‘Bold & Beautiful’ Matthew Atkinson Hints At Return As Thomas

Bold & Beautiful fans are excited and wondering if Matthew Atkinson is making a comeback to the soap as Thomas Forrester. It’s been quite some time since he appeared on the show. He left for Europe after Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) rejected his marriage proposal more than once. He returned briefly to say that he was engaged to Paris Buckingham. After that, he left and hasn’t returned since. Now, a post on social media seems to hint that Thomas’s return is imminent. What did he share?

Bold & Beautiful: Is Thomas Coming Home?

The last time fans saw Thomas, he was about to marry Dr. Grace Buckingham’s daughter, Paris. Now that Grace has paid off whoever was threatening her daughter, she is turning herself in for scamming Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) and lying about Liam Spencer’s (Scott Clifton) brain tumor. It makes sense that Paris might return, and maybe Thomas will come with her.

Some think that since Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) is out of the picture on maternity leave, he may be coming back to help fill the void. Right now, there is no known date for Steffy’s comeback.

He might be coming back to throw a wrench in Hope’s life as well. Or, maybe he’s returning for one of his dad’s weddings to either Brooke or Taylor.

Actor Matthew Atkinson appeared to hint that Thomas might be coming home. He went to Instagram on Monday evening to share a reel that has fans very excited. In the video, he is standing outside the Bold & Beautiful studio. Matthew is playing cornhole, and his caption reads, “Second time’s a charm.”

Of course, everyone thinks this means he’s coming back.

What Are Fans Saying?

Bold & Beautiful fans went straight to the comments to share their thoughts on the possible return. Here is what some of them said,

• “I hope this means you’re coming back to Bold and Beautiful, you have been missed. We need a Thope reunion!”
• “I hope this means Thomas is coming back to Bold and Beautiful, please please please❣️❣️”
• “Are you coming back? We NEED some excitement 😂”
