Soapdom is delighted to confirm that actress Karla Mosley is joining The Bold and the Beautiful in the contract role of "Maya Avant" and actor Lawrence Saint-Victor is joining B&B as well in the contract role of "Carter Walton."

Executive Producer and Head Writer Bradley P. Bell officially announced the news Wednesday, December 13, 2012.

Both Mosley and St. Victor are veteran CBS soap stars, playing a married couple on Guiding Light. Their characters are not related on B&B.

Susan Flannery has played the dynamic and oftentimes manipulative Stephanie Forrester on The Bold and the Beautiful for 26 years since the show debuted in 1987.  

She has been though several marriages (several times to the same man, namely Eric Forrester played by John McCook), suffered bouts of cancer, befriended a homeless woman, not to mention rocking the Los Angeles fashion world with numerous knock out collections. 

She has fought and befriended and fought again the character of Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang). She has given heartfelt advice to many a fashion colleague, then turned to stab them in the back.
