BRIGHTHOUSE FUNDS TRUST II		SUMMARY PROSPECTUS April 29, 2022

Brighthouse/Wellington Balanced Portfolio

Class A, Class B and Class E Shares

Investment Objectives

Long term capital appreciation with some current income.

Fees and Expenses of the Portfolio

The following table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Portfolio. The table and the Example below do not reflect the fees, expenses or withdrawal charges imposed by your variable life insurance policy or variable annuity contract (the "Contract"). See the Contract prospectus for a description of those fees, expenses and charges. If Contract expenses were reflected, the fees and expenses in the table and Example would be higher.

Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment)-None

Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

		Class A			Class B			Class E
Management Fee			0.45%				0.45%				0.45%
Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees			None				0.25%				0.15%
Other Expenses			0.06%				0.06%				0.06%
Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses			0.51%				0.76%				0.66%

Example

The following Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Portfolio with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Portfolio for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Portfolio's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

		1 Year			3 Years			5 Years			10 Years
Class A		$	52			$	164			$	285			$	640
Class B		$	78			$	243			$	422			$	942
Class E		$	67			$	211			$	368			$	822

Portfolio Turnover

The Portfolio pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs. These costs, which are not reflected in annual portfolio operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Portfolio's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio's portfolio turnover rate was 250% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

Wellington Management Company LLP ("Wellington Management" or "Subadviser"), subadviser to the Portfolio, invests the Portfolio's assets, under normal circumstances, in (1) U.S. and foreign debt securities and (2) equity securities of U.S. companies and, to a lesser extent, of foreign companies. The amount of assets invested in fixed income securities and equity securities will depend upon economic conditions, the general level of common stock prices, interest rates and other relevant considerations. Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio invests approximately 40% of its assets in fixed income securities and approximately 60% in equity securities.

The fixed income portion of the Portfolio invests primarily in U.S. and foreign investment grade debt securities denominated in U.S. dollars such as government bonds, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities. In addition, opportunistic investments may be established in higher-risk/higher-return segments of the global bond market. These segments may include allocating up to 20% of the fixed income portfolio to

non-U.S. dollar denominated issues and currencies, and allocating up to 20% of the fixed income portfolio to debt obligations rated below investment grade (also known as "junk bonds"). Additional Portfolio assets will not be allocated to these segments when the combination of these two allocations, plus any bank loans, combine to exceed 30% of Portfolio assets allocated to fixed income securities.

The fixed income portion of the Portfolio is managed according to a disciplined investment process that combines the best aspects of both team-based strategy development and individual portfolio manager flexibility. The team sets interest rate duration and sector allocation strategy guidelines. Once the team has established the guidelines, the fixed income portfolio managers turn to Wellington Management's in-house fixed income credit analysts for their bottom-up analysis and security recommendations. The fixed income portfolio managers then consider analyst recommendations in making final buy and sell decisions. Risk is monitored by Wellington Management throughout the investment process and managed at the security, sector, and portfolio levels.

The fixed income portion of the Portfolio also may utilize derivatives such as futures, including credit default index futures, options, forwards, or swaps, including credit default swaps, and may invest in mortgage dollar rolls. The fixed income portion's average duration ranges between +/- 1.5 years of the average duration of the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

The equity portion of the Portfolio invests primarily in equity securities of U.S. companies and, to a lesser extent, of foreign companies. Equity securities may include common stocks, preferred stocks, securities convertible into common or preferred stocks, American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"), rights and warrants.

The Portfolio may also invest in forward commitments, when-issued and delayed delivery securities and securities issued pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933.

In managing the equity portion of the Portfolio, Wellington Management allocates the Portfolio's assets across a variety of industries, selecting companies in each industry based on the research of Wellington Management's team of global industry analysts. The Portfolio typically seeks to maintain representation in each major industry represented by broad-based, large cap U.S. equity indices. The Portfolio may, from time to time, emphasize one or more sectors. Wellington Management may invest up to 15% of the Portfolio's total net assets allocated to equity securities in securities of foreign issuers and non-dollar denominated securities.

