On the April 13 episode of Days of our Lives, Stephanie continued suffering from the effects of her Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, which included picking fights with Alex and making him feel responsible for what she went through. Their embryonic marriage may be over before it even begins. You know what would make the situation worse — for them; better for us, the viewers — if Joy were to come back to Salem now… with Alex’s baby in tow.
Key Takeaways
- Joy had a pregnancy scare before she left town
- Joy could have lied and had Alex’s baby in NYC
- Alex would never turn his back on his child
Joy’s Possible Secret Pregnancy Could Upend Alex and Stephanie
Joy (AlexAnn Hopkins, who is returning) left Salem over a year ago. Before she did, she thought she might be pregnant with Alex’s (Robert Scott Wilson) child. A pregnancy test said she wasn’t. But since when has a medical test done by University Hospital ever been right?
Joy may not have realized she actually was pregnant until she moved back to New York City. At that point, she knew Alex had moved on to Stephanie (Abigail Klein), and it’s not like she was that attached to the guy. So Joy could have had her baby on her own. But it’s hard. Sure would be nice to have a partner to help out.
Alex’s Painful Past Ensures He Would Stand by His Child
Alex may be a player, and not the deepest man in town, but if there is one thing we know, it’s that he would never give up a child of his. Alex’s biological mother, Angelica (Morgan Fairchild), left Alex for Justin (Wally Kurth) and Adrienne (Judi Evans) to raise. And though Alex loved his parents, he felt the pain of being abandoned.
Alex would never do that to Joy’s baby. Which is likely the last thing Stephanie needs right now.
