Taping Christmas episodes
Soaps.com has learned that child actress Stella Hopton just booked a role on Days of our Lives. (Wonder who that is in the bed on the monitor?) Since the show is taping Christmas episodes, she could be one of the kids at the hospital who Doug or Julie reads the Christmas story to or she might have a bigger role. Either way, she’ll be seen around mid-December. Behind Hopton is Kate Mansi, (Abigail Deveraux DiMera) who is getting made up for her return.
