Conflict is always in fashion on The Bold and the Beautiful. On the episode airing on Wednesday, October 7, 2026, watch for Will to stand up to his mother, Katie. An additional spoiler provided to Soap Central by the show's publicity team reveals RJ and Electra talking to Zende.
Mother Dearest

Will (Crew Morrow) is unhappy that Katie (Heather Tom) is using his girlfriend, Dylan (Sydney Bullock), as a pawn in her plan to dethrone Forrester Creations as the top fashion house in Los Angeles. Katie wants Zende (Delon de Metz) to work for her at Logan Designs. If Dylan's job at Forrester Creations becomes a casualty in the process? Then, so be it!
Watch for Will to draw a hard line with his mother. We could see him ordering Katie to accept Dylan into the Spencer fold now that she's done her dirty work! Zende's decision should not impact Katie's feelings about Dylan's loyalty. Dylan did what was asked of her. She's risked her position at Forrester Creations.
Dylan can't afford to lose her position there. She needs both her job there and her gig at Bikini to make ends meet. If Katie causes Dylan to lose her job at Forrester, we can see Will demanding that she be brought on at either Logan Designs or Spencer Publications.
Message to Zende

If Zende's on the fence about leaving Forrester Creations and going over to Logan Designs, he may have second thoughts after Wednesday's show. That's when RJ and Electra are going to tell the talented designer that he's an integral part of their team.
They likely don't know that Zende has Logan Designs courting him. Zende has a decision to make. If he feels like a valued member of Electra's new fashion line, then he'll stay. He knows what Katie's truly doing. It's not just her wanting to reunite him with Hope at Logan Designs. Zende knows that he'd be a pawn in the ongoing war between Katie and Brooke.
Perhaps Zende will play the long game. If he stays at Forrester Creations, he could have a job for life. If he jumps ship and goes over to Logan Designs, he might have more creative freedom, but will the gig go on forever?
Will Katie give Dylan a break if that's what Will demands? What's Zende going to do? Sound off in the comments section below!
