Just when things were looking up for Katie on The Bold and the Beautiful, more drama ensues. This time it’s Katie’s professional life that’s facing upheaval.

Key Takeaways

• Katie is currently working as a PR specialist at Forrester Creations.
• Katie was upset when FC hired a PR firm to handle the Luna scandal.
• Brooke and Katie are clashing over her role at FC.
• Katie might be jumping ship to another company.

Underappreciated At Work

Like her sisters, Katie (Heather Tom) is an essential employee at Forrester Creations. As the public relations specialist, Katie has to deal with the media. Recently, the media hounded FC about Luna (Lisa Yamada) and her reign of terror. Instead of relying on Katie to handle the situation, FC hired a PR firm.

Since Katie and her family were involved in the Luna scandal, it’s understandable why the Forresters didn’t want her doing PR work. But the decision to use a PR firm upset Katie.

Many people can sympathize with Katie, who feels that she’s being replaced. However, some fans on Reddit believe she’s blowing things out of proportion. “It’s not like she’s been fired, she’s not losing hours, if anything she’s been given more help for the same paycheck,” the original poster wrote.

“Katie should be ecstatic that Forrester is providing her with so much support as she takes the necessary time to sort through her personal family problems,” one viewer replied. “I agree. She wants to take time off and support her and that’s fine, but the company still needs a PR person. They didn’t fire her. They just brought someone in temporarily,” wrote one commenter.

However, some fans understood Katie’s feelings. “I think Katie’s worried about being pushed out because of the history of Logan vs. Forrester at FC,” one fan replied.

Forrester vs. Spencer

Katie is already clashing with Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), who are happy with the PR firm’s work. With Katie no longer feeling useful at FC, she might take up Bill’s (Don Diamont) offer to work at Spencer Publications.

Bill will get his wish of having his family back at the company. However, Katie jumping ship will ignite a feud between Forrester and Spencer.

Although Brooke and Ridge implied Katie wasn’t needed, they’ll be furious if/when she quits FC. But Katie might not be the only person leaving. Bill wants Will (Crew Morrow) at Spencer, too, and if Katie goes, then Will might follow his mom’s lead.

With Bill snatching up the FC’s employees, this will reignite his longtime rivalry with Ridge. Meanwhile, Katie and Brooke’s sisterly bond might be broken as they support their men in the Forrester vs. Spencer battle.
