Days of Our Lives Preview: Shawn Accuses EJ of Trying to Steal His Wife — and Look Who Ends up in Bed Together!
Friday, May 20th, 2022
It’s time to celebrate as the Devil has left Salem!
In the latest Days of Our Lives preview for the week of May 23 – 27, new romances are heating up. Read about the details and watch the latest preview below.
Li and Gabi are raising glasses to one another, which can only mean Kristen dropping in on the DiMera shareholder meeting turned the tides in Gabi’s favor. It looks like it will take a lot more scheming to get her out.
Ava and Jake finally move from friends who share a bed, to something more. Rafe and Nicole make love, as do another surprising couple. Li tells Gabi that he needs to settle down with a nice girl, but Gabi says she doesn’t match that description and to two get passionate.
Shawn has enough problems as is what with Jan Spears carrying his child and wanting to name it Britney Spears Brady. Now he’s worried EJ is trying to steal Belle, shoves the DiMera, and accuses him of it. Well, it appears Shawn isn’t wrong, as later EJ is shown pulling Belle into a kiss!
What say you Days fans, are you excited about any of the new prospective couples teased in the preview? And don’t forget to celebrate the end of Satan just like Susan!

<p>Kevin and Jana were two deeply damaged people who shouldn’t have worked. But for a time, they did. And hey, we get it. When you find someone who accepts all your flaws, you don’t let go. Ever. Even if it means kidnapping him at gunpoint and locking him in a closet.</p>

<p>We feel like sometimes poor Daniel gets overlooked, what with being sandwiched into Lily’s timeline between STD-spreading internet predator Kevin and love of a lifetime Cane. But back when they were married, Daniel and Lily were pure fire. And not the kind she was feeling after Kevin.</p>

<p>Were John and Jill a great couple, or just great characters who should’ve been a great couple? Who’s to say? Besides us, that is. But if anyone was a power couple, it was these two. Plus, their second marriage gave us Billy! (The less said about their first union, during which Jack slept with stepmom Jill, the better.)</p>

<p>Kay’s love for the dashing Rex Sterling was so deep, she didn’t even care when she learned he was actually a homeless con named Bryan Romalotti (Danny and Gina’s dad) hired by Jill to, er, fall in love with her nemesis. We guess, congrats, Jill? That showed <em>her</em>.</p>

<p>Ryan was still married to Victoria when he met slightly older widow Nina, but she gave him everything his young wife couldn’t — like one hell of a sex life! We guess there’s something to be said for experience. It was certainly enough for Ryan to fall head over heels and ditch his teen bride! </p>

<p>Bedding and marrying your groundskeeper may be a bit of a faux pas in high society, but if we were Traci, we would’ve done exactly the same thing with hunky Brad! Their two marriages weren’t that succesful, but we always rooted for these two. Then they lost Colleen, and Brad died and went to play with the angels. By which we mean Los Angeles. </p>

<p>As the chief of police and district attorney, Paul and Christine should have been Genoa City’s ultimate power couple. Who would have dared stop them? Plus, their selfie game was on point. But she’s since stepped down and Paul has, well, vanished, so we’ll have to content ourselves with memories of the pairing that always just seemed right.</p>

<p>OK, yes, Victoria was only 16 when she fell for handsome 20-something Ryan, but they really were a sweet couple. Even if she felt pressured to sleep with him. And ended up with an AIDS/pregnancy scare. OK, this is sounding worse and worse… but they really <em>were</em> a popular couple!</p>

<p>Lily may have moved on with Billy, but for some fans, there simply is no life after Cane. It just didn’t get much better than “Lane.” Then again, he <em>did</em> have a bad habit of lying to his wife/faking his own death without telling her, so we say you do you, girl. </p>

<p>Lovers or siblings? That’s not exactly a question most couples must answer, but in Genoa City, it’s more common than you might think. And once they did answer it, Kyle and Summer (then Hunter King) wasted no time in launching into the supercouple stratosphere. Lola might disagree, but where is she again? That’s right. Not with Kyle.</p>

