Days of our Lives fans have been wondering when Joy would return with Alex’s baby, and it appears the stage is being set for just that.

Key Takeaways

  • Alex and Stephanie are not on the same page about having a baby.
  • Joy lied when she left Salem.
  • DAYS fans are sure Joy and the baby are coming back.

Dropping Hints That Fans Aren’t Missing

Alex (Robert Scott Wilson) and Stephanie (Abigail Klein) recently enjoyed quality time with Chanel (Raven Bowens) and baby Trey. However, Stephanie’s comment about how she loved to give a baby back to their parents raised red flags for Alex.

They ended up having a chat where Alex and Stephanie realized they are not in sync when it comes to having kids. That certainly sent off flares that DAYS is gearing up to bring back Joy (AlexAnn Hopkins).

Alex and Joy had a brief affair during their time on Body & Soul. When the show was canceled, Alex reunited with Stephanie, and Joy learned she was pregnant.

Joy lied to Alex about being pregnant before she left Salem for a job opportunity in New York City. Thanks to Stephanie and Alex not being on the same page about having a baby, DAYS fans are confident Joy and her baby are about to pop up in Salem.

One Reddit thread was on fire following the episodes, with fans weighing in on this theory.

“Gee I wonder if Joy is about to have that baby,” joked a fan. Another fan added, “Was the hints too subtle !!!!!”

A different fan expressed, “Here’s what we’ve been talking about for the last couple of months! Looks like Alex is ready to be a father & Stephanie wants to wait. And here comes Joy with little Alex Jr, to finally make Stalex interesting. Throw in a possible kidnapping of Stephanie & Christmas comes early for me 🤣.”

DAYS just dropped a winter promo that teased several returns. While Joy wasn’t one of them, Stephanie and Alex getting married seems to be another sign that Joy and Alex’s baby will be back sooner rather than later.

It is the soap way after all, especially since Alex and Stephanie aren’t agreeing on when to have children.

What do you think? Is DAYS setting the stage for Alex to learn he’s a daddy? Let us know in the comments section below.
