Days of Our Lives 2-week spoilers for May 26 – June 6th, 2025 see Xander Kiriakis (Paul Telfer) arrested. We are going to see John Black (Drake Hogestyn) passing away, and Will Horton (Chandler Massey) is back among others.

Monday, May 26th is Memorial Day, but we have a brand new episode of Days anyway. Diving in, we’ve got Marlena (Deidre Hall) at John’s bedside. He is in dire shape, and she’s absolutely distraught that her soulmate is in such terrible condition.

And Steve (Stephen Nichols) says John is a hero for saving those meds so they can get Bo Brady (Peter Reckell) back on his feet and save his life. Things looked really dire for Bo as well on Friday, but we should be getting good news about him this week. Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) is trying very hard to save him.

But John’s injuries are extensive and his life expectancy isn’t good. And we know, of course, that Drake Hogestyn was alive at the time they filmed this and he signed off on everything. The plan was for John to pass away, but in such a way that they could bring him back later if Drake recovered. And of course, we know that he didn’t. This week and next week are going to be just really, really hard, I think, for longtime Days fans. So have your tissues on hand. Already on Friday, it was tearful. It was good material.

Alex (Robert Scott Wilson) faces questions from DA Belle about Xander and the brutal attack on Phillip. Then on Thursday, May 29th, Julie and Maggie do some catching up. She’s going to tell Julie about Xander and Sarah’s split. And I wonder if Maggie will also tell Julie that she is pretty certain that Xander beat Phillip.

Belle updates Jada (Elia Cantu) on her findings. And it looks like she gives her a green light to proceed because Jada arrests Xander. And that’s obviously for Phillip’s assault as Kayla and Brady watch him hauled off. And yeah, looks like Alex might have told the truth, which is fair.

Hospital Board Drama and Kristen’s Denial on Days of Our Lives

Xander and EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) both made their pitch to the hospital board, and it’s a waiting game to see what offer they accept, but Jada putting cuffs on Xander throws a wrinkle into it and could take Titan out of the running. EJ may win by default.

The week of June 2nd through the 6th, we should see Salem losing John Black as he succumbs to his injuries from the lab explosion. Everyone is gathering from Will (Chandler Massey) to Carrie. Paul and more are soon joined by more family and friends. Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney)’s coming.

Hope Brady (Kristian Alfonso) and Ciara Brady (Victoria Konefal) and Bo should be on his feet soon after getting his miracle cure thanks to John’s heroism. We will soon say goodbye in a very sad funeral. Some of these scenes were in the big Day of Days promo. I think they’re some of the last scenes that still have to play out from the promo.

And there’s a scene in particular I’m thinking of with people outside and Brady offering a toast to John’s memory. Get a big old box of Kleenex because these two weeks are going to be absolutely heartbreaking. EJ’s confrontation with Kristen could trigger more memories to come loose that night.

Did he see Rachel right after he and Johnny were arguing? EJ clearly feels like his son knows something he’s not saying, but I’m not convinced that Johnny actually fired the gun at EJ. I don’t think so. We’ll find out. More to tell. And Johnny may have no idea who tried to kill his dad but is just feeling guilty for even holding a gun on him. Marlena is crushed, and friends and family rally around her.

But if Xander is on the loose, which I’m guessing he will be, we’ll see him fighting for his daughter. But having given up on Sarah, Xander indeed feels like little Victoria is all he has left.

With another DNA test pending, the truth about the baby’s paternity will soon be revealed.

Even Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) herself might get caught in the crossfire. The central question remains: when will Sophia find peace and move on? It seems unlikely unless she either ends up with Tate or behind bars.

From Desperation to Deliberate Malice: Sophia’s Troubling Transformation on Days of our Lives

While Sophia’s previous actions, like the fake adoption lies, could be attributed to desperation—pregnancy hormones, giving birth alone, and panic—her current behavior is far more calculated and malicious. Her actions towards Holly and Johnny are deliberate and premeditated, a stark contrast to her earlier panic-driven decisions.

The Roots of Sophia’s Grudge: Holly, Tate, and Past Betrayals

Sophia’s animosity towards Holly stems from Tate’s arrival in Salem. Tate was initially smitten with Holly, but her drug use led to his imprisonment, a situation exacerbated by her lies. This created a rift between Tate and Holly, forcing them to sneak around. Sophia, unfortunately, became entangled in their deceptions. Tate, it seems, used Sophia as a cover to see Holly, leading to a confrontation at their junior prom. Despite the exposure of their relationship, Sophia continued to exploit the cracks in Tate and Holly’s relationship, ultimately leading to her pregnancy with Tate’s child.

Days of our Lives: Paternity Questions and Emerging Threats

Adding another layer of intrigue, some fans speculate that Sophia may have lied about the paternity of her son, suggesting a possible affair with Aaron Greene (Louis Tomeo). This theory gained traction after Sophia left Tate when he called out Holly’s name during intimacy. If Aaron is indeed the father, it’s likely Sophia was either unaware or chose to ignore it. Meanwhile, paternity test results, obtained with the help of Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) and Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols), are pending. Sophia would undoubtedly be in a panic if she knew about Brady’s investigation, potentially leading her to scheme against him as well.

