Days Of Our Lives Spoilers – Doug Williams’ Odd Behavior
DOOL spoilers reveal that Doug has probably gone through memory lapses and confusion for quite some time. Doug and Julie, as well as others, didn’t pay too much attention to it, though. Becoming forgetful goes with the territory of growing old.
Love ones realized something was very wrong when Doug locked Julie in the walk-in freezer. Julie had her cell phone with her, so she was able to call Jack for help. Now, it doesn’t appear that Doug intentionally locked his wife in the freezer. Most likely, he became confused or went into a trance and wasn’t paying attention. The body tends to do tasks that are automatic, even if the brain isn’t focused.
There were other warning signs, though, such as mixing up Hope Williams Brady (Kristian Alfonso) and Vivian Alamain (formerly played by Louise Sorel, Robin Strasser and Linda Dano).

Days Of Our Lives Spoilers – Julie Williams In Denial
Days of Our Lives spoilers reveal that despite everything happening with Doug, Julie is in denial. She will continue to reject the idea that anything is wrong with her husband for a while. Hayes explained that Julie might be thinking if she accepts Doug’s diagnosis, then the couple’s love story will end.
“Denial, denial, denial. He doesn’t have dementia. Of course, there is the gradual fading of the light with all of us as we lose a grasp of 7 to 12 numbers in a row. Her initial experience is, ‘I refuse to believe that that’s happening to him,’ which is where you start but not necessarily where you finish. And of course, being an older person married to an older person, you have that fear and that frenzy. You’re not just denying that someone has dementia or may be slipping, what you’re denying is it can’t be over, the love story can’t be over.”
