Lawrence St. Victor has been a key part of The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) for over a decade, portraying the character of Carter Walton. However, recent developments have left fans questioning his future on the show. In a surprising turn, St. Victor announced that he has booked a major role in an upcoming film, Higher Love, which has already started to generate buzz. While the news of his new project has excited fans, it also raises the question: Could this be the end of Carter Walton’s time on B&B?
