Scott Clifton is well-known for playing Liam Spencer on The Bold and the Beautiful. He recently talked about Liam's difficult journey and his desire to take responsibility for his actions in an interview with Soaps.com.

After Steffy and Hope's ongoing drama, the Emmy winner has finally found comfort in Liam's recent break from dating. Since Liam isn't used to being single for long, Clifton is hopeful that he'll learn from this experience.

He mentioned in the interview,

“It takes a lot to redeem a character like that, and Liam is not redeemed, but [this period of self-reflection] is a step in that direction.”

As Liam tries to figure out what to do with his choices, fans are left wondering if he can ever make things right, considering how complicated and flawed he is.


The Bold and the Beautiful actor Scott Clifton talks about his character Liam

Clifton mentioned how a new fling with Ivy could give Liam a chance to start fresh, especially with all the drama going on between him, Hope, and Steffy. He talked about the ups and downs of Liam's relationships and the struggles of going back and forth between Steffy and Hope.

He said,

“When I first started on the show, I thought it was kind of gross, you know, that Liam keeps going back and forth.”

Clifton also expressed his desire for Liam to face consequences for his actions and undergo a reckoning, which has finally begun. Liam's recent dry spell has been a welcome change for the three-time Emmy winner, who wanted Liam to experience a tangible fallout for his choices.

He explained that the reason he thought so was,

"The guy keeps getting rewarded for bad behavior by somebody either forgiving him or giving him another chance, or he just moves on to the next person who he hasn’t hurt in long enough time that now suddenly they forget everything that he did to them."
