Patrick Muldoon Drops a Comeback Tease with a Smile
In a lighthearted Instagram video, Patrick Muldoon joked about being lost—until he revealed he was right back in Salem. Wearing sunglasses and flashing his signature charm, he practically confirmed his return as Austin without saying a word.
Muldoon last appeared on Days in 2012. Since then, Austin’s been mostly offscreen, with his name only mentioned here and there. Austin Peck also portrayed the role in past years, but this time, it’s definitely Muldoon taking the lead. His excitement was clear as he closed the video with, “It feels good to be back.”
Days of Our Lives Comings and Goings: Will Austin’s Return Bring Carrie and Noah Too?
Austin skipped John Black’s funeral, claiming he stayed behind with Carrie for their son Noah’s graduation. But this detail might not be random. Noah Reed could soon appear on-screen as part of Salem’s teen group.
This opens a new chapter. Could Austin’s return tie into Noah’s debut? The young Reed could become the latest teen heartthrob, stirring up trouble and romance at Salem High. Austin might also show up to check in on Kate Roberts Brady, his mother, if she’s dealing with legal or emotional chaos. Carrie Brady Reed could also follow soon, reuniting with family and stirring up past emotions. With Muldoon back, all eyes are on the writers to deliver a juicy storyline.
The Days of Our Lives Comings and Goings news suggests Austin’s return is more than just a cameo. Whether it’s for family bonding, new love triangles, or a long-term arc with Noah, something big is brewing.
While exact air dates remain under wraps, Patrick Muldoon’s return has fans buzzing. Salem won’t stay calm for long—not with Austin Reed walking back through its doors. Stick with us at Soap Opera Daily for more updates on Days of Our Lives Comings and Goings and all the exciting shake-ups ahead!
