On Days of our Lives, A diagnosis looms, an ex-husband longs for the woman who got away, and a grieving mother demands justice. Meanwhile, a final move remains unclear as Marlena and her family commemorate the one-year anniversary of John’s death. Here’s your DAYS video preview for the week of May 25-29, 2026.
Key Takeaways
- Chanel faces life-changing biopsy results while Amy demands justice for Sophia.
- Xander struggles with lingering feelings after witnessing Sarah and Brady together.
- Marlena and her family honor the first anniversary of John’s death in emotional scenes.
Poignant Loss
Brady (Eric Martsolf) sits alone fiddling with game pieces on a chessboard, while Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier), dressed in his military uniform, approaches Amy (Shi Ne Nielson) at the pub. “Mrs. Choi,” he greets her. “I’m very sorry for your loss.”
Lingering Love
At the Kiriakis mansion, Xander (Paul Telfer) watches from a distance as Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) shares a tender kiss with Brady (Eric Martsolf). He lowers his head, and a look of sadness comes over his face.
Results Are In
Later, at the hospital, Sarah places an important call to Chanel (Raven Bowens). “The results are back from your biopsy,” Sarah informs her patient. An anxious Chanel asks, “What are they?”
It looks like Sarah wants Chanel to come to the hospital to get them. “You might want to bring Johnny (Carson Boatman) with you,” she suggests. Chanel responds with a slight gasp.
A Mother’s Revenge
Amy is on the warpath and hellbent on revenge for Sophia’s (Rachel Boyd) death. (But is her daughter really dead?) She wants Holly to pay for what transpired and announces exactly what she wants done.
“I want her prosecuted for manslaughter,” declares Amy. Holly (Ashley Puzemis) and Tate (Leo Howard) arrive just as Amy makes her request, and they’re both stunned.
Remembering John
Belle (Martha Madison) joins Brady, who’s still seated in front of the chess game. “There’s still a piece missing,” notes Belle. “It’s a pawn.” A pawn, as in Stefano’s one-time pawn, John Black.
Meanwhile, Marlena pays a visit to John’s (Drake Hogestyn) grave on the one-year anniversary of his death. She sits down on the ground and tenderly leaves a bouquet of flowers on her late husband’s headstone.
