Kim Matula Confirms She Isn't Returning To 'The Bold and the Beautiful'
Unfortunately though for the fans, the actress has once again confirmed that she isn't planning on coming back in the near future, commenting on one of her own Instagram posts after a fan asked if she would return.
The photo, which featured Matula with friends as they celebrated the final night of Hanukkah, featured a fan asking if she would come back-to which Matula replied in the negative.

"No. I have no current plans to go back at the moment," she wrote. "But I still love the show and miss everyone there."
Fans have been clamoring for any news of a Hope return-whether Matula reprises the role or not-ever since the character departed in December 2014. Matula opted out of her contract at the time, which led to a write-out.
To accommodate the decision not to come back, Hope fell down a cement staircase while pregnant with Wyatt's (Darin Brooks) baby. She then lost the child following the accident, and decided afterwards to cope by moving to Italy. Though there has been mentions of her since she left on the show, she has not been seen back since.
Her departure als paved the way for Hope's other on/off love interest, Liam (Scott Clifton) to reunite with Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) after she came back from Paris.
The Bold and the Beautiful airs Monday-Friday at 1:30 p.m. on CBS.
