The Bold and the Beautiful: Liam's storyline

Liam Spencer initially moves to Los Angeles in pursuit of his biological father and ends up working for Spencer Publications. Initially, he believes that his dad is one of the Forresters, either Ridge or Thorne. However, a DNA Test reveals that it is Bill Spencer - this marks the most tumultuous moment of Liam's life.

Liam's love life is no different, and he is often found entangled in relationships with Hope Logan and Steffy Forrester. Liam gets engaged to Hope, but one passionate kiss with Steffy changes everything. Subsequently, Liam ties the knot with Steffy. However, their marriage is full of manipulations at the hands of Bill and schemes from Steffy herself. They eventually get divorced.

Thereafter, Liam and Hope fly abroad to get married. On the day of the wedding, he finds a goodbye letter and thinks that Hope left him at the altar. Enraged, he makes out with Steffy. However, Hope comes back and informs him that the letter was from her father, so he marries Hope.

Liam is torn between Hope and Steffy, constantly switching loyalties. He then enters a rivalry with his half-brother, Wyatt Spencer, when they realize they both have feelings for Hope.

Instances such as an explosion in a building engineered by his father and the loss of a baby with Steffy after a motorcycle accident give immense pain to Liam. Later on in the storyline, Liam and Steffy have a daughter, Kelly.

However, due to his father's betrayal, Liam was unsure about Kelly's paternity. He decided to be with Hope, who was also pregnant with his child. It was later revealed that Kelly was indeed his daughter.

Hope later gave birth to his daughter, Beth, but the couple was told she passed away during delivery. Subsequently, Steffy adopts a child and names her Pheobe, who lives with her and Kelly for a while before Douglas reveals to Liam, Hope, and Steffy that Pheobe is actually Beth.

In recent episodes, his storylines with Hope and Steffy have been shown less onscreen. He was most recently seen accepting Luna into the family following the revelation that she was Bill's biological daughter.
