There’s no word yet from B&B producers on whether the character of Zoe will be recast. Viewers know she’s currently working overtime trying to win back the affections of her ex-fiancé Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint Victor). Plus, her sister Paris Buckingham (Diamond White) is also on the B&B canvas.
However, if Zoe doesn’t return for awhile, it could open the door to a potential romance between Quinn Forrester (Rena Sofer) and Carter. These two had an eye opening conversation the other day. And then Quinn got an eyeful when Carter came downstairs half-dressed.
