The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers reveal that Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) and Katie Logan (Heather Tom) may have a good reason to reevaluate the speed of their relationship soon. B&B fans know Katie and Carter have been taking things slow since they feel like they have all the time in the world.

Of course, this situation with Eric Forrester (John McCook) is proof that life can change in an instant.

When Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis) got back together with Eric, she thought they’d have so many more years together.

Dr. Colin Colby (Justiin Davis) has now confirmed that Eric has just a few months to live instead, so Donna’s struggling to wrap her head around this looming loss.

Eric is mostly focused on living in the moment right now since the present is really all he’s got.

Since Eric doesn’t have much of a future, all he can do is enjoy these last months and try to make the most of them.

Once Carter gets updates on the battle that Eric is so bravely facing, he’ll be proud of him and may view him as a source of inspiration.

Eric’s storyline is a great reminder to seize the day, so that may be exactly what Carter decides to do with Katie.

There’s a good chance Eric and Donna are going to tie the knot before he passes away. Carter might think they have the right idea and decide to pop the question to Katie as well.

Maybe Carter will decide he’s done with the slow progression of this romance and go all in.

Carter might want to follow his heart and embrace the next step, so he may propose marriage to Katie and hope she accepts.

Katie and Carter could end up planning their wedding if they let Eric’s tough news inspire them.

Tomorrow is never guaranteed, so Carter and Katie may stop holding themselves back from the happy ending they deserve.

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Katie and Carter will definitely be around for Eric’s storyline as things get increasingly difficult for him, so stay tuned.
