Days of Our Lives spoilers hint at a shocking twist in Chanel Dupree-DiMera’s (Raven Bowens) journey to motherhood. After being advised against getting pregnant again, Chanel and Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman
) explored the possibility of adopting Sophia Choi’s (Rachel Boyd) baby. However, a major development in the soap’s 60th-anniversary promo teases an unexpected pregnancy for Chanel.
Could a heartbreaking adoption rejection ultimately lead to a miraculous pregnancy? Let’s break it all down.
Kayla Johnson’s Warning
Chanel and Johnny previously conceived, but their joy was short-lived. Paulina Price’s (Jackée Harry) daring rescue put both Chanel and the unborn baby at significant risk. Although it initially seemed like the baby remained unharmed, tragedy struck when Chanel suffered a devastating miscarriage. Afterward, Chanel and Johnny were advised to wait at least six months before trying again.
A Difficult Decision
When Chanel returned for a medical evaluation after the six-month waiting period, Kayla Johnson (Mary Beth Evans) delivered discouraging news—Chanel’s test results indicated that now wasn’t the best time for pregnancy. This left the couple questioning whether they were meant to have a biological child at all.
At the same time, Sophia Choi was being examined at the hospital for round ligament pain. A casual conversation with Tate Black (Leo Howard) led Johnny and Chanel to believe that fate might be leading them toward adoption. It seemed like the perfect solution—until an unexpected obstacle arose.
Amy Choi’s Firm Stand
Adoption seemed like the ideal answer for Johnny and Chanel, but Sophia’s grandmother, Amy Choi (Shi Ne Nielson), proved to be a major roadblock. Amy had incredibly high expectations for potential adoptive parents, making it nearly impossible for anyone to meet her standards.
Initially, it appeared that Amy wanted Sophia and Tate to take responsibility for their actions. However, recent developments suggest Amy might have her own plans—perhaps she wants to raise the baby herself. With Amy refusing to budge, Johnny and Chanel’s dream of adoption might slip through their fingers.
Chanel’s Unexpected Pregnancy?
Although Amy’s rejection is a huge setback, it could lead to an unexpected silver lining for Chanel and Johnny. Despite Kayla’s warning, could Chanel end up pregnant anyway? This wouldn’t be the first time she conceived despite taking precautions.
In the highly anticipated 60th-anniversary promo, a heated moment unfolds between Johnny and EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel), with Johnny lunging at his father in anger. Meanwhile, Chanel appears in a fleeting scene, cradling what looks like a baby bump.
While the rounded belly could simply be a trick of lighting, the dress, or her posture, the possibility of a pregnancy looms large. If Chanel is indeed expecting, this could mark a turning point in her and Johnny’s lives, forcing them to embrace the challenges and joys of parenthood sooner than anticipated.
