B&B What-to-Watch Moments August 17 to 21: Suspicions, Threats, and MASSIVE Regrets

The Bold and the Beautiful heads into a big week after the beautiful, toe-dipping waters of Monaco. Your must-watch moments for the week of August 17 to 21, 2026, show quite a time for Steffy as she deals with the aftermath of throwing her wedding ring into the sand and double-fisting the champagne on the plane.

The Week After...

Steffy (Jacqueline MacInness Wood) went from the most magical moment of her life (recreated, of course) to the most miserable moment of her life in a flash. The fashion CEO was feeling the pain, so she took advantage of first-class hospitalities on the way home. By the time she gets to L.A., Steffy is the hottest mess around.

Or is Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) the hottest mess around? This time Carter made it to the alter, but he was dumped just a few months later. That has to sting for Carter, who is lamenting the loss of Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) and needs a good friend.

And Finn (Tanner Novlan)? The poor forlorn man spent hours running through the streets of Monaco calling Steffy's name, but eventually told Brooke and Ridge what happened, so that he can be chewed out some more by Ridge next week.

But things certainly get dicey next week when Carter and Steffy turn to each other for comfort. Later in the week, Finn tries to make amends with Steffy, but Steffy has a serious dilemma on her hands as she struggles to figure out what to do. Carter will also have to figure out what to do when Daphne wants to talk. They reach an understanding, but about what?

In other Bold news, Electra (Laneya Grace) will threaten Dylan next week, as Katie (Heather Tom) wonders why Will (Crew Morrow)would spend so much time with Electra's alleged best friend.
