Introduced in 2002, Hope is the result of an affair between Brooke Logan and Deacon Sharpe, Brooke's ex-son-in-law. Upon Matula's casting, her main storylines revolved around relationships with former love interests Liam and Wyatt Spencer, and rivalry with Steffy Forrester, the latter of which mirrors the rivalry between their mothers, Brooke Logan and Taylor Hayes. Hope is currently in a relationship with Thomas Forrester.
Between the years of 2002 and 2009, the character was played by child actresses, appearing as a young girl around five years old by 2007. On December 4, 2009, it was announced that Hope was to be dramatically aged and portrayed by Kim Matula. Matula signed on as a primary character.

Characterization
The young adult character of Hope was first described as "A polar opposite of what her mother Brooke once was, Hope makes no secret of her more traditional and reserved views on sex and marriage."[10] Matula has described Hope as "unlucky in love."[11] Speaking on the character's dramatic aging and her storyline, head writer Bradley Bell stated: "Aging the character of 'Hope' to a teenager allows us to bring the next generation of 'Logans' to the forefront, as well as play a broader range of the 'Forrester' vs. 'Logan' story. 'Hope's' presence at Forrester Creations, as well as in ‘Brooke’ and ‘Ridge’s’ home, sparks an intense competition between ‘Hope’ and her step-sister 'Steffy' as well as creates new conflict between long-time rivals 'Brooke' and 'Taylor' as each woman is determined to protect her own daughter."[12]
After the character is dramatically aged (SORASed), Hope is almost raped by a photographer, Graham Darros, but she is saved by Nick and Aggie Jones (Sarah Joy Brown). As high school graduation approaches, she meets Oliver Jones, a DJ who becomes her first serious boyfriend. Instantly, the assertive Steffy takes an interest in Oliver, teasing him in front of Hope for a reaction. At a fashion show, Pam Douglas tampers with a sign by removing the letters 'p' and 'e' out of Hope's name to create a sign that reads "Ho Logan." Then, at Hope's graduation party, Brooke has sex with Oliver, claiming she thought it was her husband Ridge behind the mask; this is revealed by a video that Steffy located. It was later revealed the video was tampered with by Justin Barber (Aaron D. Spears) and Liam Cooper (Scott Clifton), who worked for Spencer Publications – who are against Forrester Creations. Despite unresolved feelings, Hope forgives her mother and tries to recover her relationship with Oliver until she meets Liam.
Hope meets Liam Cooper, who was soon revealed as the son of Bill Spencer Jr. Hope and Liam forge a friendship but there is something more there which Oliver sees whenever they are together. Liam and Hope fall deeply in love. Their love grows despite Oliver trying to win back Hope by making her jealous. Liam and Hope's relationship faces hardship when Amber falls pregnant after supposedly sleeping with Liam, and Liam is thought to be the father. Amber manipulates Liam every chance she gets and causes problems for Liam and Hope. Hope tries to move on, but Steffy encourages her to trust Liam. The baby is born, and it is quite evident the baby is not Liam's, turns out to be Marcus's baby instead.
Liam and Hope reunite, and he proposes to her. However, she wanted to use this as a way to promote her fashion line, so their wedding was planned for months ahead. Hope tells Liam she wants to wait to consummate their relationship after marriage, Steffy supports the relationship and Liam (who saves her from drowning when she hits her head after falling in the bath) until she hears so much about the pain Liam is going through. Steffy came to believe that Hope was not right for him and fell in love with Liam. Finally, the night before the wedding, Steffy is conned into collecting Liam from his bachelor party. Steffy says goodbye and good luck to Liam and offers a goodbye kiss. After witnessing the kiss, Hope takes off her engagement ring and leaves it at Liam's house. Hope spoke with Liam by phone and says that she does not want to get married, talk to him or see him again.
Heartbroken and angry, Liam takes the ring and proposes to Steffy, who accepts. Liam and Steffy travel to Aspen, where they are married. Thomas set his eyes on Hope. They shared a kiss despite Hope's unresolved feelings for Liam. Thomas whisks her away to Mexico for a weekend holiday without realizing that he is taking Hope to Liam's honeymoon. Thomas proposes to Hope, who says she is not ready and that she still loves Liam, but feels safe with Thomas. Liam sees Hope and goes after Thomas and Hope on an ATV chase. Steffy chases Liam on another ATV and ends up in the hospital. Bill perpetuates a lie about Steffy's health, bribing the doctors to say that her life was at risk, and she must not be upset. Katie finds out about the lie and 'blames' Steffy.
Liam, betrayed by Bill and Steffy, leaves to find Hope and confesses his love for her. They confront Bill, who reminds him that Steffy is his wife. Liam decides to end his marriage with Steffy, and Steffy refuses to sign annulment papers. Brooke arranges a wedding for Hope and Liam, but Steffy refuses. Hope's first attempt at adultery is traumatized, and she becomes addicted to anxiety pills and illegal medication. Liam is sent to Aspen to cover Steffy's ski line, and Hope accidentally runs into Steffy on the slopes. Steffy is taken to the hospital, and Liam refers to her as his 'wife'. Hope confesses to Liam that she is addicted to pills.
