THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL Preview: Dylan and Will Face the Aftermath of Their Night Together

Published

on

By

This week on all-new episodes of The Bold and the Beautiful, viewers will learn the upshot of the relationship between Will (Crew Morrow) and Electra (Laneya Grace) and Will and Dylan (Sydney Bullock). Last Friday’s cliffhanger saw Will giving in to Dylan’s seduction as she tries to “comfort” him from his latest break-up with Electra, thanks to the Forresters, no less.

Now in The Bold and the Beautiful video spoilers for the week of July 27-31, Dylan wakes up next to Will on the couch and she says, “Good morning.” But what actually happened? Did they have sex? According to the official B&B spoilers below, Electra will draw a firm line over Dylan’s relationship with Will.

Meanwhile, Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) is becoming more obsessed with trying to process why Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) is blocking her from being in her son and grandson’s life. Clearly, she’s not remembering all the terror she brought to Steffy. But by the end of the week, will Finn (Tanner Novlan) have once again softened towards his mother as much as he told Steffy he would stand firm and keep her away from their family?

Then, Steffy and Hope (Annika Noelle) go toe to toe, where Steffy tells Hope how she lit the fuse for the rivalry between Forrester Creations and Logan and there is no coming back from that, ever!

Take a look at the full B&B spoilers for the week of July 27-31.

Monday, July 27

Wyatt wonders if Will is already putting Electra behind him.

Hope stands her ground when Steffy demands answers.

Tuesday, July 28

Finn reassures Steffy with a heartfelt promise about where his loyalties lie.

Will gets a reality check when Wyatt weighs in on his latest troubles.

Dylan’s unexpected confession stuns Electra.

Friday, July 31

Check out the B&B video teaser for this week’s episodes below.

Then weigh-in: Do you think Dylan and Will will have a relationship from here on out? Will Dylan get pregnant? Do you want Dylan or Electra at this point to be with Will? Are you sick of Sheila being obsessed with trying to get back into the good graces of Steffy and Finn, after all of her heinous crimes, or do you want Finn to cut her some slack, so the next round of her terror could begin?

‘The Bold and the Beautiful’s’ Scott Clifton Talks His Lead Actor Daytime Emmy Nomination, and the Omission of His Scene Partner, Annika Noelle (Exclusive)

Published

Scott Clifton, Annika Noelle

Less than two weeks ago, The Bold and the Beautiful’s Scott Clifton (Liam Spencer) received the news he was nominated for a Daytime Emmy in the Outstanding Lead Actor category at the upcoming 53rd annual Daytime Emmy Awards.

Clifton delivered what may have been the best work of his career in 2025; in a heartbreaking story arc where a believed-to-be-dying Liam  tries to come to terms with his fate, and what his exit from the land of the living means, and what it would do to the daughters he leaves behind, the women he’s loved, and his father.

Going into this year’s Emmy race, Scott is already a three-time Daytime Emmy winner and a record holder for being the only actor to have won in the three acting categories throughout his career: the now defunct Younger Actor, Supporting Actor and Lead Actor.

Shortly after receiving the news of his latest nomination, Scott shared his reaction and what scenes he decided to include on his now Emmy-nominated reel when he participated in the Michael Fairman Channel’s Daytime Emmy Nominations Special 2026 Live!

During the conversation with Scott, it was very apparent that he feels his on-screen partnership with Annika Noelle (Hope) was a key to his success in 2025, and one of the reason for a key scene he chose. However, Annika’s name was left off the nomination list which disappointed Clifton as he shared below.

HOW SCOTT CLIFTON WENT ABOUT CRAFTING HIS LEAD ACTOR REEL

“They got a lot of reels to watch. So, I just picked three scenes. It’s important to create a context so that people aren’t completely lost,” explains Clifton on his best practices strategy. “I picked the scene where Liam found out the diagnosis (about his inoperable brain mass), where Finn (Tanner Novlan) and Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) tell him which sets the stage. And then, there is a scene where Liam is saying “don’t tell anyone.”

