Preview of the episode of July 8, 2026

In the episode of Beautiful Airing Wednesday, July 8, 2026, on Channel 5, Taylor continues to hide her illness from Steffy, who meanwhile teases her about Ridge, hoping for a reconciliation. Brooke, meanwhile, monitors Hope to see if she's still obsessed with Finn, but neither she nor Ridge will like the answer.

Taylor is seriously ill (heart failure), which is why she's returned home. The psychiatrist wants to spend her final moments with the people she loves, but she doesn't want anyone to worry. For this reason, she refuses to tell her family the truth and has confided only in Li, who has promised to help her when the time comes.

Steffy is happy her mother is back and wishes she would never leave Los Angeles again, pushing her to reconnect with Ridge. Forrester teases Taylor about her return, hoping the trouble in her mother's eyes is due to her father, but she ignores the real reasons tormenting Hayes.

Meanwhile, Brooke is busy with her line's orders, and Hope lends her a hand. This mother-daughter moment helps Logan Sr. figure out if Hope has finally given up on Finn or if she's still obsessed. The answer won't be what she hoped for.

Katie, however, surprises Will by asking him to consider a job at Forrester Creations, even though Spencer Publications is his legacy and Bill wants him there. Liam questions Bill about his feelings for Katie, now that everything with Poppy seems to be over.
