‘Days Of Our Lives’ Spoilers Friday, August 27: Xander & Sarah Reconnect, Chad Grills EJ, Marlena’s Mystery Gift

Days of Our Lives spoilers are in for Friday, August 27, 2026. We can expect one man to go on a digging expedition. An ex is consoled, but could it lead to a reconnection?

Plus, Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) has a gift for Belle Black (Martha Madison). Keep reading to find out what is coming up in the Peacock soap opera.

Key Takeaways

• Sarah comforts Xander after his devastating losses.
• Marlena gives Belle a special and potentially significant gift.
• Chad interrogates EJ about the growing DiMera mystery.
• Ari decides what to do after overhearing EJ and Johnny.
• Jack catches up with Steve as Gwen’s family situation comes into play.

Exes Bond

Let’s start off with Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul Telfer). The man will be devastated over losing Titan and Victor Kiriakis’ (last played by John Aniston) estate. 

Right now, Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) is working on a plan to save the day. However, it involves a risky high-stakes poker game.

Not only that, but this could activate Philip’s gambling addiction. Fans might recall what happened the last time that Philip gambled, which included loan sharks. Back to Xander, he will get consoled by Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey). 

Marlena Evans’ Gift

Over with Marlena, expect her to have a special gift for Belle. This could be connected to the chess mystery. It might also help somehow on Belle and Chad DiMera’s (Connor Floyd) upcoming trip to Italy.

Villain Interrogated

Days of Our Lives spoilers for Friday, August 27 reveal that Chad will interrogate EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel). However, EJ might not be able to make sense of what is really going on here. Plus, there are a lot of other pans in the fire.

So, EJ can only handle one thing at a time. The man might assure Chad that he’ll get to the bottom of the Stefano DiMera (last played by Joseph Mascolo) mystery.

Ari Horton’s Next Move

Now that Ari Horton (Vico Escorcia) has overheard EJ and Johnny DiMera’s (Carson Boatman) discussion, she will need to decide what to do about it. This centers around her best friend, so she will probably update Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis).

Kate Roberts Brady (Lauren Koslow) will have a special request for Ari. Kate has asked Ari on a few occasions to spy for her, but I don’t think this has to do with business.

The lady has made headway with Roman Brady (Josh Taylor). So, maybe this is a romantic surprise?

What Else to Expect

Finally, Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford) will get caught up with Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols).

Maybe Jack will ask Steve to show a little kindness to Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien). Maybe Gwen can have what she’s always wanted: a family.
