Greg Vaughan Says Goodbye
DOOL comings and goings reveal that Vaughan is just the latest big star of the NBC soap opera to say goodbye. He confirmed the news during the podcast, in which he spoke with General Hospital star Burton. Vaughan said,
“I’ve finished my reign at DAYS… for all my DAYS fans that are listening, I love you all. It’s never over, so I’m not going to say it’s over… I’m taking a break if you will. DAYS was going through a renewal negotiation and not knowing where they were going to go, and, um, I just felt my time was coming to an end, anyway.”

Days of Our Lives Comings and Goings: Mass Cast Exits Continue
Vaughan’s shocking bombshell comes as fans are still reeling over several other cast members leaving the soap.

There are also rumors that Victoria Konefal is leaving the role of Ciara Brady, which is leading to speculation that Robert Scott Wilson might also exit as Ben Weston. Plus, Camila Banus started a firestorm by announcing she was looking for work. She later said that Gabi Hernandez DiMera wasn’t going anywhere, but fans aren’t convinced.
As it gets closer to fall, we expect a lot of exit announcements to be made. So, is the cast reacting to being asked to take severe pay cuts? Is Days cleaning house? Or are they adjusting to financial limitations by eliminating the majority of their cast? If this keeps up, Salem will be a ghost town.