In analyzing a prospective investment for the equity portion of the Portfolio, Wellington Management utilizes a "bottom-up" approach, which is the use of fundamental analysis to identify specific securities for purchase or sale. Fundamental analysis of a company involves the assessment of a variety of factors, including the company's business environment, management quality, balance sheet, income statement, anticipated earnings, revenues and dividends, and other related measures or indicators of valuation and growth potential.

Principal Risks

As with all mutual funds, there is no guarantee that the Portfolio will achieve its investment objective. You could lose money by investing in the Portfolio. An investment in the Portfolio through a Contract is not a deposit or obligation of, or guaranteed by, any bank, and is not federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board, or any other agency of the U.S. Government.

The value of your investment in the Portfolio may be affected by one or more of the following risks, which are described in more detail in "Principal Risks of Investing in the Portfolio" in the Prospectus. The significance of any specific risk to an investment in the Portfolio will vary over time, depending on the composition of the Portfolio, market conditions, and other factors. You should read all of the risk information presented below carefully, because any one or more of these risks could cause the Portfolio's return or the price of its shares to decrease or could cause the Portfolio's yield to fluctuate.

Market Risk. The Portfolio's share price can fall because of, among other things, a decline in the market as a whole, deterioration in the prospects for a particular industry or company, changes in general economic conditions, such as prevailing interest rates or investor sentiment, or other factors including terrorism, war, natural disasters and the spread of infectious illness including epidemics or pandemics such as the COVID-19 outbreak. Significant disruptions to the financial markets could adversely affect the liquidity and volatility of securities held by the Portfolio. The Portfolio has exposure to financial instruments tied to LIBOR. The impact from the discontinuation of LIBOR and transition to replacement rates remains uncertain, and might, among other things, lead to increased volatility and illiquidity in markets for instruments tied to LIBOR. This could result in losses to the Portfolio and may adversely affect the Portfolio's performance or net asset value.

Market Capitalization Risk. Investing primarily in issuers in one market capitalization category (large, medium or small) carries the risk that due to current market conditions that category will be out of favor with investors. Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges or attain the high growth rate of successful smaller companies. Stocks of medium and small capitalization companies may be more volatile than those of larger companies due to, among other things, narrower product lines, more limited financial resources and fewer experienced managers. In addition, there is typically less publicly available information about small capitalization companies, and their stocks may have a more limited trading market than stocks of larger companies.

Interest Rate Risk. The value of the Portfolio's investments in fixed income securities may decline when prevailing interest rates rise or increase when interest rates fall. The longer a security's

maturity or duration, the greater its value will change in response to changes in interest rates. The interest earned on the Portfolio's investments in fixed income securities may decline when prevailing interest rates fall. During periods of very low or negative interest rates, the Portfolio may be unable to maintain positive returns or pay dividends to Portfolio shareholders. Additionally, under certain market conditions in which interest rates are low or negative, the Portfolio may have a very low, or even negative yield. A low or negative yield would cause the Portfolio to lose money and the net asset value of the Portfolio's shares to decline in certain conditions and over certain time periods. Changes in prevailing interest rates, particularly sudden changes, may also increase the level of volatility in fixed income and other markets, increase redemptions in the Portfolio's shares and reduce the liquidity of the Portfolio's debt securities and other income-producing holdings. Changes in interest rate levels are caused by a variety of factors, such as central bank monetary policies, inflation rates, and general economic and market conditions.

Credit and Counterparty Risk. The value of the Portfolio's investments may be adversely affected if a security's credit rating is downgraded or an issuer of an investment held by the Portfolio fails to pay an obligation on a timely basis, otherwise defaults or is perceived by other investors to be less creditworthy. If a counterparty to a derivatives or other transaction with the Portfolio files for bankruptcy, becomes insolvent, or otherwise becomes unable or unwilling to honor its obligation to the Portfolio, the Portfolio may experience significant losses or delays in realizing income on or recovering collateral and may lose all or a part of the income from the transaction.

Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities Risk. The value of investments in mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities is subject to interest rate risk and credit and counterparty risk. These securities are also subject to the risk that issuers will prepay the principal more quickly or more slowly than expected, which could cause the Portfolio to invest the proceeds in less attractive investments or increase the volatility of their prices. To the extent mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities held by the Portfolio are backed by lower rated securities, such as sub-prime obligations, or are subordinated to other interests in the same mortgage or asset pool, the likelihood of the Portfolio receiving payments of principal or interest may be substantially limited.

