Days of Our Lives spoilers for August 4-8, 2025 see Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) digging up some good dirt and Belle Black (Martha Madison) being very angry about a couple of things.
As we always do on early edition day. We start with what is coming the rest of this week and then dive into the good stuff happening next week.
Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Sarah Confronts Sophia
With that in mind, on Wednesday, July 30th, we’ve got Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) confronting Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd). She knows that Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) and Tate Black (Leo Howard) were lied to about the sex of the baby because Rachel Black (Alice Halsey) was talking about it being a little girl and she had bought the bunny. But Sarah knows it was a little boy in Sophia’s belly.
And Sarah may try and harass some info out of Sophia. But honestly, even if the teenager admits what she did to Sarah, the doctor cannot tell Brady or Tate because of patient-doctor confidentiality. She could lose her medical license over that. However, you know, that doesn’t mean she won’t, but she shouldn’t.
Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Tate in a Bad Place
Speaking of Sophia’s baby, poor Tate. He is so depressed about missing the birth and not getting to meet his baby when it was born. Hopefully, Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) is going to be there to support him. Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) and Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) are really trying to stay optimistic about their future, even though Johnny feels like the trial is not going well.
I actually think that EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel)’s tactic of letting the jury know that every witness and most of Salem had access to a gun and wanted him dead is enough to show reasonable doubt, especially since Roman Brady (Josh Taylor) had access to the murder weapon and really hates him.
Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Susan Solves the Case?
Grandma Susan Banks (Stacy Haiduk), though, is on the case and her powers are amped up. EJ’s mom is now talking to the dead. So, it’s beyond just the flashes of stuff. So, I’m very interested to see if Susan is going to hear Stefano DiMera’s (Joseph Mascolo) ghost. I mean, I think it could be Susan that actually figures out who is EJ’s real shooter.
Because if you remember when Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) hypnotized him, he saw the shooter, but he couldn’t see their face. And the reason I think he can’t see their face is because of some hocus pocus. And we’re going to talk about that in a special video tomorrow. So Susan warns EJ about something that is very bad. I mean, all this is very bad. So that is an accurate psychic flash.
Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Psychic Powers and Trial Drama Unfolding This Week
On Thursday, July 31st, we’ve got Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) and EJ DiMera talking about Susan’s newly expanded psychic abilities. Now that she has got some medium abilities, I wonder if she can talk to just anybody on the other side, or does Susan have to wait to hear from the dead? Does she hear from the dead at random?
I’m very interested to see if she’s going to be conversing with Stefano’s painting that’s channeling his spirit. All the kids in the family talk to Stefano’s portrait, but Susan might have a real back and forth conversation. We’ll see.
Sarah and Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) try to work on developing some skills to do polite co-parenting. Sarah updates her mama Maggie Horton Kiriakis (Suzanne Rogers) on the official legal separation of her marriage. And I wonder what sage advice that she will give Sarah.
I saw one of the bigger soap sites was addressing this big rumor that Maggie’s leaving. I haven’t seen that rumor anywhere. Okay. I don’t know if that was just like something, you know, something in passing because it was a slow news day. I guess we’ll see. But if you were worried, she’s not leaving.
Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Kayla Advises Steve
Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) offers Steve some advice. And of course, you know, Steve took Gabi Hernandez’s (Cherie Jimenez) case to dig into Xander and Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) as part of her scheming with Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) to get DiMera back.
I wonder if Steve’s going to follow some leads that maybe follow along towards Philip’s ex Chloe Lane (Nadia Bjorlin), who is with her pregnant sister Joy Wesley (AlexAnn Hopkins), who is carrying Alex Kiriakis’ (Robert Scott Wilson) baby, who of course is dating Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein), aka Sweetness Jr.
Speaking of Steve’s daughter, Stephanie freaks out. It could be about the ex she was telling Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu) about this week, or she may find out that Philip knows that she wrote the dirty book. Alex is comforting her on Days of Our Lives.
Co-Parenting Challenges and Intrigue: Key Character Developments in Days of Our Lives
On Friday, August 1st, Grandma Marlena questions Rachel. Now, it could be about her going on the stand at the trial, or maybe Marlena picks her granddaughter Rachel’s brain about the Arabian Knights book and why she’s so into it. That book, if you remember, was a tool that Stefano used to do some mind control in the past.
Sparks may fly between Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) and Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) when they are stuck together unexpectedly. And I wonder if Chad will question her about the text she’s getting from Wraith’s alias because maybe Chad wonders if she’s dating, if there’s a new guy in her life. Wonder if he’ll be jealous.
Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Brady Catches Feelings for Sarah
Brady and Sarah continue bonding. They’re getting closer. But as it goes on, Brady is going to be way more into Sarah than she is into him. She’s looking for a friend and support in this emotional time. But Brady is catching real feelings, and that kicks off soon.
EJ may have some sneaky plans for University Hospital. Maybe about the research labs. And Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (Richard Wharton), I just hope he’s going to turn up the air conditioning and not leave everybody sweating. Can you imagine coming into a hot hospital?
That sounds like a great place to pick up an infection and for the hospital to get sued. Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) and Cat are busy still investigating EJ’s money trail. And Xander is newly separated from Sarah. They have official documents separating them, not divorce papers, though.
He has dinner with Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) at the bistro and as they walk out they see Brady and Sarah embracing and they are stunned after that. I’m curious to see if Xander gets closer to Gwen who definitely wants him back in bed.
Upcoming Days of Our Lives Drama: Romantic Tensions and Hospital Secrets
The week of August 4th through the 8th Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney) is back soon for Johnny. Also for Marlena and likely to say some harsh things to Belle and EJ. So I’m wondering if she’s going to be back in Salem next week or the week after. Sami may be livid that Belle is prosecuting Johnny and that Belle and EJ are still together.
I think it’d be kind of funny if Hurricane Sami notified the judge that the DA and the defense attorney are banging. Marlena continues to have strange Queen of the Night dreams, but with Stefano dead, is he reaching out from beyond the grave, or is there an all new version of EJ’s wicked dad lurking around? Marlena declining health and stressful dreams have her family very worried.
Kayla may actually figure out that Marlena is being manipulated again by the Phoenix. She knows how the whole mind control things work. Plus, you know, we had Steve and that Stefano thing where Stefano’s memories were in his head, the robotic eye, all that craziness. So, Kayla knows exactly how wild things can get.
Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Kayla Worried and Stephanie Stressed
Speaking of, Kayla is worried about what Steve found out that may hurt Stephanie. Brady has concerns about both Tate and Rachel, but he is going to get some distraction by amping up his efforts to romance Sarah. DA Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) is there to advise Sophia after Sarah grills her.
And I wonder if Melinda may warn Sarah that she’d better zip it or else. Stephanie can’t shake her anxiety, but it’s not just about the book. It’s about this mysterious ex. And EJ is increasingly desperate to recover his memories. Maybe can dig into his head and get a good read.
