Ever since Jack and Chad brought Abigail back to Salem, there’s been some serious suspicion around her on Days of Our Lives. The ardent viewers would know that she’s actually a fraud working with Mark and is one of the Greene siblings. This revelation gave us a glimpse of her true identity, But it also left us wondering why she’s deceiving Chad and the DiMeras. Let’s see what AnnaLynne McCord, who plays Abigail, has to say about it!
Abigail and Clyde: What We Didn’t Know
Days of Our Lives fans can agree that Mark initially seemed like a nice guy. Plus, Abigail’s fake persona showed signs of genuine guilt. So, what’s the reason behind the act? Well, the recent episode gave us a clue- it’s because of Clyde Weston. After a heartfelt scene between Abigail and Chad, the episode concluded with her receiving a text.
It read, “Why haven’t you gotten Chad back down the aisle? You know what’s going to happen if you don’t.” Consequently, it clarifies that the Greenes are stuck with Clyde, and it might not be voluntary. In a recent interview, AnnaLynne shed some light on her character’s approach to Chad. She explained, “I put a lot of the synergy onto the way she engages with Chad.”
Additionally, the DOOL actress thinks Abigail is a bit more appealing because she is obeying Clyde Weston’s wishes. According to Anna, her character “is under extenuating circumstances.” Clyde is manipulating Abigail, which is why she acts out of character. It’s lucky for her that pretending to be an amnesiac allows her to act differently from Chad’s memories.
McCord also revealed that her character downplays her true self even more to keep Clyde happy and speed things up. Furthermore, Abigail’s ultimate goal seems to be walking down the aisle again with Chad. However, this whole situation is clearly fraught with rising tension. AnnaLynne didn’t spill the beans, maybe wanting to increase our excitement!
But, it’s evident that Clyde is holding something severe over her—and likely Mark and the other Greenes, too. He might be threatening their loved ones, holding someone captive, or making outrageous promises. So, Clyde is not the one to be trusted with, and let’s not forget how unreliable his promises have been.
With Mark meeting Clyde soon, we’ll get more details about what he has on the Greenes. Until then, stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more Days of Our Lives celeb updates! What do you think about Clyde’s sinister plans? Tell us in the comments.
