Mary Beth Evans and Stephen Nichols checked in with fans after another day on the Days of Our Lives set, and what started with jokes about sunglasses and hard-boiled eggs quickly turned into a rundown of Evans’ surprisingly packed schedule. Between grandkids, her husband’s band, a bike trip through France, and one very important ceremony, Kayla’s portrayer has plenty happening away from Salem. Apparently, a week off is only restful if nobody hands Evans a calendar.
Key Takeaways
- Mary Beth Evans revealed she is preparing to officiate a friend’s daughter’s wedding.
- Evans also has a biking trip through France planned with her brother and sister-in-law.
- Stephen Nichols plans to spend the DAYS break with his grandchildren.
- Evans joked that keeping track of her packed schedule would be easier if she actually used a calendar.
- Fans loved seeing Evans and Nichols’ familiar off-camera banter.
Mary Beth Evans Has a Wedding to Officiate
Evans (Kayla) shared the casual dressing-room video on Instagram with Nichols (Steve) after the pair finished working for the day. They joked about Nichols’ dark glasses, his extremely modest lunch, and Evans’ new workout routine before getting into their summer plans. Nichols learned, along with everyone else, that another week off was coming, which was apparently useful information to have.
Evans then revealed the assignment that caught Nichols by surprise. “I’m actually officiating in a wedding, which I’ve been working on a lot,” she said, explaining that the bride is the daughter of her dear friend Marty. Nichols immediately translated that into the slightly more dramatic announcement that “Mary Beth is going to marry a couple.”
Evans admitted she initially questioned whether she was the best person for the job. “When they asked me, I said, ‘What? Me?’ I’m a Pisces. Two fish swimming in different directions. Like, not a good choice,” she joked. Still, she said she had given the ceremony her all and had been working hard to get everything ready.

Mary Beth Evans and Stephen Nichols Share Their Summer Plans
The wedding is only part of Evans’ busy stretch. She also plans to take a biking trip through France with her brother and sister-in-law, while Nichols will spend his week off with grandchildren who live farther away. Evans also plans to watch her husband perform with his band, an outing Nichols promptly complained he had not been invited to.
Keeping track of all this may be the real challenge. Evans admitted, “If I ever wrote anything down on a calendar, it would be so helpful,” while Nichols pointed out that there are apps specifically designed to solve that problem. Evans’ friend Mandy has apparently volunteered to set one up, assuming she forgives Evans’ attempted Southern accent first.
Fans loved another glimpse of the longtime co-stars’ friendship. One follower wrote, “Always love your genuine banter,” while another said, “These vids make my day. 😍” Another summed up the appeal simply: “You guys are still the cutest!”
