Kim Matula is not renewing her contract and will be leaving CBS daytime drama The Bold and the Beautiful. The Emmy-nominated actress has played Hope Logan since 2010. B&B announced the news on the show's official Twitter page: "We wish #KimMatula the best as she moves on to other opportunities. We love Kim & she will always be a part of the #BoldandBeautiful family."
Scott Clifton, who plays Liam Spencer on the soap, also tweeted about Matula's departure: "Hey guys. It's true, Kim has elected not to renew her contract with B&B. We're so sad to see her go, and yet thrilled to see her shine."
There are no plans to recast at this time, according to a B&B spokesperson.
Matula and Clifton appeared on CBS' The Talk on Wednesday afternoon, along with co-stars Ashleigh Brewer (Ivy) and Darin Brooks (Wyatt), to preview B&B's upcoming Amsterdam episodes. Watch their segment below:
