Gwen’s Bombshell Return Turns Salem Upside Down

Gwen Rizczech is back—and she’s making waves the moment she steps foot in Salem. Her return stuns Chad DiMera, who leads her inside Horton house with caution. Julie Williams gets the shock of her life when Gwen greets her with a smug “Happy Independence Day.”

But Gwen isn’t just visiting. She’s got motives. Her kiss with Xander Kiriakis hints at unfinished business—or manipulation. This return feels calculated, and the grilling she receives proves she’s not welcome by all. Gwen’s playing multiple angles, and the drama is only getting started.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers & Preview: Marlena’s Dizzy Spells Take a Frightening Turn

Marlena Evans’ dizzy spells raise red flags for Belle Black. Marlena shrugs it off, blaming grief. But Belle doesn’t buy it. She pushes for hospital tests, growing more suspicious each day. Marlena’s reassurance doesn’t match the concern in her daughter’s eyes.

As the week unfolds, Marlena collapses and gets rushed to the hospital. The test results won’t explain everything, which deepens the mystery. Is it something deeper or a hidden illness waiting to surface? Days fans will be glued to this slow-building medical crisis.

Leo’s Baby Panic Shakes the Hernandez Household

Over at the Hernandez house, Leo Stark is in full meltdown mode. Baby “Tesoro” won’t stop crying, and Leo’s anxiety spirals. Gabi Hernandez eventually steps in to calm the child, sensing Leo’s overwhelmed state.

Leo’s fear grows—what if something’s seriously wrong with the baby? Or is Tesoro just reacting to Leo’s chaotic energy? Either way, Leo’s guilt and trauma surface. He opens up to Javi about the past, hinting there’s more pain buried beneath his flair. A possible baby crisis looms, and Salem better brace itself.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers & Preview: EJ Plots DiMera Takeover With Johnny’s Help

The DiMera family game is back on. Tony urges EJ DiMera to reclaim their legacy. EJ proposes using Johnny DiMera as their inside man at Titan. Johnny may agree, especially if it wins EJ’s approval. But playing double agent is risky. If the plan fails, the fallout could be epic.

With corporate battles, family loyalty, and deception in the mix, expect high-stakes maneuvering from every DiMera angle. And with Gwen back, things are only going to spiral faster.
