As 2025 kicks off, so does the drama on “Days of Our Lives,” with a New Year’s Eve party at the DiMera mansion poised to be anything but festive. Amidst the forced cheer and champagne flutes, secrets and betrayals are about to detonate like a poorly-timed firework. Stephanie Johnson and Philip Kiriakis are forging ahead with their New Year’s Eve plans, likely triggering a jealous reaction from Alex Kiriakis. Not to be outdone, Alex has snagged a date of his own with Joy Wesley, creating a supremely uncomfortable situation, considering Johnny DiMera and Chanel Dupree DiMera are hosting the party.
But the real fireworks begin when Chanel overhears Johnny and Joy discussing their clandestine hookup. Expect a confrontation that could scorch the DiMera hedges. Adding to the chaos, Arnold Feniger, masquerading as Rafe Hernandez, continues to fool Jada Hunter, despite her growing suspicions about his increasingly odd behavior. Meanwhile, Belle Black accepts the DA offer, replacing EJ DiMera and JJ Deveraux convinces a reluctant Gabi Hernandez to join the party despite her lingering resentment towards EJ.
So, as Philip and Stephanie move closer with a celebratory kiss, Jada’s investigation into “Rafe’s” strange conduct intensifies, setting the stage for more intrigue. Tune in to Peacock on Wednesday, January 1, 2025.
