Three Doomed Couples on ‘Days of our Lives’ – Who Splits up in 2022?
Love doesn’t always last in Salem and three couples are slated to hit the skids on Days of our Lives before too much longer. And why do these pairs call it quits? It’s all about lying liars that lie on DOOL on NBC.
#1 Can Xander Cook Still Love Gwen Rizczech Once Her Lies Come Out?
One duo that seems destined to die-off is Gwen Rizczech‘s (Emily O’Brien) romance with Xander Cook (Paul Telfer). Of course, it’s not her fault that Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) kidnapped Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey). But it is definitely on Gwen that she kept quiet.
She’s known for a while that Sarah never dumped Xander. And she also knows her honey’s ex was kidnapped and who’s holding her. So, that’s all pertinent info Gwen should have told Xander Cook long before now. But she didn’t because she’s desperate.

All things being equal, Xander can’t throw stones about lies. He’s told plenty himself. But this could be a deal-breaker. Is there any way that Xander will still love Gwen Rizczech once he finds out about her lies on Days of our Lives?
The outcome depends on whether Sarah stays in Salem. It’s clear, the pretty doc’s still smitten with Xander. And she’s got no idea he thinks she dumped him on their wedding day. So, it sure seems likely that Xander would ditch Gwen to get with Sarah.
#2 Will the Devil (or Paulina) Tell Tripp Dalton What Allie Horton Did on Days of our Lives?
Although Allie Horton (Lindsay Arnold) swore it’s a one-time thing, the truth will still come out. She had a night of passion with Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) behind Tripp Dalton Johnson’s (Lucas Adams) back. Already one person knows about the fling.
Her mama, Paulina Price (Jackee Harry) walked in on the tryst. And she’s stunned. But would Mama P spill the beans to Tripp that Allie cheated? She might. Or she might let it slip. Or, in standard soap style, Tripp might overhear Paulina talking about the hook-up.
Allie is mad because Johnny called it out. Even when Johnny was with Chanel, Allie lusted over her. And the moment marriage was "over" Allie hopped into bed with Chanel. #Days #Janel #Ejami pic.twitter.com/E33ynKm7q6

Then there’s also the devil in Salem who keeps stirring the pot on Days of our Lives. With Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) possessed, he’s poised to blow up twin Allie’s life. Demonic Johnny’s already made some indecent comments about Allie and Chanel.
And there’s more to come. Plus, with Tripp Dalton planning a proposal, the dirty secret could come out soon. Will Tripp snatch back the ring and dump Allie once he hears what she did? They seem slated to split once all this is revealed.
#3 Lucas Horton Can’t Keep Sami Brady — Can He?
The last of the three doomed couples on Days is Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney) and Lucas Horton (Bryan Dattilo). Now, Lucas is doing all he can to keep Sami away from Salem. Otherwise, she might find out he set up her ex, EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel).
After getting too cocky in court, EJ’s headed to Statesville. Of course, the devil nudged him there by masquerading as EJ. Kissing Abigail Deveraux (Marci Miller) pushed Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) over the edge. So, NBC Twitter shows he supported Lucas’ false accusations.

In the end, EJ will prevail. He’s already pretty sure that Lucas Horton set him up. Now, he needs to prove it. And once he does, you can bet Sami will get the scoop. Is there any way she’ll stay with Lucas after the scheme’s exposed? Is “Lumi” on life support as a couple?
It sure doesn’t seem like Lucas can keep his lady for too long. Their reunion is a house of lies and can’t possibly survive, right? Watch for EJ to keep pushing to take her back. In the end, they could be the third couple to fall apart on DOOL.
