Why B&B’s Miracle Child, Beth, Doesn’t Need Santa’s Help This Year
Beth is considered the miracle child of The Bold and the Beautiful. She had a difficult origin story since she was kidnapped at birth. But she overcame so much, including seeing her parents getting back together, which is why she doesn’t need Santa’s help.
Key Takeaways
- Beth was kidnapped at birth by Dr. Reese Buckingham.
- Liam and Hope thought she had died at birth.
- They ended up reuniting with her after Reese’s scheme was discovered.
- Hope and Liam’s marriage was tested by Liam’s waffling.
- Beth got her Christmas wish of having her parents back together.
Beth (Jordyn Lynn Ariza) is Hope’s (Annika Noelle) and Liam’s (Scott Clifton) miracle child. Dr. Reese Buckingham (Wayne Brady) kidnapped her at birth and eventually sold her on the black market. He informed her parents that she didn’t survive birth.
She was adopted by Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), who named her Phoebe. Beth was eventually reunited with her parents after Reese’s scheme was exposed. This baby-selling scheme involved many individuals, including Flo (Katrina Bowens), Zoe (Kiara Barnes), and Thomas (Matthew Atkinson).
Most of them kept a secret from Beth’s parents. Thankfully, her discovery felt miraculous to Hope and Liam, whose marriage was tested during this difficult time in their lives. The couple continued to get tested due to Liam’s waffling ways.
The Trauma Lives On For Lope

Liam was always drawn to Steffy, especially when he had issues in his marriage to Hope. The two divorced after Liam caught her kissing Thomas in Rome. She was tired of Liam’s waffling ways and wanted a man who could give her his undivided heart.
However, Hope and Liam faced another traumatic moment at the hands of the Buckinghams. Grace (Cassandra Creech) misdiagnosed Liam in an attempt to extort one million dollars out of him and his dad, Bill (Don Diamont), to repay her ex-husband’s gambling debts.
Bookies were after Grace and her family. So, she had to find a way to raise the money. Hope and Liam learned they were a victim of the Buckinghams once again. This dramatic moment brought their family back together.
Beth Gets an Early Christmas Wish
Some would argue that the reason Liam and Hope got back together was for the sake of their daughter. However, it was the trauma and challenges they endured that made them realize they were stronger together.
Hope and Liam wanted to give their marriage another chance. Liam realized that he could finally give Hope what she’s been wanting all this time. They also agreed that they needed to be together for the sake of their daughter.
But that wasn’t the main reason why they remarried. They realized they still had love for one another. Plus, Steffy was no longer a factor. She’s happily married to Finn (Tanner Novlan).
Ultimately, Beth got her Christmas wish. All she wanted was to have her parents back together, under one roof. She didn’t need Santa Claus’s help because they needed each other, too.
