Days Of Our Lives Spoilers: The Unfolding Kidnapping Drama Of Sarah And Kristen – What Fans Need To Know

Days of Our Lives spoilers and updates tease we received some fresh information from our insider, and this new leak is quite thrilling.

It concerns the abduction of two main actresses on the Peacock soap opera: Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) and Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk).

 

Days of Our Lives' Brady's Not Protecting Chloe From Kristen

 

The question is, how did these women end up together when they hardly like each other; the only thing they share is their love for little Rachel Black (Alice Halsey).

We’re going to explore this. Let’s begin with Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey); she was apart from Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) but still has deep feelings for him.

Sarah is also upset about the stress Rachel Black (Alice Halsey) is facing now that her mother is going to prison and regretted returning Rachel to Kristen after her kidnapping years ago.

 

Who is Days of Our Lives' Sarah Hiding From With Kristen?

 

Meanwhile, Xander’s anger has been a major issue for Sarah; they have been distant for months. Although they are legally separated, that might change very soon, according to our source.

We have information about Sarah and Kristen, both together and separately-so, we will discuss everything; our source says that the relationship between Xander and Sarah evolves gradually, not all at once.

Currently, Sarah is getting closer to Brady Black (Eric Martsolf); Brady is troubled by Rachel and the adoption issues with Tate Black (Leo Howard).

Our source claims that Brady has a crush on Sarah-he is finding reasons to be with her, especially now that Kristen is in Statesville.

Since Rachel loves Sarah, it gives Brady a good reason to spend time with her, and there are rumors that Brady will start to have feelings for Sarah. However, Sarah is not ready to let go of Xander—not at all.

Reunions And Second Chances
Additionally, Sarah’s estranged spouse, Xander, is committing to his anger management therapy; Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) had been assisting him in seeing things, and himself, from a different perspective.

As such, Xander aims to have a genuine brotherly relationship with Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier; he plans to officially sign a document to make Philip co-CEO.

This comes despite the forgery incident involving Vivian Alamain (Louise Sorel) and Philip, which still troubles Xander and affects him negatively.

Furthermore, we witnessed Philip testing Xander by pretending to choke him-this indicates that Philip recognizes Xander’s genuine effort; Philip will encourage Sarah to give Xander another opportunity.

This is crucial because, as per the source, Philip intends to speak to Sarah and inform her that her husband is making significant changes in his life.

A Rocky Road Ahead
Stage one involves Xander forgiving Sarah; although she is upset about Xander beating Philip, it is actually Xander’s anger towards her that is more difficult for them to overcome as a couple.

Xander feels deeply hurt that Sarah hid Philip’s major forgery secret and lied to him directly-Sarah has mentioned that she has forgiven him much more.

This fall, Xander is focusing on his therapy-he is getting closer to Philip and is planning to become more understanding. After that, Xander will officially forgive Sarah for concealing Philip’s lie from him.

However, this does not mean they are reconciling or that their marriage will heal right away. Remember, Xander was so distressed that he sought a legal separation and was prepared for a custody battle.

Philip’s Role In Sarah And Xander’s Reconciliation
Additionally, our source has informed us that Philip will significantly influence Xander’s ability to forgive Sarah and vice versa.

Philip is set to put in considerable effort. Naturally, while he has his part to fulfill, it’s commendable that he is being a supportive brother.

Xander’s anger management sessions with Marlena will provide him with a clearer understanding of his marriage and the issues that arose. He will approach his interactions with Sarah in a more constructive manner.

Turning Points For Salem Families And Victoria’s Birthday Party
It appears that the leak suggests Xander and Sarah’s marriage will improve by the holidays this year. They might be able to celebrate together as a family with their daughter, little Victoria Kiriakis (Amelia and Kennedy Hileman).

If that doesn’t happen, at least Xander and Sarah will have a more amicable relationship as we transition from fall to winter. This week, we witnessed Xander preparing gifts for their daughter’s second birthday.

He even mentioned to Philip that he would apply the skills he acquired in therapy to manage his temper during little Victoria’s birthday celebration.

Kristen’s Prison Stint And Escape Ahead
Now, let’s turn our attention to Kristen’s involvement in the leak; currently, she is on her way to Statesville Prison for a six-year term.

She could have received a lesser sentence of three years or even half that, but Brady intervened and insisted that Kristen face the maximum penalty, which was set at 10 years. Fortunately, she avoided that outcome.

Both Belle Black (Martha Madison) and the previously accused shooter Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman), along with the shooting victim EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel), all advocated for a more lenient sentence for Kristen. They proposed a three-year term-however, the judge ultimately sentenced her to six years.

Kidnapping Drama Ahead
The leak suggests that Kristen will be freed from prison in early 2026, and in connection with this, Sarah has been kidnapped. The leaker mentioned that Kristen and Sarah end up in the same location, confined in a room together.

The leaker also stated that Kristen does not simply escape from Statesville Prison on her own; the same person who kidnaps Sarah is the one who helps Kristen break out of prison.

Since they are stuck together, it seems this person is not her ally or friend-it’s possible the kidnapper holds a grudge against Kristen.

Sarah is taken as collateral damage because she is a doctor, and Kristen, being an escapee, may require medical help.

What’s Next For Kristen And Rachel?
Regarding Kristen’s release from Statesville, it was clear they wouldn’t keep her in prison for six years unless they planned to write Stacy Haiduk out of the show.

However, that’s not the information we’ve received-her conflict with Rachel and Brady is very prominent. It seems she will stay on the show at least until early next year.

We’ve also heard that little Rachel might be offscreen for some time, as she is sent to Bayview due to a mental health crisis, reportedly paving the way for Alice Halsey’s departure.

She portrays Rachel Black but needed a break from Days to work on the Little House on the Prairie reboot, where she has the lead role of Laura Ingalls.

Rachel May Be Aged Up Into A Troubled And Troublesome Teen
Alice Halsey might have concluded her time on Days. If that’s the case, we could see Rachel emerging as a troubled teen, having gone through a swift aging process after her sorority experience, reminiscent of a soap opera plot twist.

It would certainly add a layer of intrigue if Rachel were to return as a genuinely frightening teenager for the others to handle.

By the way, this is from the same source that claimed Rachel shot EJ DiMera (Dan Feurreriegel) back in February. So there’s a very good chance that this leak will be proven a legitimate spoiler.
