Days of our Lives said goodbye to Nicole and Eric on Monday, July 29. Actress Arianne Zucker also bid an emotional farewell to the Peacock soap.

All Love

Zucker took to Instagram to express her gratitude for her time at DAYS. Her post included an amazing montage of photos from her time there, which started in 1998 and spanned over 2800 episodes.

“I loved my job,” Zucker wrote. “I loved my friends. I loved my co-workers, but most of all I love all of you. When someone says you are irreplaceable…maybe, but the heart of an individual is not. I gave all my heart and always will. I could never have had this job unless I had all of you. From the bottom of my heart and beyond, I can’t thank you enough for loving to hate Nicole and for loving her again as she changed in life with all of you. Thank you for being a part of my journey. This is an adventure that will live with me forever. Thank you for standing up for what is right.

“Thank you for standing by me,” she continued. “Thank you for acknowledging what this industry so easily takes advantage of. I will forever stand for you. I love you! #womensrights @istandwithari.”

Her fiance, Sean Christian, wrote, “I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!! ❤️ You have carried yourself with GRACE & DIGNITY in what is a painful and perplexing process. 💯 Your CARE and COMPASSION are reflected in your daily ACTIONS, DEDICATION and DETERMINATION to do what is just and right for women, men, animals and humanity. ❤️ This ever evolving adventure called LIFE reveals the TRUE CHARACTER of the world within us and the world around us. ❤️ I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! LET’S KEEP LIVIN’ TALOHA BABY!!”

Martha Madison (Belle Black) replied, “Love this. Love you. *sigh ❤️”

Kyle Lowder (ex-Brady Black) wrote, “What a run. The impact you had and continue to have on millions is immeasurable🙏🏻♥️”

“Love working with you Ari,” wrote Paul Telfer (Xander). “Thanks especially for the kindness and support you gave me when I first started on the show ❤️”

Dan Feuerriegel, who portrays EJ, chimed in, “Love you Ari 🥰”

Because of DAYS filming so far ahead, Zucker likely filmed today’s episode seven or eight months ago, and the scenes just aired. She left the soap after filing a lawsuit against Ken Corday, executive producer; Albert Alarr, former co-executive producer/director; and the soap.
