Days of Our Lives Comings & Goings: EJ DiMera Back for Love and War

The soap world has been abuzz since the announcement of the recast of the DOOL favorite EJ DiMera. Now, spoilers reveal EJ sets foot in Salem on Wednesday, June 9, 2021. EJ’s been in Europe recovering from a horrific explosion that left him burned and unable to speak. But, his wife, Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney), was there as a caregiver to aid in EJ’s recovery.

Sami came back to Salem for her daughter, Allie Horton (Lindsay Arnold). But then, EJ DiMera’s wife hooked up with her ex, Lucas Horton (Bryan Dattilo), not once but twice after complaining her marriage was at a crossroads. But now, EJ is on his way back to Salem, his wife, and his family business, per Days of our Lives updates.

First-look spoilers indicate Ej DiMera wants to make amends with Sami and work on their marriage. He won’t take news of her affair lightly once he finds out. The scoop says Lucas wants Sami again. In addition, EJ DiMera wants to take the reins of the family business. But, this means he must overthrow the current CEO – his brother Jake DiMera (Brandon Barash) on Days of our Lives.

DOOL Comings and Goings: Here’s Johnny!

For months, Days of our Lives spoilers hinted at the return of Johnny DiMera. One half of a set of twins – Johnny is the son of Sami and EJ DiMera. He is also the fraternal twin of Allie Horton (Lindsay Arnold). Sami got pregnant with twins that have two different fathers: EJ DiMera and Lucas. This is a very rare occurrence – but does happen. So, Johnny and his twin have only one parent in common.

When a SORAS (soap opera rapid aging syndrome) Allie hit the scene, Days of Our Lives viewers wondered when her brother Johnny DiMera would turn up as well. Fans will not have to wait much longer as Carson Boatman takes on the role of Johnny this Summer. Days of our Lives spoilers show Allie excitedly embracing her twin Johnny.

DOOL spoilers revealed long ago that Johnny would be a chip off the old Stefano (late Joseph Mascolo) block. Stefano was one of the most nefarious villains in any daytime drama. If this is the case, handsome young Johnny is going to bring excitement with him to Salem. Johnny might even help his dear old dad to create a coup to take down Jake as head of the family business.

It’s Out of Africa and Into Salem for Eric Brady on Days of Our Lives

DOOL fans were shocked and saddened by Eric Brady’s abrupt mission trip to Africa. After all, he’d just married his first love. Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker) waited patiently for his return, keeping herself busy with her daughter and housemates. But she lost it when her goody-two-shoes husband extended his mission yet again. Long story short, she slept with his known enemy, Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul Telfer).

Further, on Days of our Lives, Sami grilled Nicole about why she was hanging with Xander. And, Eric’s twin isn’t buying the lies. She would love to find a reason to get Nicole out of Eric’s life. Soon, DOOL spoilers indicate Nicole is thrilled by the return of her good-looking hubby. The two fall back into each other’s arms (and bed) once again – picking up where they left off on Days of our Lives.

Yet, Eric senses something is wrong during their pillow talk. Of course, she should do the right thing and spill the beans. She told her bestie, Ava Vitali (Tamara Braun) about her sordid, drunken roll in the hay with the bad boy. While it would hurt him, he does value honesty. But, Nicole may think this is something they won’t be able to reconcile on the NBC soap.

DOOL Comings and Goings: Ciara Brady Flies Back Home

For months, amnesiac Ciara Brady stayed in South Africa and off Days of our Lives. She is disturbed that she married the Necktie Killer, Ben Weston (Robert Scott Wilson). Recently, Ciara sent her husband divorce papers to sign. Yet, he’s not ready to give up on their love. He fought so hard to bring her back after she was presumed dead.

But with her amnesia, she does not remember the love they share. Not. At. All. The Days of our Lives summer promo trailer shows Ciara surprising Ben. The head writer reassured fans that this new supercouple’s love story is far from over. Of course, there will be a hitch or two. Recaps show Ben and his niece-in-law Claire Brady (Isabel Durant) making out.

Days of Our Lives has a legion of “Cin” fans rooting for Ciara’s memory to return. But it looks like she’s back to force Ben to sign the divorce papers. It’s now or never for the heartbroken mechanic. He needs a miracle to jog his wife’s memory. The question is what will be the catalyst to her recovery?

And the fifth return is Thaao Phenglis as Tony DiMera to aid his brothers. We look forward to all the intrigue and romance these characters have to offer. Plus, we just said goodbye to Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) as she ran off to avoid prison. But the NBC soap welcomes lots of familiar and unfamiliar faces soon.
