In a cruel twist of fate that feels all too familiar, heartbreak once again finds its way to the doorstep of The Bold and the Beautiful’s most devoted romantic — Carter Walton. The man with a heart of gold, a soul built for love, and a spirit constantly crushed beneath the weight of others’ emotional baggage, is staring down yet another emotional abyss.

Carter, who’s worn the titles of officiant, confidant, and heart-mender more times than any man should, now finds himself at the edge of devastation. Again. The whispers are turning into warning bells: Katie Logan — the woman who promised him hope after Quinn Fuller left without a trace — might not be as committed as he believed. And lurking in the shadows? None other than Bill Spencer, Katie’s long-time lover and father of her child.

Is history repeating itself? It certainly seems so.

Once upon a time, Carter pieced together Quinn’s shattered heart — only to watch her vanish. Then came Katie, strong, nurturing, and supposedly ready to love again. But now she’s pulling back, her eyes clouded, her heart torn. A single kiss shared with Bill in a moment of chaos may have lit embers that could burn Carter’s world down.

He’s the man women turn to when they’re broken — but never the one they choose when they heal.

As Carter stands at the crossroads yet again, fans are left gutted, asking the same question: Why can’t Carter find happiness? Will this latest heartbreak be the one that breaks him for good?

One thing is certain — in the glamorous world of the Forresters, Spencers, and Logans… true love may be the deadliest game of all. 💔
