This certainly sounds like a sentiment many “Bold and the Beautiful” fans might be feeling right now! The relationship between Hope Logan and Carter Walton has been a rollercoaster, and recent spoilers and developments suggest that their attempts at a lasting romance are indeed hitting major roadblocks.

Here’s why “Hope & Carter’s Wedding Was a HUGE Mistake!” could be the “breaking news” you’re seeing:

• Hope Rejected Carter’s Proposal (Recently): Very recent spoilers (May 2025) indicate that Carter did propose marriage to Hope, but Hope turned him down. While she expressed that she loves him and wants to move forward, she feels a marriage proposal is “a step too far, for now.” This immediately throws a wrench in any wedding plans and signifies a major setback for the couple.
• Liam’s “Dying” News and Hope’s Conflicted Feelings: A major factor playing into Hope’s hesitations is Liam Spencer’s supposed “dying” condition. Hope has been spending a lot of time with Liam, expressing her love and regret for the pain she caused him. While she insisted to Carter that he was the man she wanted, her actions and lingering feelings for Liam are clearly a significant hurdle. Carter even overheard Hope telling Liam she wanted to stay by his side.
• Daphne’s Interference: There’s been a new character, Daphne Rose, who was initially hired by Steffy to break up Hope and Carter. While Hope and Carter seem to have overcome that immediate threat, Daphne’s presence and potential past connection with Carter (or even a possible hookup that’s being kept secret) could still play a role in their undoing.
• The “Forrester Creations Coup” Aftermath: Hope and Carter’s relationship intensified during their shared ambition to take over Forrester Creations (or at least Hope’s line). Carter’s eventual decision to return the company to the Forresters, despite Hope’s desire to keep it, caused a rift between them. This demonstrated a fundamental difference in their priorities and loyalty, with Hope feeling betrayed by Carter’s choice to side with the Forresters.
• Fan Sentiment: Many viewers have felt that Hope and Carter lack the “chemistry and history” of other couples on the show. Their relationship has been perceived by some as opportunistic or a rebound, particularly on Hope’s side, after her tumultuous affair with Thomas. This makes a potential wedding, or even a deep, lasting commitment, seem like a misstep to a segment of the audience.

So, while there hasn’t been an actual wedding between Hope and Carter that was a mistake (as Hope rejected the proposal), the sentiment of “HUGE Mistake!” is likely reflecting the ongoing struggles and underlying issues in their relationship that suggest it’s ultimately not meant to be, and a breakup is highly anticipated by many. The recent turn of events, especially Hope’s rejection of marriage and her continued connection to Liam, strongly indicate that their romance is indeed heading for a breakup.
