Getting involved with Thomas was one of the worst mistakes of Zoe’s time on “The Bold and the Beautiful.” He didn’t truly love her the way she deserved because he was still obsessed with his ex-wife Hope. Despite the numerous red flags in front of her, Zoe agreed to marry Thomas. But, she came to her senses before the wedding and teamed up with Hope to expose Thomas as a liar (via Soaps.com).
After her engagement to Thomas ended, Zoe entered a new relationship with the Forrester family lawyer and family friend, Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor). This was another love connection for Zoe that moved quickly and came crashing down just as fast. Although this time, the end of the relationship resulted from her actions. When Zende Forrester Dominguez (Delon de Metz) returned to town, Zoe was smitten and wanted to see if they had a chance. At the same time, Zoe’s sister Paris arrived, much to her older sister’s dismay. Zende immediately took an interest in Paris which drove Zoe wild (via Showbiz CheatSheet).
Zoe didn’t end up with either man because not only did Zende rebuff her advances, but Carter dumped her, took her back, and then cheated on her. Carter’s affair with Quinn Forrester, played by Rena Sofer, devastated Zoe, and she packed up her things and left town for good (via Soap Opera Spy). Paris remained in Los Angeles, and she found herself entangled with three out of four men tied to her sister.
