Days of our Lives was firing on all cylinders for the 60th anniversary week. However, one story left us and fans scratching our heads.
Key Takeaways
- Hurricane Sami blew into town with big news.
- Sami had interactions with all three of her ex-husbands.
- DAYS fans can’t help but wonder why make such a big deal about Sami’s engagement.
Is There More To Sami’s Story?
It was no secret that Sami (Alison Sweeney) would return to town to help celebrate the milestone anniversary of the hit Peacock soap. Having her arrive just as Johnny (Carson Boatman) and Chanel (Raven Bowens) adopted baby Trey was perfect timing.
What doesn’t quite make sense is all the hoopla surrounding her engagement. Not only has Sami been dating the guy for a couple of months, but his name is Dante Vitale. Yes, Sami’s fiancé is related to none other than Ava (Tamara Braun) and her mobster family.
Considering Sweeney isn’t a full-time cast member, putting so much emphasis on Sami’s engagement and making her fiancé related to the Vitale family is a bit odd. Then again, this is DAYS, and nothing is done without reason.
This leads us to believe there’s more to this story, but if it’s going to play out off-screen, why should we care? If Sweeney were coming back for an extended run, it would give DAYS fans good reason to be invested in her engagement.
That’s not the case, though, so we can only assume that something bad is going to happen to Sami off-screen, which will drive an on-screen storyline, perhaps between her exes.
Nothing has been confirmed or even hinted at regarding more to Sami’s engagement story as of now, and that has DAYS fans weighing in on the hot topic.
One fan agreed that things are not as they seem with the engagement, writing on X, “If there’s more to Sami’s engagement than meets the eye, why? She’s not staying so we probably won’t even see how it plays out.”