The Adoption Plot: Sophia’s Revenge on Johnny and Chanel

Sophia’s latest scheme targets Johnny and Chanel’s attempt to adopt the “firehouse baby.” Overhearing their plans, Sophia was enraged, blaming Johnny for her past misfortunes, particularly his last-minute withdrawal from their initial adoption plans. She views his actions as the catalyst for her deceitful behavior on Days of our Lives.

Escalating Deception: False Accusations and Ruined Reputations

Despite Johnny’s apology for backing out of the adoption, Sophia retaliated by sending an anonymous, scathing email to social services, falsely claiming to be the birthmother and opposing the adoption. She further escalated her campaign by falsely accusing Johnny of being a “perv” and having an inappropriate relationship with a student, leveraging information about Holly’s computer issues. These accusations could jeopardize Johnny’s job, Holly’s academic career at Salem University, and the adoption itself.

The Dorm Room Confrontation: A Calculated Move Against Holly and Johnny

Sophia’s revenge plot then shifted to Holly. Aware of her past crush on Johnny, Sophia saw an opportunity to simultaneously exact revenge on Holly and Johnny while potentially getting closer to Tate. She confronted Holly and Arianna Horton (Marissa Reyes) their dorm room. Holly, who had been drinking due to a misunderstanding fueled by Sophia’s lies about hooking up with Tate, became ill and fled.

The Drunken Photos: A New Low for Sophia

After Holly left, Sophia callously poured more alcohol into her drink, exacerbating her intoxication. While Ari helped a passed-out Holly to bed, Sophia seized the moment to steal Holly’s phone and take compromising, sexually suggestive photos. It’s highly suspected that Sophia intends to send these photos to Johnny, further manipulating the situation.

Melinda’s Warnings and Sophia’s Unstoppable Drive

Melinda’s attempts to reason with Sophia were futile, as Sophia continued her ranting about Johnny and Chanel’s adoption plans, appearing increasingly unhinged. The potential legal repercussions for both Sophia and Melinda, stemming from their previous involvement in the fake adoption scheme, seem to weigh little on Sophia. Her obsession with Tate appears to be the driving force, and she shows no signs of stopping her destructive behavior, even if Tate remains unattainable.

Days of our Lives: Salem’s New Jan Spears?

Sophia’s relentless pursuit of Tate and her increasingly erratic behavior draw comparisons to Jan Spears, a notorious Salem villain known for her decades-long obsession with Shawn Brady (Brandon Beemer). Sophia’s fixation on Tate mirrors Jan’s past fixation, suggesting a similar path of destructive obsession. Despite pleas from Ari and Melinda to move on, Sophia seems unlikely to change her course.

This week kicks off with Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) wondering if her daughter Stephanie is nervous about moving in with Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson).

Meanwhile, Abe Carver (James Reynolds) and Julie Williams (Susan Seaforth Hayes) are seen chatting with Foster, the owner of the local bookstore. Their discussion about paperwork sparks speculation. It’s that Abe and Julie might be considering acquiring the bookshop together. Foster experiences a sudden medical incident, clutching his head in excruciating pain.

The possibilities range from an aneurysm or stroke to a severe migraine or tumor. Julie rushes Foster to University Hospital. Where Kayla takes over his care. Kayla later updates Stephanie and Julie on Foster’s condition. Julie reassures Foster, promising to manage the bookstore while he focuses on his health.

Days of our Lives: Family Bonds and Business Decisions

Abe also spends quality time bonding with his son Theo Carver (Tyler Andrews) over a meal at the Brady Pub. Paulina Price (Jackee Harry) encourages Theo to accept a job offer at DiMera Enterprises, a proposal from Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis). However, Abe may have reservations, recalling how his late wife, Lexi Carver (Renee Jones), suffered due to toxins in the DiMera tunnels.

He has consistently advised Theo to be discerning about the DiMera ide of his family. Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) and Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) are excitedly discussing their adoption plans at their apartment. However, Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) appears alarmed upon overhearing their conversation about the baby.

Seemingly concerned about the adoption happening so close to Tate Black (Leo Howard). Sophia later meets with Melinda Trask (Tina Huang), appearing stressed. It’s speculated that Sophia might confide in Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) about her worries regarding Johnny and Chanel adoption plans, potentially leading to a new scheme from Melinda.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Romance, Schemes, and Blackout Drama

On Thursday, Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) and Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) share a romantic moment, contemplating a new, private meeting place away from prying eyes, especially Felicity Greene’s (Kennedy Garcia). The proximity to the Horton house, where Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) lives, presents a complication. The possibility of them using a room at the Salem Inn is raised.

Adding to the drama, Cat’s brother, Dr. Mark Greene (Jonah Robinson), who previously attempted to harm Chad on Clyde Weston’s (James Read) orders, is up for parole and may return to Salem, potentially staying with Cat. Chad is unlikely to welcome this development. Meanwhile, Sophia continues her scheming on Days of our Lives, targeting Chanel and Johnny.