Next, there’s the scene at Il Giardino between myself and Don Diamont (Bill) where Liam is telling his father without telling him, by saying, ‘I just want you to know how much I love you, and how grateful I am to you.'”

Then, the final scene, and I owe it all to Annika, was between Liam and Hope. This is where Hope kind of says, ‘I know,’ and then they just have a conversation about their lives and their daughter. Liam also talks about his mom. It just seemed real to me and the best way to close it out. That was it. That was the whole reel about 11 minutes long.”

ANNIKA AND SCOTT’S BITTERSWEET EMMY MOMENT

When Scott connected with his on-screen wife, Annika Noelle, following the news of his nomination, which actually came on the Monday before the full nominations were revealed on Tuesday via Extra, there were a rollercoaster of emotions.

Scott detailed, “Annika sent the most beautiful congratulations, and I was trying to figure out if they had announced her category. However, it was in the middle of that conversation that she said. ‘no.’ And then, the conversation turned into my rage for her not being recognized because that whole story was just as much hers as it was mine.”

“My, God,” Clifton continued. “The way that she had to downplay so many things and keep the secret that she knew, that I knew, that she knew. The end of that scene, I couldn’t not include it. It’s more a scene about her and how hard this is for her than it was about Liam. It blew me away that she wasn’t recognized for it this year, but she will next year.”

You can check out Scott’s segment on the Daytime Emmy Nominations Special 2026 Live! below at roughly the 25:46 mark into the show.

So, were you happy to hear what scenes Scott submitted that earned him a Lead Actor Daytime Emmy nomination? Do you think he’s one of the frontrunners to take home the gold when the Daytime Emmys are handed out on October 30? Do you feel as Scott does that Annika Noelle should have been a nominee for her work in 2025? Let us know via the comment section.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Katie is Disowned By The Logan Sisters

Published

Heather Tom

The Logan sisters are no more! After the Friday, July 24 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) has thrown Katie (Heather Tom) out of the family and is backed up by their sister, Donna (Jennifer Gareis).

Brooke throws down on Katie declaring, “We are no longer family! You declared war and this is the consequences!” Katie in tears stammers around the Forrester living room when Donna goes in on her too!

Donna tells Katie that her secrets and lies put her in the middle between her both her sisters and most of all, she messed with her marriage, adding, “You undermined our entire family, Katie!”

KATIE IS PILED UPON

Next, Katie makes a plea to Eric (John McCook) to tell everyone the truth, that he willingly came to work with her at Logan and promised to stand at the end of the runaway with her, hands raised in the air.  Katie cries, “Tell them!” However, Eric walks away from her and tells Donna he wants to go upstairs and lay down after Will (Crew Morrow) punched Eric in the face with a fist that was meant for R.J (Brayan Nicoletti).

Ridge tells Katie her son, Will “is a punk.” Brooke goes in at Katie once again for how her lies and machinations tore the family apart. She ends with, “You’re not welcome here anymore. Get out of this house!”

Brooke tells Katie she chose to be a Spencer and unfortunately Hope made a choice, too. The whole family is fractured according to Brooke. Donna piles up on Katie saying this is the same feeling that they felt when their father abandoned them all those years ago. Katie cries and cannot believe how they are comparing the two situations.

Donna stands with Brooke as Katie in tears says, well, if they can’t love her, she will always love them. Brooke boots her out with “Goodbye Katie.” Outside, Katie completely breaks down.

It looks like Heather Tom, a Lead Actress Daytime Emmy nominee this year, will also have quite the submission for the same category in the competition in 2027, if you combine scenes from this episode with the knockdown war of words with Brooke a month ago. Could Heather win a record-setting 7th or 8th Emmy making her the most-winning actress in daytime history? We shall see.

So, do you think the Logan sisters went overboard by disowning Katie? Will Katie decide to just go make her business a success anyway, or end up kowtowing to Brooke and Donna? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
