Days of our Lives Weekly Update: Schemes, Surprises, and Mind Games

Days of our Lives spoilers weekly update for May 17 – 21, 2021, reveal a surprising turn of events, an upsetting piece of news, and an emotional goodbye.

Days of our Lives — The Week Ahead

Kate (Lauren Koslow) may finally be free of Kristen’s (Stacy Haiduk) wrath, but she’s not out of the woods quite yet. In a shocking turn of events, spoilers show Jake (Brandon Barash) and Gabi (Camila Banus) will have to act quickly when they are forced to rush Kate to the hospital.

Ben (Robert Scott Wilson) has been holding out hope that Ciara (Victoria Konefal) will get her memory back and return to him in Salem. He still loves her and knew that he had to let her go. It looks like things aren’t going the way Ben planned when later next week he confides in Claire (Isabel Durant) after getting upsetting news from Ciara. How far will Claire go to try to ease Ben’s pain?

Abigail (Marci Miller) has been wrestling with her emotions all week. Being accused of having something to do with Gwen’s (Emily O’Brien) fall and the baby’s death isn’t easy to deal with. She claims innocence to Chad (Billy Flynn), but the accusations are still there and it isn’t an easy thing to move on from. Next week, she’ll make a decision that will stun Chad and Gabi. She and Chad share an emotional goodbye — but for how long?
