The last we saw of Diamond White's Paris Buckingham on The Bold and the Beautiful, she was helping out at Forrester Creations big fashion showdown late last year. She even seemed to still be close to Zende. However, when Zende began making eyes at Luna Nozawa, we knew that his romance with Paris had to be over.
Now, Paris is back on the FC scene and it seems she was in...Paris. When she returns, she will be sporting quite the rock on her finger with Matthew Atkinson's Thomas and his son, Douglas, by her side. In fact, it appears that Thomas and Paris grew quite close when they were overseas and Hope has some serious competition on her hands.
While Paris' involvement with Thomas might seem out of left field for some, we must remember that Thomas once had feelings for Paris, a woman who was his roommate on more than one occasion. However, she had feelings for Zende and a romance with Thomas never took off. They did remain friends and when Thomas was banished from Forrester Creations and his family after his CPS call mess came to light, she took him in while he re-grouped.
White made her B&B debut as Paris in 2020 as Zoe Buckingham's younger sister and the daughter of the man who stole Hope's baby, Beth. Like Hope, Paris had a crush on Finn. She then moved onto Zende and later, Carter. After Carter left her at the alter to be with Quinn, Paris and Zende reunited. Perhaps we will learn why they are no longer together when Zende discovers she is now ready to commit to Thomas.
Where does this Paris surprise leave Hope? She never wanted Thomas to leave town in the first place, but he wanted to get married and she wasn't ready. Will a little bit of competition make Hope realize she might have made a mistake?
Should Hope fight for Thomas or is Paris now the right woman for him? We want to hear from you -- so drop your comments in the Comments section below, tweet about it on Twitter, share it on Facebook, or chat about it on our Message Boards.
