Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers tease that Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) could return after Xander Kiriakis (Paul Telfer) and Gwen Rizczcech (Emily O’Brien) find happiness together. Could DOOL set up a complicated new love triangle?
Days fans know Sarah was given a truly terrible end to her storyline. It offered no closure and pretty much made it absolutely necessary for Sarah to return at some point.
Days could’ve had Sarah legitimately get cold feet about marrying Xander and take some time away. The same story could’ve played out with Xander in the aftermath.
Instead, Sarah was kidnapped, drugged and dropped off on a deserted island. To make matters worse, everyone thinks Sarah ran off with Rex Brady (Kyle Lowder) – something that can easily be proven wrong the next time someone from Salem asks Rex about his love life.
Will no one wonder where Sarah is and question her bizarre behavior? Is Maggie Kiriakis (Suzanne Rogers) not asking where her daughter is by now? DOOL writers can’t just leave Sarah stranded on a deserted island for the rest of her life.
This is reminiscent of when Theresa Donovan (Jen Lilley) was forced to abandon her younger son and essentially become the hostage of an obsessed drug lord in Mexico.
Days had no choice but to bring Theresa back – if only to undo that awful exit and offer a bit more closure with a new one.
In other words, Sarah will surely have to make a comeback, even if it’s just to provide a new wrap-up with Xander. Maybe Sarah could be rescued from that island and disapprove of the changes she’s seen in Xander since she’s been gone.
Xander is far from the man Sarah wanted to marry, so she might decide to get a fresh start on her own terms. The show might play around with a love triangle, but Gwen is the better match for this bad boy version of Xander.
Sarah might see that eventually – and Xander may also decide it was too exhausting trying to be the perfect man Sarah needed him to be. Of course, it’s also possible Sarah could stick around and bring out Xander’s soft side again.
It depends on whether the show wants to keep Sarah around long-term or send her packing again – this time in a better way like leaving Salem on her own.
Regardless, Sarah’s exit isn’t something that’ll hold indefinitely. The NBC soap chose a departure that demands Sarah’s return to fix it sooner or later. We’ll provide updates as other news becomes available.
Days of Our Lives spoilers say Sarah will have to resurface down the road, so we’ll see if she can reconnect with Xander or if the magic’s gone.
