When Darin Brooks, who played Wyatt Spencer on The Bold and the Beautiful, announced his departure in late 2023, it left fans stunned. Wyatt had become a beloved character since his introduction, known for his sharp wit and complex relationships. However, as with many soap operas, nothing is ever set in stone, and Brooks’ exit might not be the end of Wyatt’s journey in the soap world.

Although no official reason was given for Brooks' departure, the most plausible explanation seems to be the expiration of his contract. In soap operas, when an actor’s name disappears from the opening credits, it usually signals their exit. Brooks had been a staple of the show for 12 seasons, but as his storyline began to lose momentum, it became clear that his time on the show might be coming to an end.
Wyatt’s character was heavily tied to his romantic relationships with Florence "Flo" Fulton and Sally Spectra.
When these characters left the show—Sally in 2020 and Flo in 2022—Wyatt’s presence began to diminish. By 2023, his appearances were sparse, and Brooks confirmed his departure with a heartfelt message on Instagram, expressing his gratitude for the decade-long experience.
