Bold and Beautiful spoilers for Monday–Friday, December 8–12, 2025, bring the wedding of Hope Logan and Liam Spencer, while Forrester Creations buckles under an Eric–Ridge power struggle, and Sheila Carter fumes over one very pointed snub. As one preview puts it, “Liam and Hope’s wedding takes center stage as emotions run high over Eric’s forced retirement.”
What happens each day (Dec 8–12, episodes #9668–#9672)
- Monday, December 8, 2025 — #9668: Eric Forrester’s emotions swell as Ridge Forrester does not back down from forcing retirement. Carter Walton tries to see both sides inside FC’s executive suite.
- Tuesday, December 9, 2025 — #9669: With wedding prep in full swing, Brooke Logan questions Ridge about Eric’s future. Deacon Sharpe “breaks the news to Sheila” that she is not invited to Hope and Liam’s ceremony, a decision that lights the fuse for mid-week drama.
- Wednesday, December 10, 2025 — #9670: Guests gather for the wedding day. Taylor (Dr. Taylor Hayes) warns Sheila against crashing the event after an angry venting session.
- Thursday, December 11, 2025 — #9671: Hope walks down the aisle. Taylor clarifies that she cannot be friends with Sheila because she is Deacon’s therapist. Ridge tells Eric he “owes him all his success,” while Bill Spencer and Brooke deliver speeches before vows and rings are exchanged.
- Friday, December 12, 2025 — #9672: The reception continues as the newlyweds celebrate, and the Forrester rift keeps simmering.
Wedding of the year: guest list, officiant, and the one name left off
Preview footage and week-ahead rundowns agree: “It’ll be a week of romance, joy, and tension on B&B,” with Hope (Annika Noelle) and Liam (Scott Clifton) front and center. Family fills Brooke’s house as guests arrive: Bill (Don Diamont), Katie (Heather Tom), and Deke (Harrison Cone) are among those shown heading in while an ecstatic Hope finishes getting ready with Brooke, Katie, and Donna (Jennifer Gareis). One sweet twist is that Beth is officiating the wedding, giving Lope a signature family moment.
There is, however, one glaring omission. “Sheila wasn’t invited,” and Deacon has to deliver that “bad news” to his wife on December 9. The snub sends Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) straight to Taylor (Rebecca Budig), where tempers flare, and a wedding-crash fantasy is floated—and shot down. Or as one preview teases, Taylor says crashing would be “a crazy thing to do.”
Eric vs. Ridge: forced retirement that won’t stick
Even amid tulle and toasts, the Forrester battle is unavoidable. Another preview spells it out: “Eric accuses Ridge of never listening to him, but Ridge fires back that he always listens to his dad.” The patriarch also draws a hard line—he “will not be out to pasture.” Expect Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) to try to play peacemaker while Steffy Forrester and Dr. John “Finn” Finnegan weigh Eric’s health and Ridge’s responsibilities as CEO.
Who’s in play this week
- Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) — the bride and groom.
- Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang), Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis), Katie Logan (Heather Tom) — pre-wedding support squad; Brooke also confronts Ridge about Eric.
- Beth — officiant for the ceremony.
- Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) and Will — among the family seen at the wedding festivities.
- Electra — shown in the wedding-day look-around with the Spencers.
- Deke (Harrison Cone) — appears at Brooke’s with the arriving guests.
- Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) and Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) — marriage tested when Deacon relays the “not invited” decision.
- Dr. Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) — tries to de-escalate Sheila’s fury and sets boundaries as Deacon’s therapist.
- Eric Forrester (John McCook) and Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) — father and son at odds over Eric’s role at Forrester Creations.
- Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) — attempts to put himself in Eric’s shoes.
- Steffy Forrester and Dr. John “Finn” Finnegan — looped into the family’s health-and-leadership concerns.
How the week’s beats land (and what to watch for)
Sheila’s next move: Being barred from the guest list stiffens Sheila’s resolve. If she pushes to attend, Taylor’s warning suggests any stunt will boomerang and risk Deacon’s tenuous peace with Hope.
Eric’s endgame: The “forced retirement” language is doing a lot of work; Eric’s “not out to pasture” stance hints at a looming FC showdown that could collide with the reception.
Lope’s vows under pressure: With Bill and Brooke toasting and Beth officiating, the ceremony is engineered for maximum heart. But a mid-event interruption—hinted at by the “unexpected guest” chatter in the weekly promo universe—would be the kind of cliffhanger this show loves.
Where and when to watch
Episodes air Monday–Friday, December 8–12, 2025, on CBS (streaming on Paramount+ the same day). The December 9 Deacon–Sheila scene sets up the Wednesday ceremony and a Thursday aisle walk, with the Friday reception closing the loop.
Bottom line
Bold and Beautiful spoilers deliver a classic week: Hope and Liam’s wedding for the romantics, a ferocious Eric–Ridge clash for the legacy fans, and a ticking-clock dilemma courtesy of Sheila. Or, in the preview’s words, “It’ll be a week of romance, joy, and tension on B&B” as December 8–12 puts the spotlight on family, loyalty, and a guest list that says everything.