Once the divorce becomes final, Liam and Hope went to Italy at Brooke's insistence to marry. Bill interferes, bringing in Deacon Sharpe so Hope is late to the wedding. Liam, thinking that she had once again walked out on him, turned to Steffy for comfort and asked her to leave with him and marry him again. Hope then arrived at Liam's hotel suite, with Steffy in the bathroom, hearing it all, while Hope told Liam what happened. Steffy insisted that Liam go ahead and marry Hope, so the wedding went off without a hitch. Once back in the States, Hope saw a video of Steffy and Liam kissing and falling onto the bed together on 'Hope's wedding day' and refuses to sign papers making their marriage legal in the US. Hope insists on another wedding. Liam agrees, and Hope plans another wedding at the Forrester Estate, with yet another new designer gown.
The night before the next wedding, Hope and Liam makes plans to spend the evening together – a 'date' night, but Stephanie is not well, and Hope decides to stay with her. Sworn to secrecy by Stephanie about her illness, Hope phones Liam and cancels their 'date'. Liam goes straight to where he knows Steffy will be, with her girlfriends and a DJ stint (working). Liam went off with some people who were unknown to Steffy and returned, drunk and with a red streak in his hair and a removable tattoo. He went to the roof and fell asleep on a lounger. Steffy found him there and stayed on another lounger, waking him, to take him to the wedding venue. Liam went to have a shower and clean up, for the wedding, but Hope heard Steffy's motorcycle and went to see Liam, before he had a chance to wash it off. Outraged by Liam's continued reliance on Steffy, Hope calls off the wedding and her relationship with Liam. Thomas and Hope then becomes friends. On the professional front, Hope cancels the wedding line, making a public announcement that there will be no wedding.
Liam and Steffy then join in a living commitment, but Steffy is called to Paris. Hope tries to seduce Liam. Steffy leaves for Paris, giving Liam time to decide who he wants to be with. He asks Steffy to move out when she returns. Brooke sets up a surprise wedding for Hope and Liam, with the priest from Italy, ready to marry him and Hope. Steffy finds out about the wedding, and shows up and informs Liam about their baby, and if he is following Brooke's plan, he deserves to know before making the commitment. Liam agrees to co-parent with Steffy, but this upsets Hope, and she leaves in tears. Brooke reveals that he is just with Steffy because she got herself pregnant on purpose.
Steffy, who lost her and Liam's child in an accident, asks Hope to be with Liam and give him the family he wants. Hope falls unconscious and is rescued by Wyatt Fuller, the half-brother of Liam. Wyatt and Hope get closer after Liam flies off to see Steffy. Steffy rejects him and Liam comes home and proposes to Hope, who accepts. Wyatt moves in with Liam, but when Liam catches him kissing Hope, Wyatt moves out. After Hope and Liam have an argument, Hope and Wyatt fly to Mexico to get the Hope Diamond for the line, which makes problems for Liam. Hope and Liam get engaged, but tension arises when Hope receives a goodbye video made for Steffy. Liam confronts Hope about her refusal to marry and demands they cut ties with Wyatt and Quinn Artisan Jewelers. On the day of the wedding, Hope finds Liam with Steffy at the cabin. Hope decides to rehire Quinn and goes to Hawaii with Wyatt. Liam follows and asks Hope to marry him immediately, but Hope declines. Hope gives Wyatt a chance but this is short-lived when Wyatt steals the Hope diamond. Hope gives him another chance. After a pregnancy scare, Hope decides to date both brothers, agreeing to choose one of them as her life partner.
Hope chooses Liam and they become engaged, with Wyatt supporting their relationship. Wyatt inherits the Hope for the Future Diamond, which Liam demands she give back. Hope refuses, and lays an ultimatum for Liam to meet at a photo shoot. Wyatt begs Hope not to marry Liam, and Liam misses his deadline. Wyatt proposes to Hope using the diamond, and Hope marries Wyatt. A month later, Hope learns she is pregnant, and Liam asks her to leave Wyatt. Hope explains she wants her child to have a complicated relationship and ends things with Liam. She suffers a miscarriage and leaves L.A., leaving in tears and visiting Brooke in Milan, Italy.
In Milan, according to Hope, she 'dated' and had a 'few relationships', but she could not get over Liam. When Brooke and Ridge married again, Hope was invited home, for the wedding and decided to stay. She made an agreement with Ridge, to stay out of Steffy's marriage with Liam, and she could work again on her 'label' HFTF.
Hope returns to Los Angeles in January 2018, at Ridge's request, to surprise her mother. She makes her intentions known of returning to Forrester. When Hope meets Sally Spectra II, she finds out that Liam and Steffy's marriage is in trouble and so she visits Liam to offer her support and friendship. Hope learns of Steffy and Bill sleeping together. Hope later starts to fall in love with Liam again. Bill manipulates Liam to believe that Bill and Steffy are involved; Liam leaves Steffy and their daughter, Kelly, and proposes to Hope. Liam decides to give Steffy another chance for the sake of Kelly, but Hope soon discovers she is pregnant from the one night she and Liam spent together before their aborted wedding. Steffy catches Liam and Hope making out behind the scenes of the Hope for the Future fashion show, and she breaks up with him; Steffy steps back and gives Liam to Hope because she can no longer be involved in a triangle for Liam's heart, and she needs to do what is best for Kelly.
