"Days of Our Lives" is losing one of its cast members. Ximena Duque is departing the long-running NBC soap.
Duque portrays Blanca, a friend of Adriana (Alma Delfina), on "Days of Our Lives." According to Soap Hub, Duque's last appearance is on Monday, Nov. 21 after first appearing in the program last June.
"Days of Our Lives" also bade a sad goodbye to Theresa Donovan (Jen Lilley) recently, The Inquisitr reported. Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) doesn't know the entire circumstances behind Theresa's departure from Salem but her parents, Kim (Patsy Pease) and Shane (Charles Shaughnessy), and Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston) know.
Victor may be grumpy and have had a testy past with Theresa, but he softened up and even imparted some nice words to her, telling her that he's proud of her and that he's grateful for the sacrifices she made. It appears that Victor would soften up more on "Days of Our Lives" when he finds out that Chloe Lane (Nadia Bjorlin) is pregnant with the child of Daniel Jonas (Shawn Christian) and Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker).
Suzanne Rogers, who portrays Maggie Horton Kiriakis on "Days of Our Lives," confirmed that Victor would turn soft when he finds out the truth behind Chloe's pregnancy, Soaps.com reported. This week's "Days of Our Lives" run will also showcase Adrienne's (Judi Evans) wedding and how upset she is when her groom, Lucas (Bryan Dattilo), fights Justin (Wally Kurth).
Justin tries to stop Adrienne from pushing through with the wedding by telling her that he's still in love with her. This will push the bride to run away and cancel the wedding, leaving Lucas angry but respectful over Adrienne's decision. In future "Days of Our Lives" episodes, Adrienne will grapple with her future with Lucas and reconsider the marriage.
Abigail (Marci Miller), meanwhile, still wants her personal space and will convince her mother, Jennifer (Melissa Reeves), to stay mum about her return. Jennifer agrees but she will also push Abby to solve her problems. Abby admits that she wants to go back to Chad (Billy Flynn) but she is worried that she will complicate things for him. Is Abby doing the right thing by hiding from the person she cares about?
Chad, on the other hand, is becoming intimate with Gabi (Camila Banus). But their happy bubble is about to burst soon because of a difficult situation. Does this situation involve Abby's return? Stay tuned to "Days of Our Lives" this week to find out.