She may attempt to sabotage their adoption by making it appear as though Johnny has acted inappropriately with Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis). Sophia plans to take pictures of Holly during a blackout and send them to Johnny, intending to create conflict. The underlying motive seems to be Sophia’s concern that if the baby is adopted into Tate’s extended family, questions might arise about the baby’s resemblance to a child Tate and Sophia might have had.

Days of our Lives: Bell Gives EJ a Piece of her Mind on Days of Our Lives

EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) finds himself cornered by Belle Black (Martha Madison), who has much to say following their breakup after Johnny’s trial. They end up together in an elevator when a blackout hits Salem, leaving the possibility of sparks flying despite the power outage.

Days of our Lives Spoilers: Blackouts, Stalkers, and Lingering Chemistry

Friday brings more blackout drama. Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez), Brady Black (Eric Martsolf), and Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) find themselves trapped together.

And share a passionate kiss, reigniting their chemistry.

However, one of them might hesitate to move too quickly from estrangement to intimacy. Also, Chanel and Felicity receive help from Alex during the blackout, possibly getting stuck in Sweet Bits. Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) may also be trapped in the under-construction area of the hospital, where a secret science lab and the Tom Horton Free Clinic are being built.

Unraveling Mysteries and Escalating Tensions on Days of our Lives

The week of September 29th through October 3rd promises more intrigue. EJ may question Cat’s inquiries, while Chad remains suspicious of her supposed ex-boyfriend. As Chad and Cat’s relationship becomes more defined, the need for a new cover story arises.

Jeremy Horton (Trevor Donovan) is likely the one stalking Stephanie, though his face may not be revealed for another week. Sophia continues her reign of manipulation, drawing parallels to Jan Spears. The central question is whether Johnny and Chanel’s relationship will survive Sophia’s latest scheme, especially after she interfered with Holly and Tate.

Marlena’s symptoms are worsening. And Rachel is expected to spiral out of control soon. Alice Halsey who has finished taping her role as Laura in “Little House on the Prairie,” may be written out temporarily with a trip to Bayview Mental Hospital as her character spirals.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Tony’s Plans for Theo, Stephanie’s Suspicions, and Salem’s Widows

On Wednesday, September 10th, we are going to find out that Tony sent the family jet to bring Theo from South Africa to Salem. Tony has a project proposal for his nephew, Theo, that he wanted to discuss in person. I wonder if Tony actually wants Theo to take over as DiMera CEO, or maybe he wants him to do some hacking and help dig into Titan to break the merger apart.

Meanwhile, Theo gets support from his dad, Abe Carver (James Reynolds), and his stepmom, Paulina Price (Jackee Harry). Theo recently went through a breakup with Claire Brady (Isabel Durant), which is part of the reason Theo is probably okay with coming back to town. I wonder if he’s going to stick around long enough to be a love interest for somebody like Arianna Horton (Marissa Reyes).

Plus, Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) confronts her dad, Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols). I do think Stephanie may suspect that Steve is the one who planted the bugged pen in Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) and Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier)’s Titan office, except it wasn’t him, it was Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez). Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) catches up with Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) on Wednesday, and I wonder if they’re going to talk about Rachel, or Marlena’s weird dreams, or EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel)’s awful, awful hospital plans.

Maggie & Julie Support Each Other on DOOL

We also have Maggie Horton Kiriakis (Suzanne Rogers) and Julie Williams (Susan Seaforth Hayes), who are both relatively recent widows, talking over their grief about losing the loves of their life, Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston) and Doug Williams (Bill Hayes). The bookstore is now a nice distraction for Julie; it’s getting her out of the house and keeping her busy. I wonder if she’s going to ask Maggie to come work with her over there. You know,  just to have something else to do.

Plus, Belle Black (Martha Madison) and Shawn Brady (Brandon Beemer) have a really nice heart-to-heart chat. Maybe they’re catching up about Claire since Shawn just got back from seeing her. I am very curious to see whether they may rekindle. You know, they’re off and on again on Days of our Lives, but there’s a deep love there.

Thursday’s Days of Our Lives: Brady Uncovers Lies, Rachel’s Guilt, and Adoption Drama

On Thursday, September 11th, we’ve got Tate Black (Leo Howard) giving Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) a clue, maybe even unintentionally. This is about Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd), and Brady is getting closer and closer to unraveling Sophia and Melinda Trask (Tina Huang)’s lies about the baby and finding out the really ugly truth of what’s been done behind Tate’s back.

Rachel has a nice time connecting with Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis). Rachel is blaming herself for Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) going to prison. She actually tells Holly, “It’s all my fault. My mom is in prison.” I wonder if Rachel’s going to remember she shot EJ, or we’re going to find out that Rachel never forgot. We’ll see if she opens up to Holly about what she’s done.

