Beth Spencer’s absence on ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’

The Bold and the Beautiful often features Hope with her stepson Douglas Forrester (Henry Joseph Samiri). Hope shares custody of Douglas with Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson). Recently, the trio spent quality time together, and although fans love seeing Douglas, they’re curious why another family member is missing. That person is Hope and Liam’s daughter Beth Spencer (Madeline Valdez).

As viewers remember, Beth was in a huge storyline when Dr. Reese Buckingham (Wayne Brady) switched her at birth. Hope and Liam were eventually reunited with their daughter, yet Beth isn’t featured like the other kids. Her absence is a big topic on Twitter. “Love seeing the kids, but will we ever see Beth? She’s the only one we haven’t seen,” wrote one user. Another commenter chimed in with, “We want Beth with her parents onscreen!”

Beth Spencer included in Hope Logan and Liam Spencer’s upcoming storyline?

It’s not uncommon for soap opera children to disappear from onscreen. The kids will be gone for a while, then suddenly reappear. Odds are there might be a similar situation with Beth. With Hope and Liam’s huge storyline coming up, speculation is Beth will be part of it.
