In the Friday Days of Our Lives Recap, tensions run high as family secrets and lies take center stage. Chanel faces mounting pressure as she’s implicated in EJ’s shooting. Meanwhile, Xander spirals out of control, threatening his family as his battle for custody over Victoria intensifies. Read on for the details!
Chanel’s Shocking Questioning
Chanel’s day took a dark turn when she was called in for questioning over EJ’s shooting. Paulina stood by her daughter’s side, insisting on a lawyer, but Chanel, confident she did nothing wrong, chose to speak without one. The shock came when Jada revealed the incriminating footage showing Chanel allegedly threatening EJ’s life.
Chanel was adamant she didn’t remember saying such things, leaving the investigation at a standstill. Still, with the video evidence stacking up, it wasn’t enough to clear her name. The pressure continues to mount as she tries to piece together the truth behind the footage.
As Chanel tries to convince everyone that she wasn’t capable of hurting EJ, Johnny also struggles to reconcile his belief in his wife’s innocence with the mounting evidence. Paulina too remains convinced that Chanel didn’t shoot EJ, but Johnny’s concern grows as the investigation tightens. The question lingers — who really shot EJ? The mystery deepens, leaving fans on the edge of their seats.
Days of Our Lives Recap: Xander’s Breakdown
Meanwhile, Xander continues to spiral out of control, particularly in his struggle for custody of Victoria. He confronts Maggie and Sarah, furious about his daughter potentially being taken away. Tensions escalate when Maggie tries to put things into perspective, but Xander, blinded by his fear of losing Victoria, refuses to back down. His actions threaten to push him further from his family, and his obsession with holding onto Victoria at any cost seems to be tearing apart his already fragile relationships.
When Xander demands to know where Victoria is, Maggie’s answer brings him to a breaking point — Xander believes they’re all conspiring to take his daughter from him. In the ensuing confrontation, he threatens Maggie, Sarah, and even his own family, claiming he’s “the monster his father made him.” The tension only intensifies as Maggie remains firm in her stance, telling him to get over his past before it destroys his future.
A Brewing Storm
The storm brewing between Xander and his family seems far from over. While Sarah fights for a chance to take Victoria away, her alliance with Philip adds another layer of complexity. In their tense meeting, Sarah offers Philip a deal to help her get Victoria — but with strings attached. If Philip plays along, he might secure the CEO position, but Philip remains wary of trusting Sarah’s intentions.
Meanwhile, Johnny and Chanel’s fight for the truth takes an emotional toll. Paulina continues to support her daughter, but her actions may be seen as complicating things. Will Johnny and Chanel manage to find the truth, or will they become ensnared in a web of lies and misunderstandings?
As the Days of Our Lives Recap concludes, the emotional stakes continue to rise for both Chanel and Xander.