Stephanie Makes Alex Keep a Secret

Stephanie swears Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) to secrecy on Thursday, and this is hot off her conversation with her dad, Steve. I wonder if Stephanie is giving him some info about her dad, Steve’s shortcut investigation into Titan. I wonder if Steve suspects that his former client, Gabi, might have been so desperate when he canceled the investigation that she’s the one who did the amateurish bug in the office. If he tells Stephanie that, will she turn around and tell Alex?

Plus, Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) tells Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) she’s ready to adopt. She knows what baby she wants. It looks like little Tesoro is about to be Salem’s most wanted kid soon because we also have Javi Hernandez (Al Calderon) and Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) wanting to adopt Tesoro. They’ve both fallen in love with the kid, but they have issues with their backgrounds that could be problematic. Leo is a known con man, and Javi has this thing in his past where he had a child that died; he has anxiety about that. He hasn’t even told Leo all about that, and that’s all got to come out before they can dive into adopting at all.

Friday’s Days of Our Lives: Tate’s Confrontation, Rachel’s Shocking Confession, and Baby Tesoro’s DNA Test

On Friday, September 12th, Tate takes advantage of a moment with Sophia. He is trying to shake some truth out of her. I wonder if he’s got more evidence in hand to confront her with. Sophia is all in a panic anytime Tate comes into the Brady Pub or rolls up on her with more questions.

Brady tells Steve about his hunch. I’m wondering if Brady suspects that Sophia lied about when she gave birth, because that’s really the only reason not to suspect Tootsto as her child. Sophia’s worried that people will start to realize that Tesoro looks Asian, stuff like that. We’ll see.

Rachel completely stuns Kristen on Friday. I wonder if Brady has agreed to take Rachel to Statesville to see her mom, Kristen, or if Rachel sneaks off and grabs a ride share and heads up there to the prison. We do know that Kristen’s shocked, so I wonder if Rachel is going to confess that she’s the one who did it.

Johnny gets support from Holly. I think that she and some others are supposed to be in his film class at Salem University. They may also be talking about his adoption plans with Chanel. Also this week, Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) is going to run a DNA test on baby Tootsto. I’m assuming he’s looking for a match to Tate. We’ll see. I don’t think this test is authorized, though.

Days of Our Lives Weekly Spoilers: Rachel’s Dangerous Spiral, Tate’s Paternity Confirmed, and Salem’s Clinic Controversy

The week of September 15th through the 19th, I’m wondering if Sophia is turning into Jan Spears version 2.0 with her insistent obsession with Tate. I’m very excited to see Rafe’s DNA test results on her son, Tootsto.

Aaron Greene (Louis Tomeo) is back in town, and this may be for a reason other than just college. He’s been acting weird for a while about Sophia. We know he has a long-running crush. They had that mystery day they spent together, and Aaron has always acted a little guilty around Tate after that.

Shawn and Belle get closer. Maybe we’ll see them try again. They both had rebounds with Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu) and her with EJ, so maybe history repeats itself with these two yet again. Brady is soon going to uncover two brutal truths about two kids. First, that Rachel was the shooter in the EJ incident, and that Tate is indeed the dad of Tesoro.

Rachel is soon spiraling out of control. Spoilers confirm that when she goes off the deep end, somebody’s life may be at risk, and I don’t think it’s going to be Rachel. So, she is creating some sort of life-and-death drama very soon over this EJ issue. Hopefully, she doesn’t circle back around to EJ and try to finish him off or something.

Stephanie told EJ that they’ve got to name this new clinic after Dr. Tom Horton (Currently Zach Chyz) and not the DiMeras, who have a pretty tarnished name in Salem. Look for more to be revealed on the sick science that EJ and Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) are cooking up with these secretive plans for the hospital. Also, Marlena’s dreams worsen.

Days of Our Lives sees Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) wakes up in bed with Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) this week. But do they really go all the way with each other? Do they really do the deed, or is Gabi just going to let Philip think that they do?

Days of Our Lives: Gabi Hernandez Teams Up with Tony DiMera

It’s been a few weeks since Gabi decided to accept an offer to team up with Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis). He and Gabi are scheming to reclaim DiMera Enterprises and get it away from Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) and Philip. We’ve already seen fashionista Gabi trying to weasel her way into Xander’s good graces. And now Gabi is making moves on Philip.

But when Gabi spoke to him the other day, Philip seemed very skeptical of Gabi just suddenly being nice to him. So the question is, can Philip stay one step ahead of the very motivated Miss Gabi Hernandez? I kind of don’t think so. Philip should absolutely be on high alert where Gabi is concerned, especially when she’s being nice.

Gabi’s Deceptive Charm: Targeting Xander and Philip Kiriakis

Recently, Gabi cozied up to Xander. First, she was helping him calm down a fussy Victoria in his Titan office, which turned into daddy daycare. Then, Xander was Gabi’s strong shoulder to lean on when her daughter Arianna Horton (Marissa Reyes) briefly went missing, thanks to the thugs that were chasing Doug III.

