 2009, he co-created the web series Wed Locked along with his former GL co-star Karla Mosley (ex-B&B and now Beyond the Gates),which eventually caught the eye of B&B EP and head writer, Brad Bell. Lawrence joined B&B in 2013 and began on the writing team a few years later.

In an interview with Woman’s World back in September, Saint-Victor shared on his excitement to be a part of the writing team, “I get to work closely with Brad, and hear his ideas and his vision, and then work with the writers and write. As an actor, you’re usually the last one to get it, but as part of the writing team, you’re part of creating the thing that they’re doing on set every day. It’s so fulfilling.”
He added, “I love the writing, because you’re kind of isolated and in your own space. But I am an actor, so I also enjoy being on set and being artistic and collaborative with my fellow artists. When my character is front burner and I am writing, I’m very busy. I gotta delegate my time, but the writing of the stories also aids me when I’m acting. It all works together.”
Share your thoughts on a fan calling into question Saint-Victor’s integrity due to him being on the writing team, when he is also an actor on the show. Then, let us know if you are enjoying the Carter and Hope pairing? Share your thoughts in the comment section.

Thope fans are the worst. They attack actors and fans grossly. But keep pushing that gross couple
Fans on social media can be so mean. The real criticism is why Mr. Saint-Victor cannot get better stories, one involving a lasting relationship instead of Carter l being the other man or eventual second choice. He is far more exciting actor to watch than many of his cast mates.
Too much alcohol drinking on the soaps
Way too much bed hopping. Sick.
Um… booze and bed hopping have been part of soaps for decades. That’s like complaining about seeing bad things if you watch the news. Find another genre if you’re looking for puritanical values.
I’m always glad when I see Carter in story.
Me too. I just wish they could all get along so we don’t have to take sides.
I Love Carter and Hope together, they are the New Power Couple , Let someone else have power instead of the Forester’s.
Carter was.better off with Katie. Hope give me her momma Brooke Vibes. Not good.
Too much sex, Hope relationship with Thomas was all about sex, and how he can help her line, she grew fond Of Carter after he came to help.
If he as the writer, it seems like he makes all the women (street-ladies …name one that have not been taken to bed., Brooks (father, son, and Hope father.
Its a family show, I watch it daily, can they stay out the bed for a while, and have a normal life.
I also would like to comment him on his factoring career, he’s great, but too much sex. Everyone of the character been in bed.
I can see why the comments.
Enough is enough.
He should not take it personal, like he told Stephanie, but his character of Carter, need not romance. everyone, next Bill son will be in bed, and Bill with his ex daughter.
I hope you get rid of him and Hope. She is a low life hope, who thinks she can have any man she wants, & Carter is just as bad, bedding every woman on the soap, please please get rid rid of them before they destroy more lives
I think everyone forgets that Steffy locked Hope in a gondola Making Liam think she wasn’t going to show up so Steffy Walked up the side of the mountain and wedding attire and married him And how stuff is thrown herself between Liam and Hope’s marriage. and even how Steffi married to Finn at the time kissed Liam in Rome after Liam seen Thomas and Hope kissing none of this stuff ever gets brought up that Stephanie thinks she’s holier than thou
It bothered him that much? There may be some truth to it he has been with dam near all the women on there
So has everyone else. It’s part of the role they play.
I think it is Very rude what some people are saying about Saint Victor I think he is a good actor.
It’s just the soaps come on, people.
We all get caught up in the drama, but after all, it is just a show. I wish Saint victor the best I watched this show for years still love it
Why does Carter always get the leftovers, he needs his own special love. Just like Taylor. Bring new faces to the story and create new relationships with new characters. Give Carter, Taylor, Ridge, Liam and Dollar Bill new Love with new faces and watch the real drama. Put those youngsters to work …..It’s always the same circle of idiots. “No pun intended”
I don’t like seeing Carter and Hope together. It makes me feel like I want to puke, or change the channel.
I love Carter. I hope he quits Forrester’s and take Hope and all the Logan’s and Zende,to start their own fashion house ,and leave the Forrester clan in the dust.
Not a fan of Hope and Carter only because Hope is confused, and all over the place. The chemistry on her part is Luke warm which reads as though she’s using Carter. As far as the ignorant comment questioning St. Victor’s integrity … we shouldn’t breathe air into ignorance, jealousy and hate.
He is exploiting writing position to self promote and frankly its made me ill.
I cannot watch this B&B garbage any longer.
This actor’s inflated ego turned my stomach.
I think he killed the soap I won’t be watching this any longer.
Fairman start being fair to viewers not merely catering to egos on the sets.
There’s an entire writing team, not just St. Victor!
Sorry but this is more of HIS coordinate PR! First he bragged about writing but when people realized he starred himself and downgraded others he tried to pretend it was not him at all. This is all BS . Now I am sickened by his stupid arrogant character and his ego
He uses his position for self promotion and to exclude competition.

Beyond the Gates
‘Beyond the Gates’ Emmy Winner Ambyr Michelle Wants to Compete on ‘Dancing with the Stars’: ‘Pick Me’ (Exclusive)
Soap opera fans are always clamoring for when Dancing with the Stars reveals their cast each season, that they would include a familiar face from daytime drama, but it rarely happens, if ever, anymore.
Over the last several years, the series has leaned heavily into casting celebrities with massive TikTok or Instagram followers, which in turn, have helped this season and last have their best ratings numbers in years.
But, how about for next season’s cast of Dancing with the Stars, that it could include newly-awarded Daytime Emmy winner, Ambyr Michelle (Eva Thomas) of Beyond the Gates?

LOVE OF DANCE TO LOVE OF ACTING
Michael Fairman TV spoke to Michelle about her dance background and if she would love a shot at lifting the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy during Wednesday’s November 11, livestream chat on the Michael Fairman Channel.
Ambyr explained to fans (who joined in on the live chat), how she began her show business career. “I started off as a dancer, first and foremost. Acting wasn’t really something I wanted to go after. I did plays when I was younger, but it was just something we did in school, but I really wanted to be a dancer. I moved out to LA to dance, and I fell out of love with dance, which was so weird.”
This year’s Emerging Talent in a Daytime Drama Series winner, added, “I was like, ‘What is going on?’ I moved all the way out here for dance. I found I was forcing myself to go to dance class, and I just didn’t have the passion for it. I was working at this restaurant at the time, and one of my coworker was like, ‘What about taking an acting class out here?'”
Next, Ambyr took the coworker up on the idea. “So, I took an acting class and I fell in love with it that day,” shared Michelle. “I was like, ‘I want to do this for the rest of my life.’ I thought, I would love to book a role, of course, as a dancer, but I think acting has a little bit more longevity.”

A SHOT AT THE LEN GOODMAN MIRRORBALL TROPHY
When the talked turned to if Ambyr would consider or be interested in appearing on the ballroom dance competition series, she piped up with, “I would love to do Dancing with the Stars! Pick me!”
As those in the live chat rallied around this idea, it made us think, Ambyr could be the first contestant from Beyond the Gates, and someone representing the soaps. It checks off so many boxes! To which Ambyr replied, “That would be beautiful.”
You can check out the full conversation with Ambyr below.
So, what do you think soap fans? Can we make sure Ambyr’s name gets in front of the producers and casting director for next season’s Dancing with the Stars? Would you like to see her in the competition? If so, who would be your dream pro professional dance partner for her? Let us know in the comment section.
