Salem is spinning in chaos once again, and this time it’s a bombshell that no one—absolutely no one—saw coming. In a shocking twist that

has fans of Days of Our Lives buzzing nonstop, Sarah Horton is reportedly pregnant… and the father is Brady Black. The revelation has sent

shockwaves through the tight-knit community, raising eyebrows, breaking hearts, and igniting speculation about whether a whirlwind wedding might be coming as early as March 2026.

 

 

This storyline has already been labeled one of the biggest shockers of the year, promising ripple effects that will shake Salem to its core.

A Scandal That Rocks the Core of Salem

Sarah Horton has endured her share of heartbreak, betrayal, and complicated relationships. From messy love triangles to tragic losses, she has battled through every painful twist life could throw at her. Brady Black, meanwhile, has been trying to rebuild his life post-Kristen, post-chaos, and post-every emotional disaster that has haunted him for years.

 

 

Nobody expected these two to collide in such a life-altering way.

According to insiders close to the storyline, the pregnancy news hits Salem like a meteor. Not only does it catch Sarah off guard, but it leaves Brady reeling. Their connection—something neither of them intended to form—now threatens to reshape their lives, their families, and several ongoing storylines across town.

Who Knew First?

Rumors suggest that Maggie may be one of the first to notice something is “off” with her daughter. As always, Maggie’s intuition is razor-sharp, and she senses Sarah is hiding a major secret. Meanwhile, Brady confides in Marlena, who tries to help him process the whirlwind of emotions: guilt, confusion, fear, and—unexpectedly—hope.

Because the truth is… part of Brady wants this baby.

But does Sarah?

How Will Xander React?

One of the biggest questions looming over this bombshell is Xander’s reaction. Despite their turbulent breakup and painful past, Xander still cares deeply for Sarah. Fans are already anticipating one of the most explosive confrontations of the year, as Xander finds himself blindsided by the news.

Will he be furious? Heartbroken? Determined to win Sarah back?
Or will he spiral into his darker tendencies?

Whatever his reaction, one thing is clear: Xander won’t stay silent.

Brady’s Complicated History With Fatherhood

Brady has never had a simple path when it comes to being a father. From custody battles to heartbreaking losses, he has been repeatedly tested. Another child brings not only joy, but potential complications with Theresa, Kristen, and Eve, who share long histories—and grudges—with Brady.

Theresa in particular may play a major role here. Her protectiveness over Tate and her lingering feelings for Brady could collide in a dramatic, fiery showdown over how this pregnancy will affect their family dynamic.

Kristen, too, is expected to react in the most volatile way possible. With her obsession for Brady never truly gone, the news of him becoming a father again—especially with someone as beloved as Sarah—might push her toward another dangerous spiral.

Is a Rush Wedding on the Horizon?

The rumor mill has been turning nonstop, and fans are asking the big question:

Are Sarah and Brady headed for a quick wedding in March 2026?

Several insiders hint that the writers may use this pregnancy as the catalyst for a major spring wedding storyline. A rushed ceremony—full of tears, tension, and Salem-level drama—could be the centerpiece of the March sweeps.

But the questions are endless:

Is Sarah ready to marry again after everything she’s endured?

Does Brady truly love her, or is he acting out of obligation and fear?

Will Xander or Kristen interrupt the ceremony in classic soap-crashing fashion?

And most importantly—will the wedding even happen?

Because in Salem, nothing stays calm for long.

The Pregnancy Changes Everything

Regardless of how the romance unfolds, the pregnancy itself is set to alter every corner of Salem. It affects Maggie, Marlena, Theresa, Kristen, Xander, Tate, and even Nicole—who has always had a complex emotional connection to Brady.

The baby could unify families… or tear the
