Once the divorce becomes final, Liam and Hope went to Italy at Brooke's insistence to remarry. Bill tries to shanghai the wedding by bringing in Deacon Sharpe, which causes Hope to be late to the wedding and Liam to think that she had once again walked out on him. He turned to Steffy for comfort and asked her to leave with him and marry him again. Hope went to Liam's hotel suite, however, and Steffy hid in the bathroom 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 into bed together on Hope's wedding day and out of that hurt, refuses to sign papers making their marriage legal in the US, wanting another wedding. Liam agrees, and Hope plans another wedding at the Forrester home.