<p>Few shined as brightly as Sharon and Adam when they were together. And that’s no small feat seeing as how they fell in love <em>after </em>Adam stole newborn Faith and gave her to Ashley! Granted, Sharon kicked him to the curb once she found out what he did, but we’ll be darned if she’s not still drawn to him like a moth to the flame!</p>

<p>Yes, Hilary and Devon began their relationship while she was married to his father, Neil, but if adultery was a deal-breaker, half this list would be wiped out. Then again, we’re pretty sure they were the only ones who were sneaking around behind a <em>blind</em> man’s back. Shh, if you you don’t make a sound, he won’t know you’re there. </p>

<p>As the show’s first LGBTQ supercouple, Mariah and Tessa have a lot of expectations to live up to. And despite some bizarre sidetracks (who had Stitch kidnapping Mariah on their 2021 Bingo card?), they finally managed to make it down the aisle and begin their lives as a happily-wed pair.</p>

<p>If any couple defined the show’s early years, it was Chris and Snapper. She came from the show’s wealthy core family, the Brookses; he, from its working-class clan, the Fosters. It was a real Romeo and Juliet moment — if Romeo was a busy medical student putting himself through school who never seemed to have time for Juliet. But hey, neither of them drank poison and died!</p>

<p>You know you’ve hit the couples jackpot when you get an exotic wedding, and by the time Christine and Danny shared their Hawaiian nuptials, they were about as big as it came. But between the life of a rock star, psychos like David Kimble, creeps like predator-era Michael and schemers like Phyllis, these two never had it easy. But it was sweet while it lasted!</p>

<p>There’s only one woman who ever gave Nikki a run for her money in Victor’s heart: Ashley! Their marriages may have been short, but the genuine affection they had for one another has endured. Even stealing his sperm for a secret baby wasn’t a deal-breaker! Heck, for Victor, that’s practically foreplay.</p>

<p>They may not be the perfect couple, but whenever Nick and Phyllis are together, they’re red-hot. In fact, we doubt there are many places in Genoa City these two haven’t had sex. It wasn’t just the physical, though, that made these two click. At least, we’re pretty sure it wasn’t — not after three marriages! </p>

<p>The thing you have to remember is that when Victoria and Billy (here, Billy Miller) first got together, they were more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Tipsy monkeys, even. Her dad’s never-ending hatred of “Billy-Boy” couldn’t derail their love, but the loss of daughter Delia and Billy’s self-destructive behavior eventually did. </p>

<p>It doesn’t get much better than one of the show’s O.G. supercouples, Lorie and Lance. Dashing and debonair, Lance swept Lorie (and us!) off her feet. Plus, he had a crazy mom who hid her face behind a veil and killed herself to frame Lorie for murder, and few things can spice up a relationship like that!</p>

<p>Is it any wonder Michael and Lauren dance so well together? She’s a reformed mean girl and he’s a reformed bad boy. OK, he’s a reformed sociopath, but the point is, if these two could turn their lives around to become a loving, stable couple, anyone can!</p>

<p>Sometimes we feel that the only thing that kept Jack and Nikki from becoming <em>the Young & Restless</em> supercouple was Victor. Then again, since Jack getting revenge on The Mustache was the only reason he first wooed Nikki, we’re kind of getting into a chicken and egg sitch here. But, hey, love is love, and the feelings between these two were real!</p>

<p>It’s hard not to get a little choked up looking at these two. Neil and Dru were two of the greats, finding their way back to each other over and over again until Drucilla’s death. For years, fans held out hope that she’d someday return and rekindle their love, but when we lost his portrayer, the late Kristoff St. John, that chance sadly passed.</p>

<p>Jack and Phyllis’ relationship obviously began when she mistook him for a luxury office chair. They’ve fallen in and out of love repeatedly, and at one point believed they shared a daughter in Summer. (Thankfully, that proved not to be true, or Kyle and his current Mrs. wouldn’t have made this list!) Even when Jack and “Red” are apart, we can’t help rooting for them to reunite!</p>

<p>High school sweethearts don’t come any sweeter than these two, who for years managed to overcome the slings and arrows of cruel fate in order to remain one another’s true loves. And while eventually they would go their own way, many fans can’t help but think of them as following in the footsteps of Nikki and Victor. Speaking of whom… </p>