But Gabi may have pushed things too far when she grabbed Xander for a kiss at the bistro right when his estranged wife, Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey), walked in the door with Brady Black (Eric Martsolf). Of course, Sarah was annoyed and announced that two could play that game, kissing Brady to make Xander jealous. And boy, was he!

Chaos at the Bistro on DOOL

All heck broke loose. And Gabi and Xander are now banned from the fancy bistro after he nearly punched Brady. Later, Philip was grilling Gabi about the incident. Of course, Salem’s a small town; word gets around. And that left Philip very suspicious of Gabi’ sudden interest in having a business dinner with him.

But she’s quick on her feet. And Gabi insisted that she and Xander are just good friends, so Gabi covered very smoothly. In the end, Philip agreed to go out to eat with Gabi just as an old friend. But Philip is very much right to be suspicious. Gabi’s only interest right now is to drive Philip and Xander further apart as part of her and Tony’s big plan to get DiMera away from Titan Industries.

Uncovering Secrets: Gabi’s Investigation into the Titan-DiMera Merger

Philip doesn’t know it yet. But he may be in serious trouble. Because Gabi has hired Black Patch to investigate the Titan-DiMera merger. Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) is digging into a lot of things, including the court case when Philip sued Xander for Titan Industries and said that his late father, their late father, Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston), wanted him to have it.

Remember, Vivian Alamain (Louise Sorel) had forged that letter. And it all came out later. But now Xander can’t do anything about it, or else it’s going to mess up the merger. So, what this means is Gabi and Steve could find out soon about Philip’s forgery scheme, and that could be very troublesome.

Did They or Didn’t They? Gabi and Philip’s Bedroom Mystery

In the meantime, Gabi may be working another angle. Because this week the promo shows Gabi and Philip hitting the sheets. Or do they? Actually, to be more specific, what the promo shows is Gabi waking up in bed next to Philip. And they seem to be completely undressed. It’s kind of like, “Oh, hey, you’re in bed with me.

Yeah, I’m in bed with you.” So, maybe Gabi and Philip do the deed. Or maybe Gabi just wants Philip to think that they did as part of the plot to mess with Titan. Our leaker, who’s very reliable, mentioned that despite the way the promo looks, there’s a chance that Gabi did not have sexy time with Philip.

Just because they woke up in bed together does not mean that those two people had any nookie. But Gabi may let Philip think they slept together to further her agenda with Tony and to make things worse between him and Xander. So, poor Philip may think his dry streak with women ended when he wakes up next to sexy Gabi, only to find out, nope, still dry.

Love Triangle Trouble: Philip, Gabi, and Belle – Complicated Romance

This scenario with Gabi even if it’s fake, could cause a lot of confusion for Philip and a lot of trouble. This week’s Days of Our Lives spoilers also show Belle Black (Martha Madison) and Philip getting flirty and spending a day playing hooky and having fun together. Belle and the Kiriakis bad boy have a long history together.

This new thing with Gabi on Days of our Lives, whether it’s real or not, could cause some hurt feelings if Philip isn’t careful. It looks like he’s hanging out with Belle and then later that night, or maybe the next night, is when Philip is in bed with Gabi.

If she lets it slip, accidentally or on purpose, to Belle that she spent the night with Philip, Belle might be upset with him for hanging out with her all day and then going and getting naked with Gabi. So, if it is just a big fake out, I wonder how long Philip will be fooled into thinking he and Gabi were intimate.

The Future of “Phabby”: Love, Lies, and Corporate Control on Days of Our Lives

Our leaker also told us that Philip and Gabi are eventually going to fall in love with each other sometime later this fall. With Philip and Gabi you never know, a romance may just work out. They’re both family-oriented and goal-driven. Plus, Philip and Gabi have checkered pasts; they understand each other on that level. Because they’re both schemers.

However, Philip may feel pretty stupid if he falls for Gabi’s lies. Philip could be irritated if Gabi makes up a big story about their wild night in bed, especially if Philip actually has a shot with Belle and that ruins it. Philip was kind of already savvy to Gabi’s shenanigans when he was talking to her about her and his brother Xander. 

Gabi Fools Phillip on Days of our Lives?

The thing is, Gabi could absolutely fool Philip long enough for her and Tony to swipe DiMera and get Gabi Chic out from under Titan’s control. That’s the plan. At any rate, if that happens and Philip finds out Gabi lied to him about their supposed intimacy and that Gabi used him, Philip may be hurt. He may be confused.

At the same time, he may actually admire that Gabi was able to pull it off. Philip is quite the schemer himself, so he would at least have to appreciate it on a professional level, from one part-time con artist to another. Gabi is going to need to play this game with Philip very strategically if she wants to get DiMera away from Titan so that she can be DiMera Enterprises’ new CEO.

In the end, Gabi may have to choose between love and money. She may have to choose between business and pleasure because if the leaker is right and Gabi and Philip catch true feelings for each other, then she may not get away with everything. And she may have some very tough choices to make. So, do you think Gabi is going to fake it to make it, or is she really getting intimate with Philip this week?

