You’re listening to Soap Dirt, the latest in television entertainment news. Hey there, Days of Our Lives fans! Oh my gosh, I’ve got a big bunch of leaks for you. I have somebody that sends me info, and they’re generally pretty spot-on, pretty reliable, so I’m excited because they gave me a whole pile of them. And I usually don’t get this many at once, but I’m so excited, so I want to tell you guys all about this. It’s good stuff for Nicole and EJ, and some of the exits, how those are handled for Harris and Nicole stuff coming ahead for Xander and Sarah, Teresa, Xander’s mom, and there’s just so much. There’s big exits coming. I can’t wait to unpack it all for you. But if you haven’t, please reach down and click subscribe. So just to be clear, these are leaks. They have, I would say, a very high probability of happening, but I’m not going to call them spoilers. You guys know if you listen here regularly when I say spoiler, that means it’s from the network and it is written in stone. Otherwise, I always make clear to you if I’m making a prediction, if we’re just having a “what if” discussion, you know, among friends about what could happen on the show. And in situations like this where it’s a leak and I can’t guarantee it’s happening, but it’s exciting, so I want to talk about it. So I’m going to dig in right now.
The first tidbit I have is Nicole Walker leaves, but Holly Jonas stays behind, living in the Kiriakis Mansion. So interesting, not the DiMera Mansion, the Kiriakis Mansion, because that means she’s with Grandma Maggie. So they didn’t specify. The leaker didn’t specify to me whether it… What they said to me was Nicole leaves. They didn’t say Nicole dies, something like that. And I’ve been wondering how they were going to exit her, but according to the leaker, she leaves. So we’ll see.
Leo Stark gets a new love interest played by Al Calderon. We saw a picture of Al with Sheree Jimenez. She’s the new recast Gabi who is showing up in the next few weeks, I think in June. And, yeah, the new love interest, he is going to be with. His name is Javi.
And you saw this week on Days of Our Lives that Dimitri Von… He’s getting out of prison, but he met a prison play pal, friend, playmate, and they are heading off to start a new life on their own, which really is a bummer because DVL had a totally hot bod, and I always liked it when they got him shirtless. So Leo gets a new love interest.
Harris Michaels leaves around June, no specific exit date yet. Steve Burton wrapped filming at the end of the year. We all knew Harris was leaving, but here’s the reason this is in the leaks, because Brady Black reportedly gets closer to Ava Vitali after Harris leaves. Now, I do know that Tamara Braun is staying. In the big group photo for the 15,000th episode, which will air in December, she was still front and center long after Burton was gone. And the thing with Brady getting closer to Ava, I totally believe that. I mean, he always needs a toxic woman in his life, doesn’t he? I mean, Nicole has been such a naughty girl in her past, Brady really appreciated that. Teresa, so naughty. Kristen, next-level naughty. So Brady getting involved with the mob princess, yeah, yeah, I can feel that. And I definitely think they would have great chemistry.
Xander and Sarah, they are getting married. That wedding is ahead after the whole Maggie and Constantine disaster. It looks like Constantine will not get Maggie to say “I do.” That is part of some other leaked info I got from a different source that’s not quite as reliable, but hopefully, Maggie’s going to wise up next week. She finds out the truth about him, but he still tries to press on with the wedding. So we’ll see how he does. Teresa and Alex, I was told that their wedding was filmed in January, so it should air around July, maybe August. And that Teresa’s lies about Victor’s will and Alex being the fake heir will be exposed at the wedding. So I just wonder if Constantine is still around and he gets annoyed with her and busted out at the wedding, or if he leaves town and comes back for the wedding, or, you know, if Xander and his team of crack investigative reporters over at The Spectator figured out, but it looks like she’s outed at the wedding, and that, as a leak, that definitely tracks because we know how Salem loves to blow up weddings, literally and figuratively.