Loan Investment Risk. Investments in loans expose the Portfolio to interest rate risk and the credit and counterparty risk of the underlying borrowers of those loans. No active trading market may exist for certain loans. Moreover, adverse market conditions may impair the liquidity of some actively traded loans. The Portfolio may have difficulty valuing and selling loans that are illiquid or are less actively traded. Loans are also subject to the risk that borrowers will prepay the principal more quickly than expected, which could cause the Portfolio to reinvest the repaid principal in investments with lower yields, thereby exposing the Portfolio to a lower rate of return. There may be a limited amount of public information about the loans in which the Portfolio invests. Purchases and sales of loans are generally subject to contractual restrictions that may impede the Portfolio's ability to buy or sell loans and may negatively affect the transaction price. Loan transactions may take longer than seven days to settle, and the Portfolio may hold cash, sell investments, or temporarily borrow from banks or other lenders in order to meet short-term liquidity needs. The Portfolio may not be entitled to rely on the anti-fraud protections of the federal securities laws with respect to any loans it owns in the event of fraud or misrepresentation by a borrower. The Portfolio's purchase and sale of loans may involve the risk of market manipulation by a borrower. Any investments in below investment grade loans and other debt securities expose a portfolio to greater market risk and credit and counterparty risk than a portfolio that invests only in investment grade loans and debt securities. Lower rated securities also may be subject to greater price volatility than higher rated investments.

High Yield Debt Security Risk. High yield debt securities, or "junk" bonds, may be more susceptible to market risk and credit and counterparty risk than investment grade debt securities because issuers of high yield debt securities are less secure financially and their securities are more sensitive to downturns in the economy. In addition, the secondary market for high yield debt securities may not be as liquid as that for higher rated debt securities. High-yield debt securities range from those for which the prospect for repayment of principal and interest is predominantly speculative to those which are currently in default on principal or interest payments or whose issuers are in bankruptcy.

Foreign Investment Risk. Investments in foreign securities, whether direct or indirect, tend to be more volatile and less liquid than investments in U.S. securities because, among other things, they involve risks relating to political, social, economic and other developments abroad, as well as risks resulting from differences between the regulations and reporting standards and practices to which U.S. and foreign issuers are subject. To the extent foreign securities are denominated in foreign currencies, their values may be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates. All of the risks of investing in foreign securities are typically increased by investing in emerging market countries. To the extent the Portfolio invests in foreign sovereign debt securities, it is subject to additional risks.

Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions Risk. Mortgage dollar roll transactions are subject to the risk that the value of the securities the Portfolio is obligated to purchase will decline below the agreed upon purchase price. In addition, the Portfolio will incur higher transaction costs if its mortgage dollar roll transactions lead to higher portfolio turnover. These transactions also may subject the Portfolio to a form of investment leverage, which may increase the Portfolio's volatility and may require the Portfolio to liquidate portfolio securities when it is not advantageous to do so.

Credit Default Swap Risk. Credit default swaps may increase credit and counterparty risk (depending on whether the Portfolio is the buyer or seller of the swaps), and they may be illiquid. Credit default swaps also may be difficult to value, especially in the event of market disruptions. Credit default swap transactions in

Brighthouse/Wellington Balanced Portfolio

which the Portfolio is the seller may require that the Portfolio sell portfolio securities when it is not advantageous to do so in order to satisfy its obligations or to meet segregation requirements.

Derivatives Risk. The Portfolio may invest in derivatives to obtain investment exposure, enhance return or "hedge" or protect its assets from an unfavorable shift in the value or rate of a reference instrument. Derivatives can significantly increase the Portfolio's exposure to market risk, credit and counterparty risk and other risks. Derivatives may be illiquid and difficult to value. Because of their complex nature, some derivatives may not perform as intended. As a result, the Portfolio may not realize the anticipated benefits from a derivative it holds or it may realize losses. Certain derivatives have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the initial investment. Derivative transactions may create investment leverage, which increases the Portfolio's volatility and may require the Portfolio to liquidate portfolio securities when it is not advantageous to do so. Government regulation of derivative instruments may limit or prevent the Portfolio from using such instruments as part of its investment strategies, which could adversely affect the Portfolio.

