“Steffy Started This Mess!” – Brooke Defends Daughter Hope as Forrester Power Struggle Erupts

EXPLOSIVE CORPORATE DRAMA UNFOLDS In a shocking turn of events at Forrester Creations, what started as Ridge’s daughter Steffy’s “unjustified” firing of Brooke’s daughter Hope has spiraled into an all-out war for control of the family empire. Brooke Logan has found herself caught between loyalty to her daughter Hope and her relationship with Ridge as the truth about a secret corporate takeover plot comes to light.

BETRAYAL IN THE BOARDROOM “He thinks he can do this? Take this company from my family? From me?” a furious Ridge demanded after discovering Carter Walton’s involvement in the scheme. The betrayal cuts especially deep for Ridge, who considered Carter “like a brother.” But it’s not just Carter – Hope’s participation in the coup has turned this into a true family crisis.

ROMANCE FUELS THE FIRE The situation has become even more complicated by Hope and Carter’s passionate connection. The pair were recently discovered making love at the cabin, proving their alliance goes far beyond business. “I needed that,” Hope breathlessly told Carter after their intimate encounter. Carter acknowledged the gravity of their actions, noting it “doesn’t change what we’ve done though.”

VISION FOR THE FUTURE Hope and Carter aren’t just plotting a takeover – they’re dreaming of a transformed Forrester Creations. During an intimate discussion at Hope’s cabin, they shared their vision of a company “where everyone will be heard.” Still, Carter admits he “can’t imagine how shocked Ridge will feel if they go through with this.”

BROOKE SPEAKS TRUTH TO POWER While Brooke acknowledged the takeover attempt was wrong, she didn’t hesitate to identify the catalyst: “Steffy firing Hope wasn’t justified and started this whole mess.” Her stance comes amid her own professional renaissance at Forrester, where her revived Bedroom line has been flourishing despite Steffy’s objections.

LEGAL BATTLE BREWING Ridge isn’t taking this lying down. He’s brought in Justin Barber to examine the LLC paperwork and “crush” the takeover attempt. “Carter can’t get away with this,” Ridge declared, determined to protect his family’s legacy. Meanwhile, Hope and Carter realize they’re approaching the point of no return, but believe their vision for Forrester’s future is worth the risk.

FAMILIES IN CRISIS This corporate warfare erupts as multiple families face their own turmoil. The Spencer family is still reeling from the Luna deception, which ended with the shocking revelation that she had murdered Tom Starr to maintain her false claim to the Spencer fortune. Meanwhile, Hope’s relationship with her father Deacon remains strained due to his engagement to Sheila Carter.

POINT OF NO RETURN As tensions escalate, the question remains: Can the Forrester and Logan families survive yet another devastating betrayal? With Justin examining the paperwork and Ridge determined to maintain control, the stage is set for an epic battle that could permanently reshape the fashion dynasty.

Will Brooke’s insight about Steffy’s role in starting this crisis help bridge the growing divide? Or has Hope’s alliance with Carter created an unbridgeable chasm between the families? One thing’s certain – this power struggle is far from over.
