In a week buzzing with excitement, the beloved soap opera Days of Our Lives on Peacock stages a high-stakes double wedding featuring Xander (Paul Telfer) and Sarah (Linsey Godfrey), alongside Alex (Rob Scott Wilson) and Theresa (Emily O’Brien). With familiar faces returning, unexpected guests, and promises of drama, viewers are in for a whirlwind of emotions.

Carlivati’s Parting Words
Carlivati conveyed his gratitude stating: It has honestly been one of the great joys of my life to be the Head Writer of Days of Our Lives for the past seven-and-a-half years,… I want to thank Ken Corday, Janet Drucker and the entire cast and crew at Days for an amazing run…