Days of Our Lives weekly prediction edition talks about Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) confessing to save Rachel Black (Alice Halsey) and other goings on in Salem.

I’ve got predictions for Kristen and Rachel, for Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) and Xander Cook (Paul Telfer), for Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) and Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord), for Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) and Belle Black (Martha Madison), and also for Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) and Tate Black (Leo Howard). Let’s dive right in.

Kristen DiMera’s Confession to Protect Rachel Black: Days of Our Lives Spoilers and Predictions

Our very first prediction, Kristen confesses to save Rachel. So, in recent episodes, Johnny DiMera’s (Carson Boatman) trial is rocking on and little Rachel has been bracing herself to get on the stand and testify. She is understandably nervous. Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) tried to ease her mind last week with a fun-filled daddy and daughter movie date, but she’s still on edge.

This week, Rachel takes the stand, and Kristen comforts her daughter when Rachel worries that Johnny will go to prison because of her. Tuesday spoilers say Brady and Kristen worry about Rachel. And in Thursday Days spoilers, Rachel is acting out in a way that shocks Kristen. Also this week, Rachel and Kristen run into Dr. Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) outside of the pub.

Days of Our Lives: Kristen Takes the Stand

Our leaker told us months ago, back in February, that Rachel shot EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) and that Kristen is going to be heading to Statesville to take the rap for her wicked little kid. Kristen is on the stand this week. And if she knows by then that Rachel shot EJ, you know, Kristen might confess if she thinks it’s all going to come out.

Rachel also takes the stand this week. She saw Johnny holding a gun on EJ but didn’t see Johnny firing. I do wonder if Rachel’s mind has blocked out that she shot her uncle EJ after the confrontation. The shooting may have been an accident or something else entirely because Susan Banks (Stacy Haiduk) is all woo woo about Stefano DiMera (Joseph Mascolo) back from the dead. So, who’s to say that Rachel wasn’t possessed when she shot him? I mean, it’s Salem.

Kristen will do anything to protect her only child. She may sacrifice her freedom to protect her daughter and keep Rachel out of juvie. Brady’s been busy trying to help Rachel during this time. And of course, Brady would put his life on the line for his kids. But in this case, there’s not much he can do. But if Kristen’s willing to go down for what Rachel did, I’m sure EJ will let her do it.

Xander Cook Shuts Down Gwen Rizczech: Days of Our Lives Relationship Drama and Spoilers

Our second prediction, Xander shuts Gwen down hard. So recently on Days, Gwen and Xander had a hot moment when they were drunk and Gwen nearly got Xander back into her bed at the Salem Inn. But at the last minute, he zipped it up and walked out. Since then, he’s made it perfectly clear he does not want to get back into any kind of thing, much less a relationship with Gwen.

This week’s spoilers tell us that Sarah’s jaw drops as Gwen tells her that Xander is moving on with her. And then Thursday Days spoilers have Xander on the defensive while talking with Sarah. Obviously, Gwen would get back with Xander in a heartbeat, but he shut Gwen down once already.

Gwen’s not Getting Xander’s Message on Days

Unless Xander changes his mind and really does want Gwen back in his life, he needs to shut her down harder and do it with all caps this time so she gets the message loud and clear. Xander and Sarah still love each other even though they are legally separated. So, when Xander hears from Sarah what Gwen was saying, he may lay into her for lying to Sarah, saying he’s moving on with her.

Of course, this might be really hard for Sarah to hear about Xander right after seeing him kiss Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez). She may think, “Oh, wow. He’s just, you know, doing everybody in town.” Our leaker said that Xander and Sarah are going to find their way back to each other again, but it’s going to take some time. It’s going to be a rough road and it’s going to be closer to the holidays.

Chad DiMera and Cat Greene’s Growing Romance Amidst Illness: Days of Our Lives Spoilers

Our third prediction, Chad gets strep and Cat returns the favor. On Days of Our Lives last week, Cat and Chad were stuck overnight in an elevator and they almost kissed. Later, Chad bumped into Cat at the hospital. He found out Felicity Greene (Kennedy Garcia) has strep throat and then Chad took Cat home and noticed her fever and symptoms. Looks like she has got it as well.

Chad was really sweet and he took care of Cat, which turned into a passionate kiss, which isn’t what you should be doing with someone who’s infected. She’s worried Chad’s going to catch it. Looks like it’s too late. Spoilers for Monday have Chad continuing to take care of sick Cat, but spoilers for Wednesday say Chad needs her to return the favor and Cat is there for Chad.

Cat Getting Closer to Chad on Days of Our Lives

Cat and Chad have been getting closer over the past few months. They could be in a relationship by this fall. Chad told Julie Williams (Susan Seaforth Hayes) to mind her business when it comes to Cat. It looks like he has forgiven her for posing as Abigail Deveraux (AnnaLynne McCord), and he thinks Julie should let it go, too. But I don’t think Julie’s going to like Cat helping Chad through an illness.

He may quarantine at Cat’s apartment to keep the kids and Julie and JJ Deveraux from catching the nasty bug. We’ll see. Once Julie hears that Cat had strep first, she may figure out pretty quickly that Chad was up close and personal with Cat for him to get infected.

