B&B’s Katherine Kelly Lang Loves The Steamy Thomas & Hope Storyline Just As Much As We Do

Despite having Brooke Logan as an opposing force against their growing romantic connection, Hope Logan and Thomas Forrester have one major supporter in their corner: Katherine Kelly Lang. The soap icon, who plans to continue playing Brooke long into her golden years, as she proudly told Soap Opera Digest, was effusive about their connection during a recent appearance on Australia’s “Studio 10” morning show. Lang praised her co-stars by stating, “I think they have very good chemistry, and we’ll see what happens!”(via Soaps).

Lang understands that pairing Hope with Thomas after years of him essentially torturing her with one devious scheme after another is controversial. However, she is fully invested in the storyline, reasoning, “I’m sure there are people that like it and don’t like it, but I like it! I think it’s very interesting. But of course, Brooke hates it. I like it, but Brooke hates it.” Brooke has begged Hope not to give up on her marriage to Liam Spencer, but there’s nothing left between the two. 

After all, he moved on to Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) before the ink was dry on the divorce papers, while Hope requires undivided attention from her man. Hope and Thomas aren’t officially in a relationship, but they’re taking steps to avoid anyone else catching them in the act like Brooke. However, during one of their latest encounters at the office, they forgot to lock the door yet again, allowing Brooke to walk in and voice her condemnation once more.
