The Tokyo Olympics are taking over NBC for the next two weeks but that’s no reason to not get your Days of our Lives fix. Today, we’re taking a look back at the powerful love story between Bo Brady and Hope Williams.
Salem was never the same once Roman Brady’s (then Wayne Northrop) younger brother, Bo Brady (Peter Reckell), came to town. He had a dangerous edge to him and that was appealing — especially to young Hope Williams (Kristian Alfonso), who until that point had a crush on his older brother.
But once she laid eyes on Bo, life was never going to be the same. He was enthralled by her beauty and the way she took no guff from him but that doesn’t mean he didn’t try. He knew she was younger than she claimed and because of that, he did take things slow — or at least he tried to!
No matter what obstacle presented itself — whether it was other people or dangerous cases — these two always found their way through it eventually. And while death tried to separate them on more than one occasion, it did finally do the trick. While Bo Brady may be gone now, their love story is forever.
Enjoy the photo walk down Memory Lane below and remember all of the good times and tremendous love that was shared between Bo and Hope. Their incredible story will forever live on with those who continue to live in Salem — and who watch Days of our Lives.
