Bill Hayes’ Death

Due to the soap’s advanced production schedule, Bill’s tribute won’t come until winter 2024. However, there is already a long list of actors coming back to the soap to honor Bill. 

Doug Williams Tribute

Kristian said during the interview that her return to the soap is bittersweet. As fans know, Doug was Hope’s on-screen father. In fact, the actress confirmed that her first day back on set was on April 22, 2024.

“My return is very bittersweet, because it is the end of an era with Bill gone. So to return to Days is very sad. I am appreciative that they came to me to include me in their series of shows honoring Doug and I’m very happy to see everyone, but I’m entering the studio with a heavy heart.”

Kristian Alfonso’s Regret

Days of Our Lives spoilers reveal that Kristian couldn’t give any major details or spoilers. However, the actress did say that head writer Ron Carlivati had a storyline in 2023 that was either shelved or changed. Kristian explained that it was the storyline that would reunite families. In that storyline, Kristian would have shared scenes with Bill. 

“What Ron had written was beautiful and emotional and it was a fantastic story. I was 100 percent for it and the fans would have loved it.”

Unfortunately, that storyline never aired.

    the “soap” story line is awful. Just a horrible idea/ R U trying to end for good? Keep this story line and you are not worth watching…Your writers are in need of an upgrade, in my opinion.
