Abigail’s Return: How She Could Stir Days of our Lives’ DiMera House

 

Abigail Deveraux DiMera left Salem to deal with the fallout from her half-sister Gwen Rizczech’s reign of terror, while actress Marci Miller headed off on maternity leave. When the character resurfaces, the timing will be perfect for her to stir Days of our Lives’ DiMera house, in a way only Abigail can.

Days of our Lives: Jealousy and Affairs

Chad DiMera’s (Billy Flynn) jealousy has always been through the roof regarding his wife; particularly when it comes to his half-brothers. He had ample cause with Stefan and let himself be duped into believing Abigail was cheating on him with Jake (Brandon Barash). When Abigail returns she’ll be living under the same roof as Chad’s big brother, EJ (Dan Feuerriegel), the man with whom she’s already had a short but torrid affair.

Surprise Reunion?

The situation could fuel Chad’s insecurities, causing tension and turmoil at the mansion. Sami Brady DiMera (Alison Sweeney) is also well aware of EJ and Abigail’s past, which could lead to more drama. Could their spouses’ mistrust lead EJ and Abigail back together?

The pair actually have something to commiserate about — Abigail’s healing over Chad’s betrayal with Gwen, while EJ’s bound to learn about Sami’s affair with Lucas Horton (Bryan Dattilo). Revisiting EJ and Abigail as a couple is a move that would upend the entire DiMera family.

Business Affairs

EJ, Chad, and Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) are determined to secure control of DiMera Enterprises and keep the company away from the black sheep sibling, Jake. Abigail could strongly factor into the mix if she decides to support Chad and use her friendship with Jake to gain insight into his and Gabi’s (Camila Banus) plans. No one would suspect good girl Abigail of double-dealing, hence why she would be the perfect corporate spy.

Days of our Lives: Lady of the Manor

Someone’s going to have to stake their claim as the lady of the manor at Chez DiMera once Abigail, Sami, and Gabi are all living under the same roof. And Abigail’s the perfect candidate for the position. Gabi’s been throwing her weight around for months but is suddenly all consumed with Kate’s (Lauren Koslow) moves on Jake.

Meanwhile, Sami has her hands full with keeping her fling with Lucas from EJ. It leaves Abigail free to slip in as number one. The move would also allow Abigail to regain the strength she’s had in the past and return to the self-assured woman she used to be.
