“I think it’s important to honor the actor and the character and the longevity, and also for the fans that have watched that person for so many years.”
Death In the Family
Days of Our Lives spoilers confirm that there will be a death in Doug’s family. There were no hints on who that could be. After all, Doug and Julie are tied with the Brady and Horton families, which are pretty large in number. One possibility is that it might be JJ Deveraux since it was just reported that actor Casey Moss would be leaving Salem.

Somehow, the family death will really affect Doug, so it must be someone that he is close to. It will also make him take a walk down memory lane and fans will get to learn about when Doug first came to Salem.
This will definitely be a treat for fans, both those who remember those days as well as younger viewers who weren’t watching (or even born) during that time. It is sad that it has to be done through a death, though.