Marlena’s Deception and Hypnosis Sessions: Unraveling the EJ DiMera Shooting Mystery

Our fourth prediction, Marlena lies to Belle. We saw Belle encouraging EJ to get hypnosis, but he couldn’t see the person’s face no matter how hard Marlena tried to help him. Since then, he got even more desperate and he threw Belle under the bus trying to get a mistrial.

Will Marlena find out more about the shooter and lie to Belle? Spoilers for Monday say Belle talks to Marlena, probably about Belle telling EJ she hates him. Marlena gets a new patient and I wonder if it’s little Rachel. Maybe Brady wants Marlena to use hypnosis to calm Rachel’s nerves before court.

Tuesday spoilers confirm that EJ goes back for another hypno session. Whatever comes out of it must be big because spoilers for Wednesday have EJ hitting Marlena with a subpoena for her to testify in Johnny’s case. Thursday spoilers see Marlena offering Belle a new theory. In the promo, Belle’s asking Marlena if she knows who shot EJ.

Will Marlena Tell the truth?

But I just wonder if Marlena is going to be honest. Obviously, Belle’s mad at EJ, but if she finds out Rachel shot him, she’s going to bring it to court. Marlena may be hoping reasonable doubt will save Johnny. And if she finds out Rachel’s the shooter, she may try and cover for her.

Marlena already knows Rachel probably needs therapy, but going to juvie isn’t the best way. Marlena has had a lot of loss in her life already. I wonder if Marlena figures out Rachel shot EJ and tells Kristen the truth, and that’s why she confesses on the stand. Marlena may lie to Belle, but I doubt she would lie on the witness stand.

Sophia Choi’s Schemes to Steal Tate Black: Days of Our Lives Summer Drama and Predictions

Our fifth and final prediction, Sophia’s plotting to steal Tate. Sophia right now is stressing because of all of her lies about the baby and the adoption. On Wednesday, she sees Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) and Tate kissing and tells Arianna Horton (Marissa Reyes)  that nothing’s turning out the way that she thought. Friday spoilers have Sophia trying to comfort Tate. In the summer promo, Sophia is there when Holly’s asleep.

She’s kind of adjusting her clothes and showing off her bra and taking some naughty pictures while Holly’s sleeping. Sophia made a massive mistake by lying to Tate about their son. In the past, we have seen Sophia play dirty games to try and get Holly away from Tate. I doubt Sophia listens to Ari when she tells her just forget him.

This photo thing that Sophia does may be to make Holly look bad so Tate will dump Holly and come running back to Sophia for comfort. It’s pretty sketchy that she’s taking pictures of Holly when she’s out of it, though. But given all the other things that Sophia has done, who’s to say what she’s capable of and not capable of doing, right?

Days of Our Lives 2-week spoilers for July 7-18, 2025 see Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) is shocked and Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) is back for trouble and boy is she going to jump into it right away.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Chad’s Deepening Bond and Custody Battles Heat Up

On Monday, July 7th, Chad DiMera deepens his bond with Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord). He’s starting to get really into his feels with her. And we have got Chad kissing Cat and that smooch is coming soon. Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) is bickering with Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) again.

It’s about Victoria and custody. Both of them were advised to make peace. Sarah was told by Brady Black (Eric Martsolf). Xander was told by Maggie Horton Kiriakis (Suzanne Rogers) that them fighting like this is only going to hurt their daughter, but they just can’t seem to help themselves. You know that saying, there’s a thin line between love and hate. And I think they are right on that line.

Sophia Choi struggles with her feelings about giving up the baby. And of course, soon she has to tell Tate Black (Leo Howard) she gave birth. And all this drama, you know, we’ll see. She could be struggling with postpartum depression because she is going to be doing some really sketchy things this summer.

Tate and Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) make plans to do this senior camp trip. They are going away for a week, but it looks like Tate’s just going to go away for like a day or so because he’s concerned about Sophia (Rachel Boyd) giving birth, having no idea she already has. Watch for Tate and Holly to be kissing under the fireworks soon.

Gwen Rizczech’s Shocking Return and Romantic Fireworks in Salem

On Tuesday, July 8th, we have got Gwen Rizczech  sweeping back into Salem. Emily O’Brien is back. Gwen has got money, attitude, and it looks like Julie Williams’ (Susan Seaforth Hayes) precious necklace around her neck. Chad and Julie are absolutely stunned to see Gwen show up at the Horton House all smug and entitled and just, you know, being Miss Gwen. I’m excited about this more so than I was her as Teresa. So, we’ll see.

Ari is busted by her uncle Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) when she’s up to something. Looks like she’s trying to sneak over to make out with Doug Williams 3 (Peyton Meyer) in his room above the Brady Pub. There’s going to be some action over there between those two this week. Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) tells Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) that he loves her as they enjoy the fireworks and some romance under the July 4th night sky.

Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) is worried when the baby won’t stop crying at the Hernandez house. Ari is not enjoying the noise. And we’ve got Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) pitching in to try and get the little guy to calm down. But Leo is actually worried that the baby may be sick. Now, he may just be overreacting because this whole situation is stressing him or legit it could be happening that way. We’ll see.

Leo’s Past Trauma, Forbidden Kisses, and Health Scares Unfold

Wednesday, July 9th, Leo opens up to Javi Hernandez (Al Calderon) some more about his past. And maybe his emotional baggage is causing issues with Leo bonding with the baby and being able to deal with it. His terrible mom, Diana Colville (Judith Chapman), is just the worst. And Leo has got mommy issues and daddy issues, and none of that can be helping in this situation.

Doug 3 rejects Ari. She is over there trying to make out with him. He wants Ari to stay away. Doug Williams 3 is trying to keep her safe, but she’s just insulted. And of course, Doug 3 hasn’t told Ari or Holly that he still owes these dangerous people money. They have sent him those photos of the girls. So, you know, he’s not the brightest bulb. He thinks just by kicking them out of his life that’s going to protect them. It’s not. Xander gets some time alone with Gwen at the Salem in and she plants a lip lock on Xander who she’s still clearly hot for.

Belle Black (Martha Madison) worries about Marina when she seems dizzy and close to collapse at home. Plus, Bonnie Lockhart Kiriakis brings some rough news to Sarah. They’re chatting at the Kiriakis mansion and I wonder if this relates to the custody battle and whether Justin Kiriakis (Wally Kurth) will be taking Xander’s case or not. Maggie would be very upset if he was.

Criminal Charges, Family Conflicts, and Shocking Discoveries Rock Salem

Thursday, July 10th, Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) is facing criminal charges, of course, but Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) is loyal. She believes in his innocence. EJ DiMera is standing by Johnny, too. He’s considering trying to find a way to shift the blame onto Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) for his shooting. And we do know that Kristen is headed to prison later this summer, but I don’t think it’s going to be a direct accusation situation on Days of our Lives.

Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) warns his brother EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) not just about the Johnny trial, but also that Tony intends to take back the company and the two brothers discuss CEO options. EJ thinks it’d be a good fit for Johnny. You know, presuming he gets him off on these attempted murder charges.

Plus, that would get Johnny away from working for the Kiriakis’s over at Titan. Hopefully they can get Dearra out from under that umbrella. And of course, don’t forget Cat’s been tasked with investigating the source of funds that EJ used to buy the hospital. And that’s for the ISA with Rafe helping out as the FBI liaison.

Belle and Jada Hunter are stunned by what is on the memory card that Belle was sent. And the big question is who sent it and why? because last we saw it, it was in EJ’s hands. So maybe he’s setting her up. You can’t put anything past that, ma’am. Xander argues with Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier). And no doubt it is about Titan.

Johnny’s Trial Looms as Secrets and Manipulations Intensify

On Friday, July 11th, Jada (Elia Cantu) asks Chanel some tough questions. And I wonder if it is about Johnny’s whereabouts the night of the shooting. The gun that Roman Brady (Josh Taylor) handed over isn’t going to help Johnny at all because he wiped it down for Prince.

They obviously can’t test Johnny for gunshot residue because it’s been so long. And the bullet should match. I remember they were having some problems with past ballistic tests like on Kristen’s gun and stuff. Something about the bullet being partially damaged. Sometimes if it hits bone inside a body, it can warp it. So, we’ll see if they get a ballistics match.

Paulina Price (Jackee Harry) offers Johnny an update and EJ’s playing dirty games and he’s manipulating Belle. He’ll obviously do anything to help Johnny. Sarah demands that Philip come clean about Xander beating him and Xander and Maggie are arguing about Sarah and Victoria again.

Days of Our Lives: Trial Secrets, Unexpected Returns, and Dark Turns Ahead

The week of July 14th through the 18th, we’re headed into Johnny’s criminal trial soon. Little Rachel Black (Finley Rose Slater) is nervous about testifying, but she’s also sitting on a secret that both Marina and Sarah may find out soon. Of course, it’s that Johnny is not the shooter, and the truth about who did it is buried inside little Rachel.

Word spreads that Gwen Rizczech is back, and I think very few people are going to be happy to see her. I am curious to see if Gwen gives Leo the cold shoulder since we know he wants to rekindle their friendship and feels super guilty about banging her hunky husband Dimitri von Leuschner DiMera. Sophia has to come clean to Tate about giving birth. She’s going to lie and say it was a little girl and that the adoptive parents wanted to take the baby right away, so she let them.

D.A. Melinda Trask may try and fake some documents to help support these fibs she’s telling to take. That woman’s going to lose her law license, I tell you. Doug Williams There’s debt collectors amp up soon, and the senior trip takes a darker turn. Belle and EJ may both play dirty in court.

Philip wants to help Xander and Sarah fix things. Cat and Chad continue to get closer, and Julie’s frustrated that Gwen’s got the Horton necklace, and Javi may want to keep the baby as long as possible.
