B&B casts Diamond White as Zoe's sister

Hot damn! The Bold and the Beautiful has tapped popular Empire star Diamond White for the new role of Paris Buckingham, sister to Zoe Buckingham (Kiara Barnes).

The Bold and the Beautiful's executive producer and head writer, Bradley Bell, teased that the CBS soap opera would possibly be bringing Zoe's (Kiara Barnes) sister to the canvas, and he delivered. News just broke that Empire star Diamond White has been signed to the brand-new contract role of Paris Buckingham.

Deadline reports that the actress will be taping her first episode of B&B this Friday, September 18, with a first airdate of Friday, November 2. Unfortunately, no details have been released about what might bring Paris to the canvas -- but Bell previously teased that the new character will play heavily in storyline with Zoe, Zende [Delon de Metz], and Carter [Lawrence Saint-Victor].
