A Meet Cute With Coffee on the Ground
The official DAYS Instagram page wrote, “A first meeting that involved coffee… but not in the way you might be thinking! Alex and Stephanie remember their ‘meet cute’ moment! 🩷☕️.” Attached is another video in which the camera person asks Salem couples questions, this time featuring Alex (Robert Scott Wilson) and Stephanie (Abigail Klein).
When asked how they met, they both laughed. “Oh, funny story.” Stephanie clarified, “You ran into me.” Alex agreed. “I ran into you. It was the Horton Town Square.” He knocked the coffee out of her hands, fell, and fogged up his glasses upon seeing her. But he claimed he no longer needed them because he now wore contacts.
She tapped his knee and said, “And now he sees where he’s going.” He jokingly shot back, “And now I can see the boogers when they hang out of her nose.” It was such an in-character moment for the sweet couple.
The Comments Tell the Rest
When asked what made them work, Stephanie didn’t sugarcoat it: “We’ve been through a lot.” Alex echoed, “I mean, a lot.” She brought up the worst of it, “when you turned my phone off when my mom was dying.” He muttered that they weren’t going to talk about that. She pressed on, stating that they’d overcome it. “Perseverance,” she said, and he agreed.
Alex’s advice to other couples was simple: “Trust, respect, and loyalty.” Co-star Emily O’Brien (Gwen) commented, “Oh, you two! 😍,” while Wilson himself chimed in with, “‘Coffee is for closers.’ ☕️ 🫶🏼📈.”
Fans piled on as one wrote, “I love Alex and Stephanie so much, you can see they are even cute and have chemistry when they’re seen together in real life.” Another declared, “Absolutely adorable 😍❤️ my favorite couple on Days. #Stalex forever 🔥.” And one follower said it best with, “Chemistry that is off the charts!! 😍.”