Forward and Futures Contract Risk. The successful use of forward and futures contracts will depend upon the Subadviser's skill and experience with respect to such instruments and are subject to special risk considerations. The primary risks associated with the use of forward and futures contracts include (i) the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the instruments held by the Portfolio and the price of the forward or futures contract; (ii) possible lack of a liquid secondary market for a forward or futures contract and the resulting inability to close a forward or futures contract when desired; (iii) losses caused by unanticipated market movements, which are potentially unlimited; (iv) the Subadviser's inability to predict correctly the direction of securities prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates and other economic factors; (v) the possibility that the counterparty will default in the performance of its obligations; (vi) if the Portfolio has insufficient cash, it may have to sell securities to meet daily variation margin requirements, and the Portfolio may have to sell securities at a time when it is disadvantageous to do so; (vii) the possibility that the Portfolio may be delayed or prevented from recovering margin or other amounts deposited with a futures commission merchant or futures clearinghouse; (viii) the possibility that position or trading limits will preclude the Subadviser from taking positions in certain futures contracts on behalf of the Portfolio; and (ix) the risks typically associated with foreign investments to the extent the Portfolio invests in futures contracts traded on markets outside the United States.

Forward Commitment, When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Securities Risk. Investments in forward commitments and when-issued and delayed delivery securities are subject to the risk that the value or yield of the securities the Portfolio is obligated to purchase will decline below the agreed upon purchase price or expected yield before the securities are actually issued or delivered. These investments may create a form of investment leverage, which may increase the Portfolio's volatility and may require the Portfolio to liquidate portfolio securities when it is not advantageous to do so.

Convertible Securities Risk. Investments in convertible securities are subject to market risk, credit and counterparty risk, interest rate risk and other risks associated with investments in equity and fixed income securities, depending on the price of the underlying security and the conversion price. In addition, a convertible security may be bought back by the issuer, or the Portfolio may be forced to convert a convertible security, at a time and a price that is disadvantageous to the Portfolio.

Portfolio Turnover Risk. The investment techniques and strategies utilized by the Portfolio might result in a high degree of portfolio turnover. High portfolio turnover rates will increase the Portfolio's transaction costs, which can adversely affect the Portfolio's performance.

Rule 144A and Other Exempted Securities Risk. In the U.S. market, private placements may typically be sold only to qualified institutional buyers, or qualified purchasers, as applicable. If an insufficient number of eligible buyers is interested in purchasing privately placed and other securities or instruments exempt from Securities and Exchange Commission registration (collectively "private placements") at a particular time, this could adversely affect the marketability of such investments and the Portfolio might be unable to dispose of them promptly or at reasonable prices, subjecting the Portfolio to liquidity risk. Even the Portfolio's holdings of liquid private placements may increase the level of Portfolio illiquidity if eligible buyers are unable or unwilling to purchase them at a particular time. The information that issuers of Rule 144A eligible securities are required to disclose to potential investors is much less extensive than that required of public companies and is not publicly available, and issuers of Rule 144A eligible securities can require recipients of the offering information (such as the Portfolio) to agree contractually to keep the information confidential, which could also adversely affect the Portfolio's ability to dispose of the security.

Focused Investment Risk. Substantial investments in a relatively small number of securities or issuers, or a particular market, industry, group of industries, country, region, group of countries, asset class or sector make the Portfolio's performance more susceptible to any single economic, market, political or regulatory occurrence affecting those particular securities or issuers or that particular market, industry, group of industries, country, region, group of countries, asset class or sector than a portfolio that invests more broadly.

Past Performance

The information below provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Portfolio by showing changes in the Portfolio's performance from year to year and how the Portfolio's average annual returns over time compare with those of broad-based securities market indexes and a blended index. Note that the results in the bar chart and table do not include the effect of Contract charges. If these Contract charges had been included, performance would have been lower. As with all mutual funds, past returns are not a prediction of future returns. Effective February 3, 2014, Wellington Management became the subadviser
